... Frustrated customer called in. He put together a LaRue lower, LaRue MBT-2S trigger, and a LaRue MGU* Upper, but couldn't get good results with his ammo & optic combination (that he bought cheap on the street). * MGU = Match Grade Upper 16" 5.56 ... 🤷 ML

lumberjacked_coder What's his definition of "good"? I have holosuns and aim points and they all shoot the same at 500y. 7 likes

- conlanmcconnell @lumberjacked_coder agreed. Ammo is the biggest aspect of any rifle when it comes to accuracy.
a3addon All depends on what the results were. If he got 3moa that's the optic and ammo. If he got 9moa maybe the upper is a lemon. Everyone puts out a lemon here and there.

- a3addon @laruetactical I have two of your rifles and love them every bit. I'd love for you to bring back your 6.5CM upper kits as well because I want one. But everyone puts out a lemon here and there. My OBR 7.62 had issues and I had to send the upper back to you. Shit happens. 1 like

- philipwith1l @devin_tremblay I'm with you. I own Trijicon and Holosun optics. I wouldnt put a Holosun on a SHTF gun, but they are perfectly fine. 5 likes
- devin_tremblay @philipwith1l agreed
- lazor22 @devin_tremblay I think it's more the fact of using a red dot on a precision rig, but some people will always take the opportunity to bash the cheaper options. They certainly aren't the best, but to say the holosun factory is producing garbage is just factually wrong at this point. They are MILES ahead of the actual random chicom garbage optics from amazon/ebay, not even comparable. 3 likes

voodoo_ranger_steve I've had good results with holosun. I'd blame the mount and shooter before blaming optic. 5 likes
- pewpewvette @voodoo_ranger_steve It's a 2 MOA dot. And the ammo spreads twice that. Stack them up and what kind of "precision" would you expect? 2 likes
evlgreg That M193 will certainly shoot within the NATO standards of a 1" average over all the test groups. As long as the heavy test barrel is bolted to a heavy bench and fired in a lab. The reticle on a holosun like that is 3 MOA isn't it? 2 likes
- evlgreg @evlgreg I actually looked it up the dot is 2 Moa. Good luck with that.

shredla Im all about my nice gear but ill be Damned if i wasnt surprised when my p.o.s. Beater AR was some how at 1.5 moa @ 100 yards using xm193 off the bench in Southern California. Its possible but few and far between. Maybe crap upper and crap ammo equals goods every now and then? Double negatives equal a positive?
- dustin_mclean59 @shredla right here with you, have a budget mp sport 2 that shoots about 1.5moa using a $130 senora mount combo from PSA and Norma tac bulk ammo lol. Granted it has a Larue trigger in it, but that's the best I can do for now. Saving up to by the Larue Complete Upper and will throw a viper on it when the time comes, but very impressed with the budget rifle as well! 1 like
storman_67 Before I would ever complain about the accuracy of a Larue upper/ rifle, I would trouble shoot everything. Different ammo, different optic, and different mount for starters. I hope he ships it back so M. Larue can give us a Part II, tunnel test w/ Larue lower, mount and NF optic 👌

efrainp736 Was the customer a jerk about it or just needed to be educated? Holosun makes good optics, just not precision obviously. Some of the gun community are quick to insult the "poors" rather than educate. Now if customer was a jerk...different story. Haha

void.stl Just cause someone has good equipment that's capable of sub moa doesn't mean you'll shoot sub moa also if you have a 2 moa dot at 100 yards you'll likely shoot around 2moa more or less if your aim is perfect
