I’m wanting to get a new AR10 in .308/7.62X51 NATO and my local shop is selling a 16” MK2 Repr for $3800 ($4200) after tax and I haven’t seen them priced that low anywhere else. So I was just wondering what the local LWRC aficionados had to say regarding the platform. Also I haven’t owned anything piston operated before so I was wondering what that experience is like in regard to better/ worse reliability. Plus what your experiences are with the company as far as QC and CS.

Looking to get my first AR10. I am not new to firearms or the .308 caliber. But there are just so many options. And with AERO precision being on fire and impossible to find their stuff in stock I’ve started to look at prebuilt rifles. Wondering you guys had recommendations for 20in .308s. That are just good reliability for hunting/200-300yrd target shooting. Looking at about a $5k budget for rifle and accessories (scope, extra mags etc.)

Edit: my local shop has a New LWRC R.E.P.R. MK2 7.62 16” for $3800 (about $4200 after tax) which is the cheapest I have seen them anywhere. Just wondering what the general consensus was on them I’ve seen a lot of mixed reviews regarding QC and poor CS. And others saying they are the best AR10 Pattern rifles on the market.
