So close to clicking the button but I don’t feel like ending up with another firearm I can’t shoot

And let’s not forget that it’s Lockhart Tactical. Harder to get ahold of than NEA/BCL. Lockhart has a long history on this site of being difficult at best, and downright shady at the worst.
 
The few owners on Reddit seem to have very positive first impressions of this rifle. Surprisingly since everyone thought it would be vaporware.

How do they have such good google reviews? I’ve had good customer service with the owner lately but curious the past problems? There was some negative reviews during COVID due to supply chain issues but anything major?
 
I bought one of the Platinum factory second/demo models. I refused to buy one of the canadian-built AR180s, but I risked the biscuit on one of these because of the DI system and it sharing many if not most parts with the Armalite design. Also I really hope the caliber change kits work out.

I've only put about 200 rounds through it, but that was 200 fairly quick rounds. It definitely got nice and hot. Not a single malfunction once I had the gas adjusted (~10 rounds to do that) and multiple pistol magdumps while hot.
No loose fasteners or set screws on teardown afterwards.

I'm very hopeful, but I'm still holding out judgement until I pass at least 1000.
 
I had horrible issues with the owner a few years ago. Went to order one of the pump action drum mags he advertised as in stock. Thought "wow what a good guy" as I could access a duty discount for my service. 3 months later, nothing has shipped so I give him a call. Guy is super rude to me on the phone when I ask if maybe my order was misplaced. Then admits they never had them in stock and the items are in turkey and he has no ETA. Wouldn't refund until I said I'd just charge back on my credit card. Vowed to never shop there again. Under same ownership still I wonder? Now they seem to only have these guns and nothing else in inventory.

Had an identical experience a few years back (well before covid bull####). I'll never give them another dollar

To clarify, G4C has never let me down. Above comments are about Lockhart Tactical
