That handguard tab that interfaces with the upper receiver is very innovative. Basically makes it a monolithic upper without the hassle. Geissele is very innovative. I just ordered a reliability enhanced bcg. Expensive but worth it for it basically being bomb proof

The coffee is amazing!!! And the rifle too. I know as I own a few.

These super duty’s are awesome. Honestly for what you get they are a good deal. You couldn’t buy a rifle of comparable quality and put all the Geissele parts and surefire muzzle device for close to the same price. The coating on the REBCG is great too. I love my 11.5”. Mine came with a surefire CTN warcomp though.

Great review

I have one of these rifles. They are really nice. They do not come with a magazine which is fine, but it is the only AR I've ever bought that did not include one. Mine did not include coffee or a bandana and only had 2 stickers. That really does not make any difference to me, just letting people know it varies. Thanks for the video.

Thx for the great review. My local shop has the 40mm green in stock for $1990. Thinking about picking it up tomorrow.

If it’s in your budget, I would jump on it ASAP man! I know you won’t be disappointed. It is by far the best rifle I own in all categories I typically judge ARs on. The finish is great, the fitment of parts is great and above all the way all of it functions together is great! Pretty sure I mentioned it in the video, maybe not, but the first thing I noticed about it was the smoothness of the finish. It’s just different.

I actually just bought a URG-I upper. Waiting for it to arrive.

I want the OD green. The 11.5 pistol is never in stock but the 16” is

The cam pin doesn't interface with the upper receiver, that bulge is merely clearance for the cam pin. What makes the bolt rotate is the cam track in the bolt carrier itself. As the bolt carrier starts to move backwards, the cam pin rides in the track and rotates the bolt to unlock it so that it can unlock from the barrel extension and move backwards with the bolt carrier as the cam pin reaches the end of the cam track. It's not uncommon for there to be wear in the clearance area for the cam pin but that is not design intent and if there is excessive wear, something is wrong. You'll notice the bolt rotating as you move it in and out of the carrier with the carrier out of the rifle, absent of any influence of the upper receiver.

I got robbed with the freebie gear lol! Mine only came with 1 sticker. Love my rifle though!

You're Giessllie barrel is not only forged but also chrome lined with their mid length + gas system. The gas block is mounted about an 1"1/4 further from the receiver for softer shooting. The Giessllie bolt carrier an bolt is also forged with a surgical steel cam pin and extractor. The upper and lower receiver is forged as well with a 4 pound Giessllie 2 stage lighting bow trigger. The rifle has the Giessllies super42 machine gun recoil spring and their tungsten H2 buffer to help with carrier bounce and better cycling overall. The rest is your typical AR stuff except for their military grade nano firearm coating and Giessllie claims it has the performance strength of synthetic diamonds. Just thought I would help out a little because I've done a tremendous amount of research on the Giessllie Superduty rifles. 👍 👊🇺🇸🇺🇸💪

Oh yeah! And let me tell you, it was worth every penny. Blem or not, I personally don’t care about looks especially if it’s something I use in the manner I use my guns. It’s a tool so use it, get it dirty, clean it up and repeat. Function > form when it comes to guns but the two can meet in the middle and that’s where this rifles falls into place. It functions unlike any AR I’ve used before. The “Geissele length” gas system is amazing! It isn’t over gassed so you don’t get barely any felt recoil and virtually no gas blowback to the face. The BCG or REBCG is amazingly engineered and an actual functional improvement to the AR rather than a gimmick. The finish is amazing. The Luna Black is super smooth and also very tough. While the look of the upper/lower may not be anything short of mil-spec, the handguard makes up for that. Overall it is a definite recommend from me for a top tier factory built AR.

Make a video about the Night Colt Cobra

Palmetto state has them for 1875.00 in Luna black Just ordered one ( December 2022 )

Would have liked to hear more about the lower. EVERYONE skips over the Geissele lower. Even Geissele itself never talks about it. It is incredibly hard to find ANY info on it. Is it a full auto cut lower? Does it have a qd socket end plate? Is the magazine well tapered nicely (compared to some others)? Does it accept all other milspec parts or is anything proprietary on it? The reason I have been wondering is because I have several Aero Precision lowers and I really like them because of the integrated trigger guard (stronger and don't have to worry about breaking an ear off when installing the trigger guard, plus they are big enough for winter gloves), and the magazine well has an awesome flare to it to make for easy/fast reloads. Also, Aero puts a nylon tipped screw in their lowers to tighten the lower-to-upper fit so that there is no rattle. The one draw back is Aero doesn't cut their lowers for full auto. I think it is stupid that companies don't, and I believe it is nothing but a nod to the powers that be to satisfy them, and I wouldn't bend to them for that when it isn't even the law to do so.

