2 of 5 Great Gun, Horrible charging handle March 23, 2026
Reviewer: Nick from Iowa  
Bought the gun roughly about 3ish days ago and that same day took it to the range and fired 240 rounds through the gun. It is very accurate and everything functioned perfectly. Went out to the range early yesterday morning and went to chamber my first round and the charging handle snapped right at the end that sits over the gas tube. Did some looking and so far have found 4 people among different forums that have had the same exact charging handle failure in the same exact spot. The gun itself is great but if you buy it, either purchase a better charging handle right off the bat or plan to buy one within a week. Still have yet to hear back from the company about the warranty but we will see.

3 of 5 Charging handle snapped during range day March 17, 2026
Reviewer: Kaden Smith from Detroit, Michigan  
Bought this gun 4 days ago it looked really clean and ergonomic so I bought it and 3 days later at 190 shots the charging handle snapped and wouldn’t feed the chamber and I clean and lube my gun every time I go to the range and leave the range so this wouldn’t happen, I was finna return it but instead I bought a new charging handle because this gun is very good and very accurate I’d just hate how that happened not even a week within owning this rifle

5 of 5 wow pleasantly surprised July 2, 2024
Reviewer: Randy Mc from S.E. Ga  
bought this rifle  just for the  a beater truck gun  . The price was right and couldn't find anything bad about it on the internet.  Got it home and was very happy with it , right out of the box. I added some spare thing I had around the house,  scope, forward hand grip, light. Took it out to the range , didn't fire a ton of ammo  but enough  to see this wasn't a beater truck gun . Plans are hog hunting  soon with my Radical AR
Well worth the buy

5 of 5 Nice! January 14, 2024
Reviewer: Greg from Montgomery, TX  
I went to Texas Loot to order a CZ SP01, & saw these on display for a great price. I have wanted to add an AR15 to the vault for some time, so I picked this up instead of ordering the CZ. The BCG is slick & properly staked. It has a good Mil Spec trigger. It has a nice M-Lok hand guard. It has a nice/ergonomic B5 grip & adjustable stock. The receivers are a tight fit w/ no rattle. It came w/ a magazine & a 20 round box of 223. I took it to the local range (for a test run) & put 90 problem-free rounds through it (including a Mag Dump). I cannot speak to accuracy yet, because my red dot is still on order, but I suspect it will be just fine. It is a well made Mil Spec AR15, w/ a nice hand guard & nice furniture.

5 of 5 Great Texan Rifle November 28, 2023
Reviewer: JT from Pensacola, FL United States  
Purchased in 2022. Priced extremely competitive, Second it was built in Texas. Floating barrel, tons of MLok. came with B5 furniture which is what I was going to add to regardless. The Ambi safety is a great add and I love it. Out of the box the rifle shoots great. I added some magpul flip ups and a Radian charging handle. A must have if adding a larger lpvo.  The rifle is slightly over gassed and has no issue firing any ammo I have put in it. The BCG looks well made and gas key is properly staked. I did swap for a ni boron coated one just to bling it out. Trigger is fine as far as mil spec goes and probably the only weakness of the weapon if you had to pick one. But its not bad. For the price you can not beat this rifle and their lifetime warranty. You just cant. This is a great rifle to buy and spend the extra money on making this an extremely productive battle rifle. The quality is superb and the rifle looks great there is literally nothing more to say. Buy Texan, Buy Radical!
