Yes of course it's a very capable platform. I didn't say it wasn't, however my point was it isn't anything special. A lot of advancement has taken place in the AR platform in the last 20 years in the way of accurate barrels and quality hardware, and the MK12 doesn't do anything unique except look cool.Could care less about clones. I wanted an SPR that shoots as well as my bolt guns and didn’t want to make it anymore complicated than that. The PRI does that in spades.
