It is incredible that in this was in the 2017, this guy made an extremely informative video and got almost no views, chris bartocci makes a list of features and people are "OH MY GOD GREAT TECHNICAL REVIEW"... it is a shames. Great video, I would like to add if you have not figured it out that the movement of the pin that retains the extractor is to increase the leverage, basically torque=distance*force. It helps to get a better bite on the case.

Moving the extractor pin forward gives leverage advantage to the springs versus the cartridge rim. The dual springs also allow for longer springs to be used because the original centered spring can't interfere with the firing pin channel. The area around the pivot pin also seems strengthened to prevent the extractor from breaking there. Now this is the first time I've noticed, but the ejector pin seems to not "dig" into the web area as much as in the milspec, furtger strengthening it.

Awesome video. Great description of the bolt, etc. Being from Florida, I really love my KAC's. Built in Florida. Built to last. Built to be shot and keep shooting. Lowest felt recoil on any of my rifles by a mile. The 14.5 MOD 2 is very special to me. I ran it for an entire 3 gun season and trained with it for a whole year straight with no issues. Just upgraded it with some Arisaka goodies last month and I cannot wait to shoot it again this weekend. FYI, as I understand it, all MLOK MOD 2's came with MOE, all Keymod MOD 2s came with the LMT stock. If someone got an LMT on a MLOK rifle from the factory they are lucky!!!

the E3 ejector pin was moved forward to provide more leverage on the chambered round, is what I was told.

Nice rundown of the KAC SR-15 "generations". They're such wonderful rifles, and there is just something about that Mod1 (URX 3.1) rail. I almost regret getting a Mod2.... ALMOST! Either way, great job of describing all the differences It's hard to make someone who hasn't shot one just how special these SR-15's are. In closing, "Nutnfancy" is a freakin blowhard.

So is LMT Enhanced Bolt based off the KAC or the other way around?
@gunpornmedia2881 6 жыл бұрын
tengu190 So They are actually not related and not interchangeable in any way at all. All the improvement on the SR 15 bolt is just the bolt. LMT enhances the carrier and I’m not exactly sure what they do to their bolt. They may have dual spring extractors but I’m not sure I’ve never owned one.
@tengu190 6 жыл бұрын
Steel, chemical treat, dual extractor, different shaped lugs, I think one piece gas ring also. LMT lowers are also similar but makes sense since they made lowers for KAC.
@DBravo29er Жыл бұрын
LMT bolt is made from A100 Aermet steel. Crazy expensive and difficult to machine. But several hundred percent stronger than even the best C158. KAC doesn't kiss and tell, but high grade C158 would be an absolute minimum for their bolt material. But, TBH, I wouldn't rule out A100 in the KAC bolt. We will likely never know for certain.

@@DBravo29er Wouldn't be surprised if they are made by LMT. LMT does some machining work for KAC. My company makes the receiver set forgings for both companies.

Dude, your chugging the nights armament koolaide hard as if its the gospel. Theres other guns out there that are far superior to those man. Its like geeking out on a noveske AR, theres a lot more other ARs out there that are actually worth the money they are charging. Paying primo dollars for an AR thats main sales point is its history and military cult following doesn't justify the ridiculous price.

Simple math/experience will prove that the price in most cases is inline with other quality brands.

fmxmyway, that is the silliest and most baseless comment ever for your argument. KAC were and still are innovators in the market, their guns aren't flashy, they are factory guns built to be run hard for a long time with little to no maintenance or failures. If you are going to drop nonsense like this then at least backup your comment with evidence and examples. And don't come in here with some frankengun example.

$2,300 for a DI AR? For that price it better have a piston in it. Ill give you it to you for their KAC 600M flip up sights but other than that ill very happily pass them up for a BCM or Daniel Defense.
@texlee1640 6 жыл бұрын
A piston AR, you mean the fad of the late 2000's? Even LWRCi realized that market is dead and started making DI guns and they were top dog in that niche. Piston AR's are on average 3/4 to 1lb heavier than their DI competition and that weight is towards the muzzle which is the worst spot to add weight in the system. BCM and DD make great AR's, but they aren't in the same class with a KAC SR-15. If you wanna keep your budget to under $1500 then I'd buy either of those all day. Check out Ballistic Radios torture test of the SR-15, over 20K rounds with no cleaning or replacement of parts and zero failures, I have yet to see that with any other DI AR. The SR-15 is a top dog in the DI AR world and they are worth the street prices they sell at. And yes, they make the best iron sights as well.
