No, it is like comparing a Toyota Tacoma to a Toyota Tacoma TRD model that is priced at 3x as much. Are there small improvements? Yes? Are you getting 3x in performance? Likely, in almost all circumstances, no, you are not. A Ferarri is a race car with race car parameters. A Camry is an eminently reliable consumer automobile. The MRGG-S is $2000 worth of parts and a performance (accuracy) requirement upsold for a Government contract. There is very little "proprietary" involved in it, and very little that distinguishes it from many similar offerings, other than SOCOM viewed it as the "most bestest" and in winning said "most bestest" distinction, just like the MRAD or a bunch of other military contract weapon offerings that can also be sold on the civilian market, Geissele earns the right to charge an obscene amount for it, and still have happy customers, when they deign to offer it for sale, in assuredly limited numbers. Much like the FN SCAR-H, LMT MWS, KAC SR25, etc, etc. It is just Geissele's turn. It is a good looking rifle, but it is still a ~$2000 large frame AR.Not even close to the same thing. Like comparing a Camry to a Ferrari. At least educate yourself on the product and its capabilities before making wild assumptions.
