M_Gargantua posted:Alright, that kinda sold me. I've seen some nice match grade M1A's and the semi-auto is attractive, but if it loses practical effectiveness I'll just pursue a nice 700. Now knowing all the kind of marketing poo poo Remington probably pulls that will be fun to research. It's not even the marketing, Remington is just poo poo now. That said I do have old ads from Shot Show 2014 for the R51 talking about being stranded in Meth Valley or something. Of course the R51 speaks more to how poo poo Remington is in the production and design area now more then anything else.

That said if you don't want to do traditional research or care about cost, just buy guns as I did at one time, based on things from when I was a kid and watched Commando, Terminator, Predator, Die Hard, Invasion USA, Delta Force, etc Let the IMFDB be your guide.

suboptimal posted:Real talk, anyone have experience with the Ares SCR? I live in a van city (DC) so this is about the only thing I can get AR like performance out of. I seem to recall someone in TFR owns it and liked it. I also know it's even legal in NYC. It's still really modular apparently.

BigDave posted:Any thoughts on the Bushmaster XM15-E2S? I'm thinking about making the plunge and getting a scary black rifle. Don't buy a Bushmaster. For low budget entry, look at Palmetto State Armory...although Sky Shark will have to chime in on which one is the budget and which one is the premium build as I can't remember.

Yep, it's pretty drat amazing they were able to design around it and not make some horrid aboard like the Stag complaint guns are for NY (or were being offered) and still be really goddamn modular.

Reverand maynard posted:Has anyone shot a sig mcx? I love the idea of a folding stock rifle but I haven't heard anything positive about it. It's expensive, the first wave had an accidental MG ability, and expensive proprietary mags. The conceal bag in the ads was kind of cool...hell the ads were the coolest thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtDJSUxzqg8 It's 9mm vs 556, but look into the CZ Scorpion, if you can do an SBR in your state. It's still cheaper than the MCX.

Nope sign offs were eliminated with 41F. You just mail a notification letter. You don't need a trust either.

Duzzy Funlop posted:So, bump-stocks and other poo poo that facilitates high rates of fire while not technically being "automatic", Im assuming? Essentially yes. You can also do this bouncing your finger around the trigger while holding the gun at your side. It's extremely dumb looking and makes it look like you're trying to finger bang the gun. Truthfully when I tried a Slidefire at Shot Show in 2014, the one thing I felt was that it was a pain to control and not terribly comfortable.
