I was wondering what you guys think? If you could pic one precision AR to depend on in the field, or just really want, which one would it be? Why? What factors would make your decision? Remman |
The RECCE. With a TA 31 or TA 31F W/ LaRue mount. They are smaller and lighter than the rest and can be used for CQB when needed (W/ the TA 31). The RECCE is just as accurate as the others also. That's going to be my next build, already have the lower being built. I want to wait on the upper until the KAC URX comes out! Then the call to WES@ MSTN and the old credit card balance goes up!LOL! I was also thinking of a LMT MRP 16" with the stainless barrel upgrade. Decisions, UGGHHH.........

Well, since you ask, for my first AWB sunset AR I'm going to build a RecceWannabe... It will be a 16" Bushmaster H-bar turned down to SPR profile ( .850 under the handguards, standard .725 in front of gas block ), with a YHM modular Free-float handguard, YHM gas block/flip up front sight, KAC 600m BUIS, VLTOR telestock, topped of by a TA-31F. Factors: YHM stuff to save money for the important stuff: those ACOGs don't come cheap! SPR profile barrel to save weight Wait...maybe I'm not the Wes you were looking for! But all us Wes's know our ARs! |

I am wondering the same question, which to pick next. I am wondering what might come from LMT after next week. What kind of complete packages they might sell, I saw a recce/spr combo over in the indusry forum from MSTN. It was a mid lenght recce carbine with a spr style brake and in 6.8, thats what I would love to build. |

ZAK, HAVE YOU HAD ANY TROUBLE WITH YOUR PRI GENIII HANDGUARDS? TWO OF MINE CAME LOOSE WHERE THE CARBON MEETS ALUMINUM RIGHT BEFORE THE EASY TAKE OFF NUT. THE EPOXY WORE OUT OR NEVER BONDED. I HAVE HEARD ABOUT THE GUN-KOTE SOLIVENT PROBLEM AND YES MINE IS BLACK... TO ANSWER TO THE POST I LIKE THE MID LENGTH DESIGN ON THE REECE, BUT AFTER SHOOTING MY MK12 MOD0 IN .223 SO MUCH, ID SAY I PREFER 18" AND THE FULL LENGTH GAS TUBE. A SMALLER DIA PROFILE(SPR) WOULD .850 OR EVEN .750 DOWN TO .725(GASBLOCK) WOULD BE PREFERABLE ON A WEAPON YOU SHOULDER FIRE ALOT. MY DREAM WEAPON FOR THE FIELD WOULD CONSIST OF, SOCOM MFG LOWER, JEWEL 2 STAGE, LMT UPPER MRP, LMT ENHANCED BOLT AND CARRIER, MAGPUL 93, FALCON ERGO, 18" SS ROCK BARREL, TS-30A1 OR EVEN SN-4 USOPTICS. TROY SIGHTS, AND A NICE OPSINC MOD 12 SUPPRESSOR. .223 WOULD BE JUST FINE WITH MK262 MOD0.. JUST MY 2 PENNIES |
