@RoflTank I have two rifles with RAGE comps, they work well. Tuning takes some time tho.
If you get one, be sure to loctite the set screws in the front collar
Oooohhhhh yes, but once you tune it right it's a great comp. Fun fact, it's either modeled after or parallel devolped along the lines of a Rhodesian FAL comp
It was an ingenious bit of engineering design to completely eliminate the recoil of an FAL firing on full auto
Aren’t those both kinda expensive and notoriously unreliable?
are there more roller locked systems
why tho 😦
they're cool
No and no
better than the TT and only like 500 or so for pretty good condition if I remember right
I’ve heard they’re finicky from other folks, at least moreso than a tokarev
why is roller delayed used more than roller locked
It was maybe 200 and works like a charm
Oh
Ok
no theyre not
oh wait
You have to buy good ammo for the vz52
Russian surplus will work and older spec works
Modern stuff is lowered pressure and won't cycle reliably
roller locking uses the rollers to actually lock the bolt into place, whereas Roller delayed uses similar rollers to just delay the blowback, but doesnt itself lock the mechanism
yes i know
but
why is delayed use so much more often then locked
Toggle lock coolest mechanism
Flapper lock close second
Straight blowback gang
because other locking systems are generally good enough, and cheaper/more easy to maintain/use
120mm blowback gang
also uh, this is me being dumb but
The difference between roller lock and roller delay is not the interface of the bolt but the action of the entire barrel
things like a gau-6 dont need locking cause the barres are fixed so they can turn adn the pressure is safe by the time it does a revolution?
On a locking gun, the bolt and barrel recoil as one unit
On a delayed gun the barrel is fixed
oh so thats how they are functionally different
thank you
The bolts could actually be identical
