Subject : DoubleStar Corp. Versus The "Big Boys"
There
is a misconception, especially in the law enforcement community, that
the rifles produced by the "Big Boys" are superior to Doublestar rifles. Nothing could be further from the truth!! Here's why:
Experience :
"The "Big Boys" have been making these rifles forever." DoubleStar is a
newer manufacturer but it's sister company, J & T Distributing, has
been supplying Mil Spec AR-15 parts to the community for 25 years. This
is longer than many of the "Big Boys" have even been in business.
Barrels :
Some of the "Big Boys" claim to fame is their rifles have chrome lined
barrels. Chroming is a military application necessary to prevent
corrosion inside the barrel during wet or very humid conditions when
cleaning is not always possible. This may be a valid concern for some
departments. The trade-off to chroming is a drop in accuracy. Although
every barrel is unique, in general, a chrome-lined barrel will be less
accurate than the match barrels DoubleStar uses as it's standard. There
is nothing magic about chrome lining, it is old technology. If your
department requires chrome-lined barrels, DoubleStar will provide them.
Parts :
"The "Big Boys" make all their parts in house." Not so! Some of the
"Big Boys" make the key components in house and buy all other parts
from Mil-Spec venders and some "Big Boys" buy every single part from
these venders. There is nothing wrong with this. The wheel does not
need to be re-invented. Some of these suppliers have been making AR
parts since the Vietnam War. They completed the long manufacturing
learning curve decades ago. Of course the machinery used has been
updated to the current CNC equipment allowing even closer tolerances to
be concisely held. DoubleStar buys the best U.S. Mil-Spec parts
available for all of its rifles.
Product liability insurance : "The "Big Boys" carry better insurance."
We
do not think so. To the best of our knowledge there are only a couple
of insurance companies left in the U.S. willing to underwrite a
firearms manufacturer. The plans we looked at seem to be about the
same. DoubleStar carries it's insurance through Joseph Chiarello &
Co., Inc. The company has been insuring firearms manufactures for 22
years. Also, all the manufacturers of our major components carry their
own liability policy.
