I guess I missed the boat. Never had the urge to buy an AR firearm. Shot a S&W once. Didn't get a warm fuzzy feeling.
Larue or noveske are far better than any other brand
Handguns???
Great video, but you left out quite a few. So…where do you think original Bushmaster, Wyndham Weaponry, and Remington Bushmaster fall in the continuum?
Great video keep it up! How do you like the LWRC ?
Ruger MPR fan here. On my 3rd .. don't ask, just know getting rid of the first two was a stupid thing that I regret. The first would put 5 60 grain VMAXes into 0.4 inches at 100 yards repeatedly. Average accuracy for other bullets wasn't that good, but that is GOOD regardless of platform. Current doesn't have any loads that shoot that well but its overall average is better than the first. Middle gun was "ho hum", not bad, just didn't wow me. And these are my only guns with 2 stage triggers. I planned to upgrade but after a bit of range time I think I like them better than single stage at least on this particular platform. The only mechanical issues I've had (failure to fire) turned out to be Nosler factory ammo, not the gun .. also wouldn't fire in a well-proven Rem 700 bolt action. I'm truly not a "black rifle" fan, more into old cowboy vintage stuff, but damn, this is a fun and useful rifle. Every shooter should have a GOOD AR.
If you are talking about AR -15 "rifles" who do you keep showing "pistols"?
Makes your evaluations questionable.
Where do you rate POF USA rifles? Your opinion ??
Sorry, you obviously don't know what you're talking about. Ranking ati higher than bear Creek and Anderson? Ati receivera crack under dry fire….
I bought myself a sig m400 have over 500 rounds threw it. Just wondering how you rank it? This was my first ar don't think it will be my last.
Having no experience with AR platform, a friend convinced me to go with Bear Creek. The first upper, a .300 Blackout, worked fine. Shoots okay. No problems.
The second upper would not cycle. Turns out the barrel wasn’t drilled for gas. Wouldn’t hit where I aimed.
The third upper was a .22lr. It refused to feed until I polished the ramp. Then it worked most of the time. Accuracy poor compared to a 10/22.
Gave up.
You totally side skirted geissele. Must be one that’s never come across your bench because they don’t break.
Woah woah. I’ve go through a couple cases a month of 556 or 223. My handguns like my shadow systems had over 10k rounds through the MR920 combat optic. They overhauled the barrel, trigger (the trigger safety spring went out from being pulled so many times) and a new guide rod and spring.
I try not to put that many rounds through my nitride 416rss barrels but some of us aren’t new to this. We own our own gun This angels and but ammo by the cases at a time.
My geissele super duty mod 1 the 16” is as a bday gift from retailer/manufacturer and my 12.5 I paid for. $1600 for a geissele to me, is worth it.
If someone paid $1200 for a 4140CMV barrel rifle… that sells in 4150CMV for $396. I’ll have to say, he is dumb.
I have been lucky z
So far with my PSA AR15 s and my Bear Creek uppers
Oh my goodness you put diamondback next to ATI ouch
I love my BCM RECCE 16. It's a true, go to war, rifle.
I don't own it but what about the over priced wilson combat? Good call on the rugger.
I dont care whst anybody says, my Anderson works great. Showing handguns while talking bout ARs is weird.
Wondering if you have any opinion on windham weaponry?
Daniel Defence! Sig Sauer and Del-Ton are pretty good too!
What about the iwi zion
Where the Blackout Dynamics AR?
Preban m4 and or a2 colt also sw 15 mp came with a 2 stage. Would be my choice if i had
My son carried an FN M4 in iraq and Syria. FN never makes any list.
Windham Weaponry 20" Government model rifle has never missed a beat but the trigger puller has 😅
Maybe Anderson was a bit undersold. My best is my 50-plus-year-old Bushmaster. Excellent rifle. I'm not sure of the newer Bushys, though. Good video.
I love my Sig M400 snakebite AR15
My 1979 Colt AR-15, 20", 1:12 twist, CMV Pencil Barrel, 1/2" grouping w/ 5 touching @ 100yds, 55 gr FMJ. 3000 rds + and still going strong. NO FTF or FTE.
Now the truth, most shoters can't tell the difference. I'd even say for the average shooter who wants a AR 15, buy a PSA and move on.
No Colt? Have a HBAR Competition that has never missed a beat. A bit in the heavy side compared to a lot, but a SWEET shooter.
Wow! you pronounce Prescott properly.. must have been there.
Knights, LMT,DD, are great but what about HK my #1 or LWRC my #3. And Ruger is the new Anderson. The new Ruger Harriet rifle is an Anderson with Ruger stamped on it. Ruger definitely not one of the 3 I would keep.
Where is the Colt?
Please show the gun you're talking about not a 1911 when talking about the AR-15.
What about Colt?
Poorly constructed video
I don't think Anderson is in business any more…
I have two home-built AR's, Aero lowers & Aero uppers.. However, one of them has a Noveske BCG and the other one has a BCM BCG. High end where it matters.
I don't care what the haters say. I love my PSA!
A few years back I was at a 3 gun shoot one of the guys had his fancy AR that keep jamming on him , told him you have a 750 dollar AR with a 1000dollar Holograph site and your to Damn cheap too buy a little WD40 to lube the damn thing, LOL
Geiselle Super Duty
Try and find a Del-ton sport. They are out of buissness now because of covid but best $600 you'll spend on a AR-15 if you can find one.
