If you were given free reign to design a new battle rifle what would you make?
>>64122781An L1A1 but for the CSA if it existed in the 1970s.
>>64122799This, but for the US Army.
>>64122799>>64122950No reason it couldn’t be a joint project with each other and/or Canada
>PSA will be doing a limited run of H&R branded M14s/M1AsDon't have a particularly good feeling about this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7m3tYjxK1k
>>64122957Americans are generous, they can watch.
>>64122781>design a new battle rifleTitanium Colt Monitor in .338-08.
>>64122754My money's tight due to a period of joblessness and I'm trying to sell my PTR + 20 mags for 1k and getting no bites. I think I want to give up on selling it bc I bought it recently and don't want to take a bigger loss on it even if I can't shoot it much any time soon. Plus it's still cool to fingerfuck.

>>64123026If they're smart it'll just be a bula with the h&r rollmark, but it is psa so we'll just have to wait and see
"battle rifles" don't exist but here's my contribution
>>64123026I wonder how it'll play out.
Yes hello frens. GN
>>64124161If this was like 4 months later closer to Christmas time i’d take you up on the offer but I too just got laid off and have to sell an AR before I can justify another gun purchase
>>6412716910-4. I am 10-10.>inb4 whaa?Learn your 10 codes.
Does anyone have a webm or a link to that one video of the FAL with 'she's a lady' playing? I forgot to save it when it was up
>>64128602Never mind I found it lol. here it is for anyone else who wants it
>>64128611braindead fat fingered enterhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1hHl3ZicUo&list=RDe1hHl3ZicUo&start_radio=1
>>64124161Good luck, I've been trying to save more money due to fear over a scenario like this. I'd rather have 10k in my savings account than a cool nvg setup especially since I already have a Gen 2+ PVS-14 I irresponsibly panic bought in 2021.
>>64128617>rather have 10k in my savings account than a cool nvg setupThis is the Way.
Cheapest BR, @ PSA.
>>64128942C308s aren't much more and arguably more reliable.
>>64128972I would never argue with you, anon. But some might prefer a cheaper, non-C308 option. And I predict, more accirate.
>>64123026Kinda shocked that PSA isn't doing Carry Handle AR10s despite having the H&R line. Funny that CMP is going to produce M1 garands and PSA is doing M14s this year.
>>64129487When I asked why they don't do retro AR10s I got told here because of legal issues or something.
>>64129688>I got toldWell, I guess they told you or something. I went through 'The Closet' today, at least the bottom half. Looks like I'm set on FAL mags and G3 vinyl pouches. Pouches covered in mold or anthrax or something.

Afternoon.
Ok, now good night.
Ok time out over. How have the threads been?
>>64136981Did you get banned? But, a little slow. OP is still a goat chad. I "feel" like the window for smurf Tag ammo has closed.
>>64137025Yes for a sfw "nsfw" post. Damn jannies cant tell an areola from a nipple
>>64137268>cant tell an areola from a nippleSeems to follow the theory that homosexuals were never breastfed.

BumpNeed to get put to the range and get this zeroed. Glass bedded, unitized gas system, and trigger job, so it should be pretty accurate with the right ammo. I've got about 400 rds of Hirtenberger from DSA left over, and a box of 168 gr match. I'll report back eventually, it'll probably be 2 months before I can get out to the range again.
>>64140630>probably be 2 months before I can get out to the range again.The pain. That is a very nice rifle
>>64124161I would be willing to buy that desu all the PTRs on gunbroker are over 1.3k
>>64141666I hope you get it, Devil Man!
Good afternoon.
>>64140630Nice wood
Good evening frens
>>64124180with the old Super Sniper variant specifically(God I miss JLD-Era PTR)

