    Precision Firearms Reviews - Custom AR15s

    Anybody familiar with the work that Mark Hostetter does with Precision Firearms?

    They make some very good looking ARs, use top quality barrels, and offer great accuracy guarantees. I'm thinking of having him build me an AR with a tactical upper and more of a match accuracy/long range upper.

    Any experiences with him and/or his guns? Any other suggestions on a good AR gunsmith?

    Thanks!

    I have two PF Grendels. Outstanding quality and accurate. Would not hesitate to order from Mark again.

      ^^^Agree. There is a reason that PF keeps coming up as the first recommendation for precision barrels for AR platform on this forum as well as others. They do exceptional work. Buy once, cry once and then enjoy using it from the moment you receive it without any afterthoughts or regret.

        I had Mark spin up my my current 6.5 Criterion barrel for my build. It shoots lights out. He did miss the delivery date he stated by 6 weeks though, and I was not aware until I had finished this build that I needed a 1mm shim installed on the gas block barrel shoulder (in order to get this rifle to fully cycle). I will once again state that this rifle is a shooter!
        Speed is Fine, Accuracy is final....but accurate hits at extremely high speed is final much faster.
        I don't think you understand, these boys killed my dog!
        Taking the gun off safe increases the velocity by 100%

            Of 4 Grendel uppers I have, 2 purchased and 2 self assembled - the PF is the most accurate. It took some time to get it, but was worth it.

                You are making me want t0 put my 24" PF barrelled upper back on the rifle and head out to the range. Of course on a good day I typically shoot 1 to 1.25 MOA so not quite the same as you.

                  Just ordered one of their barrels in 6 ARC. Got the Criterion barrel, no need for a Bartlein at this time since I am still learning gas gun shooting technique. I will be happy if I can stay under 1 MOA vertical spreads out to 800.

                        I'm more than happy with the items I've gotten from Mark at PF. I have an billet upper along with his BCG on my Grendel AR & a 6mmARC barrel on another AR.
                        I refuse to be victimized by notions of virtuous behavior.

                              I have a 12" krieger barrel from mark and have consistent 8 shot groups under .6 moa at 100 yards with my own loads. He does great work.
