Good evening /brg/ I have some news about my Cetme.I got my flat and barrel so It's time for a press. Tried using a 3D printed cetme jig to bend it without a press and it started breaking due to the infill being not enough. will print a new one or make myself a new one from unistrut if someone is willing to link to a forum post or blog on how to fashion one from said material.
Man, I really need to start lifting again.

Does DSA produce steel FAL mags in batches? I seem to recall FAL Guy on youtube claiming that DSA was going to be more consistent with manufacturing them. Why are surplus FAL mags so rare compared to G3 mags anyway?
>>65148166
Reposting from last thread, I finally got a battle rifle. Next step is sling, mags, and ammo; will hold off on optics for now.
>someone bought the last SA58 OSW from DSA’s website before I got off workFML my birthday is on the 27th and I’ll probably have to wait months for them to build more of those. I really want the quadrail and not the new mlok faggotry.
MR762A4 to G28 progress
>>65148649Looking good.
>>65149305How accurate is that lmt?
>>65149490Extremely with the 20" 5R cut barrel. I typically feed it commercial 175gr SMK loads (FGMM) and it can extract everything that cartridge and I are capable of. I would suspect 1/2 MOA or better with precise hand loads and a top shelf shooter from what I've experienced.
Any ideas on my muzzle device issue from the last thread? So far:>Determined it isn't pinned.>Let it soak in hot water for over an hour and managed to get it to loosen one quarter turn.>Heat gun that could go up to 1200 degrees Fahrenheit had no effect, meaning it's probably not Loctite. My guess is that this guy used a hideous amount of Rocksett or it's cross-threaded. I am going to use a sacrificial pot and boil the barrel for four or five hours next week. If it still won't budge, I am going to guess I have to take it to a gunsmith or just cut my losses and find a replacement barrel since it'd probably work out to being similar in terms of cost as the gunsmiths down here are all fudds that charge a hilarious amount per hour on top of being slow as molasses.
>>65149929Soak in hot CLP
>>65149929if its not cross threaded you could always soak it in a solvent. Might have to let it sit for a few days. Will be a pain in the ass to rig though.
>>65149936Best way to do that without giving me super cancer?
>>65149499>1/2 MOA or betterNice, I use 175 fgm too. I have gotten groups like that but I can't do it consistently. Pic rel was 200 yards. I think I might need to get one of those stocks or get creative and rig a cheek rest together. How is the gas on that rifle?
>>65150031Not indoors. Do a propane stove outside with a water bath.
>>65150491Like most of LMT's monolithic rifles, violently gassed. Reliable as all get out, but definitely not tuned for pleasure.
>>65150666How heavy is your buffer? I'm using a standard a2 I think. What about your charging handle do you get a lot of gas from that? I was looking at the lmt one originally but at the last second I went against my gut.
>>65148239I've never heard of anyone bending a G3 flat without a shop press.
>>65148269Am back, went to gym and lifted yesterday, everything hurts.
>>65148382Congratulations.I'm seeing this and thinking back on what changes I made to mine.A trigger job or trigger replacement will help with hitting stuff further away. An extended charging handle is nice to have.Don't try to use the sling ring up front if you're putting a lot of tension in your sling to help you stabilize for a shot; the ring is attached to the triple front sight frame and the barrel. So when you put pressure on that ring, you're pulling your barrel slightly off target. Learn the system; how to check bolt gap with feeler gauges, and how to take the bolt group apart and put it back together with the rollers unlocked so that it fits back in the rifle. There is a trick to doing it.
>>65150782Whatever buffer they ship in the MWS rifles. Honestly no idea what they default to, but all of their barrel lengths and accompanying ports/gas systems are tuned to the same MWS buffer. No gas through the charging handle, but I don't suppress my rifle. When I say it's violently gassed, it's not so absurd to be a problem, it just definitely leans over-gassed relative to many systems that try to balance comfort and ease with reliability.
