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

I can't agree with this at all We're limited to what we can get because the dumb half of Canada continues to vote for a Liberal government that wants nothing more than make it so you can't own anything. We have new gun owners who never had the opportunity to even own an AR, and now this is their introduction to their new sport/hobby. Our inflated prices for rifles are driven by the weak Canadian dollars, the cost of importers to deal with the process and risks of bringing them into Canada and the fact that the importer and your LGS has to make a little money on top. With our sport being under constant attack by the Liberals and Poly, I'm okay with paying a little extra to help keep our LGS's open. They only seem to be getting closed down, nothing new is being opened, and once they're gone they're gone for good.

You're basically renting this gun for just shy of $3k until it inevitably gets banned (along with the IWI Carmel). I would be amazed if it's still legally shootable by the new year

Ban aside no one would buy this for $3k given literally any other mainstream semi .223 option

Well I guess I'll rent a few. I'm not gonna live in fear of what may or may not get banned. And besides that, it's better to have a gun in my safe, than to have no gun at all.

You do you it's always good to support LGS. I think we're way past the point of "may or may not" though, unless you are failing to recognize a very clear pattern

you're failing to miss the point that you may miss the boat for when you can get the guns you'll need if the time arises that you desperately need one the way this country is going. Wouldn't be surprised if they're throwing dissidents into re-education camps soon.
