What’s your thoughts on it I was between this or the IWI Carmel

u/tfldesign 19d ago

I don't know about the Carmel, but the Makasi is nice because you can change the trigger and stock. I think it's also slightly lighter.

How long was the wait I saw some preorders online but nobody has a timeline on the wait…?

10

u/tfldesign 19d ago

I bought it on IRG July 14. We got it 3 weeks later.

u/dannysmackdown 19d ago

How much did it cost, all in, if you don't mind me asking?

9

u/tfldesign 19d ago

$1806.99 USD + GST + $129.10 CAD shipping

u/dannysmackdown 19d ago

Gotcha, appreciate it! Looks like a solid rifle.

u/YDpr99 19d ago

Going to send you a message

u/moonpie_888 19d ago

did you buy the last b5 stock that was in stock?

5

u/tfldesign 19d ago

No, I bought the second to last one. I ordered it two weeks ago.

u/Equivalent-Shoe-1652 19d ago

R or NR version?

3

u/tfldesign 19d ago

Restricted.

u/adrenalineJ92 19d ago

Anybody know where to order the 16” Makasi?

6

u/tfldesign 19d ago

I got it from IRG. You should email them to see when their next shipment is.

2

u/adrenalineJ92 19d ago

Thanks man!

u/DougMacRay617 19d ago

Is this the 18" ? And where did you get the unity diving board riser?

16

u/tfldesign 19d ago

16" restricted from the only American importer. And all the unity stuff is airsoft. :D

6

u/DougMacRay617 19d ago

Whats the difference in their airsoft stuff and regular? Does it still hold zero?

8

u/tfldesign 19d ago

Yep, absolutely. I had taken this off my Raven which had at least a thousand rounds through it with rapid fire. Still holds zero. These are clones. Quality just as good. You can find them on AliExpress or Specprecision.

u/DougMacRay617 19d ago

Thanks il do that

u/thecoolernameistaken 19d ago

Tbh man you can’t go wrong with it it’s just a cnc piece of metal. Nothing for them to really fuck up

u/therowdyirishman 19d ago

It's often worth switching the mounting bolt to something from a fastener/hardware store.

u/BrotherLefthand 19d ago

Black Blitz Airsoft has a lot of high quality pieces that are cheaper than the "real gun" alternatives. I have some of their picatinny stocks. Good stuff.

u/HappyCan7250 18d ago

Sexy. I also think they look pretty great with a picatinny buffer tube to give it the AR look. Excited for my NR to come in in the next few weeks.

u/beastslayer2563 19d ago

How is it?

14

u/tfldesign 19d ago

It brought me back to the good ol' days... Runs like a sewing machine.

6

u/beastslayer2563 19d ago

How many rounds you put through it? Any issues?

11

u/tfldesign 19d ago

So far about 100 within 30 minutes. No issues.

2

u/ianzgnome on 19d ago

Nice job that looks great

2

u/julturbo 18d ago

Any one know if there are aftermarket handguard or AR handguard fit?

2

u/CanadianMultigun 16d ago

very nice and sleek layout there, are you going to try and colour match or be happy with it as a bit of a mongrel?

2

u/tfldesign 16d ago

Mongrel. I might wrap with camo tape too because the handguard gets hot.

1

u/CanadianMultigun 15d ago

I see what you mean, but will cutting off all the ventilation help?

1

u/tfldesign 15d ago

Nope! There are other holes to ventilate.

4

u/Embarrassed-Gur1769 19d ago

So theres no recoil with the hypertap, right?

5

u/tfldesign 19d ago

Zero recoil.

u/DethHed4Real 14d ago

Have you had time to put enough rounds through it to tell if the Q.C control issues hold true?
If so is it a sh!tt3r rifle? or solid & can be bush groped?

1

u/tfldesign 13d ago

It doesn’t seem to have any problems in the 3 rapid fire sessions I’ve had with it. 500 rounds through it so far.

u/360_nutt_slap 13d ago

Mwah. Chef’s piss.

u/Western_Wish4280 19d ago

Anyone be kind enough to know if they are gonna hammer this bad boy anytime? Im scared to make an expensive purchase like this only for the feds to take it away from me

-4

u/Goliad1990 19d ago

Yes, of course they're going to. The people buying them now are the largely the people who are brand-new and didn't own a black rifle before 2024-ish, and they're banking that the feds don't come to collect. Nobody is buying one of these things expecting it to remain legal (or they shouldn't be, anyway).

u/tfldesign 19d ago

I own quite a few paperweights and put tens of thousands down range. It’s about the time we get with it. Pre orders are sold out and I assure you most are not brand new. A lot of us were hungry for a semi auto in the market and we have too much disposable income and not enough brain cells.
