About to buy a new AR and have it narrowed down to a Geissele Superduty 16". Started out looking at DD V7 of Geiselle Superduty. Everything I read and look at pushes me toward the Geissele. I could be moved to buy something different but my real question is where should I look online to buy a Geisselle for the best deal. There aren't any dealers anywhere remotely near me with any instock so I am going to be ordering no matter what I decide to do.

You cannot go wrong with either. RIS II is nice, if you go DD.

Eurooptic is the best place I have found for both. Primary Arms is the second place I look.

I picked up a 14.5" Super Duty and my buddy has the 16" heavy barrel Super Duty. His heavy barrel 16" is still very handy.

Honestly what I think makes or breaks a rifle is the optic and trigger. I think if you go high on those you can’t really tell the difference between a high end or a low end except by craftsmanship.

You can dump as much money into a “Gucci” gun as you want, but you likely want gain much other than increased resale value. If you want to be thrifty, get a cheap complete lower from PSA or assemble a lower with decent quality internals, throw a ALG Defense trigger in it and then select the “Gucci” upper of your choice.

Geissele's are solid. I've been very happy with my two.

This is a very good way to get a really functional(precise, smooth, etc) rifle.

As someone mentioned above, the craftsmanship of a complete rifle does give a good warm fuzzy too.

Yeah I have some guns I have put together and they are great but I want to buy a high end AR and not have a home built frankengun.

It may be worth looking around locally to see what feels and looks best to you.
