Looking at the ADCOR B.E.A.R rifle. Currently in 5.56 but I hear they are think of .308. Anybody have one and what type of accuracy are you getting. They claim it's a MOA gun. Just curious if anybody is running one and what they think of them.
ADCOR B.E.A.R Anybody have one?

Re: ADCOR B.E.A.R Anybody have one?
I like the way they did the charging handle. I think that they could have gotten rid of the buffer tube if they had wanted to and lightened the carrier mass. I also think that with piston AR’s it would be a good idea to move to a stronger bolt design. Keeping the original charging handle in addition to the rail mounted one is a mistake, it would be better if it was gone less gas back in the face. I don’t really like piston AR’s they are seem like abominations to me. Although they are slowing evolving in the right direction, but when their evolution is complete they won’t really be AR’s any more. Young Manufacturing is working on the ICE-15 which I think is a better idea.

i don't understand what you are referring to on the type in bold.
i was completely hyped up (ecstatic) to get one a few months before their release. but over at arfcom, adcor wasn't quick to answer questions and sometimes ignored them altogether. i don't care if they were overly busy or not. in fact, search ANY gun forum and you'll find the same. that left too many loose ends and F.U.D. with potential consumers. i'm not saying the guns aren't pound for pound the best ar's since sliced bread, but the lack of interaction gave me just enough reason to back out. i was even holding out for their "elite" with FN barrel.
then i kept seeing what seemed to be fake accounts being created with low post counts with people chiming in how wonderful the weapon system is. that threw up a red flag with me. sort of like possibly adcor themselves were stooping to a new low. i have no facts to prove it was or wasn't them, but they failed to post up and clarify or verify such posts. so i backed out. for now.
i may give them a go in the future, but honestly, they've been out for awhile now and you'd be hard-pressed to find any reviews on them. i was waiting for the multitude of reviews to flow in shortly after release, but they never came. so for me, i started looking into non-piston bravo company or go expensive with the likes of lwrc. but i'm still undecided.

Re: ADCOR B.E.A.R Anybody have one?
Maybe it’s only really a problem DI. Although I know people who have piston AR’s and gas buster charging handles... The RRA LAR-PDS looks nice also as an alternative but I don’t think it has a free floating barrel.