@GunBoxTherapy

3 жыл бұрын

I haven’t filmed any range footage yet but I have shot it and it is a dream man! I promise you will love it! The Geissele length gas system is odd in that it cycles everything I’ve thrown at it and has minimal recoil (55gr .223, 55gr 5.56, 62gr 5.56, and various reloads of mine that are pretty hot). For the price, feature set and high quality materials and engineering that go into this rifle, it is a great value and in my opinion something that deserves more coverage by much bigger names than myself. There is one thing I plan to change about it, the grip. The angle of the grip is not what I’m used to using. I plan to change it to a Magpul K2 or K2+. After maybe 500 rounds or so I will go film some range footage. I just want to learn the trigger and the rifle before that.

Geisseles and DD are two of my favorites. While both slightly overpriced or expensive, you get what you pay for. biggest thing I would like to see them both do is: fully ambi lowers, its 2021, lowers need to have ambi bolt catch/ release, its a tremendous quality of life improvement.. i dont care for ambi saftey, or mag release, besides being able to choose your side. Bolt catch / release right side is a game changer. you can always install a bad lever on those that don't, but you shouldn't have too, especially at this price point DD's are laser beams, Geissele is top notch. Geissele parts I would put in every build: ultra duty lpk (especially mag release, take down pins, maritime bolt catch release, trigger guard) and flat face triggers (especially 3gun) their handguards and scope mounts are amongst the very best. Their new BCG and trigger in their complete rifles look to be high end.

Do you know why Geissele choose to not include the SureFire muzzle on the Super Duty MOD1? It is now the HUXWRX Flash Hider.

Does the super duty rifle come with the discount codes for the Surefire parts like the URGI does?

2 жыл бұрын

Other than the 2 things I mentioned in the video, no. Geissele still warranties the rifle and how it functions, just not the finish of the rifle. So you may find that the handguard is outside of the spectrum of color they would be okay with on the full price. Or maybe visible places where annodizing wasn’t so consistent. The trigger’s SN/Model number may be misaligned. Laser etching on the handguard may also be misaligned. Little shit like that. Other than that, the rifle will and still functions exactly as a full price model.

Thinking of getting the 10.3 for an NV setup, to run suppressed, how's the pistol grip looks like an a 2 and I hate the A2 personally

@GunBoxTherapy

2 жыл бұрын

10.3 would be ideal for a NV setup but only if you are planning to run it suppressed. A 10.3, even with the best flash hider, will give away any and every shot you take. If you don’t plan to run it suppressed check out the 14.5. While you may still give your position away, the chances are much smaller with a good flash hider. Plus you can run a stock without paying $200 to the ATF. Regarding the grip: It is quite similar to the A2, however it is also different. The grip angle is not as harsh but it is comparable to the A2. The finger groove is also not as pronounced, lending to greater comfort. And lastly, my favorite part about the Geissele grip is the texture. It’s very grippy but not over bearing where it’ll dig into your hand. It’s just different but similar in a lot of ways. lol

I’d put it at your average weight of a 16” AR. If weight is a concern of yours I would suggest getting the 14.5” barreled version. The muzzle device is pinned and welded on so legally it is a 16” barrel. With a 14.5” I’ve come to find that it may not be much lighter but it definitely feels more nimble and maneuverable compared to the 16” and I put that on a shorter barrel and handguard.

To be honest, I think for what you get as far as materials, upgrades, finish, and just outright attention to detail on everything the Super Duty line is a damn good deal. You will have a hard time, if not a completely impossible time, finding something in this category of AR15 with this much extra included at a lower price. If you do, let me know who it’s made by. The only reason I personally replaced the grip is because I create a lot of redundancy with certain parts of all of my guns. The grip, trigger (if it isn’t a 2-stage Geissele), iron sights, stock (B5 SOPMOD) and light placement are all things that are absolutely the same on every rifle I own. The A22 grip is touted as an upgraded A2 grip and nothing else.
