Recoil is actually really soft. The piston shoves the bolt carrier rather than smacks it. It’s not nearly as bulky to hold as it looks and is actually decently thin except for the side rails at the front. It’s also the lightest piston rifle on the market.
As far as gas goes it’s non existent unless you put a suppressor on it in which case it’s gassy. It’s because of the open left side ejection port.
I’ve got one, if you are a lefty like me they are pretty nice, it’s completely ambidextrous. It’s REALLY light. You have to use STANAGs, PMags don’t work, but if you get the official Beretta STANAGs I think they are actually steel instead of shitty bendy aluminum like the original 1960’s-1990’s style USA STANAGs, so they are actually reliable.
Big Bertha
Lancer, HK polymer, Gen 3 Pmags, and a few others also work.
The Beretta steel mags are the best stanags I’ve ever used. They’re even better than HK steel mags. absolutely Tank-like.
Literally perfection
Ar niggers just mad they’re not in the 22nd century
>Also it does work with pmags gen 2s work perfectly gen3 can work if you file down the over insertion tap
As someone who owns one, couple things
1. The 5.56 market was way too flooded when they released it and especially at the price point they originally had it at
2. It looks like a pregnant guppy and aesthetics matter more than most think in regards to firearm sales
3. Marketing wasn't great on it.
4. The sling attachment points are retarded.
5. Their original claim of being able to swap out barrel and other part to make it a .308 or 7.62x39 was bullshit and everyone knew it.
6. Practically zero after market support/ accessories.
I personally love mine and have had nothing but good experiences with it. That being said, I was gifted mine from someone who bought it for 800 at academy after the price dropped. If you know anybody with one, try it out and you may be surprised
This pretty much.
AR18 based systems are like assholes, everyone has one.
I’ve gotten the opportunity to handle and shoot one before; and honestly it’s a great rifle.
The sling attachment points could be better thought out.
This is my super ghetto solution. Works better than you think
>What went wrong?
They still aren't making any proper AR clone. Hell, even small custom manufacturer had to pop up to make some, I want my national made ARs.
