MK7 thoughts?

Post by tubazach07 »

Houser re released its old LM7 now the MK7. I wanted to know what anyone’s thoughts were on it. I am trying to purchase a stainless steel version of my custom Laskey 30H copy when I go on deployment next year. I like the idea of being able to replace a shank if I drop it on non skid then if I drop a silver plated mouthpiece. Thank you!

I have an older 2-piece Mk7. It’s good, but not in my current rotation, so I’m open to sales or trades. If you’re interested in it, let me know.

To answer an earlier version of this, it does not feel to me like my Schilke HB II did, this is way more open feeling.
