Cant wait to see the civilian model released, which is rumored to be 2012. Id have to buy through Gallery of Guns though cause berettas warranty blows

Read about it a couple months ago. In my opinion, it's an ugly rifle. Bulky and fat.

ugly, but its 6.5 pound, accurate, reliable, easy takedown, actaully embidextrous and easy to change for when shooting with left handed friends, unique (everybody has a ar-15 at the range i like being different.) Got an actual hanguard to grab, not a full on trainyard special that i need to buy a thoudand rail covers for. I like it, and remember, i used to crap on beretta.

Three magazine releases seems excessive.

It looks like a neat rifle, but I actually agree it's good too much going on. One of the problems with the new C7A2s has been all the extra controls / sling attachments they added getting caught on equipment. I like the idea of ambi controls, but they should be able to be switched over, not doubled up. That charging handle is more what I have in mind (and also super cool).

Excactly, the charging handle is quick and would be great when shooting with my left handed buddies.

If your buddies start whining, just tell them to shut the hell up

Bulky and fat indeed. That's probably why I don't like the polymer guns, all so very chunky.

According to the 9th Parachute Assault Regiment from the Italian Army, the rifle sucks, and its not better than the G36k and Bushmaster M4A3 currently in service.