Good morning, /brg/.>>64146527I want a garand so badly.
Are we excited about the PSA M-14?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6LZhzehNDc
>>64148683>multi-year plan to eventually build m-14s and garandsSounds very promising. But I wonder who they got to help assemble them.
A battle rifle is a thing of beauty. The Queen of the Battlefield.
>>64141834I'll get one eventually thank you!
>>64150481>eventuallyThe longer you wait, the more they will cost and the less your money will be worth.
>>64151418Eventually doesn't mean forever, I've already seen a few on gunbroker. Just need to pay bills for this month and one is miiiiine (after shipping time)(after the 5 work day waiting period).
night frens
Good morning.
>>64148683Only if they make a solid classic one and then make their own EBR chassis variant.
Gonna get blasted and magdump at least 100 rounds this weekend for my homeboy Josh who died this week, RIP.
>>64158059TWU fuck sickos. o7
>Tfw I will never be able to justify throwing down the cash for my dream AR-10 for my ideal fighting rifle because F/A parts for an LMT fucking do not exist anywhereI want to die.
>>64158059Chrischan next?
>>64122754I sold 2.5 AR10's and only have a G3 left as far as BR's go.
Anyone know how to darken 17-4 stainless steel that isn't buying a $100 gallon jug of solution or heating until glowing and dunking in motor oil? I might have to cut/trim something in 17-4 that's been nitrided.
>>64122754>general tomfoolery
>>64160170He'll outlive us all, somehow>>64141389Thanks, it sucks finally having the cash for nice guns and ammo but not having any time to use it. Such is life>>64143243B-baka! I thought about getting a blackfeather chassis for it but desu I can't bring myself to replace the wood stock, it's just too pretty
>>64159203Will a super safety work?
Garand sling on FAL? Yeah or Nah. >>64158059>Dies exactly one month after OzzySo was it suicide?

