Gun and gear reviews Makasi Mk15 reviews

Post image

Sooo since we've all seen some mixed reviews and some concerning QC issues with the R Makasi's that have rolled in to Canada, I decided to reach out to Brigade MFG to see if they were aware of the issues and if the NR rifles would have any of these issues corrected.

Here's their response

No point in contacting the manufacturer, of course they're going to say their shit smells like roses.

I don't really agree. They might not be the best known company, but let's give em a chance. If this post was an inquiry to a well known company people would have a different view. Just my two sense

Brigade has a reputation worse than Palmetto State Armory (which is an accomplishment in itself for a small manufacturer). Just search up "Brigade BM9 problems" in Google and scroll the reviews for a few hours. Mostly QC issues and a gamble if you get a rifle that works.

LMFAO

My Palmetto State Armory mags were so bad that when I ran out of targets I used the mags for targets

Total $hit

Issues aside I will never buy another blow back rifle.

I don't even know why they make direct blowback firearms, its like buying a brand new carbureted car in the big 26.

My buddy in Louisiana has the BM9 and loves it. These guys aren't a Gucci brand, their middle of the way stuff for the average joe. And if the makasi is complete garbage, I'll sell it and get something else.

Everyone used to beak everything made from turkey as cheap unreliable garbage. And now I don't know anyone who doesn't have atleast 1 Turkish firearm. Ive got 4, all been flawless.
