Why buy a Crusader Weaponry rifle? I get asked this from time to time. If I had to give a short answer, “Because they are awesome”. But it just doesn’t quite encompass the total story behind it.
It starts out with the head of Crusader, Joe, aka “Gundoc” on WeTheArmed.com. He’s a guy that knows just how important it is to a warrior that his weapon be both utterly reliable and accurate. Joe comes background with the US Marines and Blackwater. He’s been there. He is soft spoken, because his work can speak for its self. Joe selects the best parts available, then he reworks them and finishes them. Even the smallest parts. They customer can select his/her major components. Handguards, Stocks, Sights, Barrel Length. The lubrication treatment is applied. Then the weapon is assembled and tested.
The permanent lubrication treatment has been tested against Fail-Zero. Our treatment lasted twice as long in independence 3rd party testing.
If the customer wants a custom finish applied to the gun, Joe is a certified Master Refinisher from Lauer Weaponry the guys who make Duracoat. There are other guys that say they can do Duracoat, hobbiests… Joe is one of the professionals and the only one in the State of Utah. So there you have it. Crusader doesn’t just throw parts together like other guys do. The result is a gun that looks awesome, that is made to order, that runs slick and fast, that is accurate and reliable. These are the best AR-15 rifles money can buy.
So what do I do with Crusader? I’m Crusader’s Senior Trainer. I will teach you how to get the most out of your rifle, to push it and you to the limits. For 2011, I am offering a special deal. A Tactical Carbine course for only a hundred bucks with the purchase of any Crusader AR-15 rifle. That is a day of training for roughly the cost of a 250 round bulk pack of Ultra Max ammo. That deal can not be beaten.
Oh, wait. Yeah. I can beat that. With the purchase of Crusader Broadsword rifle (our SR-25 Type) I am throwing in a Free Pass to any Tactical Carbine course. You buy the rifle and you get the course for free. No, we are not padding the cost of the rifle. I’m throwing it in on my own dime. Get your rifle, come get the training.
Oh, one thing I forgot to mention. Crusader has teamed up with BattleComp and we are putting these things on our guns unless you specify something different. It makes a .308 gun shoot like a 5.56 gun, and makes a 5.56 feel like you are shooting a .22LR. These are great additions to your rifle and worth the upgrade.
