I think they have even surpassed Magpul in conceiving and producing innovated top quality stuff that people want (though their pricing philosophy is completely different)
I wish more companies had leadership like this. He is an example of how to run any type of business. Image if someone like Bill Geissele was running the show at Colt?
Geissele makes good quality products - and Iām sure their rifle is going to be top tier - but does the already flooded AR market really need another top tier offering? I think both the market and Geissele would be better served if they invested their resources into other endeavors
His first location was about 5 miles from me (though he is still close by) Most of the local gun shops owners have known him personally for many years and were some of the first to stock his triggers. I was corrected quickly the first time I asked about one of his triggers.
Also, if anyone is wondering what exactly a Philadelphia accent isā¦listen to Bill Geissele. I think itās the worst sounding regional accent in the US and have tried most of my adult life to get rid of it!
A very customizable top tier rifle? Not sure there are that many option for thatā¦especially with his reputation. New finishes and metallurgy. Sound pretty unique to meā¦but yes a flooded market in general.
The model 700 trigger sounds like a dream come true.
I have been studying the Jewell, but it screws together
and that is a deficiency in my opinion for a hard use rifle.
I have also asked Geissele on social media about Glock triggers, and they said they didnt have any immediate plans.
I want to be the hipster and say: āI was into Bill G. before he was coolā. I have the first ALG rail made with MLOK, before magpul told them their slots were wrong. All my MLOK attachments seem to work just fine Of course am running the SSA trigger, and their LPK; but a complete rifle full of cutting edge secret sauce? I dont ever get excited about new rifles (hodge who?) but if this is under 2k, iāll be first in line for a new Super Duty.
Now the SR15 will have some competition amoung the new shooterās that need the best rifle imaginable.
I found this on Gās website. If this is any indicator, the guns will be VERY customizeable. To me this is kind of a bad thing because it likely means one with all the mentioned secret sauce will be far north of 2k. The nano bolt alone is listed as a $250+ add on. CHF barrel? $200+ ect, ect, ect⦠for example a rifle with most parts except the CHF (Im not a fan) would be +$735. Is that 1700+735= 2435? Still a marketable price for everything you are getting⦠but not the bargain I originally thought.
