The ARX is certainly reliable.
But,
As an example,
I threw together an upper out of spare parts I had lying around. It could go on a pistol. Or, I grabbed a stamped SBR Lower I made as a spare about ten years ago. With just a basic lower build kit.
I don’t normally zero RDS at 100m, but I did this to compare a random AR to the ARX.
Five three round groups to zero. This was green tip. For whatever reason PMC XTAC green tip tends to be more accurate than other brands I try. The group from a parts bin upper looks like this. And it’s really five groups with zero changes.
And it’s a spare SBR lower, with less than 2k rounds fired. And such a basic trigger and parts kit when I was a novice builder. the BH stopped working today. Sure, it’s a quick fix, but a good indicator I did not drop some Uber LPK and trigger in there.
Same ammo, minutes apart, from the ARX.
One single ten round group.
Sure, it’s on fire sale now, after a failed market introduction, but this is a gun they planned on selling for $1600. With worse accuracy than a $500 budget AR build or AK.