>>65150782>>65152276You spurred me to actually look into it:>The factory LMT .308 MWS uses a carbine-length H3 buffer (approx. 5.5 oz) paired with a specific extended receiver extension (buffer tube) that is roughly 3/4″ longer than a standard AR-15 tube. >The system is designed to use this "short" 3.25" AR-15 style H3 buffer rather than longer, specialized .308 buffers
>starting strength holy shit I haven’t seen this shit since 2010
>>65150666Anon. Are you in VA? Pretty sure I know that range well.
>>65148166I thought fancy SCARs weighed as much as ARsand that that was why they put that loud ass FSC brake on it that breaks ACOGs
>>65148169>$4200(((SIG))) is really fleecing the taxpayer
I love this shit so much bros
What sort of brain damage do you need to have to buy an AR-10 chambered in .300 WM for $6,000?
>>65154094If I wasnt about to buy a house id consider it for shits and giggles
>>65154094I like .300wm as a cartridge but I'm not sure I'd want one in an ar platform. It would be a lot of gun though. I think I'd like an ar platform in .300 win mag.
>>65148239Why do you have the English stock on your revolver?
>>65154135For tree pruning
>>65154094>buy an AR-10 chambered in .300 WM for $6,000?thats how much it costs to request the info, poorfag
>>65154204How much does it cost if they deny your request?
>>65154204It's 6k starting. I know that because a boomer at an LGS tried to shove one on me after he found out I was looking for FAL mags.
Thoughts on LMT Mars H piston? I have the opportunity to grab for cheaper than msrp. I have a 716 gen 1 piston i got when they came out and a 716i . My thoughts are replacing them with a higher quality gun
>>65150876>never heard of someone bending G3 flat w/o shop pressSeems like there's a good reason for that anon that i know now. Ill just print a new one with more infill.>>65154135There is no stock for a revolver in that picture. Its an akm barrel in the spot where my 1911 usually is. the only english guns i own are an unfinished no.1 mk3 and a webley mk V frame
>>65154094you want a NCR rifle that could kill a deathclaw?
>>65154424I think that is a .50 beo loaded pissin hot in a survivalist's rifle clone anon
>>65154422I assume you are using that one guy's guide. I am pretty sure he has 100% infill.
>>65154427shit, I totally forgot about the survivalist rifle
>>65154427kill a deathclaw at max draw distance/geck settings
>>65153881Yep. Occasionally make it out there with some folks. Mostly shoot on private land these days though. Definitely the best range in the region though.
>>65149929Rubber mallet for rockset. Surprisingly, this works really well.For lubricating the threads and unsticking things, use marvel mystery oil or kroil. You need a fluid that has good capillary properties. PB Blaster works too, but kroil and marvel smell good. For things like this I don't use firearm-specifc oils/solvents. If you need to get medieval, there's the option of cutting the muzzle device open with a dremel. Cut it long-ways like a hot dog being extra careful not to cut into the threads or barrel. Once enough material is removed then you can pry it carefully to loosen it.
>>65154074please replace the god awful stock century furniture on the L1A1
>>65155190Isn't that just standard L1A1 polymer furniture?
Opinion on 716i?
>>65155784Consensus is its an adequate rifle if you get it at msrp or bellow
>>65155784Buddy had one. Seemed reliable when I saw it in action. Didn't group extraordinarily well, but still better than your average cold war battle rifle. Think he was hovering 3'ish MOA at 100 with M80, which honestly is all that round is good for depending on who made it. He was able to beat up full size IPSC targets out to 800'ish yards with 168gr SMK.
>>65155217I'm pretty sure it is an OG bong "pebblegrain" furniture.
>>65148166I even saw this thumbnail. I will carry on about picrel later as we get closer. May be the best one yet.
>>65154094>What sort of brain damage do you need to have to buy an AR-10 chambered in .300 WM for $6,000?2x as much for one at $3500?>>65154118>I'd like an ar platform in .300 win mag.You do and I want you to have one, too.https://onlylongrange.com/bn36x3-long-range-300-win-mag-7mm-rem-mag/

If I were to drop big money on an LMT mars H... should I get DI or piston ?
