Whit wood trim not the cheap plastic
@NwSamsquatch Hunter no, get a PTR for that price
it's only $100-$200 more
you shouldnt pay more than like 650 or 700 for a c308
Never seen it before but I like that platform there's an actual pre ban kooch g3 for sale at a shop kn Oregon but they want 2.4k
Dude I'm not dropping that fucking much on a sight.
700 for sight
Goddamn
PTRs are made from original HK G3 tooling @NwSamsquatch Hunter
their quality is top notch
You get what you pay for. I mean you can still get a decent sight for $200-$300ish
I mean the reddots ive been reccomended are 150-180 on amazon
Iron sights we shot marksman on get good with what ya got and I see that , there isn't a ptr on arms list nearby atm but we will look thanks @Bender
does it have to be armslist
cause armslist is gonna be an overpriced shitshow rn
Vortex reddots
No I can buy anywhere I think and it is if no one will nudge on prices
Im poor. I'm spending 500 total for ammo and sights
this is the one i have
one thing i will tell you, and you will experience this whether you get a PTR or a century
is that it has a break-in period
not so much that the gun won't work as well during the break-in period, but the charging handle is ***extremely*** stiff
like, when i first got it i thought the gun was broken
i had to pull so hard on the charging handle i saw stars and bruised my hands after a range trip
i had to put about 500rds thru it before it wasnt that bad, i'm about 1200 in now and it's still a complete bitch to charge, just not quite as awful as it was
it's not anything to do with the brand, it's just the nature of roller-delayed blowback
hoooonestly i'd save for a FAL or get an AR10
G3s are cool but i wish i'd have gotten an AR10
I saw that on a 1000 round tourer test for the c308 and also thanks again for the link you and the Oregon unemployment just bought me a toy we have Mason hands so we can hang with it. Do you wish for the ar10 just for options on parts ? I want the rifle with closed off parts it rains a lot here and I'm prone to treat things like I don't love them
for the option on parts, aftermarket, accuracy, and ease of cleaning
PTRs are accurate but if you get good shit you can get an AR10 sub-moa
and let me tell you something about cleaning
G3s are a *whore* to clean
and because they're roller delayed blowback, you need to clean them every 500rds or so
i shoot 1 mag and the thing is completely filthy
The roller wears on those as well dint they? I'm more of a bladed weapons nerd than firearms
Hema and shit
@NwSamsquatch Hunter the rollers will last forever, dw about that. the gun just gets disgusting after a while
and you have to rotate the bolt, that's under spring pressure, to clean it... so
