I cant say enough good things about this company. I bought a 24inch 6.5 barrel them...called them to double check the journal for the gas port so I could get the correct gas block. Mike called me back from his personal cell and said if I ever had any problems to hit him up. So much respect goin out to them for all they do🤘🙏

I don’t normally comment on videos or forums…but I wanted to thank everyone at Brownell’s for supporting the troops and all of those in KZread land who service this great nation in the armed forces!!! Happy Veteran’s Day!!!

I've spoken with Mike on the phone at length and interacted with him online. He's the real f***ng deal. He's far too humble about the body of knowledge he has built around the AR platform. Great guy running a great operation.

It’s kind of hit or miss with them it seems but I guess the good thing is they have always swapped out what I return or reimbursed me.

I just purchased a SOLGW combat grade barrel 16" mid length gas. Having nothing but gas issues. Using it on a normal 223/556 platform using a Adams Arms short stroke gas piston system. The barrel came with a .078" gas port and needs to be larger (.081") to work with the gas piston system. I have reached out to SOLGW several times to get assistance, no one has reached back yet or picked up the phone.

Yes, at least their barrels

I laughed out loud when I saw what they're charging for a barreled upper. $500 for a barrel, gas block, gas tube, barrel nut, and upper receiver. No hand guard, no BCG, no charging handle, no muzzle device. They are smoking that 1986 L.A. crack, the good shit. They don't offer anything that you can't buy/build for yourself at a cheaper price. That's my problem with them. You could build yourself 2 guns with pretty much the same components for what one of their rifles cost. I suppose you're paying for the branding, the QC, and the free replacement parts. I don't personally see that much value in that to warrant their price point, but spend your money how you want. You do get a cool logo...and that's half the battle right there.

@@project86xero PSA upper with Geissele rail is $680 right now, and it has a CHF barrel. Their other offerings around the $400-$500 range can either be complete uppers w/ BCG and charging handle or they can have more premium features like a CHF barrel, iron sights, red dots, muzzle devices but are minus the BCG and charging handle. Brownell's is selling a SOLGW bare frickin' upper for almost $500 with shipping and tax. Its an assembled upper with a barrel and gas system, that's it. You'd have to spend another $500 to get it ready to shoot. A Ballistic Advantage barrel is $100 on BDU, $165 if you get the Hanson profile (I've heard that's who SOLGW uses for barrels. Not 100% sure). Lets say we use an Aero Precision M4E1 assembled upper, that's $140. Add in a gas block and gas tube for another $40. We have the same basic bare upper as SOLGW for $280, or $345 with the better barrel. SOLGW is overpriced for what it is. Again, if they were offering something different then maybe I could see the point, but what sets them apart from the other 20-25 reputable manufacturers/assemblers? Nothing but branding as far as I can tell.

And lets be real here, 90% of people (me included) will likely never push a rifle to its limits or even shoot it often enough to warrant exchanging out worn parts. I don't see the free parts replacement as a positive. I look at it the same way I look at an extended warranty on your car. It costs you more money up front and you'll likely never use it.

@@oldscratch3535 PSA doesn't have any QC. Zero. Go look up School of American Rifle's PSA autopsy videos. PSA is trash QC. It seems PSA buys / uses rejected out of spec parts. Sure, you might get a CHF FN barrel, but the barrel extension isn't torqued correctly, or the chamber isn't cut to proper 5.56 NATO specs. That Tool Carft BCG might have a free bore with machining is rough, too wide and out of spec - reject bin / gas inefficient. PSA assembled rifles, you're lucky if they properly torqued the barrel nut to specs - loose barrel nuts are a common problem. I would never pick PSA for a home defense carbine. And you'll notice no police department use PSA trash.

Untill they STOP using that outdated barrel profile, it's going to be a NO.

Would be nice if they would actually have stock supposedly have all these amazing rifles and products but can only get a 14.5 that garandpinky designed
