Makasi, Carmel, Both, or Neither?

[u/yummybunnybear]

Both non-restricted 5.56 short-stroke gas piston semiauto accepting Stanag mags. Both taking orders with similar delivery dates. What is your choice and your reasons?

Edit: So to summarize what y'all are saying: - Makasi for AR aesthetics and compatibility, - Carmel for reliability, - Both if you hate money, - Neither because of potential bans.

Both if I was rich. Neither because I can't afford to buy ban bait.

They can’t ban these guns until the Supreme Court ruling 2027
