Buy recommendations Backland Hunter Elite - Thoughts??

Yeah yeah I know it’s likely just another cope garbage rod…but let a man dream lol. Anyone think it could be decent?

Sounds like the elite features a heavier buffer and spring, as well as some changes to the bolt carrier. Could the improvements make this thing at least somewhat reliable out of the box?

I’m sorry but if you buy another crusader product at this point with their track record, you kinda deserve what you get lol

It's kinda too bad it's not a different company making them. I wish MRA would build something like this since their QC and customer service sounds great, but maybe they figure they've been doing well with the Renegade and don't want to attract the attention of the government. 

But if literally any other company made this gun, id be very tempted. I actually really like the look, at least for a Canadian cope gun. I just have heard way too many horror stories of Crusader fucking over guys on warranty and sending out broken guns to trust buying from them. I wish someone else would make something like this. Hell, even Turkey would probably handle the QC better.
