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

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

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.

Chat, are we cooked?

Honestly I really wanted this rifle to be a winner. Especially the comp version because I kind of like how it looks. I kinda don’t mind the scatter odd ball rifle. But it has an insanely poor track record it’s best to not waist money

u/Greedy_Crow_5922 2d ago

How reliable are you finding it to shoot?

u/marston82 2d ago edited 1d ago

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

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