Which one of these is the better rifle to get ? I will be adding a Huxwrk 556 Flow Ti.

Between those two, go for the Geissele, but I prefer BCM overall, especially the MK2 receiver. Also take a look at the Laz 6 or CT5P if you're not sold on the Huxwrx.

Hard to beat the BCM MK2 upper for value prop. It’s overgassed when suppressed (at any length?), but you mitigate that with a HUX. I added an SA AGB to mine though. Slap it on your favorite lower and enjoy.
That said, I did order the Mk1 P3 stainless barrel. Folks can crap on SOLGW all they want, but Preston Moore’s results won me over.

I went with the CT5P over Hux because I'm a cheap ass and just direct thread suppressors and the CT5P is pretty solid for the price. After using the MK2 receiver, I don't think I can go back to a traditional forward assist lol.

Solgw has always offered a good product. G is an awsome rifle but the MK1 edges it out. The G is more comparable to solgw’s L89 series.

SOLGW makes good rifles, but G$ rifles are definitely in another teir above.

SOLGW MK1 doesnt even come with the contract barrel or bcg while being the same price MSRP to the new Ambi Geissele Guns that come with a Top tier barrel, THE best BCG on the market, a SSA-E, and Elite Handguard lockup

SOLGW has the superior handguard system and an A5 buffer that the Geissele doesn’t have. I do wish it was offered with the contract barrel and BCG, but their P3 rifled barrels are supposed to be pretty good as are their standard NP3 coated BCGs.

What’s different in the retail and contract barrel?

Hate to jump on the bandwagon, but I also have to go with the Geissele. Other than adding an optic, front grip, light, and sling, there’s nothing you have to do to it. It’s ready right out of the box.

Geissele hands down

Only reason anyone considers SOLW is bc of the contract they got. They were not a top dog player in the quality/features department until they got that contract. They then raised the prices of EVERYTHING after they obtained it due to publicity. Just a G$ and call it a day, trust me.