>>64163605We shot a Vietnam vet[s ashes] across the yard last night
Poverty SG1 clone progress. Fucking claw mounts, the length of pull still isnt quite enough for proper eye relief. Using a 1.75-6x36 1960s schmidt & bender on an airsoft claw and the cheek riser is bondo.
>>64164941Scope has what i think is disintegrated weather sealing hanging a bit over the lens.Was gonna rebuild it but the damn parallax is stuck so i cant get the rear lens off. no way to grip it properly. Hitting the scope against a surface has got it off in a corner not too annoying so im leaving it.The glass is great but ive got a kahles of the era and it has none of these problems and the glass is even better. I forgive schmidt & bender. They were only formed 1957 so its one of their first designs.
>>64161016airbrush. unfortunately.
>>64137268>Yes for a sfw "nsfw" postNow I get banned for more homo bullshit!
I find the battle rifle the preferred instrument of the intellectually superior.
>>64167129A weapon for the high minded and the civilized gentleman
>>64122781AUG in .308 with an optional 28” barrel w/ bipodA .308 version of this.
>>64167275It is a shame no one has made one of these in .308 yet
>>64167292The real shame is that they’re rare as fuck to find in stock nowadays.
>>64161765Pattern 1907 sling seems more appropriate 2BH. Personally don't care for the M1 sling. The QD hook rattles a lot and overall it's just not that good as a shooting aid. Only thing it has going for it compared to the M1907 sling is weight.
Hello /brg/ what is your favorite type of optic to put on your rifles? Or are you an iron sights type of fella?
>>64169222Depends on the rifleFor ARs, I prefer an ACOGFor a BR, I like lpvos and mpvos, I'm actually considering a Leupold Mark 4 for my M14, it feels like a disservice to the capabilities of a br to not use something with magnification
>>64169222I like my TA11
20 in stock:
>>64170119>the jews did this
>>64169222TA33 for BRs
>>64169222If I'm going 1X its gonna be an Eotech
It's hot as heck out here. How are you guys doing?
>>64161142No, that’s just cope.
>>64170345broke 90 again here today. picked about 15 more pounds of choke cherries this afternoon. all in all pretty good day
Worth it? Love the G3, but I couldn't for the life of me get my last CETME Sporter feed from its mags
>>64171352just save a bit more and get a ptr
>>64171352Mine is pretty solid so far. There's no recoil lug which limits your optic mounting options but there is an aftermarket rail available now.
>>64170126Indubitably, my dear anon.
>>64171341Can you use these to make lick her?
>>64171352I've got about 2000 rounds through mine. No issues.Like the other anon said if you want to even remotely "modernize" it just get a ptr. No claw lug.
>>64171744sure can. most of this bunch will end up being wine
>>64171352Put a new recoil spring in it and also buy a feeler gauge from Harbor Freight for like $2. Both of those and it should be okay. I only mention this because someone did a review of the CA-3 and Century being Century decided not to replace the recoil springs. If the spring is too weak you will start to get roller dents in your receiver and there is no fix to that other than to rebuild the rifle on a new receiver.
>>64171748I'd say 1400 bucks of ammo through a 700 dollar gun is good enough
>>64122754What's the best cheap fully powered battle rifle? I'd prefer wood furniture if possible but I know that may be unrealistic. Additionally, are there any good shops that sell wood furniture for ARs? All the more classic looking ones are dead links and the only ones I can find look more modern.
>>64172529>good shops that sell wood furniture for ARs?Pretty sure blackgunswood.com shutdown. He did my AR10 wood on custom order.
>>64172912I just double checked and that's the site I was mentioning when I said dead links on good pics. Does seem to be gone.
>>64169222Vintage euro scopes. You can get great stuff for cheap but its always a project and an asspain to mount and usually fixed 4 power.
>>64173241>Does seem to be gone.>ironwood>blackriflewoodMore is the pity to lose another custom stock maker.
>>64174469>pity to lose anotherI'm just going to have to buy a matched pair in exhibition grade from rifle-stocks.com before it's too late. I have been putting this off for too long. I even spoke with "the man", years ago.
PTR continues to be the favorite of new shooters and noguns I take to the range. 5 for 5 so far >>64170345 I drank a frankly terrifying amount of water on my delivery route on Sunday. I think it got to at least 130 in the cargo.
Is there any wat this can fit a PTR91?
>>64174878So a G3 and CETME locking mechanism is different, the G3 is a plunger and the CETME locks onto a tab. On top of that the CETME C and CETME L have different size locking tabs and the CETME L is smaller so you can't directly connect a CETME L bayonet to a CETME C despite the muzzle device being compatible on all three rifles. There's a second issue (at least on my example, a Century built G3); The CETME's front plug has a cleaning kit and the cocking tube does not stick as far out meaning that the you'd have to remove the cleaning kit tube. There's another difference where the G3 has one locking pin for the front plug and the CETME has two holes. I think it's possible with modifications to a CETME front plug and your triple frame by 1) removing material from the lug so it fits in the bayonet 2) removing the cleaning kit tube3) adding a hole opposite of the existing retaining pin hole on your triple frame3a) You'll also want to egg the existing hole like on the G3 so you can depress one pin, rotate the pug and depress the 2nd pin for removal. t. has a CETME C, G3 and CETME L bayonet in front of me.
>>64174987>You'll also want to egg the existing hole like on the G3I mean on the CETME, the G3 only has one hole. I can take pics if you want but desu I'd just buy a G3 bayonet for another $50 and not bother https://www.apexgunparts.com/g3-bayonet-w-scabbard-12-groove-early-straight-handle-good.html
>>64174987Thanks. The unissued, NOS is just too attractive not to ask when my 2 HK91 examples from Royal Tiger look like factory seconds from a Guatemalan tent stake factory.
>>64175037I get it, I bought that same bayonet for an LC kit before I realized LCs don't have the locking lug kek
>be fren among frensWhat is the closest I can get to a Rhodesian FN on a burgers budget? Ive been stemming our on RLI stuff lately.
>>64175051DSA FAL if you want a new build.
>>64167275cmmg has their br3, but i don't know if it's any good
>>64174701I had a similar situation when I was moving in July during the heatwave in my area and was chugging water/gatorade and pissing what looked like gasoline. Keep drinking water even if you feel like you're gonna piss yourself guys its preferable to the alternative.
How's your week going /brg/?
>>64171556What makes ptr's better than c308's? Im ignorant on the matter
I’m sorry for shitting up your thread, /brg/, but I asked arg (who was talking about tranny penis) and looked on the internet (listicles that were nothing but ads) so I come to you all: Is there some place that offers a guide on converting a pre existing 556 AR to shoot 9x19? I know that I can use the lower and need a seperate upper and a magazine block, but is that it?
>>64178946The recent century G3 literally dont have the recoil lug thing on the rear sight base for a claw mount. extremely stupid.Id probably buy the century thing regardless and just cut the rear sight off and weld in a proper one. But i did build my g3 from a kit so
I will now drive 2 hrs and go shooting.
>>64178884Browser updated and my addons broke so haven't been online. Otherwise, good
>>64179004As long as you get a 9mm upper your g2g. You may have to change out the buffer weight but that all depends on your upper. As far as your magazine goes. also depends. Should just go fine in the mag well with an adapter.
>>64178884>Saturday: Noticed my car is leaking coolant (fuck here we go again)For context my truck has went through 4 fucking radiators in the year due to cracking.>Drop off my truck Wednesday, and fast forward today they look at it and saw my hose was going back >Cool.peg, at least it's not another radiator.>Pay the bill and drove home and left the car parked for an hour.>Pretty decent size puddle, and swearing ensure.>Now have drop my truck again tomorrow and ask wtf, and have to be late to work.Tempted to retire my Jeep Wrangler after this and buy something Jap instead at this fucking point. Sad thing is I had this truck for 10 years and haven't any major problems until now, but guess that what happens to 20 year old trucks. Any suggestions for compact SUVs with 4wd?

Are the Ca-3’s so beat to shit that you’d recommended just getting a new Ptr or are they not bad? I’ve heard mixed. PSA has the Ca-3 for 700$ right now. Can I not just replace the spring bolt and carrier group?
