High Standards AR-15's

[chambered]

I tried doing a search, but the search seems to choke with the words " High standards". Sorry if this is a duplicate thread.

Does anyone have one the High Standards HSTX6500 or 6501 AR-15 yet ? They seem to be from a good company. I would be curios if they stand up to the brand names of SIG and S&W.


Thanks In Advance

The search might work if you use "High Standard" as that is the actual name. The extra "s" may cause you a problem finding what you want.

I have had 4 from stripped lower receivers. I love them. Just make sure the bolt catch isnt too tight. I few were milled to tight..

I have only seen one and it was at a show, but the fit and finish was as nice or nicer than anything there.

I see you are from Tx as well. Do you like them because they strip and you make money off of replacing the lowers or are because they are sturdy. Sorry i did not quite understand your statement.

Thanks Again

No, they are good lowers. Stripped lowers mean that you use them to build an AR-15 from a parts kit. Its a bare receiver. I built all my rifles from high standard bare receivers, not high standard factory built guns.

ready4shft you like the receivers but not the parts inside the high standard's?

Ive never seen a factory High Standard rifle. Only blank receivers.

hmmm now i think about i havn't either......dad has a highstandard shotgun
very fine shotgun i must say

Hmm.. I am thinking I may give one a try. I have some extra money in the kitty and we all know you can never have too many guns. I was leaning towards the Sig 556 SWAT Model. Choices choices....

I once talked to the owner, and a few other dealers familiar with the product.
They seem to be a pretty fine rifle, and the owner went out of his way to hire a bunch of the old Colt/Armalite guys to engineer/build some of the parts.
So i would have no probs buying one...
