If you want a Geissele GFR Maritime rifle

Primary Arms sent an email saying they're selling the 18" 6mm Arc for 2,300 bucks. I'm not affiliated with them.

Ordered! Appreciate the heads up.

Is it a gen 2.. they just came out with a ambi gen 2 version so might be clearing out older models. Great price either way. After shooting some matches with a GFR style gun...the ambi controls would be huge for sending bolt home with trigger hand and not having to come off with support hand to hit bolt release.

It is a nice match feature. If you’re running somebody else’s Ambi it may take some getting used to.

It looks like primary arms is offering a good price on the gen 1 model # 08-374S. The gen 2 with ambi controls is lited as model # 08-652S on the Geissele website.

I’ve been patiently waiting for the MOD1 in DDC at 16” from EuroOptic. Seemed like the first MOD1s Geissele sent out were in black. Anyone have any insight as to how long it may take for DDCs to be distributed? EuroOptic’s CS said could be months

I had the 18" DDC in my cart at primary arms yesterday, I was really close to pulling the trigger, but I told myself I was going to hold out for the Ambi version. I'm always happier in the end if I don't compromise, even if it means waiting longer and spending a little bit more money.

I have been on the fence between 16" and 18" barrel, leaning more toward 18 as I already have a dedicated 5.56 16" spr type rig, and a 20" LMT 6.5 CM

The Geissele GFR 6 ARC sure looks like it does a great job bridging the gap between a small frame SPR 5.56 and large frame 6.5 CM AR

I would snag one if I didn't have a 6 ARC upper w/ Proof 18" already. That's a good deal on a complete with Geissele's current barrels -- they seem to hammer from every report I've noticed.

I picked up a 16” GFR off gunbroker last night, so I’ll likely be cancelling my order with primary. 16” was the goal all along but the price they offered at primary was too good to pass up.

So you were the one to beat me on that black 16” congrats. Did you end up cancelling the DDC from primary?

 

[CStroud]

Thanks, and yes, they let me cancel it yesterday morning.
