I haven't looked at how well their receivers match up but they're known for having one of the best upper receivers out there, and top quality qd optic mounts

Only two minor complaints. They refuse to say what their barrel is made out of, though it's very accurate. They exclusively sell on their website, though they have good discounts from time to time.

When on sale, their trigger is $80 which is fantastic for a trigger similar to geissele but with a slightly longer reset

I kinda feel like stoner's design got bastardized. A rifle may be extremely good quality with a DD government barrel and a KAC quad rail, then maybe an elcan, PEQ, another flashlight, and so on. Then you have a 6 pound rifle except it's 10 pounds with a barrel that's half the length
Confused (id: 205492937423978496)

Maybe not an elcan on a 10.3 but you get the point

Yes, but capabilities. An M16A2 can’t do half of the shit that a kitted out carbine can, fact.
Confused (id: 205492937423978496)
16 May 2020 23:13
Definitely has more capabilities but certain design aspects are regressive, mainly the barrel and rail. The attachments are gonna add weight regardless but some things seem to be contrary to the original philosophy for the sake of either politics or dumbass officers, usually both

What are you implying is contrary to the original philosophy
Confused (id: 205492937423978496)
17 May 2020 00:51
The original philosophy was to have a lightweight yet still fairly powerful rifle that was easy to point, ergonomic, and wouldn't fatigue soldiers like its heavier predecessors. A few design decisions later on were pretty contrary to this, mainly the government profile barrel and the quad rail. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt on the quad rail, that maybe they just weren't able to make an effective mounting system that involved cutting parts from a handguard shape like mlok instead of adding picatinny to it.
Confused (id: 205492937423978496)

We're starting to move back towards lightweight designs now that technology has progressed a bit. The military is just always the slowest to adopt

There could be many reasons. The one I am familiar with is the extractor was worn out. The new unfired round would jam into the casing that was attempting to be ejected.
