Brigade Makasi MK15 We're back in business!!

I pre-ordered through RDSC last night. Yes, it was full amount - but at least they are (so far) the only vendor I saw that is guaranteeing pre-order pricing.

Compared to the Crypto and R9, this at least has legal standing as of pre-order time. Hard to pass up!

All you FRT fans realize that the horsemen can reclassify that at any time, with no reason given, right?

Exactly the reason why I am not going to bother seeing if I can rent one for IDK 1- 360 days from now or sooner.

Not f'in renting a gun. And there is no work around anymore with their stupid portal crap as I have been informed of.

The point of this is pointless. We all know the Gravel road cowboys and the Nat supportes will have this banned before the ink is dry.
Then the whining on here and then the when do we have to hand it in questions,.

I wish I was wrong. I wish I could be left the f alone and allowed to enjoy my sport just a little.
I wish we could make the Antis lives a living hell to teach them a lesson and $hit all over anything and everything they love to make it as miserable to them as it is to us. Maybe Just maybe then they might back the f off.
 
Brigade is a small company. I hope that they can handle these orders without deterioration in Q.C.
The videos I've seen have alot of rapid fire in them, but none of the ones Ive see has done ANY grouping.
Which leads me to a real pet peeve: these guys shoot 300-500 rounds and they don't bother doing any bench shooting to give us an idea of expected accuracy. Unbelievable IMHO.

Also, a FN FAL legacy style handgaurd would be really nice on this rifle. The Makasi would then look like an older Imbel (Brazil) lA2, basically an FN Para in 5.56!

I probably will buy one myself when it is sitting in stock in store if I see one in real life, simply I am a sucker of black rifle.

out of curiosity I look around in the US, no one seems to have this thing in stock. There isn't any used ones over on gun broker. The manufacturer quoted a 3 weeks lead time.

I suspect this is a bit of a dead item within Brigade and they only make it if a distributor places an order, and probably none or few came after the first one after the initial launch. So the big gun shops have them in the catalogue but none available for order. Canada might have just single handedly saved this gun from the chopping block and cleaned up the part bins.

Let's hope once the part bins are cleaned up, there is enough economy for them to re- fill the part bins that are made by subcontractors. Waiting for subcontractors are the bottle neck for subsequent orders.

In my worthless opinion, whether it has an frt number or not is irrelevant to me. If they ban it, they ban it regardless. I own a couple domestically produced guns without frts (not the crypto) and the fact they don't have a number made no nevermind to me.

Correct. But the knights templar larper played games with technicalities of it and everyone elses peepee got slapped for it.

I wouldn't sweat accuracy too much. It's likely a milspec barrel. It won't be a benchrest competition rifle.

However, if it stays solvent, you could upgrade to a competition barrel to get a little better performance out of it.

So what? It complied with the law.

I know this is a controversial take, but if you read the fine print of the Crypto's FRT, you'll find that it was banned as a "retroactive variant" of the AR-15 (the "legal authority" is Para. 87), similar to how the ATRS MS got banned. The FRT also confirmed that the magazines are indeed proprietary.

That means the Crypto was actually C-21 compliant, just not 2020 OIC compliant.

If it was non-C-21 compliant, the "legal authorities" field would say something like "CC84 Prohibited firearm (e)", as that was the C-21 provision for new prohibs.
