Son and I are both Lefty's. I have both (SBR'd) and shoot them suppressed 100% of the time. CMMG was bought as a complete gun. 4.5" barrel and is the model with regular AR lower that runs Endomags. It has run flawless. No complaints.
AR-V was bought as a builders kit. I used a cheap, 4.5" barrel and it too has run flawless. Only complaint is as a Lefty, it is very gassy. Installed an ODIN works secondary buffer/stock assembly and it is much better but still needs improvement on gas to the face. I'm debating going with Maxim RDB buffer for this very reason. Curious as to what you learn.
Only complaint on AR-V, besides gas, is the funky bolt release sliding button. I may install a longer barrel on it purely for aesthetic reasons. 4.5" is short.
