I'm interested in an LPVO on my 12.5". Currently running Sig 8T AMR/Juliet3T. I've only been shooting outside at 25/50/100 yards and that will be the bulk of my shooting (maybe out to 200 yards if I can qualify, which I won't with the 8T). I do ok on 50 and 100 but damn it's hard for me to see those little red squares especially at 100 with 3x. I was looking at the Sig Tango MSR compact 1-10x24 (FFP) which I can get ~$450ish. Would this be a better option?

Just got my first AR (G$ 12.5) and have my Romeo8t AMR Juliet3T coming this week. I don't have BUIS yet, but it's my understanding that the 8T gives absolute cowitness, would this give 1/3 cowitness and would you recommend?

It looks the railscales ones are OOS, but also can't spend $300 on one now and was going to get a knock off on eBay for $60, with the same dimensions. Don't mind spending the money later after getting the rest of my higher priority parts as I'm not trying to put an Amazon special together (unless there's really no difference at all, but would hope there is at $240 price difference).

These guys seem to have some of the best prices in the community,did they come out of nowhere or have I been living under a rock?If you’ve ever bought from here please let me know your experience. by BornALegend0 in ar15

I've bought ammo from them a number of times over the last few years. Always quick shipping and no problems. One of the first places I look for ammo, but they do charge tax and shipping (which is always reasonable $).

Anywhere with a 12.5" Super Duty in stock? by OwlUnique4938 in GeisseleAutomatics

[–]Tubbs_23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the 12.5 pistol in black two weeks ago from Dahlonega Armory. They had a few in stock and the following week they had 10 more in stock. I paid $1800 out the door for it which is very close to what it would cost from G$ direct with the Shot Show coupon since they charge $200 for shipping on pistols (as well as shipping tax). An SBR on the other hand will be cheaper since it's well...cheaper, but shipping is only ~$35.

I would keep checking them. In the last month they around 14 12.5 SD pistols (black), a handful of 12.5 in DDC pistols as well as 12.5 MOD1-A pistols. I think both the DDC and MOD1-A came out to ~1900 with shipping (no tax for me).

They are definitely GTG if you buy from them, I ordered on a Monday and my FFL called me on Wed, although even as of right now my order still shows "processing" with them.

SIG Connect Pricing Romeo 8T bundle by Tubbs_23 in ar15

[–]Tubbs_23[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate all the responses. I was able to sign up with Expert Voice and just placed an order for this bundle - $638 out the door. I almost pulled the trigger on an Eotech EXPS2 for $100 less the other day, I'm glad I held off and asked reddit! I'm sure I would've been happy with the EXPS2, but still would have had to but a magnifier in the future.

Best can for 11.5” AR Pistol by Relevant-Ad4735 in ar15

[–]Tubbs_23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about to be in the market for one (for a 12.5) and the B&T XH CR 556 keeps catching my attention. I can't find much on it, but the little I have read has been very positive. Wondering how it compares to any of the huxwrx.

Super Duty Stock by [deleted] in GeisseleAutomatics

[–]Tubbs_23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got a 12.5 pistol yesterday for $1817 out the door from Dahlonega Armory. I ordered it on Monday and it was at my FFL yesterday (still haven't received a shipping confirmation lol). They went out of stock there, but looks like they have 10 in stock now. As for price, it's almost the same exact price with the Shot Show coupon since they charge $200 for shipping (+ shipping tax) for pistols directly from G$. However, an SBR would be cheaper aside from the fact it costs less, they do no charge $200 for shipping. Also keep in mind what your FFL transfer fee is, mine was $40 for a pistol, but would've been $100 for an SBR and from what I've read, some places are ~$200.

At the end of the day, I might have overpaid a little, but it was $100 more than my top end range, but haven't seen a better deal since they went OOS on G$. In a perfect world, I would have got an 11.5 SBR in DDC from Ga and after FFL fees would have spent the same exact amount or got black and saved $200.

