Isn’t the M60 actually slightly lighter than the M240G?

Yes, though it has that bullpup layout due to the FG42 DNA. The point of balance is off when you got a full belt loaded. Cutting down the barrel in later models I think was to address that, among other things

I've never had them side by side but I think they're real close to the same weight empty.

Thread tax: remember how I got the Ruger MkIV Hunter a few months back? I finally got the Volquartsen upgrades installed. It was nice enough without them but now it's a whole lot better. No more magazine disconnect either.

It went from this:

To this:

But it's still a Ruger. Check out these gouges in the frame of a $700+ pistol. Thanks a lot whatever faggot at the factory did this.

@SHIGGSHOGG "ability to use bullets double the weight of .300 subs"
-The heaviest I've seen those is 255 grains. Most common subs for 300 BLK I've seen are 220. Anyway, I agree it could be a better caliber for shooting people with a suppressed rifle, but don't forget 300 BLK has been around for like 16 years and it works well in SBRs. As I've said before, 300 BLK is a very niche caliber but for 0-150 yds it's dam hard to beat.

they'd probably replace it if you sent it back. They gave me a new cylinder for a wrangler for free despite me fucking up the first one semi-intentionally.

Anyone got some recs for a cheapo red dot? I bought a second hand TX22 for plinking and I don't want to drop too much on glass for a Taurus. It's not competition but it is optics ready, RMSC footprint

An entire Sheriff's department in Montana has been outfitted with compensated pistols



Electronic fire rate control is something I could see incorporated into the machineguns of the future, coupled with constant recoil they would be laser beams

Integrally suppressed, yet with a modular suppressor system

Lastly, James Reeves (of TFBTV) said in a reply on X that there are "major releases" coming from Glock in 2025
The only things I can think of are
-Gen 6 (but what would it even include?)
-Maybe 20rnd Glock made G44 mags as James was using some kind of high capacity mag in that FA G44 video he made that went viral
-Glock stops being stupid and released the MOS-X series guns to the public (for those unaware, Glock makes pistols with direct mount optic cuts under the names MOS-1/2/3 etc etc for different footprints but for whatever reason refuses to sell them to civilians)
-Redux of the 43X and 48 to include 1.5x stack technology
-Maybe that Glock MRDS that Tactical Rifleman mentioned offhandedly like 4 years ago
-Release of the Glock AR that there exists like one picture of that failed the UKSF contract trials to the public.
Any other ideas?

primary arms classic 21mm MRS or SIG Romeo Zero might be the cheapest one i'd be willing to use regularly since a red dot can often be moved around if needed. if you don't mind always on and simpler (less) features, Vector Optics has a $60 model that is suitable for a .22 and plinking use all day long. https://www.opticsplanet.com/vector-optics-frenzy-s-1x16x22-aut-red-dot-sight.html

ADE makes a decent optic in the RMSc footprint, the Spike. It's only ~$100 so it's not the greatest but it's only going on a .22, so it should be fine. Holosun 407K is the go-to if you're willing to spend $250.

I've seen some amazing reviews on the Foxarmy FXV22 as well. Some dude threw his in an oven for an hour and it was working fine. Put it in a water bucket for an hour and yup, fine. It's ~$150 with an RSMc footprint.

I'm curious my only concern is the price range. You have a bunch of options there and a lot of them are very good.

For sure not cheap but Andrew makes good stuff and I feel confident about their warranty. I don't need one but like many things we talk about in this thread, I'm probably buying one.

@ToEnsureVerification no clue why the quote function isn't working for your post but I'm in a similar boat regarding the M&P and red dot sights. Do you have an optics ready slide on yours?

Sorry, the @ didn't work in my notifications. Yes, I bought it optics ready as I foresaw my eyes giving me shit. As for recommendations, the only thing I want, that I'm not sure my current model has is co-sharing sights (I think that's the term, when the sights align the red dot and the dot is not much higher) but honestly I don't know a lot about red dots and I don't want to give bad advice. If I pick a red dot, I'll have to make sure the sight aligns with it, or I'll buy new sights.
