The industry will naturally purge itself of companies that are out of touch with the buying market, make product that is not a good value, and that are run poorly.
What we will be left with is the better all around companies. Like KAC, be like KAC. Knights did not ramp up production to suit a false market, KAC is smart. KAC developed new and innovative features and makes a quality product. KAC SR15 rifles, while expensive are a great VALUE.
KAC basically did the opposite of Daniel Defense. Don't be like Daniel Defense, Daniel Defense is dumb.
KAC is well positioned to become a player in the commercial market if they can execute on a sales/marketing strategy. Historically speaking, that has been a struggle for the company, or at least not a priority. They have some of the most innovative designs and intellectual property in the industry, much of which is completely un-utilized. I have an enormous amount of respect for that company and what they have done for the American warfighter, much of which will never see the public light of day. Their decision to exhibit at the NRA Annual Meeting this year shows me they are finally ready to service the civilian market, which is great news for all of us.
