American Tactical Omni Hybrid Max 5.56x45 NATO 16" Black M-Lok Handguard 30+1 - 16" Barrel, 30+1 Rounds, Synthetic, Black Stock

Well lets first start off with this is my fourth ATI Omni and man was I disappointed to see what I got. QC is definitely down the drain at ATI. Lets start with how dry this rifle was out of the box, never seen one bone dry, not really an issue but that was the first red flag. Second red flag, once the rear takedown pin was pushed out, the only option even after lube is to smack the buffer tube for the upper and lower to separate. Next complaint, handguard wasn't straight and one screw wasn't even tightened so had to fix that, not a function issue but how does the factory not get that correct?. Next, the buffer spring is extremely stiff compared to any AR I've ran including the other three ATI Omnis I've had before. Lastly, polymer missing on inside of the lower. I don't know who thought this was ok to sell at the price point but this rifle should have definitely been lower in price for the amount of issues seen including blemishes and missing polymer. Making me really debate on selling it off to someone and ditching ATI and going with PSA again. I figured I would buy this one because I had never had an issue with ATI Omnis but I guess QC is officially gone and they're just pumping products out for profit. Pretty sure what I received was years old as well because product pictured didn't have the old M4 style stock and that is what I received. Man ATI disappointed me on this one.
