A Sky top version of that would have been something.

The venerable CSL hommage

Only problem with the CSL hommage is they didnt build it. That picture you have posted is the concept that everyone loved & wanted to see.
Unfortunately they built a tarted up M4 instead. Nothing like the concept. Still charged concept money for it though.🙄

Exactly, the one they released is decent but as you say an overpriced tarted up M4. They hit the bulls eye with the hommage and kind of squandered it.
