From a manufacturing process....
Each rifle is assembled from start to finish by one person. Great pride and care goes into each build, as once a sub assembly is finished, two other sets of eyes are providing QC before the next portion is started. Often times our uppers require a thermal fit before final torque of the barrel nut. Proper staking, as well as alignment of rec-ext we go crazy over. The rifles are then fired and cleaned before packaging.
As for feedback from professional end users, just ask around. It is not my place to single any individual or team out out of respect.
No it's not an inexpensive carbine, nor will I apologize or belittle anyone on justification for the value. It's an expensive gun to build pure and simple. Parts, labor, shipping, FET, etc... It all adds up. I appreciate, and get why guys favor one brand over another, hell I have 6 KACs, handful of Jonny's guns, and a crap ton of Colts. I see the merits and faults in all. Not trying to sell you on my brand, cause it is not for everyone, but if your in the market I would appreciate an honest look.
If you have any questions, please call anytime, and I will do my best to accommodate.
Cheers,
Jim Hodge
