Is there anything wrong with using .308 as plinking ammo?

>>31846614

It irritates me to no end when some ignorant fuckwit complains about their expensive SCAR or LWRC or whatever not coming with a plastic hard case like their Rock River or Bushmaster did. They don't understand how cheap and flimsy those things are. They don't understand how the custom designed cardboard case is actually much more expensive to produce and they don't understand how much better it protects the weapon through warehouse storage and the shipping process. And they never come to the realization that providing a decent case the likes of a Pelican or Storm would only make said gun that much more expensive for coming with something that not everyone even wants. And even after explaining all of this to them you are still most likely to hear them say "well I paid this much so it should come with something." Fuck I hate stupid people.

>>31849493
It's a .308 AK, can't imagine a way for an experienced AK maker to fuck that up.

So does anyone here own a .308 Garand and is it at all good?

Doesn't a battle rifle have to be select-fire? Or have I misunderstood the whole concept?

Anyhow, I have a question regarding the G3: Does one employ that "HK slap" on them? I've heard about it, seen in vidya but I have no idea if you do it on a G3.

BTW, why did the G3 in 5.56 lose out to the G36 in Germany? Seems odd, since the same kind of situation happened in Russia, and the AK-74 seems to work just fine.

>>31853074
Because the Berlin Wall fell.

>>31853107
What. I know that's part of why the G11 failed, but wouldn't it make more sense to use a proven, reliable system over what has now been revealed to be a very troublesome rifle.

>>31853131
The plan was to adopt the G.41 and the G.11. Reunification meant that the money wasn't in the budget.

>>31853149
But the G41 was already developed by the time they designed the G36. Was the G36 cheaper to produce as well?

>>31861398
Except the definition of a battle rifle is loose as fuck, is the SVT40 not a battle rifle? It technically has a detachable magazine, hell, the AVS-36 rifle was very similar while being select-fire.
What about the G41 and G43, do they not count?
Or even earlier, the ZH29 and the Mondragon, they featured detachable magazines and even had larger capacity ones.

>>31861534
The term was used to describe the post WW2 era rifles that had the full power cartridges of the WW2 rifles, with the full auto capability of a machine gun, and a detachable magazine to keep it fed.

But a garand is as much a part of /brg/. Yeah, people post them, no, they aren't really battle rifles. Stop wearing your heart on your sleeve, deal with that the term doesn't quite apply to whatever rifle your gay over, and get on with your life.

You could probably get the same thing cheaper if you put some work into it

Hi /BRG/. I posted a while back about getting some BR's, ended up getting qt. 4 PTR91 FR's. I need some help: My budget for optics/grips/stands/bipods is ~$1200. I need to get at least 2 dedicated optics that are picatinny based, and at least 2 bipods that are functional with the FR barrel.

I'm going with Magpul (no hate please) for their underbarrel vertical/angular grips. Magazines I'm buying a couple dozen of the surplus aluminum/steel mags that you can pick up for ~3 each. Ammo situation is set with a couple k .308 plinkers and some more special stuff.

I know I should be asking /optic/ or maybe make another thread but I trust your guys' judgement. For the optics I'm ok with something that doesn't necessarily cowitness the irons. Maybe a DMR scope and some medium price reflexes.

Help me /BRG/! You guys are great.

>>31861899
If you wanted a tacticool rifle you shoudlve built an AR-10 instead. Get a vortex viper and hk bipod, maybe a micro red dot from aimpoint also

>>31861899
Optics aren't based on an interface with the rifle unless the mount and it are one piece

What's your budget and purpose for the glass?

That's some dedication to your raifu. $1200 isn't going to buy much for four rifles.

Are there any battle rifles with a fixed mag which feeds with regular stripper clips, rather than the Garand with it's en-bloc clips?

>>31861899
Primary Arms optics everything. Even then your going to make sacrifices.

That's a meagre budget for four rifles

>>31862485
No battle rifles have a fixed mag.
It's part of what makes a battle rifle an actual battle rifle.

The Gew.41/43, MAS Mle.49, SAFN-49, and Ljungmann Ag42/Hakim have mags that were meant to be re-loaded with stripper clips, though they are detachable.

what variable zoom scopes should I look into that will give me the most bang for my buck? durability is also fairly important

If you don't mind mailing scopes to Wisconsin, vortex

Are ptr's and g3 parts interchangeable? I really like that collapsable stock.

