Gonna dump some of my FALs.

One of my Imbel kit builds from that Enterprise Arms fuckup is a good candidate for a para stock. Does anyone know if I need to re-do headspacing and locking shoulder install going from standard bolt carrier to para carrier?

Soon this rifle will be even heavier with the addition of a trilux scope.

How much would an M14 cost me and where the hell would I buy one? I've decided I really need a battle raifu and they seem cheaper than an FAL, but I could be wrong. Help me pls /k/

>>31456907

Previous owner had bought them from Tapco ages ago and didn't know their value (to be fair, neither did I). Got an STG58 kit, lots of extras, and that case of mags for $1500. Was really awesome. I guess the guy didn't see himself building it and wanted the cash instead.

>>31456939
Pretty sure you can get a FAL for less than $1k as long as it isn't coming from Belgium. Meanwhile the M14 is at least twice as expensive because it had a wayyyy more limited production run. You can get one from Fulton Armory.

>>31456988
Alright, screw the M14. Where can I find one of these FALs?

Just a few. Check on Gunwatcher. Beware anything made by Century, they are hit or miss and made from parts kits. While parts kit FAL's arent a bad thing at all, the problem is that there are 2 completely different FAL's. The inch pattern manufactured in inches by brits, and the metric version manufactured by everyone else. They arent compatible, and Century are notorious for mixing and matching into FrankenFals. This is not only stupid but dangerous. Anything marked CAI, Century, R1A1, steer clear from.

DSA makes 2 different FAL's, both of which are all made in america new parts gun, made and assembled 100% by them. The first is the SA58, made with a forged receiver, and the Voyager model which is cast. Voyagers are obviously cheaper because casting is cheaper than forging, by alot. But IMO you will break the gun in a thousand ways before a receiver wears out.

If you like FAL's go on Arizona Response Systems website. He is the FAL messiah, or was anyways for the longest time. He knows alot, shitload of good knowledge in that site. Under his armory tab he has a list of brands he will and wont work on due to quality. Avoid anything on the wont side, because its probably shit.

IMO anything made by DSA, Coonan, or genuine imports should be good. Some parts kits from reputable builders are good too, like ARS, or some of the more well known guys on FALFiles, like Gunplumber.

If I were just starting, I would either find an original Coonan build or buy a Voyager and replace the receiver later by sending it to ARS if it bothers you.

Fellow Sturmbro.

What year is your mfg? Interested because I have a wood handguard, no recoil pad, and the g1 flash hider.

Mine is 59. Think they started using the Stoss in 62?

>>31458205
Yeah, I know. But no one is perfect. I was not suggesting either he buy a kit build off a Coonan unless it was done by a reputable dealer.

Coonan from like 2001-2006 built their own rifles off forged receivers they made. If you can find one of those they are good.

The quality and reputability issue plaguing them is a more modern issue than that, and didn't exist back then. Dunno what is going on with Coonan or DSA nowadays, I suspect blatant greed.

Either way, the old Coonan brand and modern FAL are better than a no-name kitbuild, and DSA stands by their product today even with quality control issues.

>>31458205

lol and there was a guy on here yesterday with a broken Coonan FAL claiming that his was perfect and that everyone else who called him out on buying a Century tier parts kit rifle was stupid

>>31458349
That was me. And I never once claimed it was broken. You insinuated that.

Fired over 100 rounds through it today, one jam caused by a mag follower slipping.

You shit up two threads yesterday with this crap. Whats your problem man?

I handled a Keltec RFB at my LGS today and I'm in love. Please talk me out of picking it up for $1500

>>31456142
I got a couple of questions:
I plan to buy a DSA FAL and want it to look like an STG 58. Will the austrian flashhider fit without work or do I need to rethread the barrel. Also are there options to order a DSA FAL with the austrian style stock and not the humpback?
Also i live in switzerland, i'm still waiting for a respond if they would send it to the local equivalent of an FFL
Real semi-auto converted STGs need a special permit here which allow the police to make sure you've got a safe to put the gun in (which they can do unannounced)

>>31458453
Yeah the stg58's flash hider should fit. There used to be a DSA stg-58, dunno anymore. They still have the receiver up on their website.

