I wanted to start a thread regarding my ultimate rifle company and how much of
a fannoy I am for Larue Tactical items and rifles. They seem to have done it again
by making a full on bada** rifle that is designed the way I have wanted to design a rifle for quite some time now.
It has almost every option I have wanted in my "ultimate" AR15

Let the drooling begin (http://www.laruetactical.com/costa-edition)

Yea I got the email this morning. $3000.00 and there were only 10 left at that time. I'm sure they are all gone by now.

3 large and doesn't even come with sights, the light or the laser.

Maybe I'll stamp Travis Haley on my current gun and sell it for $2500 WITH sights.

The laser alone runs over $1500.

LaRue makes a great rifle. I have both an OBR light and heavy.

I sure wish I could have one one day. $3k is a lot of dough, but in the end I think
it will be more then worth it. [M2][Beer]

Nice looking rifle (weird color though, what is that, bronze?)

Larue makes some nice looking gear, but their prices are ridiculous. I'm sure it doesn't shoot any straighter, faster, or further than a rifle that costs 1/3 of that.

On the page provided, it doesn't mention the laser in the specs. And it says shown with optional attachments.

OBR? What's that stand for
Obnoxious Black Rifle.

Does it look nice sure. However anyone here could do one at home without the "Name" for a few K less.

That is the buffugliest weapon I think I've ever seen...are you guys being sarcastic? As George Carlin once said..." nail two blocks of wood together, give it a name, and some schmuck will buy it"

That is where you are incorrect. Have you ever owned a Larue product? I would highly recommend his LT104 Scope mount. It is my favorite part of my AR.

I have only fired one fo the their stealth uppers and I also that day was able to fire an
LMT and a Noveske. The Stealth was far more accurate then the the rest.
The craftsmenship was noticably better then the others. IDK if its due to my eye for details
but that is what I felt for craftsmenship. As far as the accuracy, I did shoot all 3 and I was far more accurate then the other 2.
LMT and Noveske are damn good rifles and Id own one without a second thoughtfor what its worth.

Oh and for $3000 that's just a rifle and some magazines. Not the accessories!

I'm pretty happy with the frankenAR I put together for about $1200, but the only thing I can compare it to is the POS M16A2 I had in the Corps. I've never shot one of these high-dollar rigs, so I'm just talking out of my ass anyway. I'll come shoot yours when you get it though [Beer]
