I just purchased one of the new Sabre 16" mil spec models & got it setup yesterday. I'll try and post a picture of it soon.
It's not a Noveske by any stretch, but I'm impressed with all of the upgrades for a sub $1000 rifle.

which model did you get?
Posted on 3/30/23 at 10:25 am to finchmeister08
It's this model, but with a nitride barrel instead of the CHF barrel from FN. I tried holding out for 2 weeks, but it still hasn't come back in stock yet so I went ahead and got the nitride barrel instead. Everything else listed in the specs/components is the same

Nitride is fine. I just prefer chrome lining since I'm an old fuddy duddy (just like I still prefer having an A2 FSB).

I wanted to bring this up again. This image perfectly describes what an EOTech reticle looks like.
This is what a Holosun 510 reticle looks like.
You still mean to tell me that the graininess of the EOTech is because of an astigmatism?

I have never seen any eotech reticle look like that and have looked through many. They have a great warranty. Send it back and let them check it out. If you get it back and still not happy then sell it. It will be easy to sell.

Eotechs look a little grainy to me when I have the brightness up too much. I have an astigmatism so I still prefer the holographic over the red dot because the dot in the Eotech is still crisp and round to me. Aimpoint, Holosun and the others look like a comma to me.

Maybe it’s a good thing I didn’t buy it then.
Ended up ordering a Holosun 510 with magnifier for $440. Kinda hoping the store owner will let me look at one of the EOTech he has on order. XPS2-1. I think it’s just a dot without the circle.

If I'm not wearing my glasses the red dot on an Aimpoint looks like the angry sun from Mario 3.

First time AR-15 buyer here.
I’m between the
1. IWI Zion 15 ( $830 )
2. PSA M-LOK MOE EPT ( $600 )
3. Rock River LAR 15 RRAGE 3G ($840)
Thoughts?

I would go with rra. What is rifles intended usage
Posted on 4/2/23 at 2:33 pm to cajun3gunner
Property defense and a SHTF situation. I won’t be an overly frequent shooter.

It’s out of stock on that site. I can get it from Bud’s though.
Posted on 4/2/23 at 3:00 pm to Jake009
Still worth it.

Bought 30 of these a year or two ago after they were posted here. They’re good to go.

Didn't know Global Ordinance made magazines. How are they compared to Duramag's steel magazines?
