I got a coupon I need to use before the end of March. I've always wanted a Geissele rifle because they are well made and they are also made in my home state. It was something I would pick up one day. With this coupon I feel the sudden urge to get one. For some reason I have my eye on a 14.5" Super Duty in OD Green.
Talk me into getting one. Tell me why I need it now instead of waiting to get it someday in the future. |

The price will only go up. I bought one when the Black Friday release happened in 2019.

I was going to buy some parts this past Halloween's Blemula sale but the items disappeared from my cart as I was checking out. I don't need another rifle right now but I'd hate missing out on a good deal with this coupon. |

Do it! An ODG SD is on my short list of complete rifles if funds ever become available. I just wish they still made 18" in 5.56. As it is I'll have to piece one together unless something changes.

I purchased mine on a black Friday sale for $1300. It's the most accurate ans reliable AR I've owned or built.
I coyote/deer hunt with it, and snowshoe with it 5-6 days a week. This thing has gotten used. A couple no bull-shit stand outs for the Super Duty. Accuracy. This thing shoots. 16" barrel version, and everything from my 50gr Barnes VG handloads to black hills 77gr TMK shoot under an inch. Shitty ball will usually produce 1-1.5" groups repeatedly stable from a bench using the Trijicon CredoHX 1-6. To me as a duty type rifle this is exceptional. I know this is a wierd one, but the nanocoating they used is slick as snot in the freezing Temps. I've carried alot of ARs alot of miles in snotty conditions, and this one stands out as it always charges, shoots, cycles, locks back and switches just as smooth at -20 as it does at 60. It's also very quiet to carry. The charging handles on ARs actually produce a ton of rattle when stalking/hiking. Not sure if this is specific to the Airbourne CH or the uppers fit and fitment but there isn't any rattle/wobble in my sample. I emphizise sample of one, but this rifle will be my lifelong go-to.

Like the posters above I’ve had nothing but great results from my two geissele rifles. I have a blem 16” that shoots way better then I do even regular ball ammo has been all under 2” at 100. And my 11.5 has been equally impressive would definitely buy again especially with a discount.

I went ahead and bought one. I guess I didn't need much convincing. 14.5" Super Duty Mod1 in ODG. I want to do a dual color build for this one so I'll get some FDE furniture and scope. I'm thinking maybe an Eotech Vudu 1-10x. Can't wait to try it out!

Just ordered an Eotech Vudu 1-10 and a Geissele mount from Optics Planet. I was super excited until I got hit with the Optics Planet curse, "At this time, the following product(s) is not ready for shipment." This is the first time this has happened from Optics Planet. I always thought other people were just exaggerating. It was definitely listed as in stock when I placed the order.
Oh well. |

I am pretty sure this is a 16". Midwest, Larue, A5, SLR, Leupold. Shoots like a house on fire and has perfect balance.  |

With that being said, we are always looking for possible solutions in the future since many people want to stop by. We also hold PRS matches as Geissele Mountain if you are ever interested in coming up and seeing us. You can sign up under the PRS tab on our website.

Make a small lounge area. And a display for all items available. It works great for Esstac. You don’t have to make your back area visible. But you can show things like prototypes that are publicly acknowledged in the up front area. Basic register and point of sale for locals. And please tell your manufacturing side that there is a serious lack of 30mm scope mounts available on the sites I have nothing to put my Geissele scope into. |

I have a Super Duty built from Blemula parts in DDC. Even with the Blemula parts it has been a great rifle. It's a 10.3 SBR and the barrel is not a blem. I also have a URG-I on a SD lower which is also awesome.

It's almost finished. I just need my Geissele scope mount that is backordered for another week or two and then I can mount my Eotech Vudu 1-10. I also ordered an Edgar Sherman sling to try out on this. If it shoots as well as it looks I will be extremely happy.
The new Cloud Defensive switch is pretty sweet. I was able to route the cable through the switch mount for a very nice package. I might slip a ranger band over it to hold the one side down a bit.  Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File |

Just sayin. I have a rifle set up similarly. My rifles that utilize G mounts don’t get iron backups as the G mount isn’t QD. My Larue mounts are being phased out and replaced by G mounts as they become available. The backup irons go in the spare parts box at the same time. |

(Close friends at Sig) and only have an offset 507c which I totally love on pistol too. I have no doubt you have the removal and acquisition of BUS down but it's not something I'd do. Loved the snow on it - where in Maine are you? Just hooked up a fellow Marine brother I've known for 30 yrs with a SD Upper when I grabbed an URGI on Black Friday for like $900. He's in Oakland. My BIL lives on Casco Bay and my nephew owns the best seafood restaurant in the Maine (voted so) in Rockland. I'll buy you dinner there one day and we'll test our Gs! You probably saw this posted on another thread. The URGI came in most unreal color Ive ever seen, and totally conflicted w their DDC lower. Had it cerakoted in Burnt Bronze to a close match. Yeah, I'm creating a dedicated Night Vision setup and like it or not the Hydra is unreal. Balances out all that heavy shit on front end bigtime! Still figuring out the RAID and what switch to use.

I still haven't been able to shoot mine. I'm waiting on my Geissele scope mount to ship and dealing with some minor shoulder surgery. I'm hoping to get my mount in the next week or two so I can shoot it by the end of the month.
I'm kind of wishing I went with an Eotech with magnifier instead of my Eotech Vudu 1-10x. I won't make any changes until I actually get it mounted and take it out to the range. The new scope mount caps that Geissele just released has me thinking about putting a red dot on top of the scope. |

The Vudu series is nice. The 1-10 is a neat scope too. Hope you like it. I was impressed when I looked through one. I ended up buying the mid power one.
