Double star Upper 1/8 twist

[YoungGun]

I'm thinking about getting Double star Upper 1/8 twist. I have a couple of questions.

1. How solid are they?

2. Anyone have one? if so what are the pros and cons?

I have one is 6.5 grendel. It seems built solid and it actually has a very good fit with the dpms lower I put it on. It fits tighter than a dpms upper and the del-ton upper that I have used. I have yet to shoot it though so the range report is still to come. I would buy one. Oh wait, I did.

So I take it only one person has one?

I have a 20" HB 5.56 1/9 flattop upper from them.

It's flawless so far.

I have a DoubleStar upper with a lightweight 16 inch chrome lined E.R. Shaw barrel.

The rifle runs like a top.

Boy, I hope you are more than thinking about it





But they make a great product.. I guess I am a little biased though

I dont know much about double star, but I personally really like the 1/8 twist rate. A Perfect mix between the 1/7 and 1/9 twist which both seem to be the standard twist rates in most AR barrels.
