PSA Sabre 13.7 p&w with the keymo jmac flash hider so I can use my sandman. Will be getting an lpvo and wml, think battle rifle/hogs at night. Im sure its obvious which one it is.

The classic dilemma, choosing between these three:

Daniel Defense DD5 V3

LMT Defender (or MARS) H

PWS MK216 MOD2-M

The use case is a do-all battle rifle that could pull double duty as a DMR.

My priorities in order are:

1) Reliability and resistance to adverse conditions

2) Accuracy

3) Weight

4) Ease of suppression (I'm using a flow-through can of some sort)

5) Tunability for recoil mitigation

6) Customer service reputation

I really like the LMT for its pedigree of robustness, accuracy, and quick change barrel capability (would be nice to convert back and forth to 6.5 CM). It also has a lot of reliability enhancements to its BCG.

I like the PWS for the amount of features it comes with out of the box and how clean it runs, especially suppressed, plus its relatively light weight for a piston gun. Also supposed to shoot incredibly smooth and soft for a piston 308. However it does not have any military pedigree and it does not use dual extractors.

The DD is probably the lightest of the bunch but I know the least about it, and DD primarily has law enforcement customers.

What buffer weight would y’all suggest? 12.5 inch 308, carbine buffer tube, will be run suppressed, the FRT I’ll be using is similar to the Kabuto (can’t remember the exact name). And to get this part out of the way: I know I’m losing a lot of energy, no I won’t be shooting long range with it, and I’ll probably not hunt with it (not sure if North Carolina allows hunting with SBRs), it’s just going to be a fun range toy. Oh, and I reload, so I’m not too worried about going through a lot of ammo.

Hi,

I am looking for recommendations for a prebuilt 6.5 Creedmoor AR-10 with a budget of no more than $4,000 for the firearm. I was thinking of either LMT MARS-H or the LWRCI REPR. However, I am disappointed that both barrels are only 20".

TIA.
