Mine runs dirty or clean on everything from XM-193 to Wolf.  One FTE in ~1500 rounds, no other malfs.

I've never had a lick of trouble out of my SGW stamped lower...

I like mine.  The only problems that I've had with it is that the muzzle brake came loose and was "diverting" my shots. Took it off and it went back to very small groups for a 16" barrel. The gas block on the bolt wasn't staked at the factory and came loose. I tightened the allen screws and staked the heads tight.  No problems.  It has had at least 4000 rounds go through the pipe and those are the only malfunctions.

I did melt the sling to the barrel at a shoot once.

My Olympic Arms rifles have functioned flawlessly.

I have a couple of Oly forged lowers, built into rifles with a variety of parts.

They work good.

I have a plinker that works fine...fit and finish is meh, but otherwise it functions fine. Good beater, loaner, etc. About 1200 rounds through it so far, the only malf was when I didn't install a collapsible stock correctly, and the buffer retaining pin came loose and lodged itself in the FCG.

I have an Oly and never had any problems with it.  I also like the loenbrau versus a snake or pony.
