| There was a recent drop of MP5 RAS but it sold through quickly. My impression was that there weren't too many available. Was this the full extent of the backorder, or are there more on the way? |

Funny how a few years ago they said once a year they would make the old KAC RAS/RIS products for limited release. They must have serious manufacturing issues. I own a MP5 RAS, and purchased it in 2020 (me think) right when the SP5 came out. It is my favorite MP5 handguard that I have tried, all because of how it can mount a red dot. KAC is shooting themselves in the feet. I don’t understand it. They can price to make a good profit even if they are low run items. I guess if the particular tooling they used for these handguards are either worn out or no longer exists, I can’t think of a reason they can’t make batches of them, unless they have to use every tool and personnel available to only make new stuff for contracts. |

In all fairness they have been pumping out lowers and guns to dealers pretty consistently for the better part of a year |
