All the adds for the Rec10 state that it is used by “a military”, but I cannot find which one/how many/etc. This wreaks of shady marketing and played a significant factor in not buying. Outside of that, the rifle is an otherwise plain offering in a field of outstanding rifles. Particularly, it’s main competition is LMT, LaRue, and Daniel Defense. All three of these have excellent offerings with more track record (with MWS having real contracts) and innovation than the Rec10 (which is still mostly proprietary).
So there really wasn’t anything wrong with the REC10, and the example I looked at seemed fine. The competition at the same price point is simply better. Had the REC10 come out in 2004 it may have been a huge success. Now? Not so much. For about the same price I pieced together a really nice LMT MWS, and I have no regrets.
