I'm pretty sure KAC does a MIL/LE discount directly from them. I would contact KAC first.

Big Tex Outdoors with 15% off coupon was actually cheaper that LEO/MIL discount

Contact Interstate Guns, Hammond, LA
I think they have one on the shelf. That is going to be an excellent set up, KAC upper on a MARS lower. Best of both worlds. |

Just curious, why wouldn’t you want a KAC IWS complete lower?

Quote HistoryQuoted: Just curious, why wouldn’t you want a KAC IWS complete lower? my reasoning is the full ambi bolt hold open. I have an MWS with mars-h and absolutely love it. I may just buy a complete kac rifle but I believe I can build a better lower for cheaper. |

FYI, If you build a lower with a KAC Upper, I recommend using the PWS MK1 Mod 2 Stripped Lower, exact same as the KAC IWS Lower in regards to its ambidextrous functions, but forged and a lot sexier looking and a whole lot cheaper then KAC IWS Lower. Meshes great with a KAC Upper, check it out and give it a look, I promise this is what you seek. LMT MARS-L is also another great option as you have stated, others having recommended, and you can get it stripped, as well as it being fully ambidextrous as you know. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Just curious, why wouldn’t you want a KAC IWS complete lower? KAC lowers are very disappointing for the money. Saying that as someone that has owned them. Sold them all off when I wisened up. For the same money if not slightly less, you can get a MARS-L which is nicer in terms of ambi design and stock that comes on it. KAC has cheapened out by swapping the $200 LMT SOPMOD with a $30 MagPul while keeping the price the same. For even less money the PWS Mod 2 is much nicer than a KAC. Still forged. Lighter than the KAC. Nicer flared magwell. Has integrated trigger guard. Cheaper too if I didn't mention that already. Then you also have ADM and Radian that make a nicer ambi lower than the KAC. So in summary, the KAC lower is overpriced compared to other options and is also lacking in features compared to other options. |

Exactly what I said, as you know how it goes, your statement is absolutely worthless without pictures.  Pictures I know you got, LOLOLOLOLOL. Show em off, and let em know whats up!

tampatac0 has a CQB MLOK 11.5 on a MARS-L lower.
You're on the right track, OP. It will be a nice gun when you've got it together. |

Quoted: in the near future I will be looking for a kac mod 2 mlok with 14.5 barrel. im wanting to pair this to a LMT mars-L lower so I only need the upper. anyone know of any dealers selling just the complete upper and if possible has a LE discount? I’ve got a new 31949 if you can’t source one. |

I was looking at getting a KAC lower for an 11.5 or 14.5 build and now you all got me reconsidering getting a LMT lower. Decisions...decisions...
Btw, is that kellyenterprise price for a 14.5 a good deal? |

I would doubt any are currently in stock ready to ship though, but you could always call and see. |

The KAC lowers are a total crapshoot.
Useless ambi functions aside... 2/3 IWS lowers wont drop free a gen 3 pmag. Another one I got had huge trigger ears coming out the bottom. Rubbed me raw. Another one I got had big anodizing spots on the inside that were straight white (RMAed this). In terms of parts value it was actually a preety good deal when they came with LMT stock. $330 KAC Trigger + $200 LMT stock + $50 LMT Tube + $70 kac buffer + $80 KAC endplate +$45 KAC Saftey (incomplete kit) = $775 before the stripped IWS lower and small parts And I've seen the IWS lowers for $850... You could break it into "new" parts and sell it for more than that. |
