Wooden stocks do have the potential to warp and put pressure on a free floated barrel, and how much it affects the accuracy is dependent on various factors. There are ways to mitigate the warping, for example by bedding a metal rod into the forend. Stock pressing on barrel is not always...

Another AR-AK hybrid, named Joshua mk5. Interesting part is it's all AK under the hood, typically these types use AR type multi lug bolt and barrel extension, and upper-lower receivers, where this one keeps the AK receiver, bolt carrier/piston, trunnion and trigger group as well looks like.

Thing is, putting together a bunch of individual good ideas don't make a good rifle. INSAS components are proven on paper, but if they are not in synergy, the rifle won't be good. The UK did the same thing in the 80s with SA80 program, using bureaucracy and engineers with mechanical knowledge...

Being pedantic here, but M134 type rotary MGs are more jam resistant than other types of MGs by virtue of being externally powered by an electric motor. If a dud round doesn't fire, the motor will extract and eject, no gas pressure required. Disregarding the inhuman recoil and burning through...

FAL Para conversion needs new lower receiver and buttstock, bolt carrier, recoil spring, and top cover. Relatively simple.

Yeah now that I think about it, the factors I ignored are part of the equation. Everything from political goals, military objectives, degree of industrialization, marshal or pacifist nature of society all need to be accounted for. Forget I asked anything. I wonder how someone accusing any kind...

I should clarify, I'm not wondering about the politics, diplomacy, general mindset of the social fabric, or history of the situation, just a thought experiment of practical ways to enable society to defend itself when faced against odds, or push back and take the fight to the enemy. Let's say...

.45 ACP is a bit dated and typically not flat shooting for military battle/engagement distance, but good for home defence, or across-street police shootout ranges cause the heavy bullet is guaranteed to knock down perps. Also standard subsonic .45 ACP loads are better suited for suppressing...

I have a rather wacky question to ask. Hypothetically let's say 10-15 years down the line, the situation in India is like 1930s Germany, in that it is clear that large scale total war conflicts are imminent, whether starting with us, or us getting sucked into it. In that situation, while...

For working around the AWB I suppose.

On the topic of "light" machine guns, who would like to try a belt fed 7.62 MP5 ? :biggrin2::biggrin2: While trying it, why not fire a couple rounds from the rifle too ? Perfect for all your full power cartridge conceal carry needs. They're HK-51b and HK-51k BTW. Not made by HK, but...

This one seems real neat. Without buttstock and angled ammo box, this is almost like a "bullpup" Pecheneg mg. Full power rounds in a rather small package. SF guys could have use for this kind of setup.
