as for their lowers, i think they're gtg. it's kind of hard to mess those up since the underlying manufacturers are fairly limited in scope for the various brands
i would buy a psa over a ruger lel
Just sayin for example
but their premium series are gucci, FN barrels, decent rails, only problem is poor qc, you'll sometimes get canted gas blocks, poor staking, etc
if you're willing to work on your guns they're gtg
especially the premium uppers with the geiselle rails, the complete upper is less than the retail for that rail and barrel
i like my Ruger guns. high quality, imho. although, i don't buy their AR platform guns
i buy their revolvers, bolt guns, and obviously the 10/22
their .22 stuff is really all that's competitive on the market anymore imo, but i don't keep up to date with new products they're making
but definitely avoid their ARs
their bolt hawkeyes are controlled-feeds
i don't know. internet reviews look pretty good in the unbiased blogs i can find
failures to feed, shortstroking, poor tolerance on parts, short barrel life, terrible finish even on internal parts like burrs on firing pins, bolt catch not working, and early ones had out of spec buffer tubes that could cause the bolt to get stuck back and possibly crack the lower receiver
some of the ruger specific problems
main reason to avoid them is just because they're pretty expensive for what you get
sounds pretty generic. i mean the reviews overall seem favorable
yeah, but you have to remember that most people don't *run* their rifles
they shoot a couple hundred rounds at a flat range and bring back glowing reviews
well, i don't buy their ARs because if i'm going to buy a high dollar one, i go with other brands. i have a few from Stag Arms that are well-built
the reviewers i looked at run their rifles
stag is gucci
yes
What is yalls go to weapon in terms of melee or CQC?
chainsaw
AR
hi-point
All varied answers
lol i didn't even see your question below the meme pic
Chainsaw is one of the worst zombies weapons, change my mind
AR is the superior melee weapon, change my mind
CQC, i normally keep a loaded .22lr rifle around. but with the way things are atm, i keep a loaded AR-15 with RDS, flash light, and 3x flip-up magnifier around until everything has blown over
(i'm talking about home defense... not sure if that was your question)
I was talking more melee weapons, but that's a nice set for inside
my melee is gonna be a kbar and a breaching tool
Breaching tool?
yea
My melee is gonna be a trench shovel
Okay Krieg
What do you mean by breaching tool?
