re: Official AR-15 thread

Tula ammo is dirty stuff and ANY brand of AR components can have gas system parts that allow more leakage than they should. Leakage won't stop an AR from cycling in most cases but will allow fouling to build up faster in areas that can cause light primer strikes, extraction problems, and feeding issues. That's why being able to propely characterize BCG components is the #1 factor in reliablility, simply spending more money is not.

If you're still looking at DD for some reason you can get the M4V7 with a Geiselle SSA and MBUS Pro for $1620.

That's a $245 trigger, $115 rear sight, $95 front sight. Plus some rail covers.

I still don't think I could ever spend that much on an AR. $1620 is X95 territory.

I shot the Seekins Precision SP-10 for the first time today. Holy shite is it amazing.

I just can't let my wife shoot it or she'll take that one for herself as well.

FYI, and this might be common, but all the same, I ordered from Family Firearms last week and the lingo was exactly the same on the gun I ordered, and immediately received an email stating that it was not in their stock and they would ship it after they got it.

Hopefully, not a long delay, but their ad was a little less than truthful.

You didn't know ahead of time they're drop shippers?

I live about 15-20 miles from what's supposedly the largest gun store in the world (Adventure Outdoors). Their prices aren't very good though.

It's a specific can made by Dead Air.

y'all....?

Was so close to pulling the trigger on an LMT Mws-308 recently.

Could have gotten it for about $2500, which is $1000 or more off list price.

But, alas, cooler heads prevailed and I did not get what I like to call the IDR (instant-divorce rifle).

Will probably always regret it, but I did read it is one heavy SOB at about 10lbs w/no attachments, so that makes me feel better becaue I was going to use it mainly as a hunting rifle.
