Anyone know where to get alpine green furniture for a PTR? I can find the stock but no forearms or pistol grips
Possibly gonna be trading my AR for a CETME with a paddle mag release and trigger job alongslide several mags and 200+ rounds of brass cased .308 (mostly perfecta and ZQI I believe)
Depending on how the trade goes I may or may not keep my Aimpoint PRO (there may be another gun thrown in for that)
If I do I'm considering mounting it on the CETME.
Is the MFI low profile claw mount any good?
>>30114581
Also should I keep the wood furniture or go tacticool and get the para stock and a new modular handguard.
>>30114581
>I may or may not keep my Aimpoint PRO (there may be another gun thrown in for that)
There had better be, otherwise you're definitely getting the shit end of the stick.
>>30114593
Keep the wood; tacticool looks retarded on a CETME.
>tfw no "Modelo E" furniture to put on my PTR
>>30114930
The PRO isn't part of the deal but the person may be interested in trading another firearm for it if they don't sell it
I impulse bought an R1A1 sporter a few years back, receiver markings are MADE BY IMBEL, ITAJUBA BRAZIL. IMPORTED BY CAI ST. ALB VT. From what i've dug up it looks like a frankenfal from century, metric pattern.
Anyone have any experience with these imports? I have issues with doublefeeding, and i think ive narrowed it down to an issue with the feed ramp, called a "monobrow feed ramp", where it is actually two feed ramps with a peak in the middle. Any advice on what to do, what to look for, if i can fix this myself, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I can post more pics as well if anyone has some insight for me.
Been thinking about getting a parts kit for a Rhodesian FAL for a while, but I've also wanted a CETME. I currently have no battle rifles atm

Got about 100 rounds through it now. It's picky; wants good and/or hot .308. Runs well with .308 Rem UMC, .308 Federal hunting loads, and .308 TulAmmo. Doesn't like Lake City 7.62 NATO or Perfecta .308. 5 round steel mag from Midway's house brand (AR-Stoner) sucked, wouldn't feed with anything. 10 round Pmags worked as stated above. 25 round pmag only liked TulAmmo, but ran like a swiss watch with it.
Something ironic about a cheap rifle build (PSA/Anderson/Asstd) only liking Tula.
>>30116148

>>30116127
Sorry, that was the first time I had ever shot it very fast. Most ranges around here don't allow more than 1 shot every 2 seconds, so I don't get a lot of time to practice eating sustained 308 recoil.

>>30114411
Tell me if this is a bad idea.
I only have one bolt action hunting rifle.
>Tikka T3 lite in 30-06.
It's had a firing pin issue but I got that fixed, but has me worried it might happen again when I go hunting, so I've been thinking about a backup rifle, I want a M1A anyway so why not make this my backup rifle when hunting? I was going to get a 243 or a 270 but I already want an M1A so..
>>30116249
If you truly want it it's never a bad idea.
>>30114411
What kind of accuracy would you expect out of each of those platforms with the M193 equivalent of .308?
I don't know much about the chambering so any info would be nice.
So basically,
FAL
PTR(G3)
M1A
AR10
And the average acceptable MOA with basic ball ammo at 100 yards?
>>30116208
>>30116255
With M80 ball? 2-4MOA for all but the .308AR; which should be able to stay <2 if it's built correctly, though IIRC the original AR10s were about as accurate as the rest. There's so much variation when it comes to the .308AR that it's hard to give you a single statistic.
>>30116469
4 MOA in an AR is considered horrid, at least on 3 shot groups.
If I pick up a battle rifle for under 1200 should I just accept that it won't be a tack driver?
>>30116562
>on 3 shot groups.
Dude, no. 5 shots minimum; 10 shots better, 20 shots best. 3 is for the fudd trying to zero his durr rifles.
>should I just accept that it won't be a tack driver?
Well yeah; it's a battle rifle, not a sniper's rifle.
>>30116562
You could poorfag up an AR10, hand polish the trigger, and get a good barrel for $1200.
>>30116646

This ammo is originally german authorized for civilian use. Likewise, there is available austrian ex-military for a good price. Apparently they really have full ass of it, when they export overseas.
do you guys take your raifus out adventuring?
>>30125171
I mean, I rarely ever go anywhere without tossing the FAL in the back, but camping in Texas on public land with a rifle is of dubious legality iirc.

>>30125310
Many century made FALs have issues.
These issues are well documented, and generally easy to fix once identified. But the spectre still lingers on them (rightfully) that the resale value is less.

