~750 if it's not in great shape.
The fact that the CMP sells non-matching but otherwise sound shooters for $830 means the price is basically artificially set right now.
Once they run out I wouldn't be surprised if the price on the shooters actually dropped initially by maybe $100, before resuming the milsurp climb.

I really dont see how it is. Its much less comfortable, very unnatural, you have to stretch way out, your arms will get tired faster, and puts more weight on your trigger hand and almost none on your foreward hand.

Everyone should just feel out their favorite hand position and what forward grips they prefer and build on it. Enough show-off pretend operator trickery.

If that's what really works for you, then all the best.

So I'm pretty new to battle rifles and guns in general. An ammosexual friend of mine recommended getting a FAL parts kit (and it does seem cheaper) but after looking at the receivers more, it seems complicated. I can't just use any receiver with just any parts kit, can I? Should I just buy a completed one instead?

Can anyone explain to me the difference in chamber space/fluting between the PTR models? Since PTR keeps making modifications to their rifles, I get conflicting acccounts. Do all models eat all kinds of steel-cased/tar/surplus ammo, or is it just GI models that do? Will a bull-barreled PTR F still eat shitty surplus, or would you have to baby it more?

You see the pictures of the case getting just about sliced into a dozen little pieces, but you also have people saying that their brass just comes out with an ash pattern on it that you wipe off and have unmolested brass.
I suppose a guy could just run steel exclusively through his PoverTy Rifle and reloadable brass through the rest.

Some brass will turn out better than others. The worst brass damage from a PTR doesn't actually come from the flutes. The brass hitting the edge of the ejection port is what does the most, hence why many people get port buffers (pic related). Usually, the flute marks are relatively superficial but you'll get some that are more messed up than normal. I've seen several people reload G3 brass, it's just not always ideal.

Yea I know, but it only had to beat DSA when it came to railed handguards. I kinda like my CASV but the fact that I got two seperate rear screws from them that both had the wrong head size is a little annoying. Also it's slightly canted on my rifle cause the mounting is fucked up. And when I want to get it off I'm gonna have to take apart my gas system cause the screw head is stripped to shit due to it being way too soft and also the wrong size

Cause they're a hassle and even the people who own them say they're not fun toys. If you absolutely want one get a Springfield M1A and buy a USGI stock and sling but there's a reason everyone advises against them

>>33589886
So you have the stamp on it but stick with the 16 barrel? Or is it a bit shorter to still make use of it?

>>
>>33589880

Receiver shouldn't care about ammo, and the ammo shouldn't affect the receiver. The "steel is bad" camp is usually either arguing that the ammo is just of lower quality and therefore may not cycle, may foul rapidly, etc; or that the steel-on-steel chamber contact will cause it to erode rapidly; or that the coatings on the steel cases will gum up the chamber.

So it's the barrel and the gas assembly that you should care about, not the receiver.

>M1 long stroke more reliable than tappet
The M1 need very strictly specced ammo. While the M1A can eat pretty much any load of medium heat or lower. Try that shit with an M1 and I hope you have a spare op rod or reciever around.
I agree, the EBR stock is shit and optic mounting sucks.
Mags are kind of awkward at first but get better with experience. Also the trigger on mine was fine with no tuning so I don't know what the deal is there.
>>
>>33589880
I'll weigh in on the steel vs brass after shooting both through my FAL

I'm not letting it touch steel again, not so much just cause of the casing, but just because the available steel .308 is loaded so fucking hot. I bought some Tula .308 right before the election because I could get an extra 60 rounds and I ended up selling the extra for dirt cheap after I got brass. Even aetting my gas to 6.5 it kicked like a motherfucker even compared to .308 CoreLokt and the ejection was still going strong. It likes 7.62x51 a lot better, I can turn the gas down a lot more and get softer shooting with reliable ejection

>>33590267
Be fair to the M1, man. It takes repeated use with too-hot ammo to break one. Though I can't really deny that it will break under those conditions.

Also the M14 certainly was a little out of date even when it was made. For gods sake it's the only one of the big 3 that can take stripper clips.

Honestly, there's usually a few bulleted reasons people give for disliking the M1A/M14:
- out of date the moment it was introduced (see >>33590603)
- better platforms for MOA, especially when it comes to optic mounting
- cheaper platforms that perform same or better in comparative pricing

That doesn't mean it won't do it's job. You aim, you fire, it works, MOA withstanding (as others said, certain stocks suck, I have wood and no issues). Mag can be a little awkward (see >>33590267) if you don't read the fucking manual; which, if you get a Springfield M1A, they give you the M14 military technical manual, which clearly shows how not to be a fucking idiot... so failure to load right is a fault of its operator more than the firearm. If it's that confusing to you, just sit with an empty mag and practice reloading and unloading it until you get it. It's not that hard unless you got tiny hands or something.