>>65161069I like DI but that doesnt mean much. In theory Piston should be better in the majority of cases but eh. Its really just preference. I know that doesnt help. But youre going to get a variation of this answer from most anons. Unless your lucky enough for the really big balled anon that shoots a few thousand rounds every month. He can give you a more technical answer
>>65161069>DI or pistonPeople will argue about this forever, but realistically you will not be operating in conditions that will make piston preferable to DI. You are adding more weight with a piston, I would only recommend getting piston if you plan on shooting it suppressed a majority of the time.
Nta, but I always appriciate sound advice.
mornin
>>65161069Do you prefer a heavier gun or a FWTANG every time you shoot it?
>>65162091I mean I'd likely set it up as a supported shooter with a bipod and mk 5. So it'd always be on the ground or supported in some way. The main concern would be for a can. I'd likely always have it supressed and my can isnt flow through

>>65164436Good morning
>>65149499That LMT is very nice. I see you spared no expense.
>>65164965They were on sale for something ridiculous like $1200 he got it for a steal. It's okay though, I'm not still jealous. Not one bit.
>>65165714They were South African over runs and I too am NOT jelly I passed over the deal at the time.
>>65165829I had the money but I spent it on something retarded right before I heard about it, can't remember what just that it was stupid and I would have rather had the lmt.
>>65157846Even MORE BADDASS than the WC-18 is this WC-26 Carry-All. Total fuck wagon! Not the the amball lamps isn't. But it does need a supercharger on that hemi. I got passed by a '32 with a hemi last Sunday. And when I passed it up again, saw the blower tucked in. It's a trend.
>>65165971https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1941-dodge-wc-26/>Custom axle housings were fabricated, and the chassis was updated with King remote-reservoir adjustable coilovers, a three-link front suspension, a triangulated four-link setupNice.
>>65164965Every once in a while you just have to full send. Accurate enough with the 5R barrel that I avoided putting together a separate precision rifle. Unfortunately it did not stop me from jumping on a JUSTASGOOD-10 for the hell of it.>>65165714Going from memory, I want to say it was closer to $1,800. Still a great deal. >>65165829South American, I believe.
>>65167368Look it been shot alot. And its old now. What if I gave you tree fiddy for it and chick-fil-a coupon for a free chocolate malt?

>>65167796>Reptilia AUSMe likey.
>>65167600Very nice, brother.
...LMTs were available for $1800?Fuck my chungus life.
>>65168406Regular MWS was something like $2200-$2400 at the time. They had an overrun of some contract beaner green MWS with 16" CL barrel for a good discount. Supposedly only about 60 of them were available from what I read. They sold out quickly, I had lucky timing.
>>65167368They were 1800 when they came out. I have the same one as you. Never shot it much, I mainly picked it up because at the time I had a bunch of other 308s and no ar10 and when I saw someone post the deal on /k/ I went ahead and bought it as a birthday gift to myself. I think back then lmt 308s were going for 2400-2600 so it was too good to pass up
>>65166079Taking bets on selling price. I estimate >$48k. This one will o high, and/or *reserve not met". Really tickles my peepee.
>>65168500>>$48kWhich even to me is still a good deal. I drove be the Lincoln lot today and Navagators are $48k+, easy.

>>65148166People who have built a FAL, how much do you use your receiver wrench after you finished getting your rifle put together? Should I buy a wrench, or should I just attempt to rent one from someone who's not currently using theirs?
>>65170043>How much do you use a tool that was specifically built for building FALsIf you can rent or borrow do so. If not just buy the tools, they aren't crazy expensive.
>>65170043Ideally you'll only use one once. Maybe another time if you get a new barrel you want to install. Its been about 9 years since I bought mine, its in a box somewhere in my garage. Anyway, aren't they only like 135 bucks for a receiver wrench and barrel vice?
>>65170759Not him but what else do you need for a build? I've built plenty of ars but I'm assuming this is more involved?
>>65166079As usual, 4 days to go and way undervalued at $8.6k! Just wait for the last minute feeding frenzy!
