Save your money. If you MUST spend and haven't actually spent any money on anything yet (ammo, mags), I'd go for a bolt action in 30-06. It's kind of a transition period. When the military settles on a new caliber, go with that. Otherwise, go with tried and true. Battle rifles are going to be overpriced (SCAR) or have mediocre accuracy (FAL, PTR).

The more I think about it, yeah. Save your money. Buy an optic instead, then put it on next year's rifle.

I'd you want something practical, with low recoil with some classic flair : SA58

Pratictical but can wear both wood and modern furniture well as take a lot of neglect and abuse: PTR from Atlantic Firearms.


Want something with great or familiar ergo and can basically be a great way to build your perfect rifle including caliber swaps from 308, 6.5,or specialty shit and can wear old time wood stocks or a free float rail : Ar308 DPMS pattern.


If you want something modern, unique, and has a major advantage among other bull pups and battle rifles :. Keltec RFB


If you want something modern that you can sink your money into even after 2.5K on just the base rifle just for a 16" barrel : SCAR H

Ignore 7.62 proper and get an ARAK-21. 300 ACC Blackout is usually a meme round but on a multi-calibre platform you're actually better off.

Why would you buy an ARAK? It's an unproven platform with limited support outside of Faxon. Forget about getting longer rails, etc.

The LMT barrel swap system is pretty easy. In fact, it's easier than the SCAR. The cost, of course, is weight. The LMT's barrel lock up is hefty!

Holy shit, what the fuck is he doing?

These guys are clearly awful at this "testing". The stove-piping is clearly caused by his hand (see 08:04) and his claim that an AR-15 would survive the same treatment is blatantly stupid because the trigger problem was caused by getting mud in the AR lower.

I have my criticisms of the platform but christ alive.
>>
>>34085577
I don't know, the thing that I like about the ARAK (in theory, I haven't gotten a chance to play with it) is the easy access. You've got the adjustable ambidextrous charging handle and variable gas impingement settings that you can mess around with without field stripping. I wish there was more after market but it just seems like it'd be a good time.

And probably the only make of AR comparable to KAC. KAC and LMT are really the top of the line as far as AR platforms go. They're the only two AR brands I can think of who have had a lot of hands on time developing their products for and working with NSWC-C and SOCOM. Gucci brands need not apply.

I am plenty of Gucci, but my budget isn't your typical k/unt's 6 month scrap saving.

I have shot the MWS8 and the SR-25, and there are a lot of shortcomings on both rifles. The areas where they excel, namely durability with the E-bolt system and the lobster tail extractor, are geared towards problems civilian shooters will never encounter.

also accuracy concerns. Especially with the chrome lined barrel.

The SR-25's biggest problem for me was ammo sensitivity.

>>34085940
>Civilians don't need a durable bolt
so what you're telling me is that you are willing to pay about 1k USD premium for a feature that is tailored towards a full automatic fire/extended fire schedule, the same feature which can be replaced by buying an extra bolt.

Are you now going to tell me I'm poor for debating this value proposition?

Buy $50 scope mount, mount scope. It also looks cooler because it's lower profile due to the receiver being above the cheek weld area.

I would have gotten a 308 or 7.62x54 vepr by now but I'm afraid it's going to give me FAL tier 5moa accuracy. What are you getting out of yours?

I will second the recommendation for the LR-308. I've had one for about eight years. It's an excellent gun.

>>34084284

7.62 and .308 are not full cartidge sizes, you need the length as well. 7.62 and .308 are the same technically speaking.
>>
>>34086565
>surprisingly

Doesn't surprise me. The 100 series types (which most 308 AKs are) are much better in the accuracy field than their cheaply made AKM counterparts. We're still not talking ~1moa which is what I would want out of a .308 machine, but if real combat reliability is a concern an AK is a good option.

No clue i only pout 2 boxes of ammo though it trying to unsuccessfully sight the scope in. It recoils so hard it blew the back of the the Arsenal mount and fucked the aluminum all up. So i gave up on the idea of making it a budget DMR and it's been sitting in my gun cabinet ever since.

I have heard reports of 2 MOA accuracy from a lot of people but it is ammo picky and likes German surplus.

This is a load of bullshit. There is nothing particularly accurized about the 100 series, and if anything they're MORE "cheaply made" than the AKM thanks to manufacturing optimizations (stamped gas tube lever, bump rivet, dimple pressed barrel components).

Both are capable of 2 MOA given the right conditions.

Yeah i did, I bought the Arsenal scope mount because it was touted as the lightest weight rail at the time and i didn't want a 20 pound gun. The aluminum was thin where it contacted the rail mount and when i was trying to sight it in i could not get it zeroed. At first i blamed the Bushnell Elite 3200 i had on it. Then i happened to see the mount and it was peening the fuck out of it, it was budged a bit and if i kept shooting it it would have completely blown through the aluminum.

The molot mount was built heavy but at the time they were all sold out and there was talk of Molot being banned from import. So i was about to buy a POSP but i was a bit uneasy about fucking up a $300 scope after thrashing a $140 Arsenal SM-13 rail.

Sounds like you just need a heavier mount. I have no idea how am style rails are mounted, but is it possible the rail holes were over sized? You really want a tight fit on rails and doodads or they will rattle themselves loose.

I found the pic of the damage it did and this was only 20 rounds of ammo. I got pissed off and gave up on sighting it in and later seen this bullshit.

