Info on Kel-Tec SU-16fx

[tstormt]

So I was browsing the Nov/Dec issue of Calibre magazine and noticed the new SU-16fx in it. Does anybody have any info on availibilty/reviews etc.
Thanks in advance

What is the difference between the F and FX?

Canadian market exclusive "AR style" rifle, with EoTech clone sight, in non-restricted.

That's interesting.

So, it comes with a cheap sight and that's it? Makes no sense.

Maybe it comes with the ar stock installed?

My Calibre issue didn't arrive yet.

Looks like a sweet little rig, especially since one will be able to drag it around the bush.

I wonder if that eotech clone is any good. The airsoft ones are absolute junk. I see a flashhider too, might be worth a look so long as MSRP is kept under control.

Gas block sight is also new vs the old su-16F

Is the receiver strengthened? Because having one crack on me made me stay away from Kel-Tec for the time being.

^^^ thats good to know. I was looking at a su16f today!

I don't remember reading about confirmation that they fixed it but I do remember someone had contacted them when their SU made itself a nice inspection window in the back of the receiver and either Vault or Kel Tec told them they were working on fixing the issue. I haven't heard of very many issues lately so I suspect Kel Tec has ironed out the bugs. If the price on these is reasonable I'll probably buy one. Its definitely a cheap toy compared to an AR or NR black rifles but somehow I still like them.

I thought you'd know Vault buy now Nova!
New SU-16 = $250+ price increase even if they didn't fix the receiver.
My guess it they will be $1050. They might go as low as the type97 but it does't have an optic so add abit.
Also my guess is limited edition to raise the price even more.
I'm not biased, not at all!

$800 old rifle + pistol grip $130 + sight/new mag. $999.00 on sale for $949.00

 

[supernova]

Lol you're right airwolf, this is vault we're talking about. Factor in a 15% tactical surcharge and voila, a $400 gun for $1400!
