Just about had this set up how I wanted to be. The only thing I was missing was a longer stock to increase the LOP for my long gangly self.

Seeing all these posts with SKSs in them really makes me regret trading mine off for a Mosserg 500 Mariner… that I never even shot and traded for an Axis, that I sold without shooting. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Gawd looking back I was such a schmuck of a kid. Lessons have been learned the hard way for sure.

Why so?

Proven more on the market plus it can take Ak mags and 300 mags as well so in the future they could release a barrel to match these calibres

Politics aside obviously, isn’t it the other way around? I have both on pre order. Just deciding on build quality right now, but it looks like the CSR has more review and use from their military.

like I said above it takes 762 and 300 mags and the 556 mags so possibility of barrel swap in the future and also I like the design of it more tbh and it’s full aluminum and corrosion resistance the Carmel is reinforced polymer and some reviews says it’s heavier than expected if you look at some YouTube videos but I find them both cool and if we only had the Carmel I would still pre order it I just prefer the Makasi since we have options now and I like the size of it compare to the Carmel
