FEEL FREE TO POST MULTIPLE FIREARMS IN SEPARATE IMAGES, heck, you might have 4 or 5 GoTo AR's!
Lets see images and discuss our best AR's, the ones we trust 100%. Tell us why this particular AR rifle, sbr or pisol is your SHTF or DUTY GoTo. If you're at all like me, you may be collecting a lot of different AR's. This may be due to the current political climate, the rush of training or maybe simply because you think the AR is one of the best firearm designs ever conceived. Personally, I could never own too many AR's and hope to continue to add to the collection. That being said, I do have my favorites. My GoTo, must haves. MANY CHANGES HAVE COME I start with this KAC URX4 Mod 2 w/ E3 SR16 BCG  My Colt/Geissele 11-5 HRT. This is my first choice, day or night, GoTo AR.   My GoTo Hunting/Truck Gun. It's a 12-5 LMT in Caliber 6.8 SPC

(Wife's 6920, My 6960, Son 2's 6720, Son 1's 6920) My wife's gun probably has the most work into it. It started life as a 6920 Trooper that I had ADCO swap a P/W SOCOM barrel into along with a URX4. It's wearing a Primary Arms Platinum 1-8X in an ADM mount with an ALG trigger. My 6960 is just stock with a G2S and RMR/Scalarworks combo. Son 1 drug his through the Strike Industries catalog (no current pics because: shame). But at the end of the day, it's a 6920 even if it has a wobbly stock and cheesy FF tube. 
Son 2's currently rocking URX 3.1 and Primary Arms 3x Prism. We just stuck the broom handle on for the pic. I wouldn't have a problem grabbing any of them in an emergency. I didn't stick low mas carriers, adjustable gas blocks, monster brakes, special buffers or adamantium springs in 'em trying to chase a recoil impulse. Case after case of ammo. Dripping with lube, no lube, 800 rounds dirty, sparkling clean, 100+F or in the rain They. All. Just. Work. We're probably going to be looking at lighter options for optics in the coming months for the SOCOM and 6720 though. |

So, now that I hit 1000 rounds I suppose I can post My ALL DDC Geissele. I guess I'll call this My Back Up RECCE Rifle. Really, I own it because it looks cool...
LOWER- Geissele Super Duty w/ Ultra Duty LPK and SSA-E UPPER- 14-5 URGI w/ DDC Super Duty Receiver (I did have one FTExtract in the first mag, (IDK, it was very cold outside) but I changed the BCG to a Hard Chrome LMT Carrier w/ COLT Bolt- after swapping the BCG I have yet to have a single failure. *I have a Geissele REBCG and may run it in this Rifle but I am not yet 100% confident with it's abilities. It's in one of my 11-5's, if I hit 1000 w/ no failures I think about installing it in this Geissele Unicorn Rifle, but, for no other reason than to make this an ALL GEISSELE Rifle. As of now, I am partial to the Hard Chrome LMT OPTICS- Vortex Razor w/ SOPMOD Mount and Geissele BUIS 
*I am really digging these Dog Leg SL's. I would recommend them for any build other than when running a PDW Stock or Brace |

LMT Sold a hundred or so when they completed one of Their latest Police Contracts. Dutch Police, if I remember correctly. They were sold out by the time I decided to buy a few more, 2 hours later... I did happen to purchased 2 though. Still have one NIB. I really kick myself for not having bought 10. The only reason I did not is because I am partial to LMT Enhanced Carriers. I would LOVE TO FIND an LMT Hard Chrome Enhanced Carrier. Yes, I believe Hard Chrome is My favorite flavor of BCG! I think they clean even easier than NiB...

Weight doesn't concern me too bad for an HD blaster. If I decide to grab this one for hunting, I'll have to take the laser and light off. I usually don't have to hike too far unless I'm hunting game lands. Also have a tripod in the works. I have a different go to rifle that addresses weight constraints. |
