This makes me happy for multiple reasons; 1) it will piss off the guys who price gouge at gun shows 2) they aren't making it unaffordable 3) it makes the part of my brain that wants to climb onto the roof with it very happy.
The rifle at 1200 dollars sounds a little pricy to me. Smith and Wesson sport AR-15 at 799.00 or a Ruger AR about the same price as the S&W might be a better choice.
James can say and do some odd things at times ,but his hearts into this one . What a platform this is will it be offered in 7.62 X 51 ? Nice share James 👍🏻. I like yes sir
The temperature difference between the coldest and hottest seasons in Korea can reach up to 70°C. This is real. This rifle is designed to function in the harsh environments of Korea, whether it's the coldest or the hottest place. It may not be inherently better than the AR-15, but I can guarantee its reliability is on par with the AK. How do I know? Because I've used it.
I cross trained with AK 47's, 74's and AR-15's while in the US Army; and, was always dumbfounded as to why no one had created a hybrid AR and AK. Then I discovered the Daewoo. I think the Korean engineering was far too underrated. Brilliant design and build. I hope I can pick one up some day. Wonder if they are considering a 7.62 version as well.
I've got a old k2 rifle that doesn't even have rifling in the barrel anymore I'm pretty excited about these, probably get a barrel, a new k2, and another dp51 while I'm at it.
@@bangochupchup Basically what hes saying is that hes an old fudd who bought his shitty 1:12 twist preban daewoo k2 for $400 back in prehistoric times where him and bubba tried to shoot targets at 100 yards with it but with their horrible aiming skills didnt even hit paper. So they chalked the gun up to be junk and since he cant do math or understand inflation he thinks $1200 is too much for it.
I bought my first Daewoo in 1986 for $300, a tack driver out of the box. NEVER a jam, double feed ...INCREDIBLE, absolutely outstanding rifle. Sold it on an impulse in 1995 and have regretted it since. I will ABSOLUTELY pick one up.
My dad said he always wanted one of these after spending time in Korea but didn’t have the money back then, and at this price point this Christmas is gonna be a good one for him.
OH man, $1,200ish? That's fantastic. There has been a Daewoo sitting at my local gunshop for 10 years collecting dust currently at $2,199.99 after being marked down after several years of $4,199.99. The only time I've heard of a $1,200ish price an gone "Yes please" I've wanted a Daewoo ever since I turned 18 30 years ago haha.
@@thejohnbeck yep, the existing ones will drop in price like a rock and the reverse would happen where the thumbhole ones may be worth a bit more than the ones that look like the service rifles.
@@steveh5307 No something will be different from the older versions - aluminium vs polymer for example. The older versions will cost more- how much more will be the question.
Served in Korea when they were originally fielded, bought one when I returned stateside and they were released commercially. Absolutely one of my favorite rifles, brilliant design. I'll be adding another as soon as they become available!
I bought mine right before the Clinton ban. Used it as a patrol rifle for years. It was always center of attention in training classes. Took it on winter wolf hunts in subzero temps. Even with snow packed around the ejection port, it chattered away flawlessly on every trigger pull. It's semi-retired now, but on home sentry duty.
Have two Daewoo AR's. The BEST AR ever. They took from the AR15, FN, the AK, with the front sight of the G3, and uses AR15 mags. The result - best AR ever. Glad to hear thst Daewoo is back!
I also once owned a Daewoo K2 rifle. I loved it. It was a perfect blending of AR and AK systems. I sold mine for a lot more than I paid for it. Main reason I sold it was I was afraid if any internals were broken or damaged, replacement parts would be impossible to get. The return of the Daewoo is great news.
As a Korean who is watching this video, it’s good to see that SNT Motive is back with the civilian gun market and I’m so happy that they are returned. Also, I wish they introduced the XK8 bullpup rifle in the civilian market. :) :D

I was looking at pictures of K1 and K2's earlier this week and I found myself hoping someone would bring something similar to market again. My wish has been granted!
@@jmpetersrn Actually he said 1 in 7.3" which is correct to the military rifles - they are designed in metric of course so the rifling is actually 1:185mm that converts to approx 1:7.3 inches.
@c.garison3770 - You're absolutely right! I completely regret selling my Gen 1 Galil ACE. This K2S is finally going to scratch that itch. Based on the specs it's actually going to be a little lighter than the ACE. Likely going to be less overgassed than the ACE too. It's just a shame it won't come with tritium irons though.
When I was in the USMC I trained in Korea with the ROK Marines I fell in love with this rifle. When I got out I found out that I couldn't afford one and was heartbroken.