>>65170798>else do you need for a build?A 1941 Dodge WC-26 4x4.
>>65170798Besides the barrel vice and receiver wrench, you'll need a torque wrench, a bunch of pin gauges and go/no-go and a field gauge to determine your headspace, you'll likely need to order a locking shoulder to fit the headspace (unless the one that came with your parts kit happens to be the right size), timing rods is nice to have for getting the barrel timing right (though I always just eyeballed it), having a press can be useful for inserting your locking shoulder, though not necessary, and a bench vise is needed too. I think that covers it all.
>>65157846$5.8k, abt an hr left..
>>65172071>SOLD =$6KI feel this undersold by a couple. Recommend taking the $6k you just saved and putting it into the SpaceX IPO.
hello BRG. I can TIG reasonably, not pretty but will hold, but I don't have any presses and I wanna build a CETME/G3. How do people feel about these being sold by Atlantic and do they actually come back in stock?
Must not spend money. Need to buy house.
>>65170759The only one I'm seeing in stock is $150 at Brownells, which isn't too expensive, but every dollar I save is another round of .308 to feed the finished rifle. Plus I hear the Brownells one is worse than the FALfiles ones, problem is the FALfiles thread has been dead for 3 years so I have no idea if that guy still sells them or not. If an anon in this thread is willing to sell one or let me rent/borrow one I'll drop a burner email once my parts kit and receiver come in.
>>65173930Buy gun now, wait for AI bubble to birst then buy a house when the banks have to liquidate assets, such as all the houses they bought up.
>>65168424If you ever find yourself looking to put together a .308 or 6.5 mememoor precision rifle, you could definitely use that MWS as a platform and grab one of their 5R barrels. I expected a relatively accurate package with the 20" 5R barrel given my previous experience with their 5R barrel in a 5.56 MRP, but this thing still managed to surprise. Sub-MOA capable all day and if you need to swap back and forth between barrels, the return to zero after a barrel change has been within a couple tenths of a mil the couple times I've done it with the MWS.Alternatively, if you ever want to ditch it there were dudes paying $6,000-$8,000 for that thing since it was a (((rare))) and (((limited))) release. No idea if there are still people willing to go full retard or not.
>>65174322That's cool brownells is selling a set of tools. I'd just message that guy on FAL files see what's up. I'd lend you mine except I have no idea where it is and I'm pretty sure I'm just straight up missing the bolts.
>>65173930>must buy rifle to protect future houseIt is a conundrum.
>>65173930Correct. No more pissing money away with zero equity. Last time I moved a couple years ago, after selling the house I made money living there accounting for mortgage and escrow payments.
Bought a second piss cheap suppressor. God bless America.
>>65175930Nice.
>>65175930Nice, I'm still using a Dead Air Primal for .308. Its a pig but it works well for magdumps and stuff, I've considered a lighter one for light use.

>>65175972The tax stamp has been $0 on suppressors for almost a year now, man. Most you'll pay is whatever your FFL takes for NFA transfers.
>>65176014Yes, but you still need to transfer it from the manufacturer to your FFL, right?
>>65176018...no? What do you think Form 2s are for? I'm not making a suppressor my man. I am buying one from an FFL holder, filling out a Form 4, "paying" a $0 tax stamp, and giving the FFL holder their pound of flesh.

"Brand new" Battle Rifle to buy! The Winchester SX AR! But you say...>but anon, it looks just like the FN FNARWhelp, remember when Winchester pulled all the Black Talon COP KILLER bullets, rebranded, and released as the SXT loads? Could that have been the "Same Exact Thing"? And when Winchester tried to revive flailing fud sales with a "minute gun" they just put a new Mossy Oak dress on the FNAR and called it the SAME EXACT AR? Fukin' brilliant, Winchester SXAR.
>>65191234I wish they would modernize the receiver instead of trying to modernize the furniture.
