Someone tried it once on /k/ and reported a torn up arm

2017-04-17 19:22:18 UTC  

I don't see the point of piston AR without using a suppressor.

2017-04-17 19:22:21 UTC  

DI does get unwarranted hate but pistons are still better

2017-04-17 19:22:38 UTC  

As long as it's not in an AR

2017-04-17 19:22:45 UTC  

piston has better reliability with shit ammo

2017-04-17 19:22:46 UTC  

If you really want a shitty shotgun make a slam fire shotgun.

2017-04-17 19:22:47 UTC  

Piston ARs have a carrier tilt problem

2017-04-17 19:23:09 UTC  

I disagree my buddies and I use cheap shit ammo in our ARs constantly.

2017-04-17 19:23:11 UTC  

Eh, maybe, I've seen one where they replaced the plastic barrel with a drilled out wooden block and shot .22 but .22lr is very different from 12ga

2017-04-17 19:23:20 UTC  

The BCG ends up grinding itself and the buffer tube and it fucks shit up

2017-04-17 19:23:21 UTC  

i doubt after the happening i'll be able to buy top shelf from mutant traveling vendors

2017-04-17 19:24:00 UTC  

If you want a gun for SHTF scenarios you should learn to reload and assume you won't find ammo.

2017-04-17 19:24:00 UTC  

HK has their own weird semi-piston rifle that's essentially the HK416

2017-04-17 19:24:22 UTC  

>Can't find ammo

>Reloading on a press

2017-04-17 19:24:31 UTC  

Lel what

2017-04-17 19:24:38 UTC  

The HK416 can go through the ringer, IV8888 did a torture test and they couldn't kill it

2017-04-17 19:24:55 UTC  

I reload, mainly because I shoot competition and have special loads

2017-04-17 19:25:09 UTC  

Nice

2017-04-17 19:25:23 UTC  

Yes, why would you assume you're gonna find ammo for your gun? If it's a SHTF scenario you should assume what you have is all you've got.

2017-04-17 19:25:28 UTC  

But yeah you can buy 416s

2017-04-17 19:25:32 UTC  

Plus for milsurp it's cheaper to reload than buy, especially for 8mm Mauser

2017-04-17 19:25:48 UTC  

What good is reloading benches if you can't find boolets, brass, or primers

2017-04-17 19:25:54 UTC  

You shouldn't plan to find food after a bad situation, you should already have it, likewise with ammo.

2017-04-17 19:26:03 UTC  

Hopefully you'll have those stockpiled

2017-04-17 19:26:18 UTC  

Well you can cast bullets, you have brass, and you just stock up on primers

2017-04-17 19:26:21 UTC  

Well yeah but if you're mobile you're not carrying much more than 300 rounds of anything

2017-04-17 19:26:33 UTC  

And drag around a giang press with you?

2017-04-17 19:26:44 UTC  

It'd be easier to find ammo as widely sold as it is

2017-04-17 19:26:47 UTC  

You don't need the giant Dillon or Hornady

2017-04-17 19:26:50 UTC  

It's foolish to plan to move unless you have a destination in mind.

2017-04-17 19:26:52 UTC  

hello there traveler, can I interest you in some water purification products?

^

2017-04-17 19:27:18 UTC  

If you're simply traveling with no end game, you've already lost at surviving.

2017-04-17 19:27:27 UTC  

Reloading is greay but in SHTF of very limited value

2017-04-17 19:27:28 UTC  

They make ones that are single stage and you just change out the bits on it, can't remember the company but it's what I use to reload my deer rifles

2017-04-17 19:27:43 UTC  

Unless the entire goal was escape btfo'd area

2017-04-17 19:28:00 UTC  

Even in your S.T.A.L.K.E.R scenario reloading would be an extremely valuable skill.

2017-04-17 19:28:10 UTC  

yep, reloading sounds good in meme world, but irl it wont last forever

2017-04-17 19:28:22 UTC  

Sure, but carrying around the equipment would be a shit idea

2017-04-17 19:28:27 UTC  

can't just craft ammo components from rocks and dead cats like in vidya
