My neighbor recently acquired an AR from a company I have never heard of before http://rhinoarms.com/ I was just wondering if anyone on the board had ever used these rifles before and can comment on their quality or lack there of.

lol, i have no experience with them but if "legal in all 50 states" is the best marketing gimmick they got, then i'm going to assume they're no better than del-tons. If not worse.

Never heard of them, but I'm digging the 308 on their home page. Anybody know who's rail that is? It looks quite a bit like LaRue's PredatAR rail

No idea though they get points for the just about the strangest upper and lower milling I have ever seen. Wonder the benefits there, maybe weight reduction? At any rate would be curious to know more about them, if for nothing else than to know to stay away.

I don't see any specs other than some hardness claims and the material of the upper and lower billet.

the rail on the ar in the background is from wilson combat i believe.

The magwell makes me hungry for waffles.

looks like they just continued the pmag pattern up the magwell. I wonder how much they are charging for the 556 version.

Technically isn't that true?

judging by the brochure, they seem more like a "specialty" maker like pof, black rain, nemo and such. i do believe i saw a carbon fiber rail on one.. hmmm..

I always give new companies a chance but...what on earth? are those pins torx screws? I dunno about that,like those AK's made with screws in place of rivets :blink:

I don't see a price,how much dare I ask?

There are two for sale on Gunbroker.com. One is $2379.99 and the other is being auctioned. It currently has two bids and is at $1010.

$2380 seems a bit steep to me, especially from an unproven company. For that kind of money, give me a KAC any day.

i dont think we should start calling people idiots or call stuff that we dont have solid facts on junk. im not supporting this, im just saying. :jester: you never know, im sure when the first DD rifles came out, people called them junk as well... now look!
