I’d like to let you all know that my 16 inch PredatAR is my favorite rifle. I’m a fairly new shooter and I was able to post a 1.43 MOA 10 shot group at 600 yards with 77 grain Sig match ammo. Pretty awesome results for me and for a rifle with a lightweight barrel. If you are on the fence, I would highly recommend it.

This rifle is SWEET!!! It shoots very nice and is very well built. 5 stars

no less than 5-dillos are deserved here..i’ve had this rifle since 2014 and have enjoyed every minute of ownership..the upper is dialed-in upon arrival from the factory and the lower has hosted multiple caliber uppers from my collection with ease..while owing this rifle i’ve come full circle in my belief that guns should be usable tools instead of safe queens..this rifle started out as a range toy but quickly became a trusted partner on dozens hunting trips throughout texas..its been ‘rode hard & put up wet’ many times and still continues to operate without issue..suppressed, unsuppressed, cheap ammo, the tAR handles it all..yeah, i’m a fanboy but only because it’s easy to stand by such a quality product..oh, and the LaRue factory is about 20-mim drive from my house so i’m a homer too..thanks, Mark..

Well made. Delivered quickly. Customer service was great when I called. Shoots exactly like I expected it would. Looking forward to getting the OBR.

The tAR is my first LaRue rifle, let alone purchase and my absolute favorite/go to long gun. I waited quite a bit for it, but it was well worth it. I've used this rifle for everything from duty, hunting, plinking, competition, and numerous training courses including over the years. It has yet to malfunction on me and has never failed me after thousands of rounds. Groups only seem to get tighter as I continue to shoot it. During an LE only designated marksman course for firearms instructors, I shot a group of under an inch at 200 yards with 55gr Federal TRU nosler tip. During the same course, I was able to hit a golf ball at 500 yards on the second shot. A lot of this sounds exaggerated, but it's the simple truth and a testament to the accuracy of LaRue products. Mark gained my respect and my business forever after helping me last year. All I recommend to people now are LaRue products, continuing to amaze them with the quality produced. As I tell everyone who asks, "LaRue is the tits!"

The 5.56 PredatAR is a phenomenal rifle. It feels good, handles and shoots well, and is rugged, reliable and durable. I've seen complaints about the cost, but when you take the time to really inspect the rifle, and look at the quality of the machining and how everything fits together, it's worth every penny. I am 100% satisfied with my decision and I guarantee you would be too if you join the LaRue family. Side note: The swag "bag" was a complete surprise, and loaded with awesome goodies.

I picked up one of these about 3 months ago. Ordered and it was shipped within a week, nothing to complain about there! The rifle comes with a decent case, nothing spectacular, but keep in mind most companies (including other top tier manufacturers) send their rifles in a cardboard box. The rifle itself is superb machining and extremely tight tolerances. So tight, in fact, that the Takedown Pin requires a lot of effort to free up! On the range I've only used M193 & M855 with an Aimpoint T1. Not the way to test accuracy, but it runs solidly and bullets hit appropriately. Perhaps I'll try it from a bench rest with a Leupold one day to see exactly what I can do with it in that department, but I bought this rifle to run it fast and hard, as the tAR is intended. I haven't had any disappointment!

I have been hunting with my 16" PredatAR for a couple of years now, and hand-loading for it for close to a year. It is a very well-made and accurate carbine. I hunt pigs with it and am confident enough to take only brain shots for instant death and no ruined meat. At this point on my hand-loading learning curve I can consistently place five Sierra Game King 65 grain bullets under 0.75" at 100 yards from a bench rest. My best 5-shot group so far is 0.45". That's with hunting (not match) bullets and with a hunting (not target) 4X-12X scope with a medium coarse duplex cross-hair. That is super impressive! I expect even slightly tighter groups in the future as I perfect my reloading technique. This rifle's initial accuracy started my interest in hand loading and precision shooting, where before I was just interested in hunting. The quest to find the ultimate bench rest accuracy that my carbine is capable of has ironically led me to now be considering a couple of upgrades. First, the non-adjustable Geissele trigger that came with it is fine and very appropriate and useful for most situations. Mine has a 3 lb. first stage and about a 1.6 lb. second stage pull. Obviously, the gun's accuracy reflects the quality of the trigger. But after many hundreds of rounds evaluating hand loads at the range, I wish it was a bit lighter, especially in the second stage. I think I will probably replace it with an adjustable Geissele Hi-Speed National Match Rifle trigger. Had I known then what I know now, I could have ordered my carbine that way, so that shortcoming is no reflection at all on LaRue. The second thing that I am now considering an upgrade for is the RAT stock that came with the gun. Again, it's a perfectly acceptable collapsible stock that I was originally happy with in a hunting weapon, but for target shooting it lacks cheek-piece adjustability and it does move and rattle a little bit. I glued some neoprene to elevate my cheek weld, and that works pretty well, but I will probably replace the RAT with a non-collapsible stock that provides more adjustability and overall stability. Again, I'm sure I could have ordered it with a different stock had I known then what I know know, so again it's live and learn on me, and no reflection on LaRue. All in all, I am extremely pleased with my PredatAR, its surprising accuracy, and its overall high quality. I am very happy with its convenient 16" barrel and have never wished for a longer one. I definitely got what I bargained for. If I had to do it over again I would, only with an upgraded adjustable trigger and stock. I think I need one in 6.5 Creedmoor now!

The PredatAR performed sublimely and the within 1-MOA tight grouping from LaRue is a great benchmark to go from. Some real design, engineering, and manufacturing is evident. Used 69gr with noticeably better results than the 55gr--but shucks, I'll need to shoot more to be sure. :). The swag just plain made me feel good and I will proudly where the cap of this fine American institution. Two rails are better than one, but there no question of if commitment to quality and value.

Products look VERY well made, predatar, qd 104 mount..very pleased, just wish the weather was better so i could go thru a few boxes of shells
