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.

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

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

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.

Testing on noveske barrels has shown they actually perform pretty poorly for the price. Like 1.5 moa with decent ammo. For the price, you can get pro tier barrels that shoot under half moa like a compass lake krieger stainless.
