Just bought all my 922r parts for my fal build. Scored about 400 shells 12g 00buckshot for $150, bought muh hk robert rtg bipod, 2 chink mil ak slings for $14, and ordered the last of a good deal of 9mm, 600 new brass cased rounds for $103.

Seemed like good deals.

But it doesn't. Froglube has been proven to congeal and cause malfunctions in colder temperatures. Not to mention it's corrosion preventive properties are non existent. Any lube that requires a special "process" in order to apply or that explicitly states that you can not use any other lube in conjunction is fucking UNSAT. No Go. Try again, better luck next time.

Hey guys, with cheerful disregard to weight and practicality I've chosen to buy/build a battle rifle.

However, I've chosen the 6.5 creedmoor round and I would like the rifle to be side charging and piston driven.

I'm looking at SCAR right now but I'm a little wary that rebarreling would potentially accompany a drop in quality

Anyone have suggestions other than kys

>>30052549
yeah theres only a couple lights that are built to fit it too, and theyre expensive i guess but not too much higer than other taclights for pistols. theres one that's light/laster for 450 though

If you have a slim plastic forearm, you'll find it gets rather hot after ~40 rounds of rapid-fire. The wide handguard is great for keeping the heat away during sustained shooting.

>>30052384
Exactly which model did you get? The GI was designed for 147gr M80 ball; that's what it will probably work best with.

>>30052371
Thx bros

I was pretty set on replacing the polymer lower

>>30049391
I was looking at getting a battle rifle and the FN SCAR 17 seems like it will be my choice due to the fact that I got to shoot a light in 2009 and I very much enjoyed it but would like to have a heavier round

Personally I love the Aesthetics and the Comfort it gave me but I don't know if I should be looking at something else and it is very costly any information you guys can give me?

>>30053685
The scar17 is definitely the most comfortable battle rifle I've ever held. The price is ridiculous though. A close 2nd goes to the mas 49/56.
The hk91 clones come in a short distance behind, then the fal is lagging pretty far behind that. It just feels like an old gun design, heavier, bigger, and clunkier than it needs to be. Still cool though.
I can't place an m14 since I haven't held one in a couple years at this point. I'm guessing it'll be more like the MAS since it's another gun with a normal shaped wood stock.

>>30053685
i dont know what info you guys need

but essentially im looking for a modern rifle with semi auto instead of bolt action

as it stands i have a:
Remington 710
1942 Lee Enfield
1954 54 Carbine
a glock
and a shotgun i picked up from academy for like 150$ for home defense


i like all of my guns and theyre perfectly reliable (except the 54 carbine) but i want to grab a modern weapon more than anything and like i said previously, i got to shoot the FN SCAR in 2009 and really enjoyed it

>>30053725
ill give that MAS a look, much appreciated.

my wife wouldnt really stop me from getting a scar if we have the money to spare, but it is costly as hell (3k omg) so if i do wind up getting one i would rather it be after much deliberation and consideration and not due to a lack of knowledge about other BRs

Yeah, worth a look. I like mine quite a bit. It's one of the neater looking guns out there too IMO.
Mine's a 308 conversion so I can pick up ammo at any walmart, but I guess a lot of the conversions were done sloppily so buyer beware. I didn't get a lemon, but a lot of people apparently did.

I paid $3K for a Christensen CA10, shot one back to back with a scar and prefered the CA10. The CA is very light in the nose and made in the USA. Something to consider if you're going gucci. The CA10 is proven to cause scar crowd buttmad too. I love everything that FN makes and own some FN hardware but the CA10 is schweeeet.

Their website looks like it was made by a college student for hot dogs but their guns are pretty damn nice. I've seen some of their bolt guns and they are the bull's balls.

I've got a 6.5 creedmoor AR barrel I've been meaning to build up, and I've got a SCAR, so I understand what your talking about. While currently, no, there is no way to do this. However more than a couple companies are gearing up to offer just this sort if thing.

It won't be cheap (my guess is $1400)

de nada. A friend that has a SCAR and a CA10 says the FN is like a BMW M5, and the CA is a McLaren, for whatever that is worth.

I shot a $3K Sig, a SCAR and the CA10 on the same day. The Sig was heavy and looked old school to my eye, and the SCAR looked like the 90's called and wanted their rifle back after holding the Christensen. I wanted a modern looking space gun so that's what I got. It's the first AR pattern rifle I've seen that looks up to date.

My buddy with the Sig was mad that he bought it. lolz

>>30054380
agreed, it's subjective. Mine is the older version, no slant cut on the handguard end and no cock-lock holes. I liked the way they cut the vents better on the older model.

The Lancers are bitchin, but there were none around to fondle in my area. Same w the Proofs. I'm sure they are badass arms though. Something else for the guy above to check out.

>How big of a difference will I notice when shooting them?
Very little with the bullet, assuming they all have the same amount of powder behind them. I found that 150gr FMJ Perfecta drops about 6" below 147gr M80 ball at 100yds; definitely under-powered in comparison.

>>30054917
Trading problems. Sure with higher end models there are few problems with either system. I also dislike LWRCI for the shady way they run their business and that they use early adopters as unpaid beta testers without their knowledge.

Kek, fair statement! The whole point of this build was shits and giggles: My wife thinks a dozen guns is enough already (like she's never heard of a baker's dozen!), but she's also into that "extreme couponing" crap. So, when I floated the idea of seeing how cheaply I could build a very expensive rifle, by buying parts whenever they were deeply on sale over the course of months, she was actually OK with it. So, SWMBO think's it's actually a cool looking gun, and I don't have to sleep on the couch.

I figured using cheap parts would turn things into a bit of a crapshoot, but it's worked out well. Breaking in the BCG and barrel was a pain in the dick; lockup was super tight, and I had to keep lubing it and wearing it in. Finally cycles OK. Even when well oiled, it was so tight after I finished assembling it that it almost took 2 hands on the charging handle to open the bolt.

I kinda want a .308 gas-gun as a DMR, but I wouldn't want something that only might be reliable.
My only other idea is to build my SPR and train with it, then buy a KAC or LMT down the line.

folding stocks are lewd, and 18" is gross.
The photos DSA has online look like they all include the cut at least, and they all appear to be type 2's.

What is the rarity of an HK33? I can't seem to find one that isn't a PTR clone.

>>30068241
after assembling my 308 AR, i wish i had just bought a factory rifle. keep in mind, i have more than a few home build ar15s, so i have nothing against parts guns.

They might have shifted to type 2, used to be all type 1

>>30068673
Most important thing is a receiver set, always buy 308 AR receivers in a set. Find a handguards that look like KAC if you want. Sprinkle in a top end barrel, trigger, other parts to suit. And don't cheap out on optics.

PTR doesn't make an HK33 clone; only Century, Vector-Kelley, Zenith and Moore do.

Are you thinking of the HK32? If so, it never went beyond trial production. The PTR-32 imitates it in function, but it is not a true clone since it uses a regular 91-size receiver.

Like that? This won't work with my 20rd bulletboxes...

>>30068673
like anon said above, research is key. i jumped in picking out parts and found myself lacking options. of course that isnt to say you dont have options, there is a very decent sized aftermarket for 308 ARs. i guess if i were to sum it up, i had to make concessions based on what was available. so i ended up sinking a fair amount of money into a gun that i wasnt completely happy with.
its fun to go blasting with once in a while but i hardly ever shoot it anymore.
in my case, i would have been better served with a factory rifle.

I really love the design of the rifle, is there drawbacks to owning this rifle?
I'm not seeing any under-mounted rails, so I would have to learn how to install those.
I'm a gun novice and the only guns I've had real experience with are a lueger pistol clone, and a bolt action rifle.
My local store has this rifle for ~700 USD.

Nah, it's a SADF pattern 83 rig in my pic. They made them in 30rnd ar/ak patterns and in a 'universal' pattern that accommodates big ol' BR magazines.

>>30068771
If I do go the AR-10 route, I'll give that some thought. I still think I might hold off on until I've got plenty more money to burn and just stick with an SPR-thing for now until I feel I can shoot sufficiently well enough to justify the upgrade. Unless I find something for sale that suits my needs to a T, and is a good price.

I mean that if your living in a shitty part of town, and are concerned about theft, it might make sense to leave some at the parents place if they were near enough to get access to with a reasonable drive.

Otherwise get a decent safe, doesn't have to be a big monster, but something you can make hard to get out with a handcart.

Yeah, it's a chin weld for sure. Irrelevant though because it's a Weaver-spec base on a 1913-spec rail; the recoil shakes it loose after only a couple shots. Doesn't help that it only has one real screw clamping it on. The sight works just fine, but it can't be properly secured to the rail; I just put it on for dankness.

>>30074197
>how do i remove the plug to put the bayonet mount in
Push in the little detent with the tip of a chopstick, then pull the cap off the end. Place bayonet socket in triple frame, line up holes, thread in screw. Done.
