Libyan Conversion of an M8C 12.7x77 Spotting Rifle into an Anti-Material Rifle
Italians With Beretta NARP
Vietnamese APDS 7.62x25
Bakalov Assault Rifle by Bulgarian (American?) Georgi Bakalov, could apparently be converted to and from 5.56, 7.62x39 and NATO. Could accept a Bayonet and grenade launcher at the same time
"AK-12+", a more SPRish AK-12M1 with a longer, heavier threaded barrel, AK-308 hand guard and no GP or Bayonet lugs and for some reason a conventional style AK leaf sight

Seeing the string of PCC posts earlier but nothing I think I will reply to directly, I never got into PCCs and the reason is pretty simple. Most PCCs are not significantly smaller or lighter than a SBR AR, especially if it folds. For instance, my MCX Rattler variant. I know...
>sig
>300blk
but it's basically the same weight and size as an SP5, which I no longer own btw because it was a meme gun and I was able to sell it for more than I paid for it, so the only thing it offered was using the same ammo as my carry guns, which isn't a huge deal. PCCs are just too expensive for what they are, and the cheap ones just aren't interesting enough and have reliability issues, actually some of the expensive ones do. I'm not spending $3,000 on something that only offers being a few oz lighter than my already pretty optimized folding AR variant, and using 9x19 instead of 5.56 or 300blk.
I can't decide if I want to run BUIS on my primary AR, or if I want to run a magnifier for my red dot.
The irons... they're fine. Daniel Defense metal BUIS that aren't plastic shit, and that don't fold down. Ideally I'd have some Knights Armaments lollipops like we did in the service, but lol at spending $300 on a single rear sight aperture.
Thing is, the red dots today are not the foamy diarrhea they were 20+ years ago. My Aimpoint PRO is as reliable as anything.
I also realize that I will not ever need to rely on 'my gear' as if my life depends on it, and that we're all just larping faggots who decided that shooting guns was less gay than some other money hole hobby.
Kiwis you ever get bored of AR15s and try other 556 stuff? I remember when I thought i was getting bored of guns in general but I got to try other guns and the love came back. Thinking about min maxing the akb23 or sending the hk33 clone off to get some love ( paddle mag release, barrel swap, rail weld on.)
No. Because everything I get a passing interest in is expensive and usually offers maybe one advantage over its AR platform equivalent. I do have SU-16s though.
Yeah you'd expect the italians to have better aesthetics, they look like they're wearing generic soldier Halloween costumes with whatever gear could be found at a surplus store.
Anyone have any experience with RIA's stuff? TAC ULTRA FS gives me pajeet vibes so I'm immediately suspicious of the quality, but I want a 10mm 1911 and I'd rather not spend twice as much for a Delta Elite. I also weirdly like the more rectangular 1911s with the full rail over the traditional style.

welp, i'm buying it for 1800 lol.
my budget for guns is fucked for the rest of the year lol!
Now we get to see how hard it is to walk someone through doing an e-forms transfer

They’re not very great in terms of fit and finish, and the disassembly process is very uniquely proprietary. That being said, they’re made in the Philippines and my brother owns an RIA 1911 in 10mm. It eats anything without issue. Surprisingly pleasant to shoot as well.

I'm not too worried about fit and finish provided it isn't an unreliable piece of shit. That it shoots whatever you put in it is good enough for me. It's mostly going to be a range toy for me since I carry a G17 daily.

The 55 grains out of 5.56 out of 5" barrel is a noise maker. MV is a joke+ keyholing issues and pissing off the guy next to you, God help him if it's an indoor range. I personally drink the .300BLK koolaid and I know a few inches is enough to get 125 grains lethal and subsonic 200+ grains is going to do some damage and keep the can far shorter than any 16" carbine.
Now I have a hard on for PDW platforms so this is all subjective. The itty bitty 9mm SBR willl always be king of room clearing and tight corners.
Rarely do I ever hear anyone talk about the value of a supressor in some weird home defense situation. 9mm out of a pistol no earpro and your hearing is fucked for days. If I tag some figure in the dark they fall behind a couch or arund a corner I want to hear a "THUD" I want to hear subtle movement or moaning if they are still alive. I want to hear the police bang on he front door from across the house identiifying themselves as LE so no misunderstadnings occour.
I have a home built 9mm AR. lower was cheaper than a fucking tank of gas the upper was CMMG radial although don't recall paying more than 600$ OTD on sale. I had a bunch of Glock 33 sticks already. So add a cheap flashlight and medium level red dot and I'm well under $1000. Why the fuck not?
What I don't like about it:
Magazine stop needs tuning. relies on bolt
Lower has No LRBHO
No Forward charging handle
I'm working on fixing these issues in my garage in my free time. Stay tuned for some white trash engeering.

Sad but true. I have a X95 and want a AUG then that's it for bullpups. I have a PSAK-103 and want (kinda) a wood furniture AK for kino aesthetics then that's literally it for my non AR semi autos rifles.
Note I don't consider a MP5 to be a rifle so it doesn't count

with what projectile? at 1000FPS or less your projectiles either need to be a premium ballistic-tip type bullet or a very soft soft point because at that low velocity you are relying on expansion only for damage. I'd also want a round nose or flat point as well to increase effect on target. Most .30 cal projectiles are just going to be too tough and icepick right on through the target unless they hit a major bone like the pelvis or femur. even the "anemic" .30-30 gets ~2400FPS. and of course, the fancy copper rounds rely on velocity to achieve expansion because they are tough by design.
this whole conundrum is why .300 black never interested me, because if you need supers for assured performance, why bother with .300 to begin with? if your not breaking the sound barrier the best thing to have is a projectile with as big of a diameter as you can because hydro static and hydraulic shock are not a factor at those velocities. A ~10 inch .500 S&W lever gun (or single shot) has always appealed to me, but I don't care to go through the SBR process on a gun i'm not building at home.
Permanently, tbh, since you're talking about home defense which means indoors. Anecdotal, but my perceived experience is that at the range my 9mm +P HSTs out of my carry pistols seem just as loud as if not louder than my 300blk MCX and its typical load of 200/220 subsonic rounds, even without a suppressor. It is unreasonably expensive though.
Recently heard a retard talk some retarded shit about shooting through a windshield. He was a DCJS instructor too. People get funny ideas sometimes.
Suppressor very good inside, sound considerations are wise, knowing you backdrop mandatory, obviously you want to make some choices left of bang before you need to use a gun in your home.
But gentlemen, if someone is breaking into your fucking house with you home, there is a rather short priorities list.
and crying rn
