1681155918381.png

both P320 and P17 just breaking apart in two thanks to that design of polymer frame that houses metal framed fire control unit; and lol i used to think worst about these pistols were that they go bang bang abruptly on their own...

besides there aremore issues like
- ejector (fixed blade type, part of metal frame of FCU) gets bended after some use (rumoured to be happening because of overinsertion) and in worst cases it just locks up slide to the frame, so you cannot cycle it anymore

or outright breaks off the pistol and gets lodged inside working parts causing issues or what not, making you get a new metal frame for FCU itself 🤷‍♂️

- tip of firing pin breaks off the pin and gets lodged inside working parts of just gets stuck within slide, causing ranging of issues like obstruction in slide movement to worse, slamfires

- broken extractors

- broken sear

🤷‍♂️ 🤷‍♂️ :yawn: amreekis...they should've just kept using Berettas or if they wanted a striker fired pistol so badly then Glock was already there in that race but *somehow* SIG SAUER won

and for sake of fair criticism, here is ruskie counterpart,
MP-443 'Grach', here chambered in ;less lethal; 10x28mm ammo for police usage etc things;
notice its polymer frame also got broken very similarly like SIG SAUER P320 // P17 with that separate FCU remaining somewhat intact with slide part, as i shown in post above

American MIC needs to eat man, they are always hungry. This is just standard quality work by SIG these days, lets see how long the new M6 rifles last with those hot .277 rounds.

Everybody thinks they are that much better than ol' reliable.

7.62x39 travelling 2km and penetrating 20ft of concrete :pound: :pound: :pound: :pound:
Its not 20 ft thick concrete but 20 ft tall concrete baffle wall, designed by DRDO/TBRL for shooting ranges. If the rifle was fired at an inclined angle a bullet can flyover the concrete wall and travel longer distance, which is what happened. At that distance, the bullet would have lost a significant amount kinetic energy and the unlucky victim luckily might have escaped with injury.

That's just the plot building to prove how dangerous the new iNdIgEnOuS rUsI AK-203 are.
But where is the Ak 203 , has it gone back to Russia?
I know we will never see it in action that softie rifle could not withstand indian heat and probably went back to Russia
