Have yet to get her back up in the hills but she is a beaut! Had my eye on this one for a long time and I'm glad I pulled the trigger on er' (so to speak). Well worth the wait. Thanks guys. You really do need to get some bumper stickers.

I’m happy with the assembly and looks great! Can’t wait to shoot it.

Worth the wait (I ordered it when it was on pre-order status). Customer service is prompt and informative.
Solid, no issues with fit or finish, and it looks great. I bought this as a secondary upper for my Bushmaster ORC, and it had no problem joining to the receiver or using the ORC's BCG. I can safely say that accuracy is a non-issue. Even with only mid-quality ammunition, I am achieving 1" groups at ~200 yds. Honestly, the BHW barrel is probably capable of a higher degree of precision than most people (including myself) are capable of shooting without a bench rest or vise.

There were some minor tool marks inside one of the muzzle brake grooves, but they are unnoticeable unless you're really looking closely. That is the only aesthetic flaw I could find on the entire upper.

Overall, I would recommend this upper to anyone looking for overall quality and accuracy. I hope to make more purchases from Moriarti in the future.