Im in WA state and I have a PTR GI with an aftermarket rail and original green furniture.

Its at 899 right now. Does anyone want it? I shot it 40 times and its very clean. I figured out that I was frankly too poor to shoot 308 or real fucking nato.

Anyone interested?

Both can be had with ranging reticles, but laser rangefinders are cheap, easy, and work.

>>31863370
>>31863384
Well that kind of sucks but i guess the collapsable stock is money i could spend on other things instead. Are there any differences between the ptr91 and hk91?
Also do they really fuck up brass?

>>31863384
can I frot with you at nuggetfest

>>31845487

It's not really plinking, since that term implies the use of cheap ammo. That being said, if you have the cash to burn, then by all means throw as much .308 downrange as you like.

PTRs are pretty close to clones of HK91s but new PTRs will have the correct paddle mag release. The fit and finish is a bit nicer on HKs. They are rougher on brass but you can significantly lessen the damage with a port buffer.

Get a port buffer, takes care of most issues you'll come across. Fluted chamber mostly just makes the brass dirtier, need to clean it more.

How do you justify buying a $3000 rifle?

I've only shot a scar once and it was the scar-l

The rifle in my opinion is the most beautiful rifle, but I really cant see myself spending so much money on one

To the anons that own one, what are your thoughts?

>>31863705
Probably, the baby g3 mags are looking pretty fucking pricy.

Compared to the competition, it's reasonably priced.

I'm not OP but that's my rifle in the pic. I started with the 17S, it had the reputation for reliability and the light weight I wanted. Plus when I got mine it was $2650.

I took it through a carbine class and had a shitload of fun with it, no stoppages and able to keep up with the AR/AK's in the class just fine.

It's pretty salty to shoot at that volume though, so I figured I'd get the 16S to train with, found a used one for $2k on arfcom back when a used 16S was only $2k. It's gone through a couple classes/shooting outings now also and never skips a beat.

They're extremely light, easy to set up how I want, and some of my most accurate rifles. The 16S is the only 5.56 rifle I even shoot anymore, honestly. That said, I fucking hate the way they're built. They're assembled with these shit-metal screws that they red-loctited in. Makes it a bit of a bitch to work on them yourself sometimes.

>>31863766
Considering a $1k AR could compete with it then I wouldn't say that's reasonably priced.

>>31863788
Soldering iron makes quick work of the loctite

>>31863789
A $1000 AR isn't the SCARs competition.
If your in the market for one, your in for the other.

>>31864889
I didnt have much on my scar threads, but ive helped out someone who we needed to bust out the soldering iron.

Of course it was out of butane

Now that im thinking about it, maybe a set of replacement hardware for the SCAR might now be a bad idea.

>>31862084
Sorry for late replies. They aren't for tacticool need, purely practical. I can up my budget a tad, but I'd prefer to keep it on the discrete end of $2k.

>>31862199
$1200-2,000 for at least 2 glass optics, 1 reflex sight, 2 bipods and some magpul hand furniture. I think it's reasonable, I'm just at a loss as to what specific stuff to get.

>>31862451
Again, I can work the budget a bit. Not requiring 4 ACOGs, just one or two decent optics that I can swap around. >>31862510
I'll do some looking, thanks.

>>31863384

You guys are quality, /ARG/ was useless in my fun search. Thanks again for the advice, current and future

>>31862199
>purpose
Forgot to read. I'm making one of them a DMR for the set, so presumably an optic good for ~300m, not that I'll ever need that kind of range. I'm confidant in the platform I just need a functional glasspiece to zero in with.

>>31864999
Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6 - 320
PA 4-14 - 280
2x fixed mounts - $125
Aimpoint PRO - $425
bipods are what $80

If you want to spend more money on an optic, drop the PA 4-14, step up to an SWFA SS 3.5-15

Might be going hunting with in-laws for late season in December, just packing the freezer. Some back woods types (though grandpa was a marine)

Need a rifle for hunting that won't freak the fudds out. Thinking FNAR with BAR rear stock or an M14. Any other options out there that's /brg/ related?

