This is a notable point about quality control. Quality control is consistency of a special standard. Another point made being the parts quality. There's for sure a lot of problems with the parts Bushmaster and other such companies use. In fact some of them make parts out of a lesser quality metal to begin with (at this point testing doesn't make the part good.) It's also true an AR-15 isn't quite a 1911 situation to where they actually require a high percentage of precision work. If Nighthawk used bad parts in their handguns I'm sure their product would work pretty well with all the work put into them until the parts insufficiency came into play (whether tested or not). Likewise, a gun made of good parts could suffer from insufficient attention by the armorer/gunsmith.
The AR-15 is for sure not a 1911, but there is a balance with any product. I've not researched horror stories on the Spike's rifles, so I have no data to present in this post about how they may not have good parts or quality control. In other words, I'm not going to be convinced they're lesser than another quality company until I see things other than them performing so well. So far there's lots of great proof they're "good to go".