Hey friends, refresh my memory on why POF Rogue 308s suck? Was it the shitty 1:8 barrel twist making it a 3moa gun with common ammo or was it something else? I found a deal on one with a CF 18.5in barrel for 1100 brand new. Only shitty part about this particular model is everyone is listing the specs slightly different (as far as non-handguard furniture and small parts) and its unclear what the actual twist is and gas length since every site and listing shows a tiny stock photo that are inconsistent on every site and listing. If I am remembering right that the POFs problem was the barrel, then getting one with a CF barrel not made by POF should be okay, and fingers crossed its a 1:10 - 1:12 instead of retarded 1:8 since majority of CF barrel makers dont do retarded twist rates. Thoughts? There is maybe one post on the entire internet from the various gun boards that even mention this model exists, and it doesnt really say anything.
>>65191575As someone who owns the FNAR: they didn't even modernize the furniture. It's the same exact furniture as the FNAR. What a let down. But I guess if you want an FNAR but don't want to pay $250 for 20 round mags, there is your answer.

>>65195346The store in question isn't known for being cheap, but they've had some cool shit for decent prices in the past. They're still selling old M16A1s (neutered to semi-auto only) for two grand, and they had a batch of Bongistan surplus L1A1 FAL rifles complete with the original documentation selling for around the same price, so not everything they have is overpriced.They're also offering Italian BM-59s for around $1,900, with the folding stock paratrooper versions being a bit pricier.If I recall correctly they also had surplus M1 carbines listed at around $900. To me those carbines seemed genuinely cheap, but I have no idea what condition they were in as the only picture on the website was a generic archive photo.

I expected it to be either a DSA Cold Warrior ($1600) with an H&R rollmark and some turkish walnut furniture for like $1800-2000, or the $2500 T48 Style FALO DSA already makes with an H&R rollmark and that $17 T48 trigger guard instead of a bipod. $3300 is fucking ludicrous.
>>65195366What store?
>>65195227>why is everything cool so expensive?Something like 40-50% of the burgerbux in existence were created during the 2020-2022 timeframe. Everything cool has always been expensive but that's why everything is suddenly extremely expensive.
>>65195483So what you're saying is that McDonald vouchers for literal hamburgers are a worth more and have greater stability than the BurgerBux™ printed by the Federal Reserve, because the McDonald's vouchers are backed by physical products with an intrinsic and objective value, while federal reserve notes are backed by fuck-all?
why are there two /brg/ threads
>>65195528Assert dominance over the /ak/ niggers
Am I retarded for wanting a 16" 7.62 AR but leave it with iron sights ?
>>65195548Yes. Unless the "7.62" you're talking about is x39 or x45 (.300blackguy).
>>65195552I mean I already have two others with optics. Why not just do another with a flashlight and good irons or something?
Is a SR-25 carry handle worth anything?
>>65195528We rate 2.
>>65195552>Unless the "7.62" you're talking about>Browning
>>65195599At least the going rate.
>>65195560>Why notBecause it's a pointless and stupid waste of money. It's the firearms equivalent of shoehorning a supercharged 1200hp big block V8 into a Corolla and trying to use it as a weekday commuter car in congested city traffic.If you're only going to use it as a range toy, and you're fine with burning cash on a rifle that has no real practical application of any kind, and gets mogged in every measurable regard by a literal first gen AK-47, then go for it.If that's not the case, then don't.A .308 with a barrel that short has no meaningful performance advantage over an intermediate caliber rifle, just more muzzle blast, more flash, more recoil, and it shoots more expensive ammo loaded with superfluous powder that only gets wasted and combusts outside of the barrel.
>>65195528wtf there's another one?
>>65195707>>65195528holy shit there are. How did i not notice this for over 2 weeks
>>65195707>>65195754There is a real one and there is a good one. Which makes both good, and that makes both real. Therefore, both are real good. Simple as.
>>65195663Melty
>>65195994Called it. 2nd for meltie.
