Gun and gear reviews Makasi Mk15 questions

Post image

I've seen lots of posts from the NS booth at TACCOM with the the special order FDE Makasi and the regular black one. I heard the FDE one was coming with an exclusive 15 inch handguard, but clearly the black one on display has that too. Did anyone have the opportunity to view or ask any questions regarding it?

I'm wondering if with all the reported QC issues, are the handguards being swapped out with ones that don't have the issues and that's the delay to them hitting retailers?

Any insight would be appreciated.

313 operator was at the booth. I asked him on instagram if all the pre orders are coming with a 15 inch handguard and he said yes. QC and longer handguard is what is causing the delay.

I saw the Makasi at the North Sylvia booth at TACCOM; the rep there said all of NS Makasi's will have the longer handguard. However he also did say there were multiple distributors of the NR version in Canada so he's not sure which stores will be getting which version of the Makasi?

So the early pre-orders, are they coming from Gravel Agency, will they have the longer handguard?

I would think it only makes sense for them to ship all Canadian guns with 15 inch hand guards
