Only good things about it are its welded rail and ability to use G3 mags

GIR model has a rail if you want one.

it's not available in any bbl lengths shorter than 16" so who gives a shit

What should I go with:

PTR GI and also buy wide handguard, heavy buffer, Bill Springfield trigger (on HK parts) and a bajillion mags or

DSA Cold Warrior FAL bone stock with a normal person amount of mags. Can get both for about the same price.

Probably looks quite nice under a white light. The store listings were lush af, wish I'd had the money.

If I were looking to buy a factory AR10, the REC 10 would be it.

Ah, the SIG 542. The best yet most underated cold war battle rifle. Even though other people will say the AR-10 was the best, but I doubt it.

Looking to get a BR, is $1500 too much for this L1A1? The barrel is shiny and the rifling is in good condition. I just don't know anything about these guns.

Yo boys. Looking at a sa58 on armslist for $1500.
"This is a serial matching Austrian Steyr STG-58 kit built on a DS36XXX forged receiver made under contract by LMT for DSA"
comes with 9 mags and 240 rounds of ammo. seems like a good deal with a mags and ammo, any thing i should look for?

Attached: fal_austrian_stg58_on_ds36xxx.jpg (640x480, 53K)

That is an Imbel receiver which is top notch. A l1a1 sporter like that goes for 650-900 right now. You can use that receiver to make any FAL you want as its better than what DSA is cranking out right now. DSA are good smiths and can/will assemble any barrel/lower you want on a gun like that.

Well do it then. Folders are sex Good buy

But is $1500 too much to pay?

>Extra Mags 25x8= 200 (assuming they are surplus and work)
>Ammo .50 x 240 = 120
Total cost of rifle= $1180
On the higher end of market value, but you could do worse, and the rifle is made on quality receiver.

It comes with no extra mags or any ammo, I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

I thought you were $1500 for a L1A1 sporter is highway robbery. These are still too high but avaliable now:

Thanks, I thought it seemed kind of high

Basically double

What kind of optics should I get for my M1A?

ACOG/RMR to trigger boomers

Its superb irons are basically the M14's only redeeming technical characteristic, you might as well use them.

Just throw some nickles down at a gun show and boomers will trip over themselves to unload their surplus mags on you.

you have plenty

No, I like the rifle and I plan on buying a couple more in different congifurations. Going to definitely need more than 50. I remember clicking a link from Jow Forums months ago. I think it was a foreign/ship from china type site with $3 mags. Can't find it today. Traitorous Cheaper than dirt has the best prices.

Follow the /brg/ chain back until you find the link for $2 mags. Shouldn't take too long

i hate to break it to you but those mags are going to collect dust and you're going to die of a heart attack and your last thoughts are not going to be "damn i should have bought more mags"

Speak for yourself, I'm gonna die next to a mountain of empty G3 magazines and my last thought as my pistol's slide locks back for the last time and the feds close in for the kill will absolutely be "Fuck, I should've bought more mags"

Depends. Some mounts/configs will still let you use the irons. In that case I'd get something with some decent magnification, maybe fixed power, depending on how accurately it's shooting. Otherwise, I'd probably go for a 1-8x variable or something. Unless you're intent on overhauling the rifle into a modern/tactical kind of thing, I'd avoid putting an RDS or whatever on it. The irons are pretty good.

What sort of fucking fairy sees a gun and only cares about the color?
They were cheap and green.It's got a scope now and I don't really plan on using the Irons, but they worked fine before I got the scope.

that's great, now go back to /arg/

Nice

How's the trijicon 1-8? Favorite and least favorite things about it? I've had a hardon for them for awhile, wondering if I should bite the bullet and get one finally.

Holy shit I just felt a tingle in my pants

Is Malaysian surplus 308 any good?

stuck between LMT CQB MWS BATTLE RIFLE and COLT LE901
Pro and con list
COLT LE901
has track record and its design went head to head with SCAR and almost won, has modular upper tha can take any MIL spec 556 upper with modualr weapons kit form COLT.
-CON- the lower is propriety and not very popular on the market, possible that support for this rifle may become issue long term with COLT and it sordid corporate history

-LMT
PROS- makes use of DPMS AR-10 cut and thus is more open to parts form across market has quad rail system I prefer and produced by a company with solid track record for quality, Company provides 20 inch rifle I am already looking at for long range precision rifle and thus given parts sharing
-CONS
-light weight barrel, unsure of lifespan (I intend to own this for a long time).

BIAS and BLUFF- I am a COLT fan boy but at same recognize a good product when I see it.looking for second opinion input

Attached: Untitled.png (1107x1125, 283K)

just ok. the big draw was the low price. i should have bought 5k at least.

Do I not want this. Because I really want this. Some one tell me why I shouldn't want this.

> there isn’t 4+ inches of Rec10 barrel to cut off.

If you really wanted a factory built sbr you wouldn’t be here whining like a little cunt because you would know that only Noveske, LMT and Armalite make factory options.

Helpful tip: quit being a whinny little cum stain of a human and buy or build and fuck off.

What's wrong with it now? Did the price jump up or something?

They are heavy as fuck, and there are better options available these days. Unless you like to build and collect .mil clones this should be a pass. Military didn't use these because they were excellent, they has a bunch of M14 available and it was a quick and easy way to get a DMR into the field, which was sorely needed in Iraq/Afghanistan. A stopgap until they could procure and issue a real DMR.

Any suggestions for something NY legal, in the 1600$ price range then? I want a BR but It not easy here.

Well that changes a lot user. If you can't have scary salt rifles then it becomes a more viable option. Just get a regular wood or synthetic stock M1A. If you can't have the pistol grip and collapsible stock not much of a reason to go with the SAGE chassis, just adding weight.

Could get the 16" SOCOM model and still be tacticool.

Attached: img_6088.jpg (3888x2592, 587K)

Get a regular M14 and get it bedded. The platform isn't inherently heavier than other BRs given the same barrel length, it's just that stupid chassis. Also on regular stocks the metal buttplate accounts for a ton of weight, so you could even go aftermarket fiberglass/rubber and get an 18" under 8 lbs. Also it's more accurate than FAL/PTR with minor ($100-200) modifications. Ignore all the hate, they're good rifles, and even if the AR-10 performs better than M14 for the same price, M14 has soul, and you can larp as that guy from full metal jacket. Or any soldier in Vietnam.

Kind of defeats the purpose of M14 as a marksman rifle IMO. Too front-heavy to ever be room-clearing tactical. At that point he should just build an AR-10 with whatever gay cuck features he needs (or not).

Soul check: were detecting high soul levels

At that point you should just go fuck yourself
