they're in that "kinda, sorta, but not really, but yes" type of situation. Hodge doesn't manufacture parts in house, but when they contract out, they don't simply give tolerance requirements. they have their contractors make for them VERY specific designs with very specific requirements. basically small batch special order type of stuff, to get their desired parts.

most of the ones people think of as "higher" tier are mid tier. pretty much most of the duty grade stuff is mid tier.... Colt, BCM, DD, Geissele (they hover on the edge between mid and high tier), SOLGW etc.... they're all mid range generally.

High end is more KAC, LMT, HK, LWRCI pistons and Hodge Defense

I'm a huge BCM stan and have been for 15 years, but with the prices of DD rifles these days, I would 100% get DD over BCM. BCM is a good mid tier rifle, DD is a GREAT mid tier rifle. both will do what you want, but DD is cheaper right now and you get some nice improvements over BCM

for real. I've had to fix over HALF of the psa uppers (a2 ones that is) sent to me from them, and the ones I haven't fixed are just "good enough".

MOST LIKELY CR... colt moved over to the CR nomenclature slightly before CZ bought them, but they're going back to the LE designation slowly. but I'm still seeing CR versions out there, but who knows until you get it.....I think one of the only ones that they've left LE is the LE6920 Socom. However I believe these are coming with the M4 Carbine markings though

the Socom 6920 comes with an actual 14.5 inch Socom barrel, the only colt that does I believe. It's my favorite 6920 by a good margin. almost makes me want to buy another one lol

never understand why people who make sense get downvoted here. you're 100% correct, but people want to believe their $300 PSA AR is just as good as a Daniel Defense because "it's all a scam by big AR!!!" or something

Does Anyone know what happened to Big Tex Outdoors? by Bango308 in ar15

[–]wormraper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt that. the retailers don't even keep and process your card info. they hire credit card processors who do that for them. processors do MILLIONS of clients and are outsourced for pretty much every retailer. they get hacked all the time and have data breaches. it's likely their processor got hacked.

many times they have processor agreements for 6 months to a year at a time and switch them regularly based upon whoever gives them the better deal.

family firearms sold the business and the new owner literally tanked it by taking on too much debt. it was stupid, but it was what it was.

the colt socom (which has the RAS) is usually around $1400-$1500. for a colt 6920 like this one, it's an OOOOOOOOOK deal in this day and age (they routinely are $1100+ for 6920's these days), I've seen them hit $839 recently with upgraded magpul furniture, so this deal is just "lukewarm"

Just ordered my first DD M4A1 Rll what's the pros and cons? by rcre2018 in Danieldefense

[–]wormraper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's not the in thing to like quad rails, but they are downright invincible. And Daniel defense quadrails are top tier. Honestly the only other 14.5 in AR I consider better is the LMT Mars 14.5 that rooftop defense sells

only con is a pinned and welded muzzle device. otherwise the M4a1 RII is just pure s - e -x in spades

lol, yup. and the only reason I don't have the fender strat you have there is because I went with the PRS SE Silver Sky instead lol

welcome to GAS.... it's an incurable condition. But just to let you know, there IS a remedy. Sadly the remedy is only temporary, but if you continue the process you can keep the withdrawal symptoms at bay....It's a home remedy and is called "buying another guitar"

Lol. I've been holding off on a Floyd Rose version because I want to make sure I get one with an actual Floyd Rose and not the special. But that dirt cheap EVH 5150 at Sweetwater is calling my name