M1 Garand would be a good battle rifle that's also suitable for hunting.
Make sure you get an adjustable gas-plug if you're gonna shoot modern .30-06 commercial ammo.

The M14 also works, doing most of the same things with a bit less weight and higher capacity.
You could also impress your fudds by taking out a 20rd GI mag at the range, I'm sure even them can appreciate the beauty of an old wood and steel fighting rifle (5 or 10rd mags are probably a bit more practical for the actual hunting part).

>>31874928
I love the M1 Rifle. Only a fool would dislike it. That said; BETTER than the M14? The M14 is higher capacity, can be reloaded with either clips or mag, has an improved gas system, is select fire (though kind of useless on full auto), and fires 7.62 Nato which is just as hot as M2 Ball .30-06 except the half inch shorter cartridge allows for a shorter action (which can improve reliability I hear), lessen the weight of the firearm, and due to the round being shorter it makes the ammo slightly lighter, and makes mags shorter/lighter than they would be if they were in .30-06. Speaking of weight, isn't the M14 a little lighter than the M1 Rifle when unloaded? I mean, probably not by much, and certainly not lighter when loaded with a full mag, but any weight savings is good.

To be fair however, I believe it's smoother/faster to reload with an en bloc clip than with mags or stripper clips. An M1 Rifle shooting side-by-side with an M14 in semi auto at, say, a 300m+ target, I don't think the M14 would outshoot the M1 Rifle by much due to swapping mags taking longer than loading with an en bloc clip.

M14E2 stock. Love mine, just waiting to snag a proper butt plate and compensator for it.

>>31875566
No, they never used be as bad.

Usually the SCAR fags would quickly ejaculate all over each other and then the convo would return to normal.

Now shit is barely civil let alone intelligent...

>>31875613
Yeah, your pretty new

>>31875566
And dont get me wrong. FN makes nice rifles.

There was so much shit about it though a seperate thread could have ended the spiral.

But no, gotta have my 'SCAR "Fuckin Nothin" You Got' thread invasion every time some posts BRG.

>>31875654
Whatever bud.

LMT is also acceptable

Sa/k/uya is usually our only trip, so we tolerate him because he's not as bad as the faggots in /arg/

>>31875714

He's a lot worse. He's just as annoying without any actually useful knowledge,

When Sakuya inevitably responds to ALL of these posts in one huge post, can I be included too?

Lets change the subject and talk about your battle rifle post lewd shots of it faggot

Eh, too lazy to take a pic. Just lemme know if I dun gut.

Black Rain Ordnance Spec-15 16", Cryptic Coatings' mystic black BCG, Bravo Company charging handle, Geissele buffer spring, LaRue MBT (trigger), Precision Reflex flip-up sights and an Aimpoint Comp M4. Also have an 8" can, but I hardly ever use it.

I didn't realize I spent so much on my gun until now. Feels good, man.

>>31868582
No sorry, I kinda need the money. Trade for an ACOG would be tempting but trades almost never work out.

>>31877003
No problem, I'm looking to sell a few things so figured id offer. You try posting it on WAguns?

>>31876164
BRO receiver is mid grade
Meme tier BCG, buffer spring is meme tier
Dillon Dust® trigger is decent
M4 is pretty tits

Though it sounds like a mousegun, does cryptic even make a .308 bcg?

Can the H&K SL7 be converted reasonably easy to take G3 mags or was it totally fucked up like the SL8?

I also recall hearing there were a scant few select-fire "police" models of the SL6 and SL7, did these use a G3 kind of trigger group or is that shit completely incompatible?

>>31880533
>reasonably easy
No; the retention geometry is all wrong. You'd have better luck with M14 mags. There are existing 20rd mags for the SL7; they bring a lot of money when they sell.

>>31880588
I see, I heard it was based on the G3/HK91, but I guess only in that the action works in the same way.

I was thinking since the SL8 was actually really close to the G36 (sans the effort they went through to make it really difficult and expensive to rebuild into a G36 clone), then maybe that applied to the old roller-delayed sporter too.

>There are existing 20rd mags for the SL7; they bring a lot of money when they sell.
I could see that. Anything old H&K or anything cool for them usually does.

The BCG looks pretty similar, just doesn't have the huge tube on top to reach the charging handle/contain the return spring. The receiver however is very different.
