Brigade Makasi MK15 First impression box opening

reliable gun in Vancouver. He also said there are more preorders on Makasi than Carmel so fingers cross that I would get mine in the first shipment. That makes sense since IWI is a bigger manufacturer.
what?! really? I hope them arrive in ON around the same time. This summer is gonna be fun!
 
Pretty sure Bartok is getting paid for pushing stuff.

He just did a post on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/canadaguns/s/zcW291eZub) about the m3 super 90 and claim to never heard about any issues related to this shotgun while commenting right here below people with failed trigger assembly on the TI forum.

I call him out and he never replied.
No, I am not a paid "shill" as many established users here on CGN who actually KNOW me will attest. I call 'em like I see 'em, and have encountered zero problems with my Turknelli M3.

I didn't make my Reddit post to generate sales of an already dead product. What would be the point? I simply did not understand why they hadn't sold when I am having such an excellent experience with mine. I do not see/read every post on CGN and was not aware of problems with those shotguns. Again, why would I post on Reddit if I aleready knew about the issues? You make no sense and your logic chain is at best, broken.

As for the Makasi, it will sink or swim on its own merits. The handguard fastener design is disappointing, whereas the Gas Plug Clip is largely irrelevant. Just as I've already said. They can address the Handguard issue by installing Heli-Coils, and likely will once the issue is brought to their attention. They seem to be a very responsive manufacturer despite the crap-talking Brigade is now receiving on here.

Where did you "call me out" there tough guy? And just because I couldn't be bothered to respond to your drivel that somehow makes you correct? Good luck moving through life thinking you're right when others are simply ignoring your baseless, bull-crap accusations. Just who the hell do you think you are? Judging by the demonstrated maturity of your posts, you're probably lying about your age to get on here from your Mom's basement! LOL....

I think people will be happy with either gun. This should be my last gun of 2026 so I want something I really like. Wanted to have both but life and bills are hard to deal with these days.

Yeah buddy youre completly unware of the comments in the own thread
Youre responding.

How is my comment baseless when you are the one encouraging people not to only buy one, but two (your own word) Because they are so great yet denied ever knowing about any issues when they are litteraly posted before and after your comments. Not another the post. The same thread. Youre even responding to the guy with a canted sight and admiting its the most comon issue for warranty. Yet denied on reddit to ever heard of such issue.

My comment is absolutly appropriate.

I dont believe for one second you didnt know about the reported issues. So im gonna call bs when I see it.

Decided I’m going to give this rifle a chance. Will stick an aftermarket trigger in it and give it a 1000 rounds. If it looks like it’s going to beat itself to death I’m going to sell and buy fish rifle

Mainly I’m just too lazy to go through hassle of changing my pre-order
 
Newsflash - not everybody reads 15 pages of banter before posting.

Go back to your basement little man. Or perhaps you will report me to the mods on CGN as well as Reddit? I'll have to tread lightly lest I somehow offend your delicate sensibilities on this site as well.... LOL.
Just the 2 or 3 comments below yours.
Also youre pretty quick to answer these comments. I guess its selective reading, and memories.

Honestly if youre not getting paid for this its even worst. You dont have to be emotionally attach to your possession.
 
Honestly what is nice is the modularity and simplicity of the Makasi. The hand guard and clip are small beans and easily corrected. The problem with the IWI Carmel is the weight 8.5 pounds naked, looks like sh*t, serialized chassis cannot swap uppers with different barrel lengths easily, proprietary everything, plastic fantastic. I am still buying both and will sell one of the platforms I determine is inferior.
 
I just switched my pre-order from MK15 to IWI based on this thread.

The weight difference is definitely something that stood out to me, the plan here is I'll just mount a much lighter faster optic on the IWI, ignore all the usual trigger and other upgrades I would have done to the Makasi.

I want implied build quality and reliability first and foremost in this platform. Since I am not going to buy both to "Find Out", I see enough jank in this thread to tell me I'd rather take the gamble on the IWI.

I have so much PTSD from BCL, Crusader and others that I think I'm also reflexing away from the boutique manufacturer in this case.
 
Those who are baleing, are you not concerned that a precedent has been set when they banned other IWI products (x95, Tavor 7)?
