Matthew –
One of the best rifles I’ve ever shot straight out of the box.
Pros
-The recoil is unbelievable. Pushes the recoil straight back so there’s almost no vertical rise.
– The trigger is very nice. It feels like mil-spec, but without all the travel of a standard M-4 trigger.
– The freefloat rail system is rock solid and comfortable hold with either a standard or c-clamp grip.
– Back up irons are reliable and take up little space. I zeroed with them out of the box, 2 years and 1500rds later they’re still spot on.
Cons
-The pistol grip. It does it’s job, but if you run it without gloves, it’s very awkward feeling.
Not a con, but something to note
-If you’re going for accuracy, grab 62gr or heavier ammo. The 1-7 twist in these barrels are very picky. Good 62gr will get you submoa pretty easily. Factory 62gr will get you between 1-1.5 depending on manufacturer. 55gr performance massively decreases to 2-3 moa.

Built this up exactly as the Rifle’s name intended – a suppressed 16in gun with a 1-8 lpvo. This thing is fantastic. My safety selector screw was loose out of the box but that was a quick fix. I have zero complaints with this rifle. The suppressed tuned gas system really is what it says it is…especially with an OSS can. Buy it.
