You realize that if you buy enough AR type parts, you can get whatever logo you want stamped on them.

Aero precision is about as good as it gets, never heard of the other guy.

I wouldn't blink at aero, but my only experience is with their AR15 stuff, not AR10, I have no reason to doubt anything of theirs.

There's a pretty good chance that the other guy is just rebranded Aero Precision anyway.

Use Aero or Ballistic Advantage for a .308 barrel ( same barrel) I have used both in .223 and they are great shooters, Aero owns Ballistic.

I assembled an M5 out of mostly Aero parts with a Ballistic Advantage barrel as they were very inexpensive at the time. Threw in an Aero unmarked BCG and never headspaced it. It works perfectly. It's very accurate for the short ranges I've used it at. Buy their LPK for sure. Everything else is DPMS. Rail height is DPMS high profile. Midwest Industries has those at affordable prices. I am unfamiliar with the other guy.