>>65195994>"I'm thinking of sticking a firecracker down my piss-pipe and lighting it off, seems like a good idea, right?">"WTF!?! NO!! That's a terrible idea! Don't do that, you'll blow you dick off, retard.">"Hah, Melty! Get owned, nerd! *lights fuse*
We dont tolerate anti iron propaganda on /brg/
>>65196010Upon visiting this thread from the front page I have evaluated your posts. As the original poster was talking about a 16" 7.62x51mm build and not in fact sticking a 1200hp motor in a corolla, or sticking a firecracker in his pee hole, I am forced to agree with the other poster. Your posts are the next best thing to hysterics and do in fact appear to qualify as a "melty".Good day.
>>65196010I don't think he should for other reasons but just chill, a lot of people have to get a phase out of their system with ar10s and then after that they do sensible things.
>>65196010Sticking a firecracker in your dickhole is not the same as having a gun with ironsights. Why are you so upset over someone else's guns?
>>65196129Outright asked if his idea was dumb, I told him the truth.It's not about the irons. It's about the chode barrel.That's what makes it full-blown retarded.A 16" .308 is on the same wrung on the retardation ladder as an 10" 5.56.In a civilian context where a shooter is free to select cartridges and barrel lengths as they please, It's objectively pointless and retarded to an indefensible degree.The only conceivable scenario where such a rifle makes any kind of sense is a scenario where .308 is the only ammo available due to convoluted logistical reasons and an organization has to make the best of a bad situation because they have no other choice.Even then it wouldn't be a good rifle or a good idea, it would be a nigger-rigged bodge job.As previously mentioned, it's just a plain bad idea and in every measurable aspect it would get mogged by first-gen AKs, MP/STG-44s, and even Volkssturmgewehrs.That's how fucking bad of a rifle it would be.
>>65196176You are retarded lol
>>65196176>objectively pointless and retarded to an indefensible degree.>the postDude, that's, just, like, your opinion, man.
>>65196176This is about barrel length? 16" is fine. I went 18 and might go 20 next time but 16 is fine.
>>65196129>Sticking a firecracker in your dickhole is not the same as having a gun with ironsights.Imagine a world where it is, though... imagine. https://youtu.be/YkgkThdzX-8?si=ylo8q0pLLmnrmwcy
>>65196176>the most popular barrel for just about any current AR10 manufacturer is absolute worthless dogshit to the max and gets mogged by any smaller caliber Bruh go take your meds. What are suggesting then a fucking 30 inch barrel? The differences between 16, 18, and even 20 aren't that significant
>>65196244>a fucking 30 inch barrelImagine...
>gets asked about iron sights >melts down about barrel length Fucking /arg/ tourists
>>65196258/arg/ meta is 13" for .308.
>>65196264>13" meta for 308they really are a group of homosexuals arent they
So I have an extra vudu 1-10 lying around. Is it worth putting that on a 6.5 20s? its seems a little underpowered for that
>>65196334I think 1-10 is good enough for most practical stuff. The kicker would be the objective lens size. I'm also eyebox picky
>>65196334Underpowered compared to no scope?
>>65196334Sell it and get an mpvo instead
>>65196334I would want way more especially for 6.5.
Aren't scars notorious for smashing optics ?
>>65196379yes but its not as big as issue as some make it out to be. As long as you have a decent rugged optic youre fine.
>>65196379Yes, but it's a lot less of a problem now. It can still happen though, but optics have just gotten tougher in general so that's kinda nullified the problem. I still remember (and wish I had the YouTube video) from 2009-2010, right when the SCAR came out some /k/ommando posted his first time at the range with his SCAR-17 and it completely cracked his ACOG's glass in just a couple of mags.
>>65196546Wild that special forces dudes loved that gun and they exclusively ran acogs, elcans, and razors
>>65195227>Exceedingly rare collectible with plenty of demand>why is it so expensive?Same reason folks pay $15k-$25k for the full M110 deployment kit. Desireable stuff with limited quantities are going to demand a premium price.
>>65196176This is why we don't sit in generals with obnoxious tripfags huffing their own farts constantly folks.
>>65195663Do a food analogy next!
