mp168 next generation arms .223

[skipbo32]

anyone know anything about these new ar15 type rifles? they look like they just came out. they have part ceramic finish and command no oil for maintenance. they have a custom noveske barrel. you can see some clips on youtube or their website: nextgenerationarms.com

they run about $2,500 but seem to be worth every penny. they look similar to the sig 516 yet the mp168 is not run by a piston.....it is gas operated like most ar type rifles.

this dream gun seems to solve any problems of cleaning complex parts that the ar rifles have. they shoot sub moa at 600yds.

An AR that doesn't need oil? ....hold the phone.

They run as advertised and shoot like a dream. (I am the gunsmith who assembles all of the rifles). Not only are they accurate but they also "feel" better when you shoot them. Virtually no recoil, zero muzzle climb and dead-on accurate. They are also backed by a lifetime guarantee.

pretty interesting stuff - good looking rifles they've got

Here's a video that one of our Texas customers posted on youtube. He makes a shot with the 5.56 at 800 yards. Pretty amazing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teUnXTs_Rts

My understanding of the video is that its a 6.8 SPC not a 5.56.

Still a good shot though

It looks just like every other AR out their.

The Sig516 is also a joke, Sig's stupid for making it.

Very nice....how much?

Seems a little price. Especially considering that if I bought one I would need to remove all the A.R.M.S parts and replace them with parts from a respectable company

I don't have a problem with companies putting a new AR on the market, the more guns out there the better I say.

"My understanding of the video is that its a 6.8 SPC not a 5.56"

It is not a 6.8 caliber, rather it is a 5.56. The model number is MP168 SPC, named after Mike Pannone competetion shooter. The ammunition used in the video was Federal XM-193 5.56 NATO.

Yes, I agree that most AR's look the same. We really were not trying to reinvent the wheel, rather make a good product perform much better. You really have to shoot the gun to understand why it's different. We are currently in the middle of a new website launch. I will post details when it is up and running. I would also be happy to answer any questions anyone has.
