    Our guns are not for everyone. However in a performance based competition, I will guarantee our gun will beat all the other 16" 7.62mm guns on the market.

    We sunk a lot of R&D efforts into the SR-25 EM Carbine - we are proud of the gun. However we are not forcing anyone to buy it.

    As you should be. It's a nice Rifle. I just wondered how it is 2 grand better then the Larue OBR....that's all...not trying to ruffle your feathers or anything.

    Mark makes a nice gun, it will be interesting to see if he can kick out 200+ a month at that cost and keep the same quality.

    If your going to bet your life on a gun, $2 grand is nothing.

    For a casual shooter that may not need his rifle to be able to fire 1,500 rds suppressed before cleaning and maintain subMOA accuracy. Some guy on a hill top in Afghan may

    Interesting trend being observed by LWRCi REPR owners--> Their selling it. Wonder why?

    Kevin, I have been taking that same aspect when i look at weapons now. It is easy to justify the price when you consider your life. I for one ordered the LMT, but that is what i want. I can always keep my sights torward KAC if i desire more.

    I'm in agreement re: Knight's SR 25 EM but, SR 25 EM is not available in People's Socialist Republic of Kalifornication (being such an evil rifle & all.)

    I have a LEA working on that solution etc.

    Noveske's N6 AR10 (DI) rocks and usually people have not actually owned or shot one but rather embellish/prevaricate what they have heard/experienced from Armalite & GEN 1 mag problems.

    It eats up all the 168 & 175 I shove into it.

    Checkmate rectified the problem w/ gen 11 mags as has been pointed out several times. Those mags are robust, plentyfull, reasonable priced and dependable.

    MY N6 gives me 1 to 1.5 MOA which is superior to my FALs. Sage EBR w/ 18" Krieger built by SEI has the accuracy but a heavy beast & not pragmatic to lug around on PSD type work.

    NF has performed well for me as I own several of their optics.

    I can only surmise that they will follow suite and produce a 1X6 / 1X8 etc. scope soon. Makes sense and would be the HEAT.

    I'm waiting to T&E that Leupy 1 X 8 optic as well looks viable sans the weight issue etc. (But good glass is heavy & that variable range does need more lens elements/glass to function)

    I heard via a mutual friend regarding your SR 25 EM.

    "Good on Ya" even if it costs' you a Kidney !

    Hoplo, you only heard about the "one" that I bought...not #2 inbound..lol. I love Noveske but damn, they are hard to get a hold of!!! I'm just a rifle lover and the 3 companies we speak of put out top notch stuff. Accuracy to me (along with battlefield reliability) is paramount to me. I want a tack drivin, knock down weapon that'll just keep on running with as little hassle as possible. Maybe I'm looking for the "Holy Grail" of battle rifles but they can be had with with the companies we've mentioned...or build your own. Oh Hoplo, just thought about it, the KAC MK11 and MK11 Carbine maybe legal in "Commie-fornia" due to the fact that its marked as such and not "SR25". Kevin B would know.

    Yup, sure is!!! It , to me, represents the pinnacle of 7.62 AR platform technology. KAC has had a serious "product improvement" program ongoing for quite sometime with these platforms. They are tweaking the shit out of them and producing some kick-ass rifles!!
