they just are built the same

i might also get a collapsible pistol brace for my gun

it would be hot asf

FALs are chambered in 30.06 right?

308

or am i losing it

ah ok

7.62 technically

its a European rifle

hmm

The only difference between the FAL mags and mine are a bump on the back

Bro so yall know how Halo spartans are huge asf, you'd think their assault rifles would shoot something similar to 50 cal because of how big they have too be, but the halo ar's shoot 7.62x51

technically, thats a feat in it of itself

7.62x51mm is almost the size of a Mosin Nagant round

the M14 was supposed to fire that in full auto

rip my arm

isnt 7.62x51 what AK's shoot? or is that 7.62x39?

but couldnt because the recoil would fuck up people's armed

im more of an AR guy so i dont know much ab AK's (im military family)

> isnt 7.62x51 what AK's shoot? or is that 7.62x39?
@mongo Aks use the 7.62x39mm vround which is an intermediate cartridge

ahhhh

as for the Halo rifle thing, my point still stands that its impressive that they were able to design and build a rifle capable of firing what is essentially a Mosin round with minimal recoil, although granted it is 500 years into the future

yeah

but the spartans are also spartans so i'd say recoil is irrelevant to them

yup

one thing im confused about is why they dont have some kind of pistol carbine for the Magnum yet

I wonder if Spartans have a different variant of the rifle while the marines use something else

it certainly wouldnt be hard

> I wonder if Spartans have a different variant of the rifle while the marines use something else
@Phoenix 3-1 nope, its the same

ah

I out of date on my halo lore

i mean spartans are what, 8 feet tall or something, they need bigger equipment so they probably do

judging by the scale of the spartans to normal humans though, i assume those Assault Rifles are a little bit smaller then a modern day M249 SAW

which is saying something

or maybe the buffer spring in the stocks is just a masterpiece

Spartans are a genetically engineered type of human from the Halo universe. Depending on the type of Spartan the height of a Spartan (fully armoured)is 7 feet tall(spartan 3)8 feet tall (spartan 2) and 6 to 7 feet tall (spartan 4), and have a reinforced endoskeleton.

wiki

plus the rifles have been described as sturdy, serving as a club as well as a rifle, so i assume their hefty as well

yeah i havent caught up on my halo lore in forever

I love Halo's fairly realistic take on firearms and the associated technology

yeah
