Firearm BS thread

my buddy has one and its his EDC. Been a while since I've shot it but from what i remember it was pleasurable to shoot.

 

Shot some guns today.

 

Is that bottom one a CZ 75?

 

No It's a Eaa Witness 9mm which is a clone of the cz75.

 

That explains why the front part of the slide and the frame didn't look right, lol.

 

Just got a email from gcode letting me know I ordered 4 weeks ago. This wait is brutal.

 

These things are solid!! Hoping to get them mounted tomorrow

 

Got everything mounted up and torqued down. Now to get it sighted in.

 

Looks good. Doubt you could have gone lower.

 

I was going to measure to see if i could get away with medium rings, but i think I'm just goning to leave it

 

Just checking in, my TW profile had crashed for a week 1/2, and finally came back up. Hi y'all!

 

If it's a little high you can get a velcro rest to help with the cheek weld.

 

before I go out looking figured I'd ask....any left handed guys used a thumbhole stock commonly found on the VEPRs? Been considering picking one up since I have a ton of 54r already. Just unsure of the stock and me being left handed how it would work.

My first choice would be a SVT-40 but Im not willing ot pay the prices ive seen on them currently

 

Like so?

 

Yep, I got one of

Voodoo Tactical Buttstock Cheek Piece, Black

these for my M1a, it helps when I use the scout scope.

 

Anyone familiar with the HK416 (M27 Marines)? Just read there is talk Marines will replace all their M4's with it.

 

NICE! Nice replaced

 

Isnt the HK416 basically just another variant of the AR-15? Short piston instead of DI, adjustable gas block instead of normal, ect type small changes. Not saying those are bad things but wouldnt be a bad change either.

 

I would submit to you that going from DI to a piston isn't really a "small" type change. Sure, the rifle basically looks like an AR-15 but since the gas system is basically the heart of a select fire weapon it's a pretty big change, IMO. I haven't fired the M27 but fired the M4 plenty. It was more than adequate and reliable. Would be interesting to see the Corps field a rifle en masse that was different from what the Army uses....since commonality and cost and all.
