    Arms tech any good?

    I have a friend wanting to swap me one on these.

    http://www.armstechltd.com/products.php?id=usr_rifle

    I've never heard of them and no specs on the site? He wants $1300.00. it has the POF rail and KAC micros as well. He says he paid $2200.00 for it. He wants a .308 precision rifle I have. Search is disconnecting me.

    They are located locally and I have never heard of them? Maybe I need to make a visit.

    See what you can find out. This isn't a this week thing. But for the price of a KAC or Noveske they ought to be good.

    Their claim to fame is their barrels feature polygonal, gain-twist rifling. Supposed to offer increased velocity over conventionally rifled barrels. Also, they're a SS alloy that the company doesn't divulge. Supposed to offer much improved life over conventional CM barrels. They also build their own cans.

    Long time ago Peter Kokalis did a review of one of their uppers. It was a gas trap DI type operating system for an M16/AR15. I think they used a polygonal rifled barrel. They seemed to produce less fouling, had softer extraction and had higher muzzle velocities than regular type AR uppers with similar length barrels. http://www.armstechltd.com/products.php?id=reconrifle

    Some of what I saw made my spider sense tingle. I'll see what I can find out.

    My first thought is... here we go again with another Fly By Night AZ goofball manufacturor.

    I hope their product is better than their photography and website.

    Considering that the barrel lasts for "150,000 rounds" and bolt cracking is "NOT seen", it should be a very sound investment.

    Those were just a couple of gems from their M4 vs. Compak 16 Chart in the FAQ section. rolleyes:
