Like most savage products, they are junky and clunky. Carry them, have yet to sell one.

I would personally look into an Aero Precision that has a bolt and carrier made of proper materials with better QC testing in that price range.

Think there's a $30 off with free shipping coupon for a couple days on that one.

I only cracked open one Savage but it lacked any HP or MP markings.

I would have to agree with your statement on Hughes repeal.
even if it does get repealed it is no guarantee that prices will drop.
if anything the conversion parts will go up in price and the cost of doing those conversion will increase also.

>>102673
I mean, if it did get repealed then the prices would drop because there'd no longer be an artificial scarcity. People could crank out DIASs and lightning links very cheaply even if the bigger manufacturers didn't want to sell for some reason. That's all moot though since it won't happen.

>>102671
I sold them too. I'm not expecting a Daniel defense level of quality. I want something light, and accurate enough. Ihave two other ars already. I know savages feel chintzy but I've seen how accurate they are. If someone offered me a savage model 10' for my rem 700 I'd take it in an instant

>>102673
>I would have to agree with your statement on Hughes repeal.

I don't, there are a few pro-gun democrats in the Senate. I see real reform on weapons laws as more possible than repealing Obama or any of the tax and labor stuff that Paul Ryan is pushing. Democrats will line up for filibusters on a lot of topics, but on guns they might not have enough people.

>>102674
Obviously.

  Something similar:
>This Magazin is Man made using 3pcs. 30 rounds Magazin and it is good for firing doesn't encounter any failed when it comes to firing... it can handle 90 bullets.... We can call it as MORO MADE Magazin...

So presumably that's a 60 round version.

>>102674
7.62x39. I've seen identical J shaped mags for x39 ARs from the vietnam era, I think newer x39 mags have less of a kink. I think the capacity is 30, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was 40 or 45.

*sigh*

Looks too long to be a actual moderator.
I have a repro Innovative Industries moderator, and it is shorter than what is in your pic.

Also, pictures of Colt's blueprints for the moderator are online. Saw them in a barfcom thread.

But yes, the moderator I have makes my 10.5 inch AR sound like a 20" barrel in full suto. Helps when I shoot at an indoor range.

Higher res

This looks to have an aluminum upper receiver, so it probably won't have the same wandering zero issues as the G36. Gotta love the German government though. How many times has HK dicked them over, now? And they don't look for rifles from anyone else.

Does the bottom of the magwell have the same angle as that on AR-15s, or is it somewhat more horizontal?

>>102655
I'd bet that this works the same as the SCAR, in that rifles with any barrel length get the same length of handguard, whereas the longer-barreled 416s get a somewhat longer (bulky as shit) handguard. Do different 416s have different lengths of pistons, for that matter?

Relatedly, here we have another modern rifle with ease of modification prioritized over getting the off hand far forward on the handguard. Honestly, how useful is it really to easily change barrel lengths in a military context? Will soldiers be swapping out barrels for every mission, based on what they think they're going to be doing? How much of a pain in the ass would that be for logistics?

>>102652
> People complained about the SCAR "boot" stock.

I like my SCAR boot stock. It's really great for shooting backwards with a mirror from the top of shoul... what the fuck...

Looks badass. Any word on the materials? When they say "less expensive" that usually means plastic... and that didn't go so well for the previous rifle.

>>102659
Good lord, those guys look like an FN commerical aimed at the Gulf States rather than a military.

>>102656
I like the forward charging handle location, the modular lower handguard, and the multiple built in sling swivels. Looks fairly well thought out, though knowing H&K it will be lolmoney.

Thanks, man. I'm always interested in people testing guns in various ways.

I love how Rob has been doing it. Watching the wear of various components from various companies is very interesting and it really shows what companies skimp out on.

What his AR test showed me was to invest in a quality full auto BCG and you're good to go.

Found a gun channel that does have nice things. Not many channels I see do shit like .22LR at 720 yards and shit.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs3sYk1tuP5Er95EniC-uMw

In one of their recent vids, they take a 375 Gibbs (improved Cheytac) out to 4300 yards. The flight time is absolutely mental.

  C-More M26 Underbarrel Shotguns and AOW

Am I the only guy who'd like this as a full-length shotgun with a pump?

>>102519
Needs more buttstock and mount to hang an ammo can of belted 5.56mm on the side.

Tattooed mutant biker in Stalhelm (note helmet-mounted sight, by the way) to carry it around for you optional.

Fuck a buttstock, mount it to a steadycam harness, give it a video sight and an eyepiece, then do it up with some motorcycle grips. Maybe have a clutch cable that when you squeeze it, the steadycam gear locks up to help keep it on target. (Heh, as if)

ATF Rules 40mm Practice “Chalk” Rounds Are Explosives, Destructive Devices...

Well, might as well go bigger! Why not get a DD if they are going to pull crap like this?

>“Ok so a update. The agent that showed up was an actual bomb tech. I surrendered the rounds under protest per the advice of a attorney. The bomb tech was a really cool guy. He agreed that it was pretty stupid and he hated to do it but he was being forced to help out with the case. He did also tell me that they had sent him out to take 40mm chalk rounds under the same case. I walked out to the truck with him and watched him place the rounds in the explosive magazine in his truck.

>>102310
Except for the M992(those are a whole mess of bullshit having nothing to do with being DDs) you can ignore that article, it isn't true. A single ATF agent got overzealous and took some chalks when they shouldn't have, but they are neither explosives nor DDs and this has been confirmed by multiple people in the know. Hopefully the incoming administration puts a choker on ATF so shit like this doesn't happen again, but ATF gunna ATF.

Maybe, but it devaluates the whole X-series brand name.
It's literally a polymer gun which they ADDED WEIGHT ONTO because the balance was utter trash. Might as well make an alu lower for it at that point and have that explain the markup.

As GVD said, there's always the lowest common denominator idiots. Also likely, is that they put it on there specifically so the DOD could target the contract to get the sidearm they wanted while still having the "test trial" pony show.

To be honest my only problem with the M9 was the location of the safety. I got tiny hands and my thumb couldn't reach easily. Made me slow during the "new" USMC pistol qual.

Other than that I found her to be accurate and fairly pleasant to shoot.

Would have bough a 92FS if not for that safety. How I ended up with the Hi Power.

>>102515
>Maybe, but it devaluates the whole X-series brand name.
absolutely. the proper X-series are completely different beasts than the regular P22x, fully machined from steel with match triggers, match sights and match barrels.
this one has holes in the slide and weight in the plastic.

This really deserves its own thread.

>>101831

okay, now that is kind of interesting. Actually, I could see that working real in conjunction with the PDW-style stocks or short pistol buffer tubes...

So after much research and thinking I believe I've found my solution.

Fist off, the gas is primarily escaping from between the BOTTOM of the charging handle and not to top. Most of these charging handles only attempt to block gasses from the top and from what I can tell only the PRI one even tries to vent from the bottom. So issue number one is perusing a product that was flawed in design from the get go.

I'm going to do some experimenting with my mill sometime in the next few days. Along with some high temp silicone on the top (to ensure all gasses are directed into the newly designed bottom) I'm going to try and mill a series of angled trenches onto the bottom of the charging handle's rear.

I'm using PRI's idea as a base. However I'm going to enlarge it in both depth and width and make it vent out both sides to hopefully work better. It should also hold up to abuse better than a series of holes.

>>101860
A freakish success!

Cuts the amount of gas I'm getting in my face by at least 60%, didn't even put silicone on it. Not bad for five minuets of labor.

I think I can improve on the design as well, give me a few weeks and I may have something worth mass producing.

>>101873
I bought one of these bad bitches for my 300blk gat; i haven't shot it extensively because the can is in jail, but i'll report back when i do.

One thing to consider, I hear OSS suppressors reduce a lot of back oressure and blowback.
