wtf were they smoking when they decided on this price?
>>65193761so sick of psa reproductions
>>65193761>wtf were they smoking when they decided on this price?Its called don't be a poor fag.
Let's be real those guys who treat guns like funko pops will 100% buy one
>>65193761this is exactly why they bought h&rso people dont think wow its a psa it should be cheap all psa makes is cheap garbage.
>>65193761It's super specshul FAL that the US thought about almost considered maybe adopting?!
>>65193761Other than price, what's wrong with it? I heard that H&R has fumbles when they ran out of parts kits and had to make their own receivers, but that was what, 10 years ago?
>>65193773>NOOOO, COMPANIES SHOULD NOT MAKE THINGS
>>65193802The price is what’s wrong with it. It’s literally just a DSA FAL (made by DSA in collaboration with H&R) with a stripper clip cut. DSA fals normally go for half the price they’re charging for it
>>65193812That's why I specified other than the price.
>>65193776t. 40cal USP owner
>>65193816I mean, DSA makes quality rifles so I doubt there’s anything internally wrong with it. Better than the James River M14s they were peddling before. Still highway robbery
>>65193824>DSA makes quality rifleslmao
So it's a repro? on what toolingFill us in on the details of what exactly this thing is
>>65193761why not just buy a new production m1 garand from CMP 1.3k less
>>65193870Why buy a mini 14 when you can just get an AR? Why fly a kite when you can just pop a pill?
>>65193806>NOOOO, SHIT COMPANIES SHOULD NOT MAKE SHIT THINGSYes.
>>65193870Apples to oranges. A better question would be “why not just buy DSA’s classic FAL and a Kalashnicarver wood handguard?” Since that would be essentially the same rifle for just $2K
>>65193761They make lose ill fitting new guns and their customers buy them and post 5 star reviews pictures of them in their gun safes telling us it fired 3 round flawlessly and hit the target at 25 yards
I would have bought one but I just got my Sig 542 back from the builder so I couldn't justify it.
>>65193781This is just a $1,600 DSA with a different roll mark
>>65193881Don't buy it then. Just stop bitching like a commie fag.
>>65193761Gee and I thought I was retarded for wanting a $2k DSA OSW for my next gun.
>>65193881I KNEEL.
>>65193806like how they made the stg44?
>>65193883why not buy a ptr-built ca3 for half of that
>>65193881Tiny man, with shoes unlaced.
>>65194063The FAL is frankly a better rifle than the G3.
>>65193761The reason: next to no competition, so you can do whatever the hell you want
>>65194076Said no person ever.
>>65193778That’s 80% of everyone here
>>65194267The G3 is more retard proof. The FAL is African conscript-tier reliable.
>>65193761America is finally great again
For that much they could have at least put the correct lower and stock on it.
>>65193773>Dude>I am gonna tell you what the market needs>Another AR-15 with a freefloat handguard>Another Glock 19 ripoff>Wtf why aren't you buying your 11th AR-15 and Glock 19 ripoff?!?!?!
>>65193842DSA is fine. ARS wasn't wrong though, their QC had some issues a few years ago. But those issues got ironed out before the pandemic even started.t. own two DSA FALs (one is on an Israeli parts kit) and have a friend that owns like 3 DSA FALs
>>65194063Because G3s fucking suck having owned one. FALs are just better to live with and use.>But the gas system is like impossible or somethingIf you can't figure out how to turn a dial maybe firearms aren't the right hobby for you.
>>65193761>Battle rifleFunko Pop for uncs.
>>65193773Then don't buy them? What's the problem?
FAL mags are scarce and expensive, contrary to what they were 20 years ago. Hell I can remember when G3 mags were $1-$3 each.
>>65195140FALs don't like sand, but for a civilian shooter this is unlikely to be a huge problem. I have had some trouble with Danish surplus too, pic rel >won't cycle properly>mmkay, turn up the gas by one notch>rips the rim off and jamsIn my friend's FN it wouldn't cycle at all
>>65195153It seems like everything but AR mags is going nuts. Someone broke into my garage and stole a backpack full of AK mags that cost me like $300, I've been looking at replacements and for the quantity & quality I'm looking at like 3x that much in current prices.I'm probably just going to buy a damn AR.
>>65193761I was going to get one, but they sold out in less than 8 minutes.
The best FALs were the IMBEL parts kit builds with the chrome-lined barrels. I remember when aimsurplus had them for $900, years ago of course.
>>65195162AoA has BFPU mags for like $7 or $9 each
>>65193773Love me PSA 5.56 Krink abortion, simple as.

