Karina Y107 Custom 17 Full Review

Conclusion

Bill of Materials:

107 switches (Full size), stabilizers, PCB, and custom 17-piece screw set.

  • Weight: 42 ounces is heavy for carry. This is a competition or nightstand gun only.
  • Price: High entry cost (typically $1,800 - $2,400 MSRP).
  • Holster Compatibility: You will need a custom kydex holster. Nothing off the shelf fits the 17-inch full profile.

How Does It Compare to Competitors?

The "17" is the magic number. By extending the platform to 17 inches, Karina has achieved a perfect 1:7.7 twist rate (if referring to a barrel) or a 17-slot M-LOK interface (if referring to a handguard).
