I was told that FAL were actually light, which was bad because of the round they fired being one of the more powerful ones and therefore screwing recoil

Like he uses a 19th century Carolina flintlock style rifle through most of the film.

2021-02-02 19:18:49 UTC  

They weigh almost 10 pounds unloaded

2021-02-02 19:18:50 UTC  

i mean, just slap a good comp on and it should be good right?

2021-02-02 19:18:58 UTC  

Well damn

2021-02-02 19:19:07 UTC  

Depends on the varient

2021-02-02 19:19:08 UTC  

ten pounds <:KEK:795742276549607456>?

2021-02-02 19:19:13 UTC  

Yeah like I said heavy as shit

2021-02-02 19:19:13 UTC  

thats ridiculous

2021-02-02 19:19:23 UTC  

The C1A1 or "CFAL" was very light

2021-02-02 19:19:41 UTC  

probs off topic from y'all, but do you know if you can put a bayonet on a 10/22?

2021-02-02 19:19:58 UTC  

You can do anything with duck tape

2021-02-02 19:20:02 UTC  

Probably, is it recommended? Probably not

2021-02-02 19:20:36 UTC  

I didn't ask recommended... I asked possible... I want to stab while I shoot squirrels

2021-02-02 19:20:47 UTC  

@Bradyn 10 pounds was on the heavy end. The average one weighed around 8.5-9 pounds.

2021-02-02 19:20:59 UTC  

ye, just weld a bayonet lug on. you may have to also weld some sodder onto the front of the barrel and then file it down untill it fits the bayonet loop on bayonet.

2021-02-02 19:21:03 UTC  

Unloaded

2021-02-02 19:21:07 UTC  

Mhm

2021-02-02 19:21:18 UTC  

7 pounds for the lighter ones

2021-02-02 19:21:26 UTC  

Even down to 6.5

2021-02-02 19:21:32 UTC  

8.5 pounds is still heavy my guy

2021-02-02 19:21:42 UTC  

Still not as much as 10

2021-02-02 19:21:51 UTC  

Aren’t AKs 10 lbs when fully loaded?

2021-02-02 19:21:52 UTC  

fair point

2021-02-02 19:22:00 UTC  

ngl, when I build my ar, ima go for a sub 7 pound gun. (unloaded)

2021-02-02 19:22:02 UTC  

Which AK?

2021-02-02 19:22:03 UTC  

Yeah but the lighter you went the more reliability problems they had

2021-02-02 19:22:09 UTC  

No

2021-02-02 19:22:13 UTC  

That's a myth

2021-02-02 19:22:32 UTC  

It's all about who built it.

2021-02-02 19:22:48 UTC  

Never hear of a FAL that weighed under 8 pounds

2021-02-02 19:22:55 UTC  

What model?

2021-02-02 19:23:02 UTC  

The Standard Ak47

2021-02-02 19:23:13 UTC  

The milled AK or AKM?

2021-02-02 19:23:17 UTC  

Milled

2021-02-02 19:23:34 UTC  

Oh then yeah, it's somewhere around that weight

2021-02-02 19:23:50 UTC  

Idk imperial well when it comes to weight so I might be a bit off.

2021-02-02 19:24:14 UTC  

My AEG AK sits comfortably in between the loaded and unloaded weights at 7.8 lbs

2021-02-02 19:24:52 UTC  

very nice. AEGs also dont exactly eight exactly what a real steel do though xD

2021-02-02 19:25:00 UTC  

weigh*

2021-02-02 19:25:15 UTC  

I just messaged a guy I know who has one and he said it weighs 11 pounds unloaded but he has extra crap on it to.
