Nice AR, but even if it included EVERY ACCESSORY (mags, Eotech/Aimpoint, etc) I still could NEVER bring myself to buy a rifle that even wit it's included features is a $3000 AR!!! You could build a rifle with the EXACT SAME feature's in every way from Spike's and come in around $1000-$1500 depending on the vendors you buy from, just won't be a K.A.C. made one. You don't get $3000 worth of gun, you get $1500 worth and a NAME!!! The new COLT??Could get a LWRC M6A3 for less!!!
@reeseman67 It wouldn't have the rounded e3 bolt/barrel extension , longer proprietary gas tube length, balance, ambi lower, nor a 20k round warranty. And they cost 2,000 not 3. I have a spikes lower, just so you know I am not biased, but spikes and KAC are not even in the same realm. My Daniel Defense isn't even in the same realm and it is "better" than spikes.
@reeseman67 This gun has stock ambidextrous controls on it, very adaptable to left hand shooters, that's what makes it so expensive and special. Try doing that to a Spike's tactical lower.
@reeseman67 I think that when it comes to the AR platform you have three options: You can have performance, you can have status and you can have cheap - but you can only have two. I believe in building your own to understand the platform in an intimate way and to figure out what you need/want for your style of shooting. While I wouldn't spend what I would have to spend to buy OR build the rifle in the video either, that thing is really fucking cool, just impractical for my purposes.
@reeseman67 I believe the sr 15 costs 1900 MSRP.. The sopmod alone is worth 200. add in the rail, flip up sights, trigger, your not paying as much for the name as you would suspect. Add in an aimpoint and you could never build an ar of similar quality for the same price.
love the weapons but the commercial is stupid the first guy is speed loading magz but he woudn t have to if he put more than 5 rounds in each one then the second guy has a suppressed ar witch leads you to beleave he plans to snipe some people then it sez professional as rounds hit the sand behind him what professional sniper shoots with out cover i didn t plan on such a long comment but gunny Sargent hartmen woud be very disapointed i know i was great weapons fuckn shity advertising though
Chris used a SR-16 in the "Art of The Tactical Carbine 1" video. I remember the close-ups of his upper said "SR-16 E3" with a lower that has a Magpul logo engraved on the magwell.
@mindlessprimitive if shooting my target more quicker and accurate then the guy shooting me looks funny , then let them set me for a stand up on comedy central.
i wouldnt really say faster but thats how he probably was taught, probably with a few modifications to the teaching as well to make sure the mag comes out of the magazine well
oh i see. to bad its out of range for us regular guys. think they said 2500 for the base model and 3000 for the enhanced version. hope it comes down at least a little. i would love to pick one up.
Ya this guy has 20 to 30 years of weapon training with tactical carbines. He reloads it that way because it cycles the mag away from the gun while setting up to chamber the fresh mag. Faster and Efficient. skiingpaul73 would be in the process of reloading and probably get a couple rounds to the face haha
Hmm... didn´t he said in one of his vids. that the spin isn´t the thing it´s about? I think he said that he just flips the gun to the left to check the camber (just empty mag or jam) and then to the right to get it in a position were it´s just easier to insert a new mag?
If the mag just falls down or flies away ( with just probably gonna happen ^^ ) does not matter...
@ShowyNinja No, he reloads that way because he does a chamber check, then orients the weapon to facilitate insertion of a fresh mag. The fact that the spent mag launches away from the gun is a byproduct of his technique, not the intent.
@ShowyNinja His main intention of rotating the gun 90 degrees to the left is not because it throws the mag out of the gun, it's to make sure the bolt is locked to the rear and not jammed, the flying magazine is just value added to get the mag out without getting stuck. He trains as if it were an active gun fight you can never assume that bolt is locked and throw a good mag into a bad gun.
@IMFDB I don't think it's any more one or the other, making sure the mag flies away instead of falling straight is just as important. I know some groups train to flip the rifle to throw the mag out of the way of the shooter, otherwise if they're advancing a stepping on it (after it fell straight down) they're not on stable ground any more and can't shoot as accurately. Both are equally important thought.
I prefer the surefire suppressor myself.... KACs design threw my zero off 4.5 minutes, while the surefire only raised my group 1.5 minutes.... also the outer perforated heat-sink likes to snag brush... not good when you get into a firefight... almost started a brush fire outside baghdad with a KAC suppressor once....
Naw Remington is only makin the Military version of the ACR. Bushmaster is still making the civilian version. Bushmaster was going to start releasing them in late 09 but now they are sayin first half of 2010. Fuck Bushmaster. I had a M4 chambered in 6.8 but sold it cause I couldnt find ammo for it and the more I handled it the cheaper it felt. I recently bought a Sabre Defence M4 and its sick. Sabre is up there with LMT, YHM, CMMG, Knights, DD, Noveske, and Larue in quality and superiority
Oh wow I didn't know that about Remington... Thats cool. Dude I say the ACR 762 big brother on the cover of some mag at the super market. There talking about that one and they still haven'tlet the 223 one out yt what the hell!! lol
@topher81807 dude im planning on getting a sabre next month! Good to hear you like it. Was thinking about getting a knights lower and matching it up with a sabre barrel but i may just get a complete sabre rifle
If your thinking about a Sabre just get a complete Sabre. The uppers and lowers are CNC matched. Its seriously the most tight rifle Ive ever handled. Theres no rattle and it just feels amazing. The tolerances on the weapon are just so tight its crazy. Knights are amazing but they are expensive as a motherfucker. That was the whole reason I didnt buy a Knights. I didnt feel like spendin 2 grand on a rifle. My $1500 Sabre is just fine.
I got the Flat Top M4 Sabre. Its got Yankee Hill Machine flip up sights both front and rear. I didnt want a fixed front post cause I wanna throw an EOTech on it so I wanted a rifle with flip up sights. If I were you Id buy the M4 Tactical Sabre. Yankee Hill flip up sights and a free floated quad rail from the factory.
@TheGuruofWar hell yeah screw the ACR. If I was going to spend that kind of money Id just buy a FN Scar chambered in .308. I still love my Sabre M4 even though Sabre doesnt exist anymore because they got caught doing a bunch of illegal shit, lol. I threw on a bunch of aftermarket shit on it and Im waiting until I get out of Afghanistan before I throw an ACOG on it....
Mark LaRue, makes amazing products, but gets threatens to easy. ADM and Brobro are catching up, in some ways they beat his products. I have bought LaRue in awhile because of the way Mark acts...I mean c'mon take your BCG offline because some people complained about it...he acts like a kid to much
altho it is basicaly a m4 but with the changes that are featured on this rifle means its an m4 that works :D and if you want to bitch and moan dont do it on youtube whats the point?!
That is a thing of beauty. I've always said Stoners were the Ferrari of the AR world...and whoever you have doing handling your media now certainly know how's to showcase them like one. I've been anxiously awaiting my call from Lawmen's so I can finally get my hands on one. I read recently (can't remember where but I believe it was posted by Jr. or The Colonel) that the E3 was going to be the most widely available KAC product to date. Is that correct?
