All I want is a nice 7.62 rifle without having to wait years to get it. I want to buy a LaRue OBR, but I would settle for an LMT MWS or a GAP10, but no one has them in stock, and I just got an unofficial quote on 1.5 YEARS from LaRue to get a rifle.Fuck buying used

This seems common through several different rifles. No one has them in stock, year+ backlogs to order them, and gunbroker is overpriced, untrustworthy and expensive.

I lust after the OBR. I have the money, but for the life of me I just cant find it anywhere. Some asshole on gunbroker is selling a used one for $200 off the price direct from LaRue.

I will just keep looking until I find one I guess..
>>
>LaRueshit is out of stock

It's a sign from god anon, he's telling you to find a better gun
>>
>>33266142
I feel like my options are:
>LaRue OBR
>LMT MWS
>GAP10
>SCAR17s (not a fan)
>MR762A1 (overpriced)

Most of them are hard to buy, out of stock, and back ordered. GAP10 is pretty nice tho, Still haven't decided


I am not considering a FAL, please no G3 memes
>>
>>33266072

All of the good 7.62s are hard to get on purpose. The mystique aspect allows them to get away with charging you $2800+ for the privilege.
>>
>>33266178
GAP-10 is a great rifle if you're looking for a precision gun. MWS and 17S won't be disappointing, though.

Whatever you do, don't buy LaRue.
>>
>>33266072
>>33266178
You can try building one, it's expensive, but you get more intimate with the gun, and you can make exacly how you want it. I've seen some ARs using G3 mags, looked rad.
>>
>>33266288
I would love to buy a GAP-10, I just don't want to wait 9 months to be able to do so.

I may go with the MWS simply because its available.

The MR762A1 is fucking titties. It's sub minute and just awesome out of the box. Just got the scope for mine today.
>>
>>33266288

Why not buy Larue?
>>
>>33266178
>i want a 7.62 rifle
>i refuse to buy 2 of the 3 major battle rifles

If you're looking at AR platforms anyway, why don't you just build an AR-10?
>>
>>33266178
>No FAL
>No G3

Well how about an M14 you picky bastard.
>>
>>33266072
Whats wrong with Midwest, Armalite, or DPMS?
>>
>>33266072
Can't you build off of an aero precision upper and lower set and get basically exactly what you want? The MEGA sets look pretty great too and they allow you to use AR-15 parts for the lower.
>>
>>33266072
Pay me $3k and I'll banzai charge your targets and stab it with a knife.
>>
The FAL, G3, and M14 are absolute dogshit. Anyone who recommends them is a complete fucking idiot desu. They aren't relevant now.

>>33266072
If you want something Gucci it might be worth looking into B&T's APC308 they're bringing in as a 14.5" pistol. Obviously no experience yet but it's another one to throw into the ring and I can definitely speak toward their quality based on the guns I've seen.
>>
>>33266072
why not the wilson combat 308?

Good thing comes to those who wait?

A year is over in a flash, so I don't quite see the issue. That's how long I had to wait for my lefty AI AT. Accuracy International only does limited runs of lefty rifles, so you gotta wait until they run a batch.

If you're sure this is what you want, why not commit to it?
>>
>>33270591
Never has any problems buying their barrels and mounts. I don't think you have ever actually dealt with the company.

This. It's what the US Military wanted to do but failed to do

I never wanted to after hearing the horror stories.

Maybe they wised up after realizing that dumb shit was hurting their business. Do you still get this with your order? Looks like the ran out of Dildo Dust by 2014.

>>33266072
I'd tell you to buy a SCAR, if not get the MWS. I'm a huge fan of the platform and if you ever get board of .308 you can swap to a 6mm. The only real drawback is the MWS is going to weigh more than the GAP10 because of how the barrel interfaces with the receiver.
>>
>>33266139
Be lucky you're not into watches, steel Rolex Daytonas were selling for more used than brand new.
>>
>>33271429
Not him, but yeas you do. How much you order affects how much "swag" you get. I got a hat, dust, bottle opener, paint mixer, and a pile of stickers and shit. I appreciate the thought, but I can't help but wonder if the prices are to cover all that crap. Also the only thing i didn't throw out was the bottle opener.
>>
>>33271429
>>33271961

kek not related to LaRue but my LGS gave me as "free swag" a little business card that says something like "I respect your choice as a private business to prohibit fire arms on site, so please respect my choice to take my business elsewhere" or something that I could imagine some faggot leaving instead of a tip to be clever.
>>
>>33266139
Why the OBR in particular rather than any of the other nice .308 ARs? Not judging or anything, just curious.
>>
>>33267446
Looks sweet. If they come out with an updated version that more closely matches the new CSASS one I might pick one up as a precision gun. I've got a 17s and it's plenty accurate, but I'm going to dress it up as a battle rifle / carbine, probably SBR it to 13 inches
>>

You could always check out Windham Weaponry's selection.

For what its worth I had a windham and it was shit. This was 3 or so years ago.

I like mine.

>>33272070
I've never bought a full WW rifle but in the past 4 months I bought 2 of their barrels and they're fantastic. Maybe they got better or maybe I'm just lucky.
>>
>>33272747
It could be too that the first runs may have been off as they started back up. They did have to wait a while to restart after Cerberus bought the Bushmaster brand off of them.
>>
>>33272835
Could be. I know they had a no compete clause after Bushmaster was bought out for something like 3 years.
>>
>>33266072
>All I want is a nice 7.62 rifle without having to wait years to get it.
Have you considered an M14/M1A?
>>
>>33266072
PTR91 or FAL would be where I would go
>>
>>33272870
I think he's set on a high end "tactical" rifle. I have an m1a and like it, but it's not really in the same league as a nice AR10/SCAR17/MR762
>>
>>33266178
Look into pws
>>
>>33266178
check out KAC

This guy is obviously interested in precision.