So, if you like the M1A platform, do not care for optic mounting much, or frankly do not give much of a fuck about MOA and cost, go for it. If cost is a factor, if MOA is a factor, if optic mounting is a factor, then factor it in to whether you pick it or any other BR such as a FAL, G3, or other.

Unless you live in cuck-states, in which case it may legally be your only option.
>>
>>33590997
Well to be fair, those other rifles aren't particularly accurate either and the case could be made that M1A sights are exponentially better than FAL or PTR sights at precise shooting.

Mounting optics to a vintage FAL or G3 platform gun is equally difficult.

I'd argue that other than the stock layout, which is fine for semi auto IMO, it's a direct competitor to the FAL or PTR/G3.

FALs and G3 pattern guns come with rails for mounting optics now, which clearly is more suited for modern defensive uses.

Which the AR15 is superior at anyways so all you BRG fags trying to lug around .308 16" guns for SHTF are retarded.

They can be, assuming vintage as you said. Sights I do like myself, but I haven't tried FAL or PTR or G3 or anything like that, so I can't speak from experience.

For my post, I'm just listing what I often hear as the kind of catchphrase arguments people tend to put forth. Ultimately, it boils down to preference. You could have the fanciest gun, hell even an AR-15 or SCAR, but if you can't aim worth a shit the SHTF argument goes out the window.

I have my M1A for the woods and to deal with wildlife, and that's all I need it for. I don't even need to worry about SHTF situation; most people will get mauled by bears, coyotes or bobcats here.

I too am a left and know your plight.

The CETME/G3 family are all like that.

Cast receivers are fine. Just get a modern production one. Like everyone shits on DSA yet never gives a reason. I have however heard that they are just fine.

M14s are shid indeed.

AR10s are too light.


Personally I am just going to accept not having a carry handle on a FAL and buy a DSA. I was thinking of a PTR but as stated in your post and mine the charging handle is just too fucking far out there. Plus I'll get a warranty of some sort with a new production rifle. If you are dead set on building a FAL look on GB there are a few affordable kits on there. I was planning on doing that and just buying a DSA receiver but I don't feel like its worth the hassle.
>>
>>33594872
It's not the SCAR's fault that most optics are designed for 5.56 guns with lightweight reciprocating components (i.e., M4s).
>>
>>33594795
Why not just unshoulder the rifle, seat the stock on your thigh holding the foregrip with your right hand, and charge with your left?
Protip: that's how you reload an M1, so don't tell me "that won't work anon I need to keep the rifle shouldered" and then tell me that your solution is to buy an M1 which you'll unshoulder to reload every time.

I'd have to see if I can find what grain it was, but the CoreLokt I have is 180gr Soft Point, so even if it was 180gr Tula, it was very fuckin noticeable when I loaded some of that right after the Tula

Just checked, it was 150gr, so I'll let that speak for itself that even I found the 150 uncomfortable and hot as shit compared to 180gr .308

I feel like that's where most people's arguments lie and they just don't realize it. I sold off 1 extra box of it so I went through 200 rounds of the shit too, not like I found a couple overloaded ones in a single box
>>
>>33595208
Just so I understand what you're getting at, you're saying the recoil was noticeably higher than your other stuff, which you equate to increased wear?
>>
>>33595249
Not just recoil, there was a noticeable effect on the gas system

If you don't own an FAL, basically they have an adjustable gas block that goes from all the way open (7) down to all the way closed (1) in increments of .5

Generally you want to find out how close to open you can get the gun to run reliably and then close it down another .5-1 to guarantee function, and then the intention is if you get adverse conditions or something you'd close it up tighter so more gas is used to cycle the action

Now, using Tula 150gr I could open the system all the way up to 6.5 and get reliable function and noticeably higher recoil than 180gr Remington on #5, or Israeli 7.62x51 surplus (which i assume is 147gr) also on the #5 setting, but I probably could've turned that down since it cycled it relatively light to the 180

>tl;dr ammo is loaded too hot which causes the action to become more violent and THAT is what i'm equating with excessive wear on the parts
>>
>>33595280
So why not just open the gas vent more for the steel case to turn down the power on the piston? I assume that would be your first course of action.
>>
>>33595333
Turning it to 7 turns it into a bolt action rifle

Would make more sense if I had explained opened vs closed better. Turning it to 1 siphons a shitton of gas to the piston and 7 lets all the gas vent out of the system, everything in between makes the vent hole larger or smaller
>>
>>33595208
Weird I wonder if it has something to do with how the steel casing expels pressure? Now I want to shoot alternating Tula and brass case out of my PTR and try to feel a difference. Ive never felt a huge kick out of Tula with my PTR
>>
Does the bull barrel on some of the PTR 91 models make a siginficant difference in accuracy, or is it not really worth the extra cost and weight over a PTR 91 GI?

