Quote HistoryQuoted:
At least CBM is honest and calls it what it is, the next generation. Not incremental improvements. Oh and I got a 5.56 one. Its reliable, or at least its eaten everything I fed it. The trigger is actually good for a bullpup. But despite several match grade offerings, it doesnt hold MOA. And frequently was over 2 MOA. |

You got the new MDRX in 5.56?
FE or SE? Did you try SIG 77gr OTM ammo? |

Its stimm 4140 turned by Faxon. Theres a reason DT doesnt offer an accuracy guarantee for the MDR when they do for the rest of their rifles. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Well there is one thing we DO know. The MDR is far more accurate than the Tavor 7, or X95. With match ammo...yes more accurate...but are you really going to shot FGMM all the time...nope...so...accuracy depends on what you want... Hunting rifle-MDR Tactical rifle-Tavors I have yet to see anyone shot 150gr ELD out of a T7 to match the 1:12 twist so we could be up for a surprise there... Which pretty much mirrors what everyone is saying...I personally never shoot match ammo as long as a rifle returns 1.5-2MOA with M80 ball... |

It’s also possible they’ve suddenly resolved all the MDR engineering and quality issues, turned over a new leaf on schedule fidelity, and stopped taking and sitting on peoples money for wildly unreasonable amounts of time. Leopards changing their spots and all that, but make your own decisions. Anyone even remotely considering spending money with or for a Delphi Tech product absolutely NEEDS to first invest the time to read this WHOLE thread from start to finish. If they are still willing to spend the money after that then I’m frankly astonished but at least they’ll be making an informed choice. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Come on, guys, it's also been shown that the recent MDR configs have worked acceptably; I'd be shocked if the new X has re-introduced past issues solved after a ton of customer alpha-testing. Doesn't forgive the crazy delays, lies, and shit that was pushed out the door. The X forgoes the ejection contraption, so that should help greatly.

Quote HistoryQuoted: @kwisak Range report? Fingers crossed that your new MDRx runs as well as the YouTube review guns! So basically I’ll get a write up and videos going, but it will take a bit and it’s desert tech so it might be a bit as it seems the mdrx is popular and dt really doesn’t have the capacity to push that many out the door quickly. I believe half of all the guns they made last year were mdrs, and that number wasn’t really that high. If I find that source again I’ll quote it but I don’t want to spread misinformation for exact numbers. |

I have an MDRX on order from Europtic, I believe I'm at the top of their line for a 556 in FDE so hopefully I get to take it home soon. this forum and others have not removed my hesitancy about re-entering the DT marketplace. I was a very early pre-ordered and dropped my pre-order about 12 months later.
fast forward to 2020 and I'm again the market and chose to go with the MDRX vs. the Tavor 7 for several reasons. I am not confidant I'm making the right choice, though I suppose I could save my pennies and eventually buy a Tavor 7 too. :) |

My opinion...would have went with the Tavor 7...second opinion....I did not like bullpups in .308 (had a T7 and shot the MDR)...my personal opinion...after shooting a POF AR10 (which is what I switched to after shooting one)...the POF AR10 was much smoother in operation and mitigated the 7.62x51 much better than the shorter, action bullpups...I get it is the by-product of the bully design...but honestly...I think bullpups need to stay 5.56/.300BO...
However, out of all the .308 bullies I've tried...Tavor 7 was by far the smoothest to operate and returned the best grouping with regular XM80 ball...1.5 MOA vs 2.25-2.5 with a MDR.... |

please let us know what you think about your mdrx. I've temporarily hit pause on my acquisition, but I'd still like to pick one up later in 2020 after things calm down.

The lgs was absolutely nuts, 2 boxes per person and 3/4 the guns were gone. Man it was crazy but gun looks good, emtrigger is a little creepy but pretty dam good compared to any other bullpup I have. Zero issue on first 40 rounds. All they let me buy and I left my ammo at home not knowing what a shit show it was going to be. Guns looks good polymer is pretty stiff seems stronger than my mdr as the polymer deformed a bit last time and this time it didn’t. Feels solid
 Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached FileAnyway game plan is to test this out against steyr aug m3a1, IwI Tavor and IwI x95 to see which takes the cake on accuracy, 2 gun runs, and reliability. Me and a buddy plan to run each through a 2 gun match, then setup our own 2 gun stage and each take them out to 200 yards for accuracy all in stock format with same optic on each, only optic I have that many of us a sparc so game plan is set as long as matches stay open. |

My Tavor sar is in a buddies hands at the moment but I weighed them on a scale I wouldn’t say is the most accurate but it is what it is until I can get access to a better one and optics are different and some accessories.
X95 8.6 w eotech AUG 8.4 w sparc MDR 9.4 wMRO Tommy built g36 7.2 w/ di optical My go to ar 9.0 In the arm the aug and mdr are tied for comfort with 3rd going x95. I will get some back to back shots and targets at 50-100 if I can get out this weekend. When ammo comes back in I will also do a 500 round check back to back.  Attached File |
