Ignore the haters. They're great value, solid Glock clones. Wait until they do one of their deals for the optics cut threaded barrel version with 10 spare mags. They do it pretty regularly for <$400.

Yeah, I got the threaded barrel, RMR cut slide, and suppressor height sights for $300 because of a blemished deal ( that I have have searched for all over, can't find. ) Fantastic pistol, though I don't like the sights, and the trigger... Well, it makes it go bang. That's about the best I'll say about that.

Have heard some of the strikers breaking though, I'll probably replace mine with a Glock striker.

I saw that deal and kicking my self I didn't bite on it for Mrs. Basso.

I normally hate shot show because it's look at our NEW IDEA ON A DI AR but that 1x thermal.. brah on my 11. inch SBR canned larue... yeah please nigga break in I'm literally the mother fucking predator now.

I mean this in Roblox, ATF I don't plan on killing people who just want to steal my tv.
 
Any suggestions on where to buy just an upper wooden handguard for an AK? Everywhere I see wood furniture for sale it comes in sets.

I love this wacky German end of days shit. Literal Fallout Weaponry. This one is basically a Mauser but semi auto. And for what it is, kinda sexy. That heat shroud is simply beautiful, and a sign of German over engineering, even when they were losing everything.

My man, that gun has as much in common with a 98 Mauser as an MG42, and even then only because of the shared cartridge. Different receiver, different sights, pistol grip stock, no bolt at all! Zero shared parts, or even parts that look alike. Though I guess the barrel could be a K98 barrel because it's easier to reuse difficult to make parts. There's also that step in the barrel near the front which looks kind of similar but either way it's been radically modified for the action. Gonna guess that shroud is actually probably functional and necessary, because of the blow forward action. If anyone holds or touches the barrel it'll likely impede it, probably easy to do with that shit-ass stock.

Beauty is wildly subjective but I think that gun is fucking uglier than sin, but functionality of guns is what interests me about them, this one really does stand out from the perspective of "we need something get it out NOW" and to at least get prototypes of something for that purpose but also make it semi-automatic is pretty nifty.

Getting rid of some old shit is nothing.

Basically. Some of it is strictly less old stuff, the M72 LAW hasn't been viable for tanks since Vietnam, and only barely by then, but it's pretty light to carry, easy to use, and it'll still blow up an IFV or anything less armored than that, so they stay in service. Still in production, I'm pretty sure, so replacing them is easy.
Some Bradleys and older M113s were also sent over. The M113 is out of production, but the Bradley isn't, and I've heard talks of developing a variant of it without the assloads of firepower, as to make a roomier and lighter APC counterpart which can be built on most of the same parts and production lines.

Maybe some day, with a less gay government :optimistic:, the older M113s can be surplused to the American people. Take off the machinegun and it's effectively a glorified terrain vehicle, may be easier for the feds to stomach.

So this is why NDS stuff vanished..... So they can make niche meme ARs.... Yay 😒

Meme ARs is what Nodak Spud was mostly about, as far as I recall. They did some AK and 10/22 stuff as well, I suppose.

Also they're 6 months late on NDS stuff..... Typical PSA shit

Aren't long waits also normal for NDS? I remember many complaints about that too.
 
This video popped up on youtube for me and it made me think:


Everyone in the comments says Ayoob is way off base, totally wrong, you shouldn't say a word, etc. But knowing Ayoob's history and credentials I'm not so sure. I've always been under the thought that the less you say the better, but this video and his 5 points gave me some food for thought, at least. What are your thoughts on it?

I haven't watched it because work, but Ayoob is peak boomer permanently stuck in the 70s and 80s and he's been wrong before. This is the guy who preaches that modifying your firearm will put you in jail in a defensive use case despite there being exactly zero instances of that happening. He was maybe last relevant 20 years ago but certainly not today.

DESIGNER(S)
John L. Hill

YEAR(S) DESIGNED​

1952/53

NUMBER BUILT​

c.7 – 8

Overview​

The Hill SMG was designed in 1952. It was chambered for 9×19mm Parabellum ammunition, which was stored in a then-unique magazine system that was aligned and mounted on the top of the weapon. The magazine was transparent. The empty casings were ejected through the pistol grip. Ammunition for the magazines was pre-packed, since there was no magazine opening in the gun. Two models were made, one with a wooden grip and stock, and another with a plastic pistol grip and no stock. Because of its complexity, the weapon has never achieved any success beyond prototype stages. Its design, however, perhaps inspired the very similar FN P90 PDW.

Really I just meant it was a Mauser in function; 5 rounds, no frills, still has some wood. And by pretty, yeah it looks like a cludge, but in a Warhammer 40k kinda way, it's charming lol. I do agree it probably needs that shroud with the blow forward, I just think it's over engineered for 1944 for when it came out and how fucked the Germans were during the war.

I would kill to have a M113 camper. The bears would never get my snacks lol. As for the stuff like the LAWs were sending over, my point exactly. Once you actually take the time to look at the shit were sending over, it's mostly obsolete stuff, and the "high tech" stuff we sent over, is stripped down, like those M777 Howitzers, they took the targeting computers off. Even stuff like the Abrams, we're sending over 31, literally nothing, and without DU armor. The Russians gain nothing and Ukraine can't reverse engineer shit.
