M16-12Z
M16® - 12Z
Designed by Kit Carson in Vine Grove, Kentucky
For years, Kit Carson's M16® designs have been our most popular series. And our Z version has built the largest user base of all.
The M16-12Z uses our very successful InterFrame construction, tough, textured glass filled nylon scales over a 420J2 stainless steel liner InterFrame. We overbuild it for rigidity, using solid glass filled nylon back spacers. And we assemble the handle with superior offset Torx® fasteners. The handle is exceptionally rigid and fills the hand perfectly.
