Personally I feel like I’ve liked the reviews I’ve seen of the makasi just slightly more, and I know the AR15 and FAL platforms have both been exhaustively tested all over the world for decades. If you’re feeling indecisive it may be worth waiting to see some domestic reviews though, you don’t wanna blow a few grand on something you’re going to be anything less than completely satisfied with.

Not sure about the Carmel. But the Makasi has been out in the states for a bit and has several reputable reviews on it already.
