I had a friend ask me about CMMG last week and I really did'nt have an answer for him.  Can anyone school me?  How does CMMG rate against some of the other major players?  Thanks for any input. -jd

Upper mid level. When they're on their game they put out a decent product. Some of their gear has not been so hot, though. Their QC & CS used be less than desireable. Not sue if that's changed recently. I hope it has.

I can't speak for their lowers, but I have an upper form them and have had no issues with it and I am planning on using another one for another build.

2 lowers and one upper.  No complaints.

I have 3 of their complete uppers and a CMMG lower I built with their LPK.

Everything I have has great fit and finish and runs perfectly.
My M4gery eats everything I feed it.
No complaints here.

At one point 4 or so years ago they were the flavor of the month.  This was when mid lengths were first catching on and I got one from them, have loved it.  I think they suffered some growing pains and had some issues but for all I know they are back on track.  I have friends that have bought some of their 22 stuff and been very happy with it.

My next upper is probably going to be their Sierria 22 lr.

Right above Daisy.

 
Does this AR I just built make my butt look big ?

I used one of their Med-Com Dissapator barrel assemblies for my Dissy build.  No issues with it at all.

I also run one of their .22lr conversion kits and it's been great.

I have a CMMG 9mm upper with a 10.5" barrel that I bought used on the EE back in '07. It is super accurate and so far it's reliable with the same Gold Dot ammo I use in my Sig. For plinking I shoot a lot of Blazer aluminum cased ammo and it's not 100% reliable with that ammo, but I think it's mainly an issue with the ejector. May be an apples to oranges comparison, but it's the only thing CMMG that I have experience with.

It's like someone mentioned in an earlier post, they were the flavor of the day a few years ago. I came so very close to buying a CMMG 6.8 upper back in late 2006 but I never did.

This.  I have one of their complete lowers.  It's high shelf and has a very nice finish.  Has been 100% for me.  At one time I had an 18 inch middy upper on order from them to match the lower, but this was when they were one hot ticket and CMMG seemed to have outgrown their capacity.  I waited a few months then cancelled the order.  I would by from them again now, but they have really paired down their offereings from what they once were.

I have a complete CMMG A2 rifle and I love it.  I started with the lower then the upper said what the hell and built the entire thing from CMMG parts as money and time allowed.  Took about a year to do and I have no complaints.  It was a fun little project.  It shoots great too and is my favorite rifle to take to the range.  I am a sucker for open sites on a rifle.

I like the stuff I've gotten from CMMG. I've used a couple of their 9mm uppers, can't say I've had any problems with them.

I've had good luck with their rimfire conversions over the years-can't speak about their other products though as I don't own any (aside from several CMMG branded rimfire mags).

The couple of times I've had to contact them with questions they have been prompt, professional, and courteous

Have a 14.5 upper. My goto gun. Zero problems with it & shoots everything.

My 11.5" Gov't profile upper has run like a champ so far (2K rounds) and eats everything I feed it.  I also run a Spikes conversion in it with no issues other than the usual filth.

My CMMG has been great. They seem to have a little bit of play between the upper and lower. If you have any questions their CS can be hard to get a hold of. That's from my experience.