>>65195133>what if Glock but not gay and constipatedThe RXM is one of the highest potential guns ever made, and by ruger of all people. Adding quality parts and designs to a market raises the floor and by consequence the entire estate of humanity and its quality of living.The echelon is another example. It’s completely out blown out others at its price point.>t will never invest in the world of poly pistols, since Glock and sigs never cut it, and now ruger will never add a g34 to its lineup, and Springfield will never make a echelon platform for its 10mm and 45acp line up.>tfw no echelon platypus-esque in 10mm and 45>nothing ever ever in 22tcmBullet points don’t matter but they hurt me (and probably only me) personally
>>6519537810mm echelon would be amazing, the 9mm grip is super thin so the 10mm would likely be a normal width (unlike the fatass g20). God forbid we have anything the manlets can't handle kek
>>65195137I want a DSA but they rarely have the model I want in stock (OSW SBR). Can you just place a backorder with them, or do I have to wait for them to post a batch for sale on their website? I’d like to buy direct from them so they can also do their trigger job on it.
>>65195209I need this and a psa fal so bad its unreal. Can you come fucking annex us already I've got guns I need to buy.
>>65195162Everything non AR and old went insane over the last 90 days. I've been looking at DW supermags and savage combination guns for the last two years and they've both jumped 50% since the war in Iran started.It makes no sense.
>>65195646Everything for them is made in turkey or SEA monkey land.No one else has produced anything for them since 2022.
>>65195627If you’re a leaf, move to Alberta. Chances are they’ll be a state before 2028
>>65195209no baffle strikes?
>>65195664I worked the patch for a bit. AB is like 60% brown fuck that.
>>65194277/k/ is a poorfag board for most who actually own guns. You’d be hard pressed to find someone on 4chan financially well off
>>65195209what makes it an "abortion"sperg shit like flat vs round rivets? or something actually noticeable
>>65195148You will never inherit a Gran Torino from a white guy. Don't be salty.
>>65195804>hard pressed to find someone on 4chan financially well offMeh, i can't brag, but I buy whatever I want. Within reason.
>>65195184Bought my Imbel kit for somewhere between $450 and $600 way back in the day, from Enterprise arms, which probably very few people here will remember.Was very lucky to get my kit before he became a felon and went to prison or whatever shook out of his kerfuffle.Built on a Coonan receiver, another company gone by the wayside.Fucking crazy I've been coming to /k/ for nearly two decades now. Terrifying shit anons.IT'LL HAPPEN TO YOU!

Didn't Trump loosen import restrictions and got rid of the Bush era "barrel ban"? Should be some good Steyr kits getting ready to be imported then if importers are smart and rushing to get at them. Remember when they were $200-400 a kit with barrel? Oooof!
>>65196243>Didn't Trump loosen import restrictions and got rid of the Bush era "barrel ban"?No. The ATF did loosen some restrictions, the only thing Trump's personally done is make sure that any potential benefits come with a hefty price tag. Truly 4d chess.
>>65196243STG-58 kits dried up like 20 years ago dude. DSA imported all the nicest ones back in the 90s and turned them into finished rifles and sold off the rest to builders.
>>65193761>$3,500 FALLmao, at least make a G3 if you're gonna try to fuck your buyers.
>/k seethes/laughs at price>sells out in literally ten minutesPSA laughs on the way to the bank, dying anime wankfest board shrieks into the void
>>65196728cool, good for them. If retards wanna get wallet raped good for them too.PSA sells literal junk, made by apes, their shit is dumb as fuck and I haven't bought anything from them in years now.They cater to the niggercattle masses that buy guns like funko pops instead of being serious with training, like fat neckbeard slightly chubby incels with glasses and retarded s o y faces.SC is a shit hole ran by redneck cousin fuckers.
>65196753You're gonna have to try harder than that.
>>65193773What if I told you these are actually being made by DSA in a collab with H&R?
>>65193864>on what toolingNIGGA WE EYEBALLIN THIS
>>65196753TACTICAL TRVKE
>>65195155>FALs don't like sandIsraeli fudd-lore. The Belgians tested the FAL thoroughly in desert environment and found out it worked just fine, so they did the sand cuts on the bolt-carrier to placate the lazy Pissraelis even tho it was entirely their retarded conscripts' fault for not properly oiling the gun like the manufacturer recomended.
>>65195209>AKOU approves of the PSA AKs>redditors and instagram tactifaggots hate themwhat exactly is the verdict with PSA AKs?
>>65196790Commonwealth rifles all have sand cut carriers and the last 2 T48 prototypes made by High Standard also had them.
>>65196790Look at all the jams Bloke suffered in Finnish Brutality when he brought an L1A1 that one timeI guess it has to do with how fine the sand in question is.
>>65196849Heard a bunch of similar stories from international volunteers using FALs in Ukraine. They all say the FALs are highly sensitive to foreign derbies like sand, mud, etc.
>>65196753It's ran by corrupt, sociopathic Greenville/Columbia/Charleston elites as it has been since the 17th century. They are different from rednecks. And they are worse.
