Kinda wish they just sold the upper by itself.
Gremguy22@reddit
Got one of these and its a bad mofo. Rifle gas.
Threw an LPVO on it for "DMR" style rifle.

Did the same with mine. Pretty damn accurate right out of the box. I usually get right around ~1.5moa with good ammo and 2-2.5 with cheap stuff.

Compared to other entry-level ARs on the market, you're still coming out way ahead here with all the upgrades this thing is packing. In fact, this is more a mid-tier piece at an entry-level price. 16" (that can't be right) cold hammer-forged barrel w/5R rifling: $200 Ruger's Elite 452 two-stage trigger: $140 Low-profile gas block: $10 15-inch free-float handguard: $70 Magpul MOE SL stock: $50 Magpul MOE grip: $15 Sig Romeo 5 red dot: wait a minute About $600 in upgrades over standard entry-level. You will be collecting parts for a year at dirt-bottom prices trying to build & beat this package. Pricing under $800 makes this a great deal.
rage_against@reddit
This is copied and pasted on every single post of this deal now I’m getting suspicious
NukedForZenitco@reddit
The hilarious part is saying a random CHF barrel is some kind of upgrade. Can't believe we're still pushing CHF as something worth paying more for lol
Shaved_taint@reddit
You must be new here. This has been a copy pasta for years for the MPR
mr_misanthropic_bear@reddit
It's copypasta that's been in use for years.
storytimeme@reddit
I'm a real person and not a shill. The mpr was my first ar and it's never given me a problem. No malfunction on any ammo. The only thing about it that sucks is it comes with a compensator that's loud and concussive. A headache if all you do is shoot in small indoor ranges. Trigger and furniture is super nice
JohnJohnPhenomenon@reddit
Thanks for confirming, thought I was going crazy
IllSkyHelix111@reddit
wait till you find out about the 5.7's
spacexfalcon@reddit
This is the pre-Harrier right? This has a better barrel than the new ones from what I can see.
QuasisteIlar@reddit
Yep. It's just a quality rifle right out of the box. Slap an LPVO on it and start blasting.
Tom-a-than@reddit
High shelf lower needs dremel for SS
backwoodsmtb@reddit
You would also need to put in a different trigger since the 452 isnt compatible with a super safety, which defeats some of the purpose of buying this.
knoxknifebroker@reddit
$79 Schmid trigger
MUFC07@reddit
Do you think this is a better value proposition then the andro corps that primary runs on sale for 350?
knoxknifebroker@reddit
Good question, if you wanna leave it stock, get this. If you wanna tinker and upgrade, get the Andro
Cheugy-Boogie@reddit
Nice ad
ZealousidealCrow811@reddit
Hmmmmm
RockChalkChief@reddit
What's the prevailing opinion on this vs something like a S&W Sport III vs just getting a cheap PSA rifle knowing you'll end up spending on more mods?
storytimeme@reddit
I watched an hour long video yesterday from school of the American rifle, or whatever they're called, on the mp sport 3. Tldr, lots of qc anomalies. Some nitpicky, some more significant
NukedForZenitco@reddit
So did Ruger.
youy23@reddit
Both the ruger and S&W had a lot of issues when tested by School of the American Rifle.
My opinion is just get a PSA or spend the extra money for an actually good rifle from BCM or sionics or Centurion or SOLGW or DD or Geissele.
RockChalkChief@reddit
Hear ya, have contemplated building a blemmed out BCM with the mk2 RMS lower and whatever upper is the best deal I can find when I'm ready to buy, just too many options out there
youy23@reddit
I would really try to switch that the other way around lol. The upper has substantially more contribution to reliability and function than your lower.
A lot more tolerances have to be precisely held on the upper whereas you can have out of spec dimensions on your lower and have minimal effect on reliability. Your buffer system is the biggest component that contributes to reliability on your lower.
I’d even consider building out your lower. Not too difficult and you can pick out exactly what parts you want. GAFS is a very good source for parts.
clicktoseemyfetishes@reddit
Case in point, Anderson lowers were notoriously dogshit and oUt oF sPeC and 99.9% of folks were fine
RockChalkChief@reddit
Reading that back I realize that was ambiguous, was meaning to spring for a full BCM build all blems though, will still be expensive but hopefully just about bulletproof
Numerous-Relation-17@reddit
You will have more into the mods for the PSA than the original price of the MPR as a stock weapon. Sport III is a fine rifle but in my opinion the MPR is a better package for around the same money. I own PSA, Ruger and CMMG AR platforms. I am happy with all of them.
backwoodsmtb@reddit
I've had an MPR for 5ish years now, and its a really solid out of the box rifle that doesn't require a bunch of mods - all I've replaced was the charging handle and BCG.
202glewis@reddit
My first ar. Wasn’t my last but is definitely the heaviest, loudest, and longest barrel ar that I own.
clicktoseemyfetishes@reddit
Softest shooting?
202glewis@reddit
Na that would probably be one of my piston sbrs
FeiMao250@reddit
Damn it, had it in cart and sold out. Virginians going wild
Recent-Honey5564@reddit
I will never financially recover from this bill but it’s the perfect excuse to keep buying…
kayl_breinhar@reddit
Virginian here who bought one specifically to keep it boxed and in a closet.
I still have to buy a new upper and lower for my 13.9" ADM because they're both proprietary. -_-
FeiMao250@reddit
Nice score. How much was shipping btw?
kayl_breinhar@reddit
$745.78 all in, $40.80 in tax and $24.99 shipping.
Kicking myself because I remember pre-COVID you could get these in the $500-600 range rather commonly.
AmericanScotsman@reddit
How is this website/gun store? Legit?
edwards706@reddit
Local to me. Their customer service in store is horrendous, but they're legit and likely fine if shipping to your FFL.
Mysterious_Cow_2100@reddit
OOS!
EfficientBum@reddit
How many purposes?
Cross88@reddit
I use mine to make other people uncomfortable when I go to buy soda at Walmart.
IllSkyHelix111@reddit
🐬🐬🐬
AKsuited1934@reddit
By definition? At least two or more…many even depending on who you ask.
chicknfly@reddit
Already OOS
Apprehensive-Cod95@reddit
This is a mid level rifle. I love mine. An amazing value and great shooter
JackTwoGuns@reddit
I have one. It’s been the best starter AR for many years.
Hard to pass on any of Rugers offerings
