Reviews? I had an AR-50, and sadly, I traded it off. I now have a trade offer for a State Arms Compact with the aluminum stock. How are they? Any experiences? Edited to accurately name rifle. |
| hello. i got to shoot one at a machinegun shoot. they hardly kick at all, but damn! feels like someone slapped you in the nose every time you shot it!. maybe the newer ones have a different muzzle brake? this one had a huge fish gill brake. worked great, but really let the gasses hit you. other wise, a really well built gun. kirk |

I shoot in FCSA 1000-yd matches and I have found the State Arms Shorty I own to be every bit as accurate as the other production guns I compete with. Best group so far at 1000-yds just under 7 inches. They are solid guns, probably the strongest action out there, and the guy that owns the company is awesome so far as service. Mine came with one hell of a nice trigger on it, a bipod, a monopod, the aluminum stock, and a 20 MOA rail all for $2K. Recoil is super mild, shoulder never gets sore, even after 120 rounds in 2 days of a match. Never heard them called a compact though. Take a look at www.statearms.com and see if the one you are offered in trade is a Shorty. -David Edgewood, NM www.fcsa.org |

Here's my State Arms Shorty with my wife shooting it. Before I picked up the NF NXS. Still has a Supersniper on it. Picture on the State Arms site doesn't do it justice. http://img182.imageshack.us/img182/4968/dsc00030msgboardii1.th.jpg -David Edgewood, NM |
