What is the "Alienware" of guns?
>>32061639
You mean something expensive but useless and shitty ?
I'd go with Kimber I guess
>>32061654
ooh i like this.
Those shitty zombie guns probably
>>32061639
Salient arms
>>32061639
ar-15
You can build one but there are still people who buy them.
>>32061639
DPMS
>>32061807
And people who will viciously defend buying vs building.
>>32061654
>useless and shitty ?
And this is where you went wrong.
Alienware is stupid expensive for the performance, but they do preform very well. Theres just cheaper options that do the same. You're paying a premium for aesthetics.
Literally the definition of H&k and some FN guns
Zen Tech is pretty "Alienware".
Check those prices holy shit
>>32061807
>go to LGS
>ask if they have any lowers
>they have quite a few
>ask the prices
>"anywhere from $100 to $250"
>people pay over $100 for a fucking stripped lower
>cheapest AR15 is $1300
>"yeah you can build one but you don't get a warranty if you do"
>>32061653
lmfao
>>32061639
The SCAR
anything described with zombie attached to it
>>32061639
Tanfoglio
>>32061639
FN competition ARs
Boutique glock manufacturers (its a fucking glock just build it yourself jesus)
Colt
>>32061639
Salient
>not eally different from stock glocks
>fancier appearance, "better" materials
>fuckall price markup
>>32061849
why is it called "stripped" anyway, it's not like there was ever anything inside it to strip out
>>32061654
no, more like something that's on par with everything else on the market, but needlessly expensive
the only unique thing to alienware rigs is the cases. on the inside, it's the same parts you could get off of Newegg and slot together yourself.
>>32061692
agreeing w/ this
>gaudy
>expensive
>still just an off-the-shelf AR or mossberg under all the neon paint and themed shaped ports
HK
>>32062001
>why is it called "stripped" anyway, it's not like there was ever anything inside it to strip out
maybe because you can buy a complete lower with all the components already installed
who knows
>>32061830
>alienware expensive
>HK and FN expensive
>they da same
Nah
>>32062031
but that should be an "assembled lower [receiver]", and the "stripped" lower should be the default and just called "lower [receiver]"
HK and FN are by far the most overpriced given what they do and what little they innovated.
>>32061639
H&K
basically any ar with more than two things on it
>>32061670
Sauce pls?
>>32061639
Overpriced compared to comparable product?
HK.

>not Sig
Unless you're talking about the vp9. That one's shit.
>>32064018
>BCM
>anything but gud
You're just mad because you're poor
Salient Arms.
>>32061830
>Theres just cheaper options
where?
>>32064844
>buying non mil spec parts
>more expensive then mil spec parts
wew, Beats are good headphones too.
>>32061639
literally smart gun systems
>>32063996
>>32062188
Alienware isn't just about the price. It's about putting below average performance into a shiny box with lots of LEDs and big dumb alium eyes. and then charging a premium.
>>32061654
>>32061639
Any of the "commemorative" 1911's, etc. out there
Kriss
>>32065421
to be fair these aren't really meant to be used. They are more display pieces than anything
I'd say the FN scar in 556 is the alienware of the gun world
>>32061849
>warranty
>>32061654
I own both a kimber and Alienware. They both function flawlessly. Fight me.
CZ
>>32061639
Anything by IWI if you're referring to overpriced shit that can be bought a lot cheaper.
The Tavor.
>>32061639
almost got a Alienware holster, decided to spend $40 more on a custom made/fit horse hide holster.
Glad I didn't.
>>32061653
Looks cool but costs way too much. I guess it fits.
>>32066338
Aliengear anon.
>>32066131
CZ are actually good guns though
A bit overhyped yes, but there is a reason why it's the most copied pistol.
4/10 made me reply
>>32061670
sauce pls
>>32063790
I own a Colt. Does that automatically make me a fag?
>>32061653
Is that a fixed stock?
Magnum Research
ANYTHING HK.
To be the Alienwareâ„¢ of something, it has to be overpriced, mediocre in terms of performance, and filled with gaudy flashy shit.
HK and FN are overpriced, yes, but they're incredibly reliable with no fancy shit.
>>32064867
last I checked Origin is cheaper. Or you could just build it yourself. Building computers is dead easy. Plug shit in, download drivers, and now your fine.
Colt 1911s
>>32063790
>optics
Just don't get a meme or a piece of shit for a scope. Know what the fuck you want your rifle to do and get an appropriate scope.
>flashlight
Easily the most useful thing you can put on a weapon. I like knowing what the fuck I am shooting at in the dark.
>foregrip
Not necessary but damn is it comfy.
Everything else is pretty much a meme outside of niche applications.
Think of FN as Dell
Now think of the P90 and Five-seveN as their Alienware
>expensive
>bought because MUH AESTHICS
>negligible performance overall
>can buy much better for less
>>32062001
>wtf bayonet
>>32061830
>Theres just cheaper options that do the same.
Let's be fair here, compared to some of the Boutique builders Alienwares are pretty reasonable priced.
>>32061653
Those fucks are the Falcon Northwest of AR builders.
Les Baer custom 1911s
>>32064937
I disagree. "Smart guns" try to bring new/new features on the table, not just design and manufacture.
Alienware is all about design and manufacture, but not really anything out of ordinary otherwise.
>>32066383
CZ has a good price per quality ratio.
Are there any other ones with the same or better ratio?
>>32062001
>Red/orange paint on muzzle device
>toy-ish colors
isn't it illegal to make a firearm look like a toy?
