Thread: Here's the beef

I know everyone wants to know what my problem with Mark LaRue is.

Other than being a pretentious jackass, an attention whore, and a whiney biotch, he never answers questions and I refuse to lick his testicles like his followers on barfcom.

The man makes a decent product, I will give him that much credit. Are his products the end all be all of AR accessories, no. Does everything ever made to go on an AR need a throw lever on it? Does a fixed Iron sight need a throw lever? Once you have your vert grip in the position that you want it in, how many times to do need to loosen the throw lever and move it again? Do you REALLY need to take your red dot off once you have it on and zero'd?

A lot of people say "he does a lot for the troops", "you get free **** in the box when you order", "he gave Cali 12 grand for their fight". What people dont know is that he donated a certificate for a rail for a Sniper Challenge out at Creekside and when Fletcher Sims won it and called to claim his prize he was told its not valid. Oh want to know who Fletcher Sims is, he is a former AAC employee and this was right after the whole AAC blow up from SHOT show. The whole 12 grand to Cali, how long did he say "FLUCK Cali. I am not selling them lowers, or mags", I look at that 12 grand as a way to try and buy back those who said "FLUCK LaRue". Do you REALLY think that stuff they throw in the box is free? If they didnt throw that stuff in with your order how much money could you save? It has to get paid for some how, do you really think that he is going to take away from his bottom line just for you?

Now that you have learned that Ill tell you some more details. Back when ML rolled out the OBR, formerly the OSR, he said that the rifles were shooting "real small groups" at 1000 yards. No problem, I simply asked just how big the groups were that they were shooting. Now at 1k yards a 1moa group is 10", I think that is pretty acceptable group for a rifle shooting factory ammo. He never would say just what size groups they were, just that they were real small. I asked what ammo they were shooting and was told it was M118LR ... the military long range ammo. I asked him what the muzzle velocity was out of his guns, never would say. Oh I forgot to mention, these real small groups were all shot at over 5000 feet above sea level as well.

He has told an arfcommer to come visit him and to make sure to bring ID so the cops would know who is laying on the front lawn after being shot with 00buck. And that is perfectly fine with the owners of barfcom, they see nothing wrong with that.

What got me my first time out on barfcom was posting a certain video that is an OFFICIAL video released by LaRue Tactical. For those that havent seen the video YouTube - LaRue Tactical 7.62 OBR (Optimized Battle Rifle) 100 Round Dump go have a look and a laugh for yourself. What has gotten me the latest time out is really bovine fecal matter. There was a thread in the LaRue forum about a guy who was having a problem with his stealth upper throwing the first round out of the mag when shooting for groups. I called it a hand chambered round, since the rifle's gas system was loading the round into the chamber. The first round is loaded by hand, either by pulling the charging handle or if the charging handle is already back by releasing the bolt hold open. But to me it is a hand chambered round.

Yeah, true, but my comic one is good. I want Outsyd to see it.

I didn't like the e-penis one.

I liked the other two.

But I feel like neither really fully captured what happened...

This message here doesnt explain it all either.

I just do not care for him at all and when someone says "your claims are really unimportant and dont really mean a thing because they cant be repeated outside of the small test parameters" people dont like that.

I dont think that Mark himself ever complained about me ..... it was others that did.

Now Mark did have a thing for Seth though....I think it was Seth.

He WENT after that guy.