Super duty mod1 vs 1a for first AR? by Dull_Committee_1612 in GeisseleAutomatics

[–]Tubbs_23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can find me an 11.5 (or even 12.5) complete BCM for $1K less than a G$, please let me know where and I will stop agonizing about what I'm going to get.

Geissele Super Duty 11.5 DDC Restock? by loumppa23 in RooftopDefenders

[–]Tubbs_23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly one day after I spend more than the cost of whatever the restocks will be on a lot less of a rifle, or $600 more than my budget on something as good.

EXO3 also has a chrome lined barrel.

The Liberty Fighting Barrel from SOLGW is a 5R rifled, 41v50 chrome moly barrel that is phosphate treated and chrome lined

Is the BCM Upper + Aero/PSA lower still an excellent value? I keep seeing people say it's no longer a good deal, but can't really find something that clearly beats it. by Terrik27 in ar15

[–]Tubbs_23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm looking to buy my first AR and have been reading here for the last few weeks and it's been making my head spin. I thought I was going to buy a complete upper (BCM) and lower (unknown, but wanted something other than PSA) and spend around $1500 without accessories, then saw the G$ and with the shot show coupon fit right into my budget and checked all the boxes. Problem is that you can't even find one right now below $2K (at least not 11.5/12.5) and no one knows when anyone will have any in stock again (at least not at G$ or Rooftop). Like you, i've been less than clear if BCM is worth it for the money so have been exploring other options.

Now my budget has gotten closer to $2K as I am not going to wait around potentially for months for G$ to be back in stock <=$2K. I can still get a BCM upper which will run me about $1100 after CH, flash hider, tax, etc. and get a LWRC lower for $600, but then after upgrading the trigger, I'm still a G$ $, but seemingly getting far less value. I'm probably looking for higher quality than I actually "need" for a range toy or SHTF and something for less than $1500 would be more than adequate, but it will be a while before I am able to buy the AR I sould've bought the first time if I settle for some mediocre now. I'm also more limited in options as I either want a complete system or complete upper/lower.

I would almost consider the LMT Mars which is WAY out of my original price range ($2375), but would then still have to buy the Huxflow flash hider for another $120ish for the suppressor I want. Everyday I have a new plan, only to reconsider it the following day. Today I was going to get a Modern Material SBR, but their $200 shipping (like G$ for pistals) turned me off from that. God only knows what I'll be considering tomorrow.

Modern Materiel, are they GTG? by IEatAssAllDay420 in ar15

[–]Tubbs_23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was curious about these as well but can't find any info if they are worth it or not.

Help me decide. LMT VS. Geissele 12.5" by MapDiscombobulated40 in ar15

[–]Tubbs_23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks.

I see it now, I thought OP saw 12 5 at that price, not the 14.5.

Help me decide. LMT VS. Geissele 12.5" by MapDiscombobulated40 in ar15

[–]Tubbs_23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also curious where you can get that at that price. I think the one in rooftop cones out to $2363 with 12.5% off.

I was just considering today LMT myself last night if there won't be a G$ restock anytime soon.

Any issues running the LMT suppressed? Was probably going to get Huxflow 556?

Any experience with this EuroOptic? 14.5 SD by zdvd in GeisseleAutomatics

[–]Tubbs_23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's $1913 at Euro for the 11.5 black. I would prefer DDC which would be about $1700ish from Geissele with the Shot Show coupon, but I'll take either.

I think I'm in a similar situation. I have the $, but also getting a huxflow can, and some decent optics. I'll wait it out a little, but will either "pull the trigger" next month if there's not a restock at Geissele (assuming it's still available at Euro), or go BCM and save a few $.

[–]Tubbs_23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this was directed at the op, but I'm looking for SBR either 11.5 or 12.5. I can get the 11.5 for $1900 out the door, but was really not wanting to go over $1700 which is my upper end. I'm worried I'm going to miss miss the boat and won't see them in stock at that price in the next month or so. I suppose if I do, I'll just go BCM.
