[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Thoughts on A.R.M.S. SIR?

Posted: 1/18/2006 11:21:55 AM EDT

I have a Bushy with a ARMS SIR forarm setup that I really like but it seems pretty heavy though. I have decided to go with a middy now with a medium barrel instead of the overly heavy barrel and what I'm wondering is what are your thoughts on the SIR in a mid format or go with the LaRue?
Thanks,
Mike

the larue is lighter and cheaper

the arms is solid and easy to install

i like both and it would depend on what you want from it.

Big, heavy, out of spec, and expensive.

Sturdy and easy to install.

+1 on both the above replies.

But I still love mine.

If I was building a second rifle I'd go with something different. Just because it's different.

I like variety... if you have a SIR, try another. If you find you dont like it as much, sell it and get another SIR. But the different rails out there right now are good enough I doubt that will happen and you'll have a different rail you find you like, probably as much, but for different reasons.

Yeah i love my SIR. And yes it is expensive and heavy but i wouldn't have it any other way. It's very well designed and manufactured.
