Don’t understand why they don’t have an A2 style stock

Like, as for cope it doesn’t seem bad. If it was the times where we were not desperate it would be shit but it’s not terrible given what we have available.

Still, I’ll take the MK or Carmel over it.

There was a newer post talking about the various issues with the Makasi, I hope it’s actually a good gun and not a POS.

If it’s lasted this long in America given how many options they have, then it cannot be that bad.

We can hope. It comes out soon, so we’ll see. It can’t be that hard to make a decent firearm for this country.

Again, I am not saying it’s the best rifle around. I’m saying that between the it (MK-15) and the Carmel, it’s either number is 1 or number 2 in terms of what we can realistically get right now. Will it be flawless? Definitely not. But it’s not a bad option overall.

Still a better track record than crusader if the Americans reviews are to be noted.

IWIs got a good track record if you like the aesthetics

u/beastslayer2563 Jul 22 '26

I don’t really like the look of it. But that’s just me, you do you.

I think it’s just bad QC. I have a friend in New Hampshire who’s a dual citizen who bought one literally to test if it’s worth it to get one in Canada. He said it’s actually decent, however he kitted it the fuck out by switching out all sorts of parts with AR parts, so idk if his testimony is at all relevant to the average consumer

u/beastslayer2563 Jul 23 '26

Maybe I’ll just wait a while, a year, if it’s not banned then, QC might be better then. Really cool concept on paper.

How reliable are you finding it to shoot?

As far as the COMP goes, great!

It hurts to see such high quality optics on a shit rifle like this. That proprietary magazine is an abomination.

u/HumbleAir1632 Aug 02 '26

Why didnt they do an A1 or A2 style stock for this thing?

u/Nearby_Purchase_8672 Jul 23 '26

Damn, how are the options this, Turkish shit, or something tested in a genocide?
