One of the most highly sought after firearms in the industry is currently going through extensive testing! The .308 JAKL by Palmetto State Armory is on the horizon, and we will keep you updated every step of the way.
I’ve owner 4 Scars, 2 pre-nrch and 2 post-nrch 17/16s. Its a fine rifle, but gimicky in the fact I cannot suppress them without fucking the BCG and cracking the rear receiver
@@TheMikeshannon ah yes lets go take a $3000-$4000 rifle and put another couple hundred dollars in it just so it works while using another couple hundred dollars or thousand dollars plus item. Idk sounds stupid and seems like its an outdated and/or inferior system to me. Personally why spend all that cash on one rifle when i could use that to buy multiple other premium rifles, upgrades or tons of ammo.
I don’t think SCAR customers are shopping PSA. PSA is good but not excellent. PSA is inexpensive which I like. Much better quality than super cheap BCA products.
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 never heard much for negativity on those releases. Pretty common for any new product from any gun manufacturer to have a few issues at launch.
@@skoolynugenator1802 Then you’re either not paying attention or being willfully ignorant. The charging sled on the Jakl breaks, and had to get redesigned. The AKV needed the MAC bracket. The Daggers had trigger pins walk out on day one, and on all the above guns mentioned, machining issues still plague them.
@csmith1 actually no. What I meant was.... If more companies were as innovative and avant garde as PSA.... If more companies sought to provide specifically what their client base wants like PSA does. If more companies focused on making products that are affordable and of sound quality to supply the average working american like PSA does..... If more companies were competitive and driven by supply and demand like PSA is. The world would be a better place.
@@cs51207 Watch GarandThumb's video on a PSA AR15, held up extremely well. Much more in depth video than just mag dumps too, they brought in an expert to look at the wear patterns and break it down. Held up extremely well for a lower priced tier firearm, on par with ones double the price.
This is the innovation we need in the industry. This is a breath of fresh air from the long standing, over priced 'buffer tube era' platforms. Congrats PSA.
“Buffer tube era platforms” 😂 well said man, there are a few other bufferless competitors (foxtrot & BRN180) but Palmetto is pumping out way more than just the JAKL 🔥
@@MatthewC176 Bone headed move of them I think. When the SFAR caught my interest before release, not once did I think "SCAR". I thought, wow that's a lightweight innovative 308 Ruger has developed. I hope FN loses.
If it's functional out of the box without hundreds of dollars worth of upgrades, then it will unironically be better then the SCAR for probably less then half the price. Also I'm willing to bet that suppressing it won't void the warranty. Don't get me wrong. The SCAR is a cool rifle, but the guys at FN must be smoking crack if they think it's worth 4 grand.
At the beginning of the year I said, “I want one of those PSA Jakls.” After Shot Show I said, “I need a 5.56 Jakl, the 7.62 Jakl, the Enhanced Sabre AR, the Sabre Dagger (maybe two), and the bolt action series. You guys are doing a great job! Now can you maybe build some belt fed 7.62s and a .50 bolt action? 🙏🏻
I love that all the jakl rifles have that acr stock. It's such a perfect stock and I'm glad it's gotten new life in your products. Excellent work, boys.
Super excited for their DMR variant! It's like a SCAR, except this is what everyone actually wants. That, and suppressing it doesn't void the warranty. Great job as always, PSA, it'll go great with my Sabre 110.
We all appreciate you giving updates and having great communication. I really can't wait but as others have said make sure you're making the best product you can; take your time!
Im convinced that if they get this really dialed in with improvements and solid qc, that this could be their flagship line. Its the affordable scar/bren 2 thats available as well. Brens are fairly priced but hard to find in us.
Any chance we might one day see an OLCAN bullpup chassis for the 308 calibers? Would be phenomenal to see a 308 caliber in a short configuration. Bullpups are fantastic for battle rifles
@JulianLares Then I hope it's trigger is as impressive and comes in significantly lighter. Just because it's less expensive doesn't make it just as good, unless it turns out to be. Plus, I can get a Tavor now and not have to wait at least 2 years.
Whos old enough on here to remember when PSA was garbage? But look at them now, the make decent guns at good prices, and they listen to the consumer and give them what they want. About time someone stepped up, thanks PSA.
Im going to try my luck Friday and attempt to get a Sabre Dagger before its out of stock for 6 months 😂 Keep up the good work guys! - fellow South Carolinian
I heard a rumor of you guys making a slightly not AR compatible one to go along with a colab lower from IRG for the canadian market. Please do it! I can tell you for certain that if you bring a semi auto 308 up here that isn't a defective POS and costs less than $3000 it'll sell like hot cakes. We're not allowed to shoot humans for any reason and our animals are BIG so 5.56 guns are just plinkers to us. With Chinese M14 clones getting banned the only 308 options we have are Tavor 7s that get scalped for $4k and B&Ts retailing for $6200. The domestically made options are all POS' (some times dangerously so) and they price match the $4000 Tavors! You'd own the game up here for semi 308s.
I hope you’re addressing all the issues discovered in the recent trex arms 5000rd review. I was all set to jump on the hall bandwagon until I saw that there are some serious QC issues that need to be dealt with first. What assurance do you have that those issues will be resolved?
If you guys are doing P&W will you consider lighter mount adapter compatibility? Love my Jakl but the dead air keymo adds considerable weight to an already front heavy gun. (I’m fine with keymo on my Sabre)
All those inexpensive ar15s and uppers really made some good money to make even better firearms that’s what you call innovation with raised quality great sh!t PSA 💯💪🏽🇺🇸
Awesome rifle. I wish only that they had higher quality barrels (I'm a stickler for CHFCL barrels), but I understand you guys have to save money somewhere to sell them at the price that you do.
Have owned both versions of the SCAR 17, and it was cool. But breaking when running a suppressor, really turned me off of them. Was hoping to get a Bren 2 7.62 or the Jakl. Hope it fairs good. One of the few items im actually excited to get my hands on
Probably should have spent some time on addressing the glaring fundamental design flaws with the original JAKL that have been so well documented all over RU-vid, before upscaling it to .308
I will take mine in Creedmoor please as the bones are old and less rattle is a good thing... There is always a brake or can, but if it comes with a CHF barrel, I am in...
Everyone that talk crap about Palmetto Armory is now walking around with their tails down in between their legs, right War Poet yes I said it, I still remember my disappointment of him bashing this awesome company Palmetto is and will be one of the best in the industry.
