    We're not talking champagne and beer here, we're talking potable water vs. something that might or might not give you the shits, but is going to taste like ass even if it doesn't.

    LaRue products are going to be better designed, more accurate, more consistent, and made from better materials than anything YHM puts out. YHM products will generally work - unless they don't (rails not fitting, not being true, etc.) If $150 is really that big of a deal when it comes to getting a piece of equipment that is dependable and fully functional, then you probably should have bought an SKS or M44.

    I am so impressed with Larue stuff that is pretty much all I buy when it comes to optics mounts now.

    SKS or M44's? C'mon dude give me a break! Can anyone here boast of 7 M16's and its variants? I can. You talk about rails like it's going to save your life. Get a gun that will dude!

    That wasn't a knock on AR's, it was a knock on people going cheap because the weapon they've chosen is outside their budget. What would you rather have, a Vulcan AR-15, or an SKS?

    That's funny. I don't see how choosing a YHM over a LaRue on a gun means that the rifle is outside of my budget. It's not the same as choosing a Chinese red dot over an ACOG.

    I stand by what I said, in the context of non-plinking rifles.

    If the price difference between the YHM and LaRue rail really is that critical for you, then you probably should have chosen a platform other than the AR.
