Here are a few pictures from the SHOT Show KAC/ Magpul carbine. If there are 100 or more weapons ordered, these will go into production. If not, its simply a concept carbine.

Hey Stick very nice rifle. Where can I get one? Thanks

Now that's a good looking rifle. Kudos to both companies for offering well thought out equipment. That would be worth ordering.

I've got an email out to KAC, I want to make sure I have prices and availability correct before I make any misleading comments.

I called them this morning and talked to a guy named Jim and he informed me to contact an authorized dealer. I emailed Grant at G&R Tactical and he said he isnt ordering any cause KAC wants money down upfront. I cant get ahold of anyone at this point or get them to return my phone calls. Do you know a KAC dealer I can call? Or I will just wait until you get back to this post. Thanks

I'm going to wait until I get clarification from them. I am unsure if a Magpul dealer with a FFL can get them, or it was to be only an KAC dealer. I had also heard that any FFL can make an order on these.

A few different rumors, and I don't know whats legit at this point.

Please let it be this!

Top knotch photos once again. Rifle looks like it has some great features. Now is it my monitor or does the upper have a slight purple/blue hint to it as compared to the lower?

The lighting is mixed and horrid, plus I didn't set a manual whitebalance for that shot. I would use these asrough images, not anything to really get a good feel for the weapon or check out details.

I saw the rifle in person at Shot. On that specific one, the colors weren't actually that far off, but the texture was. The upper seemed to have a rougher bead blast type finish.

what are the benefits of the dimpled barrel? I'm not sure I'm a fan of that unless it results in much faster barrel cooling. Because it has the KAC break and the dimpled barrel I'm going to guess this will be a $2599-$2799 setup.

Grant from G & R Tactical just emailed me the price. Wait for it....

$3200 shipped. OUCH! I can by a regular SR-15 E3 IWS for $2000 and ad the triple tap brake and the Magpul drab that I want for way less. The barrel and triple tap brake is what really attracts me to this rifle not the Magpul drab. Buy once cry once right.

Not uncommon for something slapped together as a SHOT concept.

The barrel is special, and that dimpled design has a patent on it. Faster cooling, and lighter barrel are key points.
