do ar15s have a hard time in snow? I wouldnt know, b/c have never really beem north of PA <:KEK:726877368601411624>

2020-12-18 04:44:40 UTC  

Severe sub zero weather like Siberia and Southern Canada (AKA Wisconsin and Minnesota).

2020-12-18 04:44:55 UTC  

i mean direct inpingement has built in reliability issues

2020-12-18 04:47:33 UTC  

I saw a video where they tested AK vs. AR in Russian winter and after leaving an AR for I think 6 hours in the snow and wind, it froze to the point that they couldn't pull the charging handle. The AK survived, though.

At that point though, why are you leaving your rifle unattended in Siberia for 6 hours?

2020-12-18 04:49:07 UTC  

or just carrying it

2020-12-18 04:49:24 UTC  

sub-zero is typical where im at

2020-12-18 04:51:39 UTC  

I think if you did a press check every so often, even just carrying it wouldnt freeze it. I mean you really have to try to get a modern gun to freeze (but to be fair AK will probably survive even if you try).

I'm not saying that a SIG 550 isn't worth it, I'm just saying I'd go for something different. They are beautiful and you probably couldn't go wrong with one.

2020-12-18 04:53:34 UTC  

i honestly havnt done any snow shooting

2020-12-18 04:54:08 UTC  

It sucks... at least it did with the Army.

2020-12-18 04:54:36 UTC  

i mean ive got all my bases covered

2020-12-18 04:55:28 UTC  

AR carbine, AKM, G3 battle rifle, RPK

2020-12-18 04:58:51 UTC  

I have an AR, my Kar98k and my 3 pistols. My collection is small, but I have what I need. I figure if it all goes to crap, I can load up and move out quickly.

That being said, I do have a list of guns that I want to buy..... an extensive and expensive list.

2020-12-18 05:00:03 UTC  

i have a few pistols but im more rifle-y

2020-12-18 05:03:04 UTC  

As far as pistols go, I think I'm good with what I have (except I want a P226). My desires are for carbines like the LaRue OBR 5.56 and G36, battle rifles like the M1A, and precision rifles like the AWM and a 6.5 CM... and finally an M134.

2020-12-18 05:07:56 UTC  

the m134 is that port gun, right?

2020-12-18 05:08:06 UTC  

Is a 6.5 creed considered a short action?

2020-12-18 05:10:07 UTC  

i have a P226

2020-12-18 05:11:03 UTC  

M134 is the 6-barrel minigun.

2020-12-18 05:11:29 UTC  

I am jealous, what version do you have?

40S&W double/single

2020-12-18 05:13:17 UTC  

Nice. How many rounds does it hold?

2020-12-18 05:13:38 UTC  

12rd flush or 15 on the based mags

2020-12-18 05:19:17 UTC  

oh, my bad xD

2020-12-18 05:19:30 UTC  

anyone have experience with the Stribog sub gun?

2020-12-18 05:20:49 UTC  

The what now?

2020-12-18 05:21:30 UTC  

here, this is what I was somehow thinking of -_-

2020-12-18 05:21:47 UTC  

231, not 134

2020-12-18 05:23:48 UTC  

Weird

2020-12-18 05:24:36 UTC

2020-12-18 05:25:52 UTC

2020-12-18 06:42:31 UTC  

I've fired a friends, why?

2020-12-18 06:58:00 UTC  

I've got most of my bases covered too.....a few AR15 in various flavors, AR10 .308, a PSL, M1A, AKM, AR9 colt, several shotguns, lots of pistols.....a .50 cal

2020-12-18 06:59:00 UTC  

a couple WW2 surplus rifles

2020-12-18 07:15:52 UTC  

Where did you do ur snow shootn/training?....I assume at CWOC. Me I did MCMWTC in Bridgeport

2020-12-18 07:18:30 UTC  

how did you like it?
looking for a good, relatively cheap sub gun

2020-12-18 07:19:06 UTC  

I never did formal winter warfare training, just that it was winter in Basic and then several occasions with my current Reserve unit.

2020-12-18 07:31:25 UTC  

I get ya, its ruff during winter Basic, your right it definitely sucked. probably the most taxing training I've done..it lasted 2 weeks
