** Your NEA102 build **

Yes, well I am sure if there are issues it will be shouted from the rooftops... this is CGN after all...

Had NEA sold AR's to the US, the ####storm they would have gotten would have been a hundred times bigger and nastier than what happened here.
 
A quick word would be good. It's not like they are trying to contact China (yes I'm hinting at something). I happen to be currently in a place, that thanks to the fact that I can go pick it up (no shipping) has the best price I have found on ammo in Canada.

Just need to separate some bullets from casings, now. And there will be an OD green 102 to assist me in doing that!

I'm gonna need to start reloading, methinks.
 
Nobody ever said they wernt accurate,eigther they work or they don't unfortunatly it's split down the middle.

They've had some ####ty rifles - but split down the middle? What percentage of Savage 10TR buyers got guns that couldn't zero at 25m? That's a god damn bolt gun, literally a stone club level of sophistication to make compared to an AR15.
 
Let's be honest, I will be surprised if the 102 even comes close accuracy wise to the kel tech RFB I had that would shoot 1moa with factory premium ammo. Going off how other nea products have performed in my hands, 3moa is my guess

Have there been any accuracy claims or test targets released?
 
I understand the dust cover complaints. Look at all the other ####ty rifles with the right side of the bolt assembly exposed. AK, sig, FN FAL, SCAR, ACR, CZ. A war has never been fought or won with any of those unreliable POS

Sign up on the Voldemort forum (I'm surprised that watermarked image hasn't gotten someone infracted). We've had some back and forth with Jeff of NEA

"The NEA25 has won competitions on a national level in France and NZ. Pics are on our facebook page. The 102 is a sub MOA gun, it has shot sub 1/2". We were actually told not to waste time making the NEA102 work with Norinco ammo and other low cost rounds. We persevered, mostly because we know some of our over seas clients may be at times forced to feed them what ever crap it is they find on the desert floor."


So - claims have been made

Interesting. I haven't been following too closely but I'm surprised they haven't been plastering that everywhere.

That's really impressive. Except for the 1/2" with no reference. A shotgun can shoot 1/2" if the target is close enough lol.

Well they did post it on pretty much the only other active Canadian firearms website. But I get it, CGN is the centre of the universe for Canadian gun stuff.......

They did an interview with a magazinge or organization or something for Facebook and answered questions like Does it come with a magazine? They never once mentioned accuracy potential and already people here on CGN are doubting it.
 
FWIW, I have a number of AR-15s, and the most accurate, by far, is a NEA.

I would concur that an NEA is a good stand alone platform. My issues have been in how it doesn't play well with other platform builders. If you just run it as it comes it seems to work just fine as a stand alone rifle... great barrels. It just does not seem to be milled to accurate enough tolerances to reliably and repeatedly interchange with other manufacturers parts and components. When your dealing with a the Lego of rifles QA/QC in tolerances is key and is an area where NEA has proven to be consistently and more to the point still even recently (for me 2016) sorely lacking. But if you run it by itself you'll be golden... its a fine rifle. I'm looking forward to getting one :)

I am not doubting, I am going of personal experience with other nea products, if it shoots .5MOA (as claimed online) I will be pleasantly surprised as rifles for 3 or 4 times the money are unable to do that

They said it HAD shot .5 MOA. My rifle HAS shot .75 MOA with Norinco ammo and I keep that target on the wall to remind me that sometimes the stars can align just so. And my bolt gun has put 5 rounds in one hole at 200m, but only once.
If this rifle can shoot MOA - 5 round groups at 100yds in 1" or under with Fed Gold Medal Match with regularity (without breaking) that'll be more than sufficient IMO.
