    From my understanding Warsports batch test their barrels (as oppose to KAC who individual test each barrel) and you're shelling out 3k for that.

    I have an SR15 and have handled a Warsport rifle, so that's my basis for comparison.

    The KAC is a good value for the features and quality you get. I just can't see what the Warsport offers in those areas that makes it worth $1000 more. It's just a simple cost/benefit question. Even if the Warsport has less muzzle rise, it's only going to be a TINY bit less than the KAC. Is that worth the extra $$$? In my opinion, no.

    Warsport or KAC?

    Well...do you operate? Bro?

    Seriously, I have to say that the KAC makes the most sense. I do not understand the Warsport's appeal.

    Now, keep in mind I have not shot either weapon, so this is a bit of a "bench" review...but...

    -The KAC uses a lighter profile barrel by far. The Warsport is basically a "bull barrel" from stem to stern. I've used "heavy" carbines all day before, and they suck. They really really really suck. Put a suppressor on them, and they suck even more.
    -The Warsport, if it's the one I'm thinking, uses a special gas-block with a Venturi type system to allow it to cycle with a rifle-gas length system. I have heard of issues from multiple people, using them.
    -The KAC is a full ambi gun
    -The KAC has the E3 bolt

    The only technical enhancement of the Warsport...is their wonky use of the rifle gas system. The big, fat barrel is just money-saved because they didn't have to profile it down.

    I see ZERO justification for the Warsport's cost. The KAC? It uses a custom forged lower. It uses a proprietary gas system which seals better, and involves no pinning/set screws to induce barrel stress. It uses an E3 bolt, which is a proven concept.

    I simply cannot see where the money went with the Warsport. CANNOT see it.

    I have a KAC SR15 E3 mod 1 and a Noveske Infidel

    KAC $2500 Noveske $2700

    The KAC is considerably lighter and I mean noticeable difference- like night and day difference.

    The Noveske however, has in my opinion, a way better barrel, and comes standard with Magpul furniture (pistol grip and butt stock) Black nitride BCG and Troy flip up sights and ALG trigger. The KAC comes with A2 flash hider, A2 grip and B5 Systems butt stock.

    The Noveske comes with KX5 flash hider and NSR Keymod Rail while the KAC e3 mod 1 comes with URX 3.1 rail with proprietary rail panels.

    The KAC SR15 is built around the tried and true mil-spec upper/lower while the Noveske has modernized and improved there lowers to accommodate a flared mag well which will NOT except X-Products 50 drum or Surefire 60rd mags. The Noveske uppers are machined to be more aggressive and to flow into there NSR rails.

    Noveske has huge following on social media and with close relationships/partnerships with silencerco, they have launch a huge marketing campaign featuring Noveske Rifles with Silencerco silencers using a combination of 3 gun competitors and hot bikini girls. They are now teamed up with OAF Nation to market a new gun lifestyle clothing line. They are launching a Noveske/SilencerCo. ammo line with Hornady specifically tailored to suppressed 300blk.

    KAC doesn't get too involved in the overall community especially the younger crowd or the crowd who will spend $3500. They are like the Coke Cola of the gun world. Everyone already knows who they are. Not quite as popular as Colt but just underneath them in terms of who's who. They have contracts with US military, US state department, private contractors, and have the kind of money Noveske and Warsport could only dream of. Especially when you have people like Chris Kyle and Marcus Latrell writing books about using there products.

    So, in my own opinion, the Noveske is awesome and they seem to be more in tune with there customers and what there customers want. After all, you get a free hat and scorpion sucker with purchase. However, KAC is lighter and that is what matters to me. So...KAC gets my vote!

    You are speaking of the companies as "companies", instead of just the product. I would add that I have kept an eye on Noveske since I bought my first one, 6 years ago, and honestly, I am sad for the company and where they have gone, and how they got there. Noveske currently should be separate from "John's Noveske", almost the same as you separate 1960's Chrysler from 2006 Chrysler.
