They did expand their manufacturing capacity dramatically. You need a golf cart just to travel within their warehouses. People don't understand that KAC is literally built on rapidly responding to unique runs of military contracts for specialized parts and weapons requested by mostly SOF units. They aren't set up to make parts for clone builders and insta-consumers.

Barrett and KAC are really America's best in modern small arms. Admittedly they are overhyped at times, but there is substance to their quality. I sort of didn't believe it myself until I actually looked at and bought an SR-15. The details down to the thickness of the chrome lining and the double pinned gas block are just usually skipped over but it really shows their dedication to hard use. Yes the e3 , or whatever is now, bolt is rock solid but it really is them putting actual function overall as the priority, that is noticeable.

I'm a British Army veteran. I used the 7.62 SLR at the start of my career as well as the 7.62 LMG (Bren gun) and Sterling submachine gun. I progressed onto the SA80 A1 as well as using HKs and Sig Sauer in Northern Ireland. The KAC KS-1 is a breath of fresh air if the British Army is introducing this rifle. I always said that the MoD missed a trick when it decided to introduce a new service rifle back in the 1980s and instead of going for a proven weapon system (even the AK) they decided to develop something brand new and thus introduced the SA80 with all its problems. I'd love to fire some rounds down the range with this new weapon.

@@orion8981 I was thinking the same thing. KAC is a combat rifle and it isn't made to run on the cheapest steel cased Russian BS Ammo you can buy. The main reason I buy quality guns is because the low end makers do just that. They bore out the gas port to handle everything so that they don't have to listen to some cheap bastard whine like a prison Be-Haatch. Meanwhile if you try to shoot decent ammo through one of their guns, your spent casing goes down range with the bullet. That's great if your surrounded and resorting to spray and pray.

The cost isn't an issue it's availability. They don't really make weapons for civilians. It's just overflow form contracts. Some guys have been waiting for repair kits and have had rifles on order for over 2 years. The limited availability hyper inflates the cost on the used market. Not unlike beanie babies back in the day...

The differences are small and it's true if you don't need those small differences it doesn't matter. Yes you pay it a big premium for small differences. I mean if your bolt needs to be replaced at 15k vs 30k is irrelevant for most people and/or units that simply replace the bolts earlier.

Looks like playing catch up in the technology department with their upgrades. Most of what he mentioned has already been developed by others. As for the ambidextrous controls, looks like everyone is copying the OG “LWRC”, since it’s the most proven design. What’s the old saying, “Imitation is the best form of flattery “. The exceptions being ADM/Griffin and Radians designs.
