Feets / Collection / My build Carmel setup
Just put the pieces together, havent shot it yet.
Feels fat and plasticky
Wouldnt be my first choice, but pretty good for what we have. I like the ambi controls and the adjustable stock

I think he's likely referring to the top mounted dot. I also prefer top mounted but the HOB math on this will definitely keep you on your toes! That being said I love seeing fully kitted out rifles on here so don't let folks ruffle your feathers.

Here's a word I've never used to describe a firearm before, but is an accurate description of the Carmel:
Tall.

How’s the weight ? Man looks beefier than the online ad photos.

Its lighter than it looks, probably due to the plastic. This is the 16 though

I love that we have these.
Although it looks like you have to turn your head 90⁰ to look through that scope.
Would that be considered "Temple weld" ?

u/Embarrassed-Gur1769 1d ago
No, its pretty normal for lpvo. Cheek piece is adjustable up and down though.

Chunky, but if this is built and runs better than the Makasi, its pretty much a no brainer

Idk why people hate Carmel.
I love FS2000, Italian ARX series so I prefer Carmel’s appearance to Makasi’s one.
Plus Carmel comes from a reputable gun manufacturer who is making guns for armies not some guys with CNC machines in the garage
In fact we have pictures of Carmel prototype being used in military
Yeah it is chunky and big that is why I will put a micro prism 3x on mine not a LVPO
