OMG. I like seeing pretty girls as much as everyone but, but. Is it because I'm getting older that I'm embarrassed for Noveske?

You mean this one?
I would want to say the DD wouldn't be more accurate due to components made for durability instead.Depends on where you want to go? Expensive to me means more accurate. If not
what are you paying for? A name? Reliability is expected even in a cheap build.
The proof is in what is winning at the match.
I have been shooting High Power competition for +30 years. We don't see these
Daniel Defense or similar exspensive rifles on the firing line. What makes the
difference in accuracy is the barrel and trigger. Top competitors are using
Compass Lake Engineering(CLE) or White Oak Armament(WOA) with Krieger/WOA barrels.
These rifles are capable of sub .5 MOA out to 600 yards! You can put a WOA
or Krieger barrel on your cheap upper and shoot shoot .5 MOA with good ammo.
To me it is about results. If there is no difference in accuracy of an exspensive vs
a budget build your are getting hosed.
I've had a ah-ha moment with a recent purchase that factory made AR15s can be very nice when purchased in the mid to upper level.
I used to have a bunch and have slowly gotten down to a handful. They are all home builds. I was thinking a really nice factory gun would be a change. Like a Daniel Defense or similar.
Would you kill three to get one nice?
Kind of like selling three Toyota Camry to get a Supra.
Thoughts?
How bad do you want your "upper shelf" AR rifle?
If you are happy with how your home built rifles work and shoot , would you regret selling or trading something off , that works fine , for something that works the same , but has a "cool" or status name?
I do however , understand the desire for a "upper" shelf or custom gun...they can, at times , give you many features that you just can't find anywhere else.
While not AR type rifle...each gun below has a different feel and use ...but to many folks the all just look like the same old antique gun.
Some of the guns are indeed shooters and some are just for study...but the enjoyment I get from showing and telling about these guns is immense.
Not all rifles are equal to the same task...and having a dedicated gun to a certain task can make sense....
That said I do believe in the old adage of : "Beware of the man who only has one gun..."
Everyone should have a favorite rifle that they turn to and won't let them down.
Your home built rifle may have features you can't get with off the shelf model , even a upper shelf one.
Lastly in this long ramble , I have traded and sold many old and new guns to get this collection...some guns I have traded off with no regrets...others are the "one that got away..."
And more to the point do you really want advice from a guy who has a table or two that looks like this?...

I guess it'd be nice to have a "high-end" carbine but to me, an excellent handgun that one has mastered is much more important. You are not going be afforded the luxury of receiving notification and given the time and opportunity to set up your gun emplacement to decimate the ravaging hoards.. because your rifle is pretty much never with you and your handgun is.

If memory serves I believe it was just the HANDLE that was made by (and marked 'Mattel') creating the belief the rifle was MADE by Mattel - but the mark was later removed.and even Mattel
I pointed out in most cases, I don't believe most of the young guys have the money to buy quality. I didn't as a young man but the guns of my youth were probably better than the guns of today are in general. Again just opinion but life is full of "good enough" and no need to find better. Over time in my own life I have learned to appreciate better guns, I still haven't shot them all but you can really see the difference on paper.
Inspector Gadget!I would say I have a rifle in arms reach 90% of the time... One of the benefits of being self employed
When I was a kid an uncle - in - law had a pair of Browning Lie'ge Exposition Grade O/U shotguns - these were not really 'guns' - they were gold and the highest grade of wood ever found shaped into shotguns - they were essentially museum pieces.I adore high end shotguns! Fit and finish to the max... beautiful wood, silver receivers, gold triggers, HQ engraving, custom stock and comb.
they were essentially museum pieces.
