Buy recommendations Adler AD500A

Seems they’re selling out stock, so I’m just wondering if anyone has any feedback or reviews on them so far. They seem like great bang for the buck! Really don’t want to get killed on another 3k rifle 🤣

I would trust this about as much as a Backland Hunter, but it's about half the price of a Backland Hunter. So make of that risk what you will.

Eh the new comp actually runs not bad, so long as you dont play with the gas. A customer wanted me to mag dump it for him a few times before shipping it out to him and i had it running fine out of the box.

Plus crusaders really pushing that lifetime warranty they pay both ways thing now (i even had them on the phone at 12 am ontario time to help a customer recently which im ngl impressed me)

Wouldn’t doubt their warranty is great. Not really looking for something that I will have to make endless warranty claims on to get it to run right, obviously only in the event I get the bad apple of the batch and with my luck very likely lmao. I go out to shoot maybe 5-6 times a month and want something that’s not a kill on price and not much of a headache when I take it out. Kinda like a car, don’t want it always in the dealer for recall work every month when new.

For sure. From what ive read online/what Corie at crusader has told me, if it does go in its only ever once and its usually cause the gas gets touched when its disassembled. I guess some guys try to tune it like they would an AR but its running a benelli style gas system
