A perfectly blend of modern and scifi, the BrickArms AC8!

Ooh, I love how stylized this is! There's something extremely unique in the lines to this. Very well made!

I would probably take of the scope when they come to mass production.

I am simply amazed. I cannot wait for this to hit production, and am blown away by it's sheer existence. Great job will, can't wait to get my hands on a few of these.

Woah, I love the ACOG scope on the top of this. I absolutely love the XM8, and I'm happy that you went with a solid barrel instead of the (probably impossible to mold) "duckbill" barrel. Luckily for us this is the Fan Choice Favorite too!

The XM8 I mean the AC8 wins!

Buy Brickarms and save the Galaxy. Purchase guarantees happiness. Would you like to Buy more?

Although I've never been a fan of XM8. I like this. It's a great looking weapon for Sci-Fi and modern. I'm wondering if it would be possible to mold it with holes in the barrel?

By the way, I knew this would win Fan Choice Vote. Maybe someday we'll get my favorite weapon of all time. The SturmGewehr.

Now theres the void between Sci-Fi and Modern. I can see this being extremely popular.

Ya know I saw this gun a few weeks ago and thought "now this would make a nice BrickArm addition" And lo and behold here it is. Will, you are driving me crazy with all these new BA additions. I can't wait to throw a M203 under this.

This looks really cool, I bet it would look better in gunmetal.

The only thing better then brickarms are BA minifigs.

This looks like an XM8, and could definetley replace the G36.

Haha, I like this, it is the ultimate in ergonomics! EDIT: After I look at it, it is a little big... EDIT 2: Is the carrying handle on the top grippable?

This is probably the item I'm looking forward to the most. Now my troops can use an assault rifle other than the AK-47 or G36. ;D Looking forward to it.

Wow! This has to be one of my favorites from the announced batch from Brickworld! It's just such a sleek, smooth weapon. The grippable scope really just adds to the posing possibilites, and overall versatility of the weapon. I love how the stock actually molds to the shape of the minifugres arm, and ends where the shoulder would be, making it able to be held just like the real one. I've got one quick question though: Is it grippable anywhere else besides the scope, and pistol grip? It looks like it could be able to be held by the clip, and by the grip. Am I right in assuming theres more grip-places than the one's you showcased in the pictures?

Trying, and failing is much better, than not trying at all.

I think this is my favourite out of the new weapons, i could really see a modern assault trooper minifig with this.