Same. There in ‘87-‘88 Team Spirit. Even though it was as cold as I’ve ever been when in the field I throughly enjoyed the people and their hospitality towards young, somewhat uncouth jarheads, and the countryside in its winter season.
Daewoos are back??? Cool! Its like the best combinations of M-16, Ak-47, and IMI Galli rifle plus some HK thrown in there... Its a great rifle what can I say.
I-I-... I almost don't know what to say! Whenever the Lionheart pistols were discussed, one way or another the desire for the K2 rifle to be brought back to the civilian market popped up. For a long time, there were those that entertained this idea. Then here is SNT Motiv themselves, at the expo, showcasing this. This is one of the good things of 2025.
Definitely eyeing the K2C1. I have an LH9N (the railed model) and an LH9C. Love them, but am disappointed that Lionheart discontinued them, and went full bougie with their Regulus and whatever they're selling now.
@ idk man I got an old daewoo surplus for 300 in modern prices. The new daewoo updates just don't compare to the typical $500-$600 mainstream wonder 9 brands
Still have an AR100 from waaay back, excellent rifle, upgraded the grip and handguard to the new ROK stuff, thing is awesome, glad to be able to get spare parts again!!
The Korean Army adopted this as a service rifle in 1985 and has been using it as its primary infantry weapon since then. It’s somewhere between an AR-15 and an AK-47. I’m very excited to be able to have it soon.
I bought a K2/Max2 when they first hit the shelves. I sold an AR-180 to a friend to fund the purchase. This was before the ban, so my had the folding stock. The trigger was a bit gritty, but on the light side. The fit and finish was great. Especially compared to the Sterling made AR-180. Later, I sold the Daewoo to get a Steyr AUG. This whole chain of events started my trail of regretful decisions to sell firearms I had collected.
We've all been through that. I've sold so many surplus and rare pieces that I wish now I'd have kept, but ya see something that strikes your fancy and then it's "sell one thing to a new thing." Of course, I have tripled in profit on some and in one deal got 5 times what I paid for a Sterling 9mm when I sold it 2 years ago, and now they are on sale again for like $500-600.
I believe the real rooftop Korean had the K-1 A1., The one with the wire stock in short barrel. The market that he was on the roof of is now a multi story mall. I was there during the riots. I remember they used the shopping cart to block all the entrances.
I would absolutely buy one of these. Always wanted one. It’s kind of like the FNFAL in a 5.56 version that’s actually affordable. This is probably some of the best Firearms news this year so far. Bring them on!
I have one of the dr200s with ace sidefolder and a cheap reddot and it is my favorite gun, would gladly buy a new factory sidefolder with a 1/7.5 twist barrel for 1200, worth the money if you've never shot one it's more fun than an ar
This is super exciting news I'm so happy for the Korean people I'm extremely excited for more manufacturing jobs here in my hometown of Las Vegas and more exciting options from the international world of small arms. One thing that wasn't mentioned though is the full lineup of firearms that should be coming from them according to other sources they should be offering also their k-13 rifle which is a Korean 416 rival and seems to be adopted by a lot of their special forces units now
I own an original from the 90's. Bought it new, it is the best 5.56 platform ever. Takes ar 15 mags it is the most accurate semi auto I own and reliable! Buy one when you can.

One thing that wasn't mentioned though is the full lineup of firearms that should be coming from them according to other sources they should be offering also their k-13 rifle which is a Korean 416 rival and seems to be adopted by a lot of their special forces units now
I own an original from the 90's. Bought it new, it is the best 5.56 platform ever. Takes ar 15 mags it is the most accurate semi auto I own and reliable! Buy one when you can.
Wow.
The best Shot Show announcement imo.
I need this for my roof missions!!
Lets gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! Best "combo" concept AR/AK EVER MADE!
I can't wait...I have a 1st gen K1 folder... always wanted rail handguard option and sight rail.
Now I'll just wait for the K2 C1.
I always kicked myself for not buying the K2 collapsible stock model .
I've always wanted one of these rifles!
my FAVORITE shot show announcement!
It's neither good nor bad, but for a 5.56mm, it's a solid rifle with no major issues, similar to the AK.
Best announcement out of shot show this year so far.
I still have a DR200 (with the butchered stock), great rifle and will be first in line to get a new with with the proper stock on it!
Would love to see if the K2 stocks are being sold. If so, I'll have to get an adapter for my dr200
probaly the most excited ive seen james glad to see it ill get one of these when the time comes 👌👌 and happen to have the same backpack too lol
I could feel James's excitement through the screen, and the rep was one of the most knowledgeable I've ever seen. I'm gonna start saving my pennies and watching out for the review.
