Looks to be a new company for the weekend warrior/Gecko45 crowd.
Their web site does not inspire confidence. Looks like AR15 parts assemblers. I would stay away.
War Sport is a great company. They are local to North Carolina and I have met the owner, Joey, at training courses around here. I have also ordered stuff from them. Customer service is outstanding as Joey will go out of his way to make sure you are taken care of. Their reputation in this area is great & I know there are some more NC folks here on the forum that can probably vouch for them as well. They are definitely not a "Mall-Ninja Crowd" type company.
Looks kind of expensive to me. $750 for a complete lower with Giessele trigger???
They also have stripped lowers for $150 but you have to coat them or paint them yourself. When they say stripped, they mean stripped. Think I'll pass.
They will be hitting the market next month with an AR based rifle unlike anything on the market. They are not built for mall ninjas, quite the opposite.
No, that was not what I was trying to say. I do realize that most "manufacturers" don't make their own parts in house and that's fine. The very fact that the AR rifle design is essentially open source and doesn't require blessing of certain gunsmiths/customer builders to make it run is one of the fundamental strengths of the design.
I didn't have time to finish my thoughts (had to take my daughter and dog hiking) but the website gave me a certain vibe. However, I'm seeing positive things said about the company on here. I'll listen and see if any owners of their gear show up.
I know Joey as well and have seen his work. He does take pride in the stuff he builds and works to improve on the system. To date he is the only guy I know that has a fully functional and reliable 12.5" Mid Gas system in their new LVOA SBR. I will be taking a class in November where their new 14.5" Rifle will be available for review. I'm looming forward to checking it out.
I am in no way affiliated with Warsport, however I do know the owners and know that they are serious about what they do.