Posting this here because I feel like you guys know things
I'm in the market for a new rifle. I am saving up for a Zastava M76. Problem is, I'm a broke college student, and my budget is smallish, so I need suggestions.
I need something that can be:
Made commiefornia legal
Good for long range-ish shooting (DMR range, at least 1MOA-ish on an average day with good ammo, comes with or can be equipped with a scope)
And I'd love a rifle that is:
C&R or old
Wood and Metal
Has history in a conflict
Cheap-ish round (my other gat is 8mm Mauser, so I'm willing to go up to that price).
>>30114960
You have one of the best receivers you could buy. People part those rifles out and sell an imbel rec. Alone for 500$ +
I doubt you have the monobrow because its imbel. Hesse is the receiver known for the monobrow. Your shit is most likely a lug or mag issue. If I were you I'd back the fuck off that nice receiver put down the dremel and have a knowledgable smith look at it. Might be a $20 part needs replacing you know. Hold off on potentially ruining a good investment.
Kudos for doing your research man, really.
P.s. if your mags are dsa they're garbage.
>>30118429
That one of those robert rtg bipods? Yours stiff as shit by any chance?

I would opt for a fal simply because ptrs are as widespread as glocks, you can get one whenever.
>>30132384
>broke college student
>wants 1 moa
>picks a milsurp ak variant in 8mm mauser
good luck with that.
there are no c&r rifles that shoot cartridges cheaper than 8mm mauser except the mosin and svt. the closest youre going to get is a finn mosin if you dont mind a bolt action or an FN 49 which isnt 1 moa. otherwise either get a new production rifle or pony up the $.75-$2 per round for a different milsurp cartridge.

i don't have that much money, and from gunbroker.com they seem stupid expensive. are they rare? are they worth 1k+? can they do anything from hunting to home defense? i've used the .308 in hunting rifles and it brings down deer like no other. i know that the FN FAL has .308 rounds, but are they all .308?
the only reason i want one is because they were apparently very effective in the rhodesian bush war and it'd be neat to own a piece of history like that.

How good is the M1A in relation to the more modern battle rifles?
>>30138756
I mean, they can be pretty accurate but to get them to that point you have to be pretty damn fickle with them.
I'd say buy it if you intend to spend a lot of time at the range.
>>30138756
its the best wood looking one and has the cool story and history factor with old guys who fought in early nam. its also bretty good if you live in a ban state since it cuts down on scary features really well
>>30138938
My dad was thinking about getting a mini 14, should he get an M1A instead? I obviously want one and since I'm a poor college kid I can't get one. So I figured it would be nice if we shared it, but I don't want him to get it if the mini is objectively better.
>>30138756
I like the self adjusting gas system better than the FAL's manual system or G3's roller delayed blowback.
I like the semi pistol stock more than full pistol grips.
the iron sights are GOAT
it's also stylish as all fuck
downsides are it's not the easiest gun to scope or accurize, and it's expensive.
>>30139091
I always lusted after the M1A in college but it was out of my price range. I toyed with the idea of getting a Garand, and bought a Mini 14 soon after graduating. a year or so later I happened into some money and bought an M1A.

>>30140770

Some do. There's some horror story floating around about a dude who was using Wolf ammo when his upper receiver went and decided that it wanted to cease to exist as a cohesive unit, and DSA loves to slap that warning about steel ammo on all their SA58s.
I feed my Imbel a steady diet of Turkshit, German Surplus, and Monarch, and it has yet to decide that it sexually identifies as a Glock.
Now this is pure uneducated conjecture, but I'd imagine that steel is frowned upon because of poor QC, and improperly sized cases, hot loads, and austere forms of Slavic metallurical witchcraft are what end up destroying people's raifus.

Fuck me sideways, phone keyboard. Fuck me sideways.
>>30142103
Are there any sources for surplus ammo? Only ever saw it once on armlist for an ungodly price
>>30118478
What is that thing on the top?
Also nice pie.
>>30142914
Pretty sure it an old Weaver Qwik-Point red dot.

