CAG / Seekins Precision AR10

[Stickman]

I have never heard anything about "the unit" using a Seekins Precision 6.5C. Am I the last person on the planet to know this? What are your thoughts?

I didn't know CAG was using Seekins but know that those Seekins 6.5 with a 22" barrel are highly favored by former SF guys for long range gas guns.

"The Unit" is not exactly an info fountain.

I don't follow that stuff closely but had never heard of them doing that. I also don't put much faith in those type of reports as I've seen/heard examples of one photo or third party report leading to significant rumors that the whole organization was using something.

Agreed that its probably BS, when it comes to companies saying this stuff its because some where at some time some outfit purchased a few guns COTS for testing. They arent lying outright but just inflating things for clout. I don't know if you remember back in the day DPMS was saying stuff like that about their 7" Kitty Kat ARs because someone somewhere in the DOD needed an extremely small and obnoxious AR for a very specific purpose, still doesnt make it a good product.

Yup, very common in the industry, and used to be even more common. There is certainly a large difference between a guy who says he is delta for a discount, and the .mil making a purchase of 50 guns.

I had thought they were using the KAC and HK large frames, but that is probably old info.

The SP-10 has been in use within USASOC at least as far back as 2021. Public source photos from the International Sniper Competition have shown the CAG and 75th teams have them as far back as that.

LOL yeah, and I'm cool with it. They deserve a degree of "cloudiness". Kind of like a year or two ago they were about to be going with the 10.5" Geissele Super Duty or variant thereof. Now you will occasionally see a pic of what is ostensibly a D-Boy (obviously take with a BIG grain of salt!) and it's a SIG Spear LT or variant thereof.

Yeah, folks "in the know" most often aren't, and the majority of the ones who are knowledgeable keep it zipped up.
