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

they're not LEO, but they do extensive testing

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?

Oh the fancy ones

raid the local Fire dept

All about shovel ww1 vibes

Vlad will just beat them to death IG

i might carry a brick for an execution factor

i'm assuming that if i'll have CQC, it'll be during a home invasion at night. i've got night vision coming for turkey hunting (i.e. finding turkey roosts in my very limited time). so, i'll also be saying cool phrases like "Bravo 6: Going Dark" and smiling like Jim from The Office behind a window as i wait for them to break in my door

Hey john where ya from?

They let you Turkey hunt at night? Mad lad

i'm from the Chicago area atm; you?