And yeah the rail was slid all the way forward and it was tight. If i had adjusted it to clamp any tighter i would have fucked the clamp it trying to close it.

Your loss. Absolutely nothing wrong with them, and they use better barrels than rifles costing twice as much.

The pressure difference with either is negligible. They test in different places so it looks bigger than it is.

Nobody's made a 7.62x51 rifle that couldn't also shoot .308win commercial since 1953, and fewer than 10,000 total rifles were produced that couldn't safely fire commercial .308win.

fuckin kek. i bought a 308 vepr, put two magazines through it, couldnt adjust the front sight and put it away in my safe as well.
i also had dreams of a dmr style rifle but ultimately, it didnt do anything for me.
one of these days, ill get enough motivation to sell it, i dont care much either way

I've had an AR-10 and currently have a STG-58 kit FAL and a PTR-91. The AR-10 was ok, it was a PSA gen 1 that worked very well. It was reasonably accurate and with optic and mags ran me about $1200. But it was boring. Accuracy was good but not amazing and it was no different than shooting my AR-15's.

The FAL is very nice and fun to shoot. I have a top railed cover but haven't put it through any accuracy testing.

I love the PTR-91. Tons of surplus parts and mags out there. The trigger was shitty at first but really smoothed out after about 500 rounds. It always works. It has to be the most reliable gun I have ever had. It does beat up the brass and is really dirty due to blowback. It beats brass up pretty bad. They are reloadable but take some work getting back into shape. I hunt alone a lot. Moose/Bear/Cougar country so having that reliable 308 semiautomatic rifle is very nice.

Ar10's is the one thing dpms got right, they were lightyears ahead of everyone a few years ago but didn't develop shit a la colt.


Their .223/5.56 guns do suck you ain't wrong about that.
>>
>>34092222
The thing to do is buy a basic DPMS gen 2 AR10 for less than $1000 and swap parts until you have your ideal modern rifle.

The DPMS gen 2 actually copied a few things from the SR25.

Not KAC spec

Yes, a few, not all
KAC spec is superior.

What scope on the PTR? AND how much did the matching wide handguard set you back? It sounds like G3 surplus is drying up and ze germans don't want to export more
>>
>>34092867
Generally more accurate, and yes, less slop
>>
>>34092880
It's a Primary Arms 5x prism. The wide handguard was black but I painted it green. It was Turkish I believe.

Here is an HK set I just ordered for the black look:
https://www.apexgunparts.com/h-k-g3-hk91-stock-handguard-and-grip-set-good.html

The HK furniture is better than the PTR stuff. My rifle is an A3S that came with black furniture. The front handguard didn't have a heat shield.

Apparently there is a new .308 AP round that will defeat plates

Has anyone worked on putting a empty mag bolt hold onto a G3? Not having one of those is the only reason I don't own a G3 style rifle.

Ok yeah that is cheap china stuff.

You've been wrong 2/3 times.
>>
>>34093557
Oh the optic is even 1,9k burger bux.
>>
>>34084091
I'd get a PoF Revolution. I like AR comparability, it's like 7.5lbs, manageable recoil, 16" barrel, ~1moa.

It's like my AR10, but better in all the ways I want.
>>
>>34093093
We already have such ammo, it's called tungsten carbide core ammo.
Then there are slap rounds, also usually tungsten carbide but going at 4000 fps.
>>
>>34093657
Why? Just build one.
I'll be getting Gibbz side charging upper, some compatible quality lower, kak double extractor bolt, X-caliber 308 18 inch bull barrel 4140 nitride 1:8 twist, f&d handguard with quick change barrel system(need to modify lower for that), sig pistol braxe(old one).
If I could afford it I get f&ds lower and upper with no stock and barrel but that's like 2k plus 500 for the brace and barrel.
>>
>>34093647
>Shitty reticles
>mediocre lighting
>uninspiring FOV
its a budget buy
>>
>>34093716
Yeah yeah, sure it is.

Here's the kicker. I paid 850 for it.

Show me a better glass for that price or for 1,6k. Burgertrash need not apply
>>
>>34093757
>For the price
Thats the issue.
Once you got above a 2.5-10x the only really good options are going to be starting at $2250.

Vortex AMG, k624i, pmii, etc.

Mind you im cheaping out myself with an NXS, though if I get a creedmoor barrel, im going to step it up.
>>
>>34093795
I actually handled the Schmidt & Bender PMII and found the difference to be negligible.

Also I'm not using the MR for anything serious (shooting paper <500m) so I don't feel the need to shell out that kinda money.

Then again I paid <3000€ for the gun + optic.
>>
>>34093830
Not a bad price.
It come with the bare steel barrel or chromed?
>>
>>34093851
Chromed.

Yeah, sad story behind it actually.
Guy was forced by his bitch wife to sell it.
Our store bought it from him for cheap and I bought it with a tiny markup from the store.

10 mags, hardcase, HK padded sling etc. included.
>>
>>34093631
>Meopta meostar 6-24x56
>~1,6k $
1.6k for a 6-24x scope is pretty budget tier.
>>
>>34089642
they're not over priced, they're not out shined by AR10s.

Retards complain about their price because they're poor, and they talk shit about it because they're rationalizing their poverty.
>>
>>34093757
>Show me a better glass for that price
>for that price
if you wanted to justify your poverty, you can always post in ARG.

Two people here made it very clear that your optic choice is purely a "value" proposition.
