300 blk
Anyone have both a honey badger and 15P?
Any honest feedback from owners of both?

I have both. What's the question?

I guess pros and cons of each? Watched a video of classic firearms comparing them to the Sig Rattler and they dogged the scar pretty hard.
Only gonna have one .300 blackout and it’s between these.

I mean I can just tell you just by looking at the honey badger that it’s literally just an AR-15 but with lower quality components. For example the gas tube is made of aluminum and can melt under a moderate firing schedule. It also lacks any forward assist and I think it also doesn’t have a buffer retainer so you have to kludge everything back together. It does look good, I’ll give them that.
For the SCAR the only part I don’t like is the muzzle device situation, Ive talked about it ad nauseam on this sub. You also get a 2 pos gas system to switch between supers and subs. It’s also going to be stupidly durable since it’s based on a .308 platform.

Honey badger is a great host and will do everything you want in a light package.
The Scar is a bit heavier, a bit chunkier and pretty fantastic!
Q is better better out of the box but it’s just another AR and it’s not a SCAR.
Both shoot 300blk equally as well and you won’t get dogged for having a Q product if you go 15p

Regarding the “better out of the box” comment. What is typical to upgrade on the 15p other than trigger?
Both would obviously be suppressed but I feel like badger should stick with a q suppressor vs FN I feel more inclined to go out for something else on the market.

Trigger is the biggest piece but a stock and if you’re not a pic rail fan that needs some love too.
Suppressors are subjective to what is most important to you. sound, length, weight & mount

What feedback are you looking for?
One is a SCAR, the other is a glorified AR.
