Why do they call this rifle the "Rolls Royce of Battle Rifles"?

>the Stgw.57 represented one of the finest and most expensive automatic rifles ever issued to any army in the world.Chambered for full power 7.5 x 55 GP11 ammunition, the Stgw.57 provides long range accurate shooting in semi-automatic mode, necessary for the typical Swiss mountain country, in combination with significant full auto firepower, thanks to its relatively heavy weight, integral bipod and a shrouded barrel.

Yeah I know, the video shows the AMT in 7.62, but it's basically the same thing as the Stgw 57.

because calling something
>the "company/model" of "X domain"
is retarded and people are retarded.
Also it was well built.

I like Swiss rifles but that shit looks like it came out MGSV
>>
>>29157298
It's like a match grade G3 but a country was insane enough to make it standard issue.

I would say that's at least somewhat admirable.

>>29157298
Looks like AIDS and Herpes had a babby.

It's what happens when a g3 hatefucks a k31, while fg42 and stg44 watch.

>>29157298
It's such a hideous gun, it really looks like something you'd expect from the Germans in 1945
>>
>>29157298
It looks like parts would snap off really easily. Those sights look like they belong on an Olympic rifle, not a tool for soldiers to lug over mountains.

Dont know who calls it like that, but here is the new DMR stock for it by Wyssen Defence. Saw it at Fischen, Jagen Schiessen this year.

>>29157710
Well yes since that is a sporterized one. (I dont like people that sporterize their military weapons.)
>>
>>29157298
No matter how good it may perform, it's still ugly as fuck.

It's a real disappointment since i know the Swiss can do better.

IIRC, it's the most expensive infantry rifle ever generally-issued.

>>29158786
Are more photos of it is use? Especially out of Chile.
>>
>>29157298

It's like a really good gunsmith had to make a gun only with the supplies he had available at a Home Depot.

And the design schematics he was given consisted of a picture of an FAL and RPD crudely drawn on a napkin.

The 510 is beautiful in its own special way

80s British video, halfway in one of them masturbates over the 510. Pretty interesting.

The best use of it.

Heh, I love it. That grin at the end was worth it.

"Rather nice... Very expensive... And I have one."

Mardones have spent WAY too much time learning how to put battle paint on.

Rolls Royce Silver Ghosts are pieces of fucking shit. There is a damned god reason these pieces of dogshit cost $20,000.

The only good part is you can hack them up and get your car in a magazine because you hacking up a Rolls-Royce.

The Stgw 57 weighs like 7kg. I know that it's reliable and I like the bigger caliber, but the Stgw 90 is a good successor. Unfortunately, it's only chambered in 5.6mm.
>>
>>29157298
That grip and trigger placement looks beyond uncomfortable

>>29158869
Thats something you tell a retard to make him feel better about himself.

>>29157729
God damn, that's sick as fuck.
