Firearm BS thread

Got my tax return Monday and ordered some ammo from Underwood yesterday. Today they sent me a discount code that's supposedly only good for 48 hrs but I won't be ordering anything else in that time frame. First come, first serve.

"THANKYOU10-G3KAWX7U"

 

if you don’t want the fn anymore then sure it’s a no brainer, I want to pick up one of the A300’s as well they look nice and for right around 1k I’m sold for sure

 

I think you need both shotguns but thats just me talking or all 3 if you want the 1301 also

 

Speaking of 5.7....thoughts on the M&P 5.7?

Speaking of shottys...

 

I vote 1301 but I'm obviously biased

 

Well my cool looking carry handle AR I bought has turned into a turd. Got it over to a gunsmithing buddy of mine. Got the barrel tightened up, still getting an occasional double tap. He suspects a worn or mess with trigger. No problem, got a mil spec laying around. Still getting FTE. Cleaned the chamber really well. It seems that's been messed up/with too. Some rounds have to be hammered out. So now it needs a new barrel.

Also, the 1990s cast (not forged) lower receiver has a chunk missing from the top of the mag well. Nothing function but might as well get a new lower. So I decided to go all A2 and buy a Del-Ton 20" barrel. Thinking about using triangular handguards.
But at this point I've basically bought a carry handle upper and A2 stock, since everything else needs replacing.

 

Well chit.

 

Makes sense to me.

 

Picking up my Sig Spear in 7.62x39 in a couple days. Will it replace my SCAR17, only time will tell. 2 different beasts but my gut says it will.


For reference

 

The SCAR 17 feels large in stature, but not too heavy with the right optics. I set mine up with a Giessele trigger and it rips!! Paired with an FNX45 Tac and the SPR in .308
The trio is pretty slick.

 

That's pretty sweet.

 

I hope it works for you. Sig and the x39 round don’t have a great history. Based on my experience with a 556R several years ago I can say don’t expect it to run on anything but match grade ammo. My 556R went in for warranty work 3 times and still couldn’t get through a 20 round mag with fewer than 3 malfunctions. Might be a light strike, failure to feed, or failure to eject. The only malfunction I didn’t get was a double feed. The only answer I could get was that it ran fine on whatever bougie ammo they were using. Then again, none of the Sigs I bought between 2010 and 2015 worked. At all. At least my 365 functions. The sights are way off, but it does go bang every time (so far).

 

This is a completely new system for Sig. It will run match to steel case wolf. I did my research on this before the purchase. That sucks you had such a bad experience with Sigs. My legions and MPX run flawlessly, and haven’t had any hiccups. I have seen a lot of AR10 platforms that can get finicky in .308, not so much AK platforms.
The Spear in .762 only makes sense for me, as all I shoot are FALs, AKs, M1As, and large bolt guns. It’s a piston driven system and has no buffer tube or spring, which is my preference.

 

Boom stick
