Dank is a glow in the dark!

Cool dudes though. Real friendly. Sometimes you'll get into a conversation while waiting for a train or flight.

@Traps for Trump (Morepie) - That meme applies to everything ever written in Lisp

gotta learn to one hand shoot and load a rifle.

Very important.

G36?

UK buys those too?

Yup.

It used to be standard carry for armed police

up until 2014.

Not a bad rifle, but had its scandals

mmm melty handguard plastic

Mostly people are just sour at H&K for their "fuckoff" service

Well, yeah. Usually faults are user error.

The issue with G36 is not that bad. AR15 have plenty of melty handguards

*Laughs in COBOL*

It's just hurting HK that people try to do

Because they are unapologetic cunts to customers

A: They're German.
B: You can't just say "This has a bad slide/xyz" because they're *fucking german and their machining-manufacturing production is fucking ludicrous for tolerance.*

Neither G36, nor AR15, nor AK102 will get hot enough to melt their handguards
(and if they do the barrel is fucked anyway)

It's user error 90% of the time.

This reminds me of the Korth 1911

i'm guessing if ambient temperature is 40C it doesn't help either

If a barrel is hot enought to melt handguards you are annealing the barrel into a new shape

It is spent and needs to be replaced

Firearms work in any condition, it's up to the user to properly outfit the rifle for it.

If it's cold, extended trigger guards to accomodate gloves. Wraps to keep the barrel and bolt if applicable warm.

etc

that or it's shitty plastic, but it's HK so i seriously doubt it's a material quality issue

Wasn't the G36's barrel heating woes almost literally just a "this is how physics works you retards, we can only bend the laws not break them" kind of thing?

Even the polymer on the MP5 is practically metal.

It's so fucking STIFF

It's ridiculous.

@Sectator Pragmaticam Lex AR16 had melty handguards that would go goopy at the fixing nut with a rather light amount of firepower.
Army called that "fine" and just issued more handguards

Was never a scandal

Hell iirc even with the complaint the gun was still on the upper end of accuracy performance even with a hot barrel

(at least, compared to other rifles with similarly hot barrels)
