what's the most over rated gun of all time and the most under rated gun of all time and why ?
>>
>over
AR15.
Not saying it's bad. Not even saying it isn't good. It's just not so good everyone everywhere should use it forever no matter what.
>under
FNC.
I think it's super neat. Everyone talks about the Stgw 90 when "AR AK hybrids" come up but the FNC is really good too. Sure the SIG is better but come on it costs twice as much to make and is a lot heavier.

Also adding on. The Five-seven isn't underrated. It's overpriced by about $500. The round is also expensive and redundant. It's a glorified .22 for 8 times the price with no real world use besides being a gun that cartel members use.

>>
>>33142005

I wanted to say 1911 but it really set up the 20th century pistol design approach, short recoil and all that, and being grandfather to all the handguns today is not small potatoes. I do feel like it is overrated vis-a-vis the Hipower because 9mm high capacity/double stack is what began to predominate. If not for us burgers .45 would be dead.

I don't think AKs are overrated when you become probably the most ubiquitous and widely produced military firearm in modern history.

A rifle is better.

>Deagle is still shit.

A revolver would be lighter, cheaper, potentially more compact, and more reliable, without any risk of casings being flung into your face.

>Deagle is still shit

I shot a Desert Eagle at a shooting range once. It was a jam-o-matic with about 1-2 malfunctions per mag, and I found that shooting the .44 magnum revolver before it was more accurate and needless to say, more reliable

>Deagle a shit!

If I HAD to hunt bears, and for some reason I COULD NOT carry a rifle, then I would use a revolver. Hell, fuck .44 Magnum or .50 AE; if you want a more reliable one-shot kill, then get a S&W Model 500! Even if the shot misses, the blast would propel the bear away from you like a Fus Ro Dah from Skyrimming!

whats an aspie?

but i have gone over this with quite a few guns fanatics and gun smiths. It usually looks like this
Ruger
>pros
can handle some hot loads(like your mom)
...thats it.
>cons
heavy

S&W
>pros
higher quality steel
forged steel
generally better factory trigger over all of its competition.
easier to take apart
>cons
none really.

They both can have fantastic triggers, in fact the best trigger job i have ever felt was on a ruger.
They can both shoot what they are made for
They are both made pretty well
They both have fine cylinder releases.

smith and wesson makes a lighter yet just as strong gun because they forge their frame. Their stronger frame also allows for opens in the frame so they are easier to work on. while ruger uses cast frame which is heavier and they use a monolithic frame which makes disassembly not necessary harder but not as easy.