The AK fails this test badly too, as does the M1 Garand. Both are regarded as legendary combat rifles.

Dirt ingress into a rifle is not as important as people make it out to be on the internet, and even AR15s with it's legendary sealed system suffer over in the sandbox with fine dust.

>>33594072
That's not indicative of a windy day or just a little mud on your gun lol. Look at the M1s mud test.

>>33594083
The M14 is an accurate rifle, why do you noguns faggots keep meming this.

It's NOT a precision weapon or a snipers tool, however. You can't expect any of the big 3 or even most ARs to shoot better than 2 MOA while scoped.

Can't say what optic would do it for you. The aimpoint looks good, although I can never imagine how the fuck people look down them when they're so forward; I have glasses though so that doesn't help when trying to view through optics.

>>33596349
Will we ever see a day these types of "tests" where they dump shit into the rifle die? I swear all they do is promote dick-waving.

The locking surfaces in the M14's action are totally exposed (how lewd) and vulnerable to dust/mud infiltration that kills the gun. Shooting it indoors would avoid this.
National Match accurized M14s are notoriously fragile; rough handling, to include touching the upper handguard or just shooting them, causes them to deaccurize in short order. There's a well-known incident from late in Carlos Hathcock's life where him and his NM M14 took a spill and the guy he was walking with prioritized catching the gun over catching the legendary sniper. This reputaion for fragility is often memed over onto regular M14s.

Nigga, did you even look at your link? I mean fuck, it's even in the page title.

>>33602205
Yeah, I see now. Listed in §5–101, named regulated firearm. [5-101(r)(2) of the Public Safety Article]

Oddly, I don't see the SCAR... I do see G3, FAL, M1A, and AR-15... am I missing it?

Also, sorry you live in a cuck state.
>>
>>33602423
It's not a BM59 unless it takes BM59 magazines, which your hypothetical rifle wouldn't.
Furthermore, even if it did, it's still an M1 Garand, for the same reason that a transferable M16 with a 14.5" barrel and an adjustable stock is still an M16, not an M4, and an M1 carbine with a receiver marked "M2" is still a machine gun, even if it's not capable of full-auto fire.
It says "M1" on the receiver, so that's what it is, period.

Does the clip latch actually do anything on mag fed garand variants?

The SCAR probably came after the ban.

You can get it replaced with a BM59-style bolt stop, but otherwise no.

Considering slapping a decent optic on my L1A1 to make a sort of "DMR". Which mounts are worth looking into? Kinda thinking of something like pic related, but with a mix of wood/black furniture.

Also, are there handguards that allow the bipod to fold flush? How good are they?

You're gonna need a metric FAL. Buy a SUIT scope for 350-400 bucks, an OIP or a Hensoldt+mount will run you about 6-700 bucks anyways if you can find one

No I meant you're not gonna get to put a bunch of metric shit on it, I don't think the STANAG mounts interface properly on them

Also your barrel isn't BC so buying BC handguards would be a waste. Buy a SUIT if you want to turn your L1A1 into a DMR otherwise get a metric FAL, metric wood with BC handguard, and get a STANAG mount+OIP or Hensoldt optic

If I had SCAR money I wouldnt be asking about battle rifles I'd just be throwing it at a smith to build me a custom barreled action with some absurdly long barrel chambered in 6.5 Creedmore or something.

>>33603990
How much do good ones cost and will it get closeish to the Timney in my 700?

>>33603989
18" is a problem unfortunately. If I wanted to go the building route, how much does it cost for a fairly normal upper, not including the barrel? Maybe a better way of asking is if I spend good money on a barrel for a build, how much more should I expect to spend for the rest of the upper? Pricing lowers + LPK + stock is easy enough for me.

Yeah but at that point it's not about just barrel length. When it really comes down to it, I just prefer bolt action precision guns above almost anything else. Stuff like pistols, lever guns, and the battle rifle that I'm considering are fun ways to mess around but I try not to go overboard with them. If I ever had the 3k+ needed to consider buying a SCAR I'd definitely just be trying to get an affordable version of my dream rifle built, something like a blueprinted Remington 700 action, 26" M40 contour barrel in 6.5 Creedmore, XLR element chassis, various odds and ends for the rest.

so many faugettes with their nose up their own ass. Dont want to get their Monster *tm competition shirts dirty from low-crawling through 4 inches of mud or moving structure to structure.

Nah just ducking behind piles of tires and pulling shotguns out of barrels like its a fucking video game just to show how cool you are shoving a shell through the breach instead of just having a loaded shotgun to begin with.

Dont forget to spread your legs and squat in front of the camera when shooting your glock 17 with the reddot mini. Being a badass in a super sterile and clean environment is what matters.
