/frtssg/ - Forced Reset Trigger & Super Safety General

Previous:>>64899646

What are FRTs:
Forced Reset Triggers (FRTs) are firearm modifications that allow semi-automatic rifles to fire more rapidly by automatically resetting the trigger after each shot, while still requiring a trigger pull for each round. They increase the rate of fire without converting the firearm into a fully automatic weapon.

AR-15 is the most ubiquitous platform with the most amount of options. Other platforms have other nuances.

I have a V Seven lower ‘enlightened’, I had it all installed this Friday, ARC fire trigger ambi kit, but it didn’t work. It was like semi fire, and occasional trigger was stuck. I then added lever blocker to it and that did the trick. Shit i just shot one mag, I couldn’t believe it. I never shot auto but I can’t image it’s much different than this
>>
>>65049798
yeah you need the lever blocker for any trigger that has a tail-less hammer like geissele. Nice that it works! I'll actually considered a V Sever lower for a build but I was uncertain of the shelf.

If mid-Cold War had sea skimming missiles but no reliable CIWS / SHORAD, how were ships expected to not die?

>When cold war-era missile seekers go active they don't know which target to prioritize, they simply lock onto the strongest return
Not all of them. Some had a tiny bit of logic built in that was able to randomly select one of the strong returns.

The idea was that this would cause a missile salvo to naturally spread out instead of overkillling the first or largest return, and it might help against chaff clouds.
Soome missiles also had IR seekers, and some could be set to home-on-jam.

It mamy loook primitive from today's perspective, but they were really pushing whaht their electronics could do.
>>
>>65049705
Yeah but that's implying the formation is very close together. And while Cold War era formations were tighter than today, it was still feasible to station a ship far enough forward on the threat vector to eat the salvo.
>>
>>65046317
Falklands was the war where every nation realised how vulnerable their ships were to ASMs and adapted.
The UK didn't have adequate defences during that war, but you are correct in that they did have some attempt at a defemsive system.

Modern warfare is just the next generation of adaption that's been happening over 20 years at this point.
>>
>>65046971
>>65047050
The missiles in question were Kh-22s. They fly a semi-ballistic trajectory and come from above, no radar clutter to worry about. Terminal velocity of about 700 m/s or Mach 2. Not saying CIWS would've been perfect, but the missiles were not sea-skimming maneuvering targets, they were lumbering, big, missiles on a semi-ballistic trajectory.

not even close, F-15's radar is twice the size. the only question here is whether both planes' radars are more than capable enough in any combat scenario they'd find themselves in against each other since they're both non-stealthy 4th gens with state of the art electronics in them.

>>65049917
sure, they carry the same armanents and have their own advantages when maneuvering, with F-15 being better in BVR due to superior acceleration, top speed and climb rate while F-16 being a more nimble dogfighter, but not to a very large extent.

what F-15 is massively superior in is combat range, which is several times that of the F-16, especially carrying a substantial payload. this allows the planes to cover a greater area deeper into enemy territory for air superiority and strike missions.
>>
>>65049917
>>65049925
>>65050011
Real issue is that the latest gens of each are strike aircraft, AKA missile/bomb trucks. They will hold their own against anything not from the west but get bounced on by dedicated fighters or even F35.

Nope, they were thin white pointy parasitic worms and they were alive. IIRC I was cutting down the breast with a scalpel or other sharp disposable blade and I was very careful. Not saying it's not possible as that was long ago but I think I'd have noticed cutting the crop open. Maybe the pellet hit whatever they were in. Perhaps they were heartworms.

Is there a future for tanks? They are expensive, take a long time to produce, can only travel on land, requires 3-4 crew,

Anti-tank weapons are getting better and are pretty easy and cheap to mass produce. Easy to use too. Even drones are getting good at taking out tanks.

Is this a good gun for a SHTF situation?
1 reply omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>65050132
Oh boy, another thread about this thing.

Taking your question at face value, sure. It's a short barreled take-down AR. Either full auto or one of the civilian semi auto clones with an arm brace (wouldn't really be a huge performance difference between the two).

The folding/takedown elements of the design are specifically geared for being in a bag underneath an ejection seat. That means you can store the gun in a relatively compact/unobtrusive and non-obvious container which is certainly useful but it isn't particularly quick to deploy since you have to take a second to assemble it. A different design where the stock folds instead of the barrel or perhaps a bullpup could also be compact, but would have no loose parts that could get lost or be carried under a jacket ready to shoot.

In the best case scenario, the GAU-5 is still significantly bigger and harder to conceal than a pistol, which would be absolutely essential for trying to move through held/contested ground as a non combatant. Walking around with any rifle or visible weapons through territory held by armed militia or military forces instantly turns you into a bullet magnet. A rifle disassembled in a case is of little value unless you have opportunity to assemble it before using, which seems to be of dubious value. A rifle concealed under a jacket is not immediately obvious from a long distance, but would probably get you detained or shot on close inspection. If you are helping people hold territory (IE you are in the militia) then sacrificing performance for concealment is unnecessary.

For innawoods concealment is also not as important and 5.56mm/223 is a useful caliber for hunting, plus it's still a self loading rifle with generous magazine capacity so it's better for protection than a bolt action. But in this category weight is more important than concealment.

Overall, seems like it's neither fish nor fowl. Not useless, but sub optimal.
>>
>>65050216
Aren't all ARs takedown
>>
>>65050232
Yes, in that you can take the upper off the lower, but having a quick detach/attach barrel is a different story.

You could conceivably separate the upper/lower on an AR pistol for slightly more compact storage but it wouldn't be as compact overall as a GAU-5. I reckon something like a 7" BRN-180 with a folded stock could do it because it doesn't need a buffer tube but then they'd be adopting an entirely different weapon system that shares fewer parts with an M4/M16 than they would like.
>>
>>65050247
Running 5.56 from a 7" bbl seems like a bad idea
>>
>>65050257
Performance is going to suck but if you need ammunition compatibility with your existing inventory you are going to have to deal with it.

If that's not a factor, then 300 BLK plays nice with short barrels. That's the route I took with my AR pistol. I can theoretically CC it as well.
