Are Knight AR-15s any good?

they are very good
but knight's customer service is more oriented
towards supplying goods to .mil contracts.
a buddy has an SR25 and an SR15
the 15 is as nice of a "tactical" AR as you are gonna find.
Reed Knight's products are top notch but availability can be spotty
Back when the SR15 came out, my buddy got one of the last from the first run,
the line was then shut down to build SR25s for a big contract job.
The commonly found "Knights website" is not run by knights
its a venture by a dood in new york who bought the URL
with the intent to sell it to Reed.
the best place to see Knights goods on the web is at impactguns

They seem to be pretty overpriced. Just my opinion.

Sweet guns, but as Steve said, overpriced.
Of course there are some out there who will say Knights AR15s have to be experienced to be appreciated. Fair enough. I just don't have close to 1200 to find out.
I just can't imagine it could do anything more than a good Bushmaster priced at $800.
Good Shooting

Knight's makes quality stuff. They are also not as overpriced as some have suggested once you start considering what it would cost to add some of their standard features (Knight's RAS, match trigger, etc.) to your off-the-shelf Bushmaster.
Now if you don't need those features, you won't want to pay that kind of money for options you don't plan to use. The other downside is unless you want those EXACT features, you may be paying money twice (once for the Knight's rail system and then again for the rail system you REALLY want).

Thank goodness you had the good sense to save that picture.
That may have been my alltime favorite TFL thread.
On topic:
Most folks would agree the money is better spent on a pre-ban
or post ban with lots of goodies.

:confused: I missed that thread on TFL :(
Does the SR25 take the same mags as the M1A and AR10 after modification?

Knights is finally building their own web site.
www.knightarmco.com it's under construction, but it seems they are finally getting online.

For him to sign on here, and justify both his gun-handling techniques, and his vastly overpriced Knight's Armament post-ban M4gery. :)

**If** money were no object, would you still pick the AR10 over the SR25?
