Dat muzzle report, doe.
I'm willing to bet its the single chamber brake that makes that awesome "308 battle rifle" sound. Much deeper and awesome-r than the M16A2 in Fun-Switch-Mode.[/QUOTE]
The mag around 5:30-5:40 where the report starts to pick up a little bit, you can see the rounds igniting partially with the chamber open, too. Neat video.

Technically, if you look at Fascism/ Nationalism being the extreme end of conservatism, it starts to resemble Socialism and Communism.
"Though the Nazi party was ideologically opposed to communism, Adolf Hitler and other Nazi leaders frequently expressed recognition that only in Soviet Russia were their revolutionary and ideological counterparts were to be found.[9] Adolf Hitler admired Stalin and Stalinism,[10] on numerous occasions Hitler publicly praised Stalin and he positively reviewed Stalinism as seeking to purify the Communist Party of the Soviet Union of Jewish influences, noting the purging of Jewish communists such as Leon Trotsky, Grigory Zinoviev, Lev Kamenev, Karl Radek.[11] "
The Nazi party was after all, The National Socialist Party.
It is more appropriate to put Anarchy at one end and totalitarianism at the other with a "Republic" in the center, Democracy a little to the statist side, and Libertarians slightly to the Anarchistic side.

I follow the classical French-based system, since that's what the wings indicate. Liberalism (left) is for limited government, the belief in inalienable rights, and that the government serves solely to protect those rights and not to better themselves or their friends. Conservativism (right) believes in a more powerful government, establishing and maintaining the aristocracy, and the belief that divine right holds the powers of government, not the people.

Here is a comparison of the standard issue M4 and M4A1
M4 made it 535 rounds before the barrel burst.
M4A1 made it 911 before the gas tube burst.

The question is though, buy AK Pmags at $27 a piece or get smexy, collectable bakelite mags for $34 a piece...[/QUOTE]
You could just get the current AK PMAGs that are like $14 a piece and be happy with them like I did.
No you couldn't

Lol if it makes anyone feel better the foregrip is gone now, It was more of a joke. It did surprisingly work however.

Ugh, I wish AK74 bakelites weren't $50 a pop... I bought a lonely 1 that was quite minty looking.
I also need to take some Afghan war AKS-74 pics with it.

hold up if you put the foregrip on the suppressor there's no law saying you can't do that because the suppressor is registered as a different gun this is the greatest loophole in history
or at least it would be if you didn't have to pay a $200 stamp anyway and the suppressor wouldn't melt the grip
You might as well be shooting from the hip. I'd take an SBR over that anyway.

No, it would be an AOW, so that is 2 stamps, one for silencer, one for the aow gun.
Should just put an arm brace on it and a magpul AFG, no stamps required!

New phrase for this thread:
Guns or GTFO[/QUOTE]but a suppressor isn't a handgun and there's no rule saying you can't attach a vfg to something that isn't a handgun. the law treats the suppressor as a separate firearm
I fucking love guns. Inhereted a shitload from my grandpa. At this moment I have a .357 Colt Python, .380 Makarov, several old .22 rugers, and a Colt 1991. I hold all with great pride, never loaded but a clip always by their sides.
So how does one buy an FAL, is it like buying an AK with hundreds of manufacturers oooor do i just buy one?
FALs are a bit more difficult to find than AK variants; you could search up GunBroker or local forums, or buy new from DSA. Gun shows usually have a few floating around. Check out the FAL Files classifieds too, there's always some floating around on there.
DSA make really nice rifles. FALs built on Imbel receivers are also very nice, I have one myself. Century guns are hit and miss, inspect thoroughly before buying, and avoid Hesse rifles.
So one of these is fine? [url]https://www.atlanticfirearms.com/component/virtuemart/shipping-rifles/ds-arms-fal-sa58-rifle-21-premium-threaded-barrel-detail.html?Itemid=0[/url]
DSA's SA58 line is highly regarded, I wouldn't hesitate to buy one. Atlantic is also a top notch company to order from, so if there are any issues they'll take care of you.

Awesome, an FAL is definitely going to be my 2nd rifle I buy then. Just wanted a little input since all I know is AR's, AK's and handguns.
