I don't think I've ever seen Hickok45 move that fast.
[QUOTE=Ricool06;49326167]I thought this might be a good place to ask, do you guys know where the M1939 61-K AA cannon ejected its used casings? Was it out the back or the bottom of the gun?[/QUOTE]
IIRC it ejects them straight backwards. Ejecting them sideways would fuck with a dual mount and fuck with the operators, and straight down could cause the mount to jam on a casing.
I want to say the gun is modeled in War Thunder on a half track mount, you could dig up some videos and see if they modeled the casings being ejected.
When I shipped my AK-74 back to the manufacturer because it was having FTE's about 60% of the shots, I was able to ship it to them UPS and they shipped it right back to me. Since the owner remains the same, no need to do a transfer.
Anyone have thorough experience with the magpul GL9 mags? I wanna buy a Glock 19 but all the Gen 4's I'm seeing, are coming with 3-10 round mags a lot. So I'm probably gonna buy some 15 rounders, but I wanna know how good the GL9's are since they are cheaper.

Huh. That's neat. How's the quality?
I've had my eye on one of the 1-4x replicas (for airsoft fyi), but I've been told that the zero shifts dramatically on distance change in a lot of models. Not exactly something I want.
That website has a replica XPS. I want an XPS but I don't want to pay much for it since I'm gonna throw it on my Kel-Tec mostly just for looks since it's a range toy anyway.
They only sell on with a magnifier which sucks because it jacks the price up to $100 which is still cheaper than a real one but eh.
So we were shooting M2s, M240s, M249s machineguns during live exercise training; one of our dudes almost got badly injured; round is caught in the chamber; waited for hang fire and commenced immediate action and it was stuck. For whatever reason they remove the barrel and the round is still in there and it cooks off while one of the RSOs is holding the barrel; his hand got a nasty bruise.

Not as bad as the story I heard from one dude's time in SOI, I believe it was at Camp Geiger. They were on a company fire and maneuver exercise, and this one dumbass decided he didn't need to put his M249 on safe while doing 3-5 second rushes. Long story short, he ends up with a shattered, bloody leg and a one-way ticket back to the real world. Miracle he didn't hit the femoral artery, really.

The quality is exactly what you're paying for. It honestly holds onto my AR better than it does my airsoft guns. It wobbles around like crazy on airsoft guns, and has a bit of wobble on my AR.
As for the optics they're actually really goddamn good for cheap china grade, reticle is even decent. I have no idea how it is at holding accuracy, which I'm dying to try out. I would assume it's shit, but you never know.

I'll make a video of the wobble later.

That's what hot barrel procedures exist for pog.

I ended up finding a video of FPSRussia (I know) firing a 40mm version. The spent casings get ejected through a slanted chute at the front. The little chainlink things that hold rounds together (don't know what they're called) get ejected out the back.
Thanks for the help. :)

The BOFORS FPS Shitlord fired and the one you asked about share almost no similarities, other than being AA guns. The one he fired was a modern variation (thats actually not even remotely similar to the gun it's based off of, other than caliber) of the 40mm BOFORS the allies used during WWII, developed by the Swedes.
The one you asked about was a Soviet gun that was developed off Swedish M1933 25mm AA gun.

You can see in the video around the 40 second mark that the shells are ejecting backwards.

Damn it you are right! I'll have to make a few changes to my Algodoo design. I saw this video in my research but never noticed the casings. Thank you!

A royal marine I know had a mate lose both legs when someone called the wrong arc on a GPMG during training. Supposedly he ran through the line of fire after it was called wrong and it just cut him off at the knees, and the adrenalin was rushing so hard he just lay on the ground laughing at his dumb luck.
And of course Fedex is late for delivering my gun, first they said it would be here yesterday, then today, and now god knows when. I don't understand how they can predict it being here today when it says it is still in Arkansas.

Decent bolt gun
My friend has a Ruger American. It was pretty nice and shot well for what it cost.
The Sig 55x classic rifles were so beautiful. It's a shame that they stopped making them and focused on AR variants.

The problem was the price of those rifles. The AR market murdered them. If the gun was competitively priced at $1000-$800, it would still be around, but they stuck with the premium price of $1,500. On top of that, the budget entry rifles from S&W ate into the already saturate tactical rifle market.
I loved my SiG556, but I wouldn't buy it again (at full price). Good gun but for the price point you can get better guns and for cheaper you can get comparable guns, garbage-tier AR's not included.

I haven't seen a lot of off the shelf tactical rifles that can really compete with my M&P-15 for what it cost and how it performs. I just wish .223 was actually the affordable plinking round it used to be; no way in hell I'm paying almost a dollar a round for a gun that's not really that much fun to actually shoot unless you're going balls out with it.

Let me know how it turns out. There are ways of fixing wobble.

Guise?
[QUOTE=Zerokateo;49337371]Guise?[/QUOTE]
I remember when the Magpul Glock mags came out,, they had a serious issue that pretty much rendered them non-functional. Magpul refunded/replaced everyones mags and I haven't heard anything bad about them since. Magpul generally makes good shit. Never had issue with their AR mags.
I've never shot prone but that looks like it'd be way too high for prone shooting???
Flamethrower is legal to own in America (or at least in a lot of parts)
That's what I call a true firearm
