I think Zastava has been making forged parts since they saw how shitty NPAPS were.

What rifle is that

Why

2019-02-08 12:00:39 UTC  

bcuz the memes bro

2019-02-08 12:14:14 UTC  

meme-o-tech

2019-02-08 12:14:36 UTC  

and now that memery has been satisfied i'm putting each one onto their intended purposes

2019-02-08 13:01:05 UTC  

@blyat which barrel length did you go with for the Wolf A1 upper?

2019-02-08 13:05:05 UTC  

16

2019-02-08 13:09:07 UTC  

I’ve been eyeballing those for a while

2019-02-08 13:09:46 UTC  

But it doesn’t really do anything better than any of my other uppers

2019-02-08 13:21:22 UTC  

i like it because it runs a lil cooler than DI
and i've always been impartial to pistons because reliability and personal experience

2019-02-08 13:29:08 UTC  

I dunno, am about to hit about 10k rounds through my main competition AR and can’t say I’ve ever had any reliability issues.

2019-02-08 13:30:07 UTC  

And I’m not sure what you mean about running cooler. You mean the hand guard?

2019-02-08 13:30:10 UTC  

i mean let's be real, both systems are super reliable

2019-02-08 13:31:27 UTC  

There’s doing something to be different or because it’s mechanically or historically interesting. That’s the main reason personally

2019-02-08 13:31:50 UTC  

But I’m always curious when people tout the reliability difference between piston and DI AR’s

2019-02-08 13:31:55 UTC  

also because my experience with the 91 upper was at home
it weathers the tropical shitweather and the horrible duststorms and just straight up sand really, really well

2019-02-08 13:32:30 UTC  

91 upper? You Taiwanese?

2019-02-08 13:32:32 UTC  

so when i say reliability i'm not saying that the piston > di
just that the piston is super goddamn reliable and since i've experienced it firsthand (handled it in far shittier conditions than i handled a DI), i stick with it

2019-02-08 13:32:34 UTC  

yeah

2019-02-08 13:32:41 UTC  

That makes sense

2019-02-08 13:32:45 UTC  

mhm

2019-02-08 13:33:00 UTC  

like, i haven't taken a DI rifle out into the woods or sand and mucked around yet but i'm sure it'll do fine

2019-02-08 13:33:29 UTC  

i just like making decisions on tools based on firsthand experience, and since I haven't tested DI yet i'm sticking to what i know is true
like some kind of gun-toting caveman

2019-02-08 13:34:01 UTC  

It’s like I find the Daewoo guns interesting

2019-02-08 13:34:55 UTC  

But I never bought one because it’s not quite interesting enough to warrant the cost and it doesn’t really do anything better.

2019-02-08 13:35:05 UTC  

It’s got the cool factor

2019-02-08 13:35:27 UTC  

daewoos are expensive

2019-02-08 13:36:08 UTC  

it's a long-stroke piston tho
kinda like the sig 550
kinda like an ak

2019-02-08 13:36:13 UTC  

Yup

2019-02-08 13:37:07 UTC  

it runs like a tank

2019-02-08 13:37:26 UTC  

weighs like one too

2019-02-08 13:37:35 UTC  

7.2 lbs

2019-02-08 13:38:33 UTC  

i like piston rifles because of experience and in the end i just think they're cool

2019-02-08 13:38:45 UTC  

like with the moving parts n shit

2019-02-08 13:38:51 UTC  

steampunk-ish

2019-02-08 13:43:24 UTC  

the handguard coupled with iron sights turns it into a classic kinda feeling

2019-02-08 16:04:30 UTC  

Fellas, ordered my first modern AR

2019-02-08 16:05:15 UTC  

Got the FN M16A4 clone upper with the aero precision M16A4 clone lower. Total cost of about 860
