What really makes a name brand upper or lower any better.

Who is "we" as in name of buisness.

I'm sure members here would like to do business with one of our own.

Thanks, I appreciate that. I wanted to double check with BluntForceTrauma before replying since I didn't want to do anything that could be considered "advertising" without first asking permission. He gave me the go ahead to share (Thanks!) via PM.

I own a small 07 FFL in MN called Six Sigma Arms, LLC. As the name implies, we founded the business with a focus on building the highest quality firearms that we could regardless of what that meant for other factors (cost & time). We started out with a deep focus on defensive firearms and have built a lot of carbines for law enforcement over the years. The majority of our LEO guns have gone to officers who work in harsh weather conditions (like extreme cold) that couldn't get other guns to work reliably. To them, it was worth the extra cost to have a carbine that would run equally well in January as August. We still maintain that level of focus for quality and reliability on our guns intended for defensive use and won't sell anything less.

We actually connected with Bill and team at Alexander Arms very shortly after getting our license sorted out and started testing the 6.5 Grendel and 50 Beowolf. We've been very happy with both but especially with the 6.5 Grendel. Over the years we've been asked to build quite a few 6.8 guns yet, to this date, we never have. Every one of our potential 6.8 customers now owns a Grendel.

Anyway, we'd love to help out the horde anyway that we can. We're continuously setting up new dealer contracts with other companies as there is demand so there is a good chance that we can get whatever you need. Unlike a lot of others though, we don't buy in high quantities so we can't always compete on prices (we could always help with group buys though which could change that quickly). Due to our heritage we do have accounts with some of the best of the best like Schmidt & Bender, Geissele, WOA, Ed Brown, WC, ATC, etc (just to name a quick few). Now that we're building more and more hunting guns we're branching out and adding/testing a lot more stuff than we used to and we've been pleasantly surprised. For example, Primary Arms optics and even PSA uppers (I'm actively testing a pair of 12" Grendels right now that will, hopefully, become deer/hog guns for my kids - generally we won't sell anything that we wouldn't run ourselves). For the most part the "average" components have gotten better over the years. It wasn't that long ago where you could only realistically build a quality gun using certain parts from select manufactures.

Since we're more of a custom shop than anything else, we don't promote much on our website at all. In fact, it's long overdue for a complete rebuild (even a few images have gone missing over the years for various reasons). Feel free to contact me here though and I'll do what I can to get you taken care of. If there are group buys that the horde would like to see, I can see what our options are there as well. Of course, some products have strict MAP policies so (depending on the specifics) a group buy may require some sort of bundle.

Thanks again for the interest.