>>65196782ok so itt posts say it's just a re-branded DSA FAL with different attachments/furniture? Is that all there is to it
>>65196881It's a bit of a precision instrument. Technically the 0 setting or whatever number it is on metrics (because for some reason the numbering is reversed on inch rifles) is adverse conditions I suppose, but that only helps so far with that clockwork bolt
>>65196954As far as I can tell, it's the geometry of the tilting bolt that's the main issue.Rotating bolts can sort-of "sweep" crap off the locking surfaces as they rotate into battery.That can't happen in these tilting bolt guns, instead crap just gets compressed between the bolt and the locking surface, causing severe jamming and failure to go into battery.One guy mentioned that he had his rifle unloaded and locked open, rested the rifle on its but with the muzzle against the wall of a trench, and a tiny amount of crap fell off the trench wall, went down the barrel directly into the locking surfaces. He didn't realize this had happened until later that day when he needed to use the rifle in a fight. Those few grains of crap were enough to cause immediate and catastrophic jams to the point where he had to switch to another weapon.
>>65196802Honestly, current GF3s and on up are fine for what they are. The krinks are good. Last I heard the 100 series are still a strong hit and miss because of shoddy QC, but that's widely true for even PSAs AR products too(I've had two of their barrels fail headspace testing).The reality is that PSA does have a good return policy and will even replace the firearm if it's defective. Ive personally never had an issue, but the RMA process does take a minute. You'll most likely eventually get an AK that will cycle just fine and not have any hangups, but small tolerance issues that are largely unseen until 1,000+ rounds can creep up on you and do bad things like excessively sheering the bolt or rails falling out of specifications and my favorite where shit like trunnions come loose because of shit rivets and turns your gun into a hand grenade.Point is that AKs are very dangerous if built improperly, so maybe just save an extra grand to get an Arsenal or maybe just buy a Zastava which are only slightly more expensive and have a much better QC rep.
>>65197203Unlike their ARs, PSA AK’s simply aren’t worth it for what they are. WASRs are only like 100 bucks more than GF3s and the WBP Jack regularly goes on sale for the same price as the GF5 if you’re looking for a more premium option
>>65195409I have never bought a complete rifle from DSA. I have only ever gotten receivers. The one FAL I own that I didn't build I got from Atlantic and had my card info stolen. Same think happened to me when I bought my piece of shit PTR-91 from them back in 2017.
>>65195148I find it amusing that because zoomers are so inherently stupid, their slang became the default trolling meta on this website and replaced the ‘lost redditor’ shtick that was common ten years ago.
>>65196802I love Bob Sled as much as the next guy, but he clearly has a vested interest in keeping the AK market viable in this country.>>65196849No offense but one rifle failing at some e-celeb wankfest started by a literal satan-worshipping cuckold isn’t really proof of anything one way or another.
>>65193778>everything I don't like is a funko pop>>65193821Good enough for Misato, good enough for me
>>65195627Sorry, we have enough jeets as it is and yours are apparently even lower quality.>>65195680None, which is amazing consideringA) PSAB) It's a .223 can which is generally risky to use on a 5.56 AK of any makeIt's really rough on the can though, so I don't do it often.>>65195997It's a 5.56 AK made in the USA, 'nuff said. Fun as shit though, and feels great to shoot. >>65196802Their 7.62 AKs had a rough start but everything from GF3 on is supposed to be quite solid, from what I hear. Their AK-100 AKs had a fucking disaster of a rollout that was so bad you still have people hesitant to buy any today. My "AK-101" (it's a pre-M '74 in .223, they didn't even try beyond giving it a smooth dust cover so I just made it a straight up AKS-74) has been great and so has the Krink, but the latter has had a solid rollout overall and I haven't heard many gripes about them.
>>65198246I have an SLR too and I'm pretty sure it would fail as wellI'm not about to shovel sand into it because parts are hard to replace
>>65198336>implying you need to take the people with the territory Nice try glowwog, you have to go back.
>gunsoomers fleeced like the gayming fags with the 1000 dollar 4 year old steam deckmakes sense. Fat neckbeards love hipster weird obscure stuff. >I MUST COLLECT THEM ALLScalpers, neckbeards, fat millennials. Disgusting.
>>65199025So many words just to say you're poor
>buying from poormetto stateenjoy your crooked ass barrels and overtorqued barrel nuts and busted ass receivers and rusty ass small parts
>>65193761Can it shoot sub moa
>>65199046I’m pretty sure Poorfag Sneed Armory is just the distributor. The rifles are made by DSA using the surviving 1950’s technical documents on license from H&R.
>>65199887anon you're replying to a noguns brownie, it won't see your reply and has long since moved on to other threads and boards to shit up
>>65195162If you don't own at least a PSA shit rod AR by now idk what to tell you man
>>65199049can you?
Because they know modern gun consumers are retarded