Can you get a FAL manufactured semi auto only without having nazis barge in? Some nations didn't have full retard on theirs.

>>31458453
The SA.58 Voyager comes with the straight-comb StG.58 plastic butt.

How is it less gay?

I have a question for you guys. Got an FAL recently and really wanted to put wood furniture on it. Guys at ironwood said they couldn't make a hand guard for bipod cut barrels because the area around the gas block is too thin/prone to breaking. How is a non cut barrel different than my cut barrel? How interchangeable are the two? If I just buy a non cut barrel, can I just swap them out? I don't have much experience with these rifles so I'm not familiar with all their details.

I just bought a PTR 91FR and was looking to set it up for shooting at ranges up to 400 yards. Any suggestions on bipods, scopes other accessories? Looking to spend roughly $1,500 all together. Also, any suggestions on decent .308 ammo? Doesn't have to be match grade or anything.

>>31461140
Yeah but the PTR guy went home and shitposted a fairy tale about how he was shooting better groups than you with steelcase garbage and that you're a faggot for buying a gun he can't afford

>>31461241
I was the one shooting 3k lol, it was M80. There's more than one SCAR owner around. 3 grand doesn't make it some mythical unicorn that no one owns

>>31461272

it doesn't, but even you have to admit that a good amount of SCAR owners in that thread are fakers who for some reason or another, think they know everything about how a real SCAR works because they read the technical specs on Call of Duty

Even the guy who claims to fire only high quailty ammo, sure some people do that but why can't he compare his grouping of GM to a similar ammo like Hornady, Fusion or Black Hills?

I guess being here for too long has made me wary of fakes

>>31461266
Seconding this question. Also, how much is too much to pay for a PTR with wood furniture?

>>31461266

The scope alone will put that budget over 1500. There is only so much a 4x battle rifle scope can do at distance

Yeah they're not as nice as a high end scope like a night force but they are extremely functional and durable for the price. I think the tranny has no experience with vortex scopes and is just talking out of his ass telling people not to buy one. The point isn't that they are inferior to high end optics (they are) it's that that fag is acting like he knows shit about something he has no idea about. Basically he's a bullshitter of the highest degree. Plus I heard he got molested as a child.

I don't have the original and it's my understanding the DSA top is a replacement, I just want to replace the PRS2 with something else cause it's heavy as fuck relative to any other stock I've ever used.

Critisism against the M&P 10?

>>31466444
Proprietary headspacing, carrier, and bolt
Uses DPMS and KAC pattern receivers.
Merely adequate barrel quality.

If you want a better prebuilt .308 AR, both Armalite and DPMS have models that allow for less headaches.

If you don't mind assembling your own, you can do much better for the same money.

The mp10 isn't awful, just that depending on what you want, your likely able to do better.

>>31466369

>>31466441

.308 ARs are pretty solid nowadays too, even the (relatively) inexpensive ones

The standard doesn't mean good.
But DPMS .308 guns are better than their .223 lineup
The magazines became standard because the adopted KAC standards for that. Magpul wanted a chance at that market. That, and Armalite hadnt adjusted to the post AWB world, but they have now.

>>31469025
Not gonna lie that checkering on the foregrip digs into your hand pretty hard but you get used to it fast. Unfortunately there are not many options for the rifle. Something I wish Ohio ordinance would fix in the future. I would love to see a new trigger group where you can switch out the pistol grip using ar parts, but I don't think that's coming anytime soon.

>>31469267
>id say normally but finding ar10 parts right now is pretty difficult

Question for you cunts.

I live in Connecticut where we have an existing AWB. I own an M1A. I'm moving to Utah in February, and I want to sell the M1A and buy a PTR91 (banned in CT or I would just do this now) but don't want to risk giving up my only battle rifle in my collection. Any suggestions or thoughts on the risk factor of me playing this out?

TLDR I'm scared hillary will get in office and ban AW before I can get to Utah to buy a PTR91 after selling my M1A. Pic related.
