    I've known Jim for a few years.


    I was also one of the guys that said for the love of god bro don't enter the commercial market, it's not worth it.

    We had a good chat last month at ADS's Warrior East show in VB, and he was getting a bunch of traffic.



    I've had a chance to fiddle with some of his offerings, and will be getting one (KeyMod, not MLOK as I am pathologically opposed to MLOK {sorry Drake})

    While I disagree with Jim's business model - it is very nice to see another innovator in AR's enter the scene putting out a high end product.

    LOL, well (as we can see in this thread), you gave him good advice!

    Hopefully Jim realizes that there ARE a lot of civy's that DO appreciate his knowledge and expertise and will continue to build high end AR's.

    DUDE, IT IS GREAT! So I have been spending some time at an indoor range (with the general shooting public). What an eye opening experience.

    Would be interested in hearing more about this if you care to share. Something worth reading itt would be a nice change of pace even if it is off topic.

    Note to self;

    Self, if you ever want to promote an AR, DO NOT, under any circumstances, use the words "Best Carbine Money Can Buy" in the thread title.

    Seriously, the thread title just begs for a huge beat-down. Had the OP titled the thread "New AR Manufacturer" or "Nice New AR", this thread would have turned out completely differently.

    And FWIW, the AR in question does nothing for me. Hand fitting parts means nothing with the AR platform. It was designed from the start to be mass manufactured, designed so that hand fitting means absolutely bupkiss, and is completely un-necessary.

    I'll stick with my BCM Jack Carbine.

    It was effectively saying all the crap you guys have accumulated over the years was a waste of money.