So why should I get a battle rifle instead of a rifle with an intermediate cartridge?
>>30144346
it can do more than wound?
>>30144346
You want actually good terminal ballistics at range.
>>30144346
Just get a PDW cartridge if you want more rounds with less weight.
>>30144346
the whole point of an intermediate cartridge is having controllable full auto fire but longer range than earlier submachine guns. for a dirty civvie with semi auto only the better power and ballistics of a full size offer more benefit.
>>30144377
Like, I may be retarded, but isn't one of the main reasons of full auto to just suppress the enemy? In that case what does it matter if the M14 is hard to handle on full auto? I mean obviously you want to hit what you're shooting at but idk.
>>30144410
Rounds hitting in and around where the guy your shooting at will keep his head down. Rounds going up into the sky will not.
Thinking about getting a battle rifle that isn't in 8mm. How are the C308s? First option because of price, could save up more and get a FAL or something if I really wanted to though, just would take longer and I already have 5 surplus G3 mags.
>>30144495
>5 surplus G3 mags
that $15 "investment", isnt really
Century anything is going to likely have issues. If you want a cheap semi auto .308, try a PSA PA-10 (when they are in stock).
>>30144515
Oh yeah I know the mags aren't that big of a deal, I was just thinking since I already have them maybe look for something they'll work in. I got them for $1 a pop at a local antique store.
I've been considering building my own AR-10 since I just finished my AR-15 build from PSA but I'm not sure yet.
>>30144523
Wasn't CMMG going to make AR10 lowers that take G3 mags and work in any DPMS-pattern rifle? You could get an LR308 upper or some shit and then slap it on one of those lowers if you're all about the cheapo mag life.
>>30144912
these things lol
Alright guys, I need a high quality battle rifle that is reliable and that I can bet my life on. I will be using this gun for WROL and shtf so I need a gun that I can take to hell and back and not worry about it letting me down. So far I've narrowed my choices down to the venerable PSA ar10 and the c308. Please give me your guys experience with these fine weapons. Also I'll be open carrying it daily as I walk to my job everyday (Bi lo I'm an experienced bagger) and may need to defend myself during my travels so comfort and weight are important. Anyway nothing under .308 please. I wouldn't trust my life on anything less
>>30144912
A couple companies have.
>>30145181
Topkek
Surely though. You should get a mauser in .45-70 for your teotwawki fantasy
>>30145181
i lol'd
>>30144495
How do you like hakim any experience with the fn-49 ?
>>30145350
I love my Hakim, only thing I don't like is the price of 8mm. I don't trust the bolt either, not about to let that thing slam on my thumb so I always reload with the mag out.
No experience with the FN-49, besides holding one at a show once.
>>30114581
Pics of the gun?
Some models of CETME don't work with claws
>>30114960
Centurys are hybrids
They use a metric lower but an inch kit
>>30114960
Are you using DSA mags?
If so, stop
That's an inch magwell and Dsas don't work
>>30145839
Cut your teeth on guns with ARs?
Century built those abortions yes.
The also had a very short run in the late 90s with a metric upper that had some inch geometry on it. Also did some pure metric/metric builds. Doesnt matter what you get, your likely to have issues with it if CAI marked it.
So.. I'm thinking of starting my first battle rifle build.
But my first question is this: Do Veprs count as BRs? I'm looking at a 7.62x39 with a 16 inch barrel as a base.
Questions, comments, input, viscous attacks?
Pic only semi related. Not what I'm going for.
>>30145943
>viscous attacks?
You like slavshit so you have no taste, and your looking at x39 so you dont want a battle rifle. Try /akg/ for some advice that. Decide to step up to a real rifle, in a real caliber, this is your place.
>>30114411

Soon.

vicious*
I can't spell for shit.
>>30145975
I'd be lying if I sad the SA58 isn't on my radar. How is it on aftermarket parts? And how much "better" is .308 than the x39?
>>30146023
.308 is good to 1000m
There are better cartridges for work that far out though.
>>30146047
>1000 yards.
Fair point. But what if I'm not all that interested in long range shooting?
>>30146092
The increased power also is useful for penetrating barriers and thin skinned game. The capability of shooting long range doesnt mean you have to use it that way. Hell, enough fags here stick with irons.

Getting a Scope for my FNAR
Should i get a Vortex Viper PST 1-4x24 TMCQ MRAD or a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x24 and why?
20" barrel
>>30146121
.308
20" bbl
Rifle with do moa
wants a low, low power optic
Go with a 2.5-10 at least man.
>>30131109
Schweiz?
>>30146154
Yes even the swiss ones
>>30146141
I want to get a Nightforce 2.5-10 but its so expensive but thats the end goal scope for it.
I am thinking of getting a 1-4 or 1-6 that i will later move to my 10/22.
any good fairly cheap quality scopes with 2.5-10?
>>30146183
I love my NF 2.5-10
Vortex isnt that bad
So your looking for a mega budget scope?

>>30146223
Gets you started getting used to Horus reticles.
>>30146119
.308 is probably really good for boar hunting, I bet.
I guess the ability to be able to shoot up the that range would be nice.
They do make 16" veprs in .308 win... So I'll take that into consideration.
>>30146202
Buying a scope mount for 300$
I'll think i'll just get a 1-4 vortex viper for the moment.
>>30146244
Sphur, decent mount. Check out GDi too.
Magpul shit is cheap, magpul shit looks okay.
Defending Rei one .308 at a time.
>>30146297
Magpul stocks are nice.
Magpul magpuls are nice
The rest of it....
Well, the VFGs are okay
>>30146312
Thanks, fwend.
When I was putting shit on it, I wanted to be able to make it better looking than an over sized A2 style. It's just that I rarely ever see anyone make almost a complete magpul furniture AR.
For the price, I think the stuff is pretty reasonable. I even have their grip panels on my 1911. Love it. But I'd totally buy better stuff if I could.
>>30146394
For the price (except some of the stocks) are highly reasonable.
>>30146420
Oh totally, the PRS was like....225. I only got it because I thought it looked cooler than the original.
Shit is super expensive. The only one that isn't overly priced is the MOE rifle stock.
I've seen it go for like 40 in other places.

I love the UBR, not really any cheaper.
Hey /brg/, whats the best NJ legal G3 clone? If its possible one that has aftermarket wooden furniture?