>>65197399Eating a 12 oz steak is absolutey retarded beyond any reason when a 14 or 16 oz steak exists. Your 12 oz steak offers nothing substantial and will get mogged by any double cheeseburger or large burrito. Why anyone would even consider a 12oz steak is absurd beyond measure. I can't offer any stats or data regarding nutritional value or weight ratios to back up my claim but just trust me bro. You're dumb for wanting a 12 oz steak, even if you aren't that hungry or have enough sides to fill you up.
>>65148166Thinking about picking up an FAL I saw at a local fun store. Their both DSA paras ones 18' the other 16'. I've been wanting to get a proper battle rifle for awhile but I'm not 100% sure what im getting into as the only thing I have to compare it to would be my Garand. So I guess compared to that how much is this rifle gonna kick my ass, and is their anything I need to know about ammo preferences, and magazines I also saw the pastebin said their hit and miss but videos and reviews ive seen online said their fine so im not really sure what to think.
>>65197810I had an 18" DSA. Super overgassed. But a fun gun. I ultimately sold it and went with AR platform instead due to easier use with optics and adjustable piston
>>65197839how well did it run? did it take everything you fed it?
>>65195548Yes. It should be 11”, no longer than 14”. How are you going to properly immunize yourself to flash bangs otherwise?
This thread might be less aids than arg. Anyone here shoot a Springfield saint victor .308? With Aero being kill, plain-ass forged AR-10s are getting rare. My second opinion is a DD5 16.”
>>65197839Your DSA FAL should have had an adjustable gas block, often times they get set high from the factory to ensure they cycle.
>>65197884It was fine. It was honestly just a phase. I was in flgiht school and had money to burn and my roommates all got a different variant DSA. I didnt like it as much as my M1A and then for practical use, I chose the AR10.
>>65197810>>65197884>>65198135DSA has a bunch of options as I'm sure you've seen. I do like the 18" the best and I think the picatinny dust cover is good to have, even if you don't use it. It was a pretty gun. Mags were hard to find and expensive.
>>65198146I heard about the mags being an issue, doesnt DSA make mags for the gun? If those are a problem what would you recommend? but yeah I was down the road planning to get picatinny dust cover and rails for it.
>>65197476imo the steak should fill you up on it's own, the sides are extra credit.
>>65198146>Mags were hard to find and expensive.where do you find magazines for these things? only place I've seen them is way over priced on gun broker.
>>65197399Nowme, now me!>The Baseline: "Let's say this Twinkie represents the normal amount of psychokinetic energy in the New York area.>"The Surge: "According to this morning's sample, it would be a Twinkie... thirty-five feet long, weighing approximately six hundred pounds.">The Reaction: After Ray briefly chokes on a cigarette, Winston perfectly summarizes it by saying, "That's a big Twinkie."Howazat? Can I show you my really big twinkie now?
>>65198593>Fat mentality
>>65198853I found them way over priced on gunbroker
>>65199592>not rejecting carbs
>>65199592>Carb mentality
>>65198448I simply don't remember. I want to say that it came with a polymer mag and I wanted metal? DSA does make some metal makes. Me being an AK guy, I wanted the the real thing when it comes to mags so I paid the premium for surplus. I am not an FAL expert so you really shouldn't keep asking me what I recommend. I'm just a dude who bought a DSA once
>>65199601>>65199604Reject sides so you can have more dessert
>>65199611I don't want be the one to have to tell you this but go look up what sugar is.
>>65199611Blew away my lady coworkers when I skipped the crab and steak buffet and went straight for the dessert cart 4x. Fasted next 2 days.
>>65199623I don't wanna be the one to tell you this but look up what a gym is
>>65199627I'm not the one eating extra dessert. You don't get to talk about gyms fatty.
>>65199629>go to gym>lift heavy>get to eat more dessert Simple
>Just work off the caloriesDYEL mentality
>>65199633You don't do that. Just the dessert part. Lifting burns fuck all calories and you're replacing protein with sugar. You're not getting out of this one fatass. Go eat another donut and pretend to be a powerlifter.
