Actually in the MASADA Magpul just took everything single feature of the late versions of G36 except for barrel and trigger group. They didn't invented anything, just took everything good and put it in a thinner body with M16 mags... even if a jackass at Remington placed the cocking lever exactly where I hate to have it on the ACR.
I don't care for body size (actually I prefer it to be a little bit massive) but the M16 mags are a good thing.
Interchangeable barrels are good too but on the field given they might need to cool down before changing that's a really secondary feature, you're better off installing a proper barrel length before going on the field.

SCAR ? Not bad but the only thing it inspired me in regards of the competition is "Meh...".
Plus I find the EGLM trigger system retarded, XM320/AGL design is a LOT more comfy and "wrist-friendly".
