Geissele 16” AR mini review

[Peakbagger46]

Picked up a lightly used Super Duty. After taking off the Holosun it came with, I slapped on some Troy irons and my Kahles 1-6X and switched out the furniture to BCM. Once a good zero with the irons was established, the Kahles got slapped on via QD mounts. Some 5 round groups while zeroing at 50 yards:

Today was some actual training/fun stuff now that the carbine is all sighted in. Up drills felt fantastic with the gun being extremely soft and flat during recoil. The outstanding trigger made 50 yard offhand headshots a breeze:

Very impressed with this guy so far, it comes well outfitted with various useful upgrades. I got it free via Cabela’s points on my business card, otherwise not sure I would have been able to bring myself to spend $1900.

Between this and my Daniel DDM4V7 (light setup with an Aimpoint micro), bases are covered for AR needs/wants. The Daniel has been fantastic but I did upgrade the trigger to a Geissele.

Guns and toes, gotta love it!

Glad you like it.

Sweet Teva tan to rival my own! Nice rifle and great shooting! I have a Geissele upper and it’s just bubbly. How’s the Kahles 1-6?

The Kahles is great and has very convenient holdovers out to 500 for my 77 grain loads. Great eye box on all magnifications and very forgiving/fast on 1X. The illumination isn’t super bright but it’s not really necessary with how the reticle is designed.
