Sadly, I also realize that they aren't that good. Agreed. They look fantastic. Very streamlined, racecar looking guns. I don't know much about the development. I am curious where they got the idea for the action design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelninja333 Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 How stupid is this idea: Replace 12.7mm HMG with 20mm autocannon firing ammunition like the 20mm SHVAK, giving better lethality against infantry with HE and firing Sabot against AFV´s.

The US Army is replacing most of their vehicle-mounted M2s with 30mm autocannons, so not that stupid evidently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoooSeR Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 https://vk.com/wall-160278262_235?w=wall-160278262_235 about AEKs, AFAIK this comrade tested both A545, A762 and AK-12 as well Quote Let's talk about the Avtamat from Kovrov? Briefly, because this topic is tiring. Something can be called not objective, something could have changed since 2016, however: - titanium details in the trigger group to pass in the requirements by weight - buttstock, it is suitable for PDW, but not for a army avtomat. Who fired a lot from AKMS or SR-2? That's the same! - thick handguard - to cock weapon you need to apply a horse-level of force - BARS does not work in 7.62 - BARS does not give a tangible advantage at medium and long range in automatic mode - BARS is needed for fast and accurate follow up shot ["double tap"] in single fire mode. And is that a general army assault rifle? If I could lay out the sheets with the number of holes in the targets at different distances, done in different shooting modes from different positions from tested machines + from usual AK74M / AKM, and even fix it all with an approximate price for one discussed product, the figures would said everything by themselfs.

LoooSeR Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Also from that guy - "The worst ammo" Quote Domestic catridges are often scold, sometimes deservedly. Stumbled on 9х19 without edges, and on 5,45 with two edges 😨, not speaking about such trifles as different amount of propelant in each catridge, not very good quality of surface, etc. But a couple of years ago on a business trip I had the pleasure of using 7.62x39 cartridges, which firmly occupied the first place in my personal top. Their origin was not established reliably, there are suspicions of China production or the countries of the Middle East. Rare package of cartridges was without a catridle with previously not seen problem. The most common phenomena - different depths of the bullet insertion in case and the cracked / broken off dulce. Disgusting capsules, crumbling or falling out entirely inside the box. An incomprehensible green mold on bullets, a sticky black substance on liners, gaily sticking to the walls of the chamber ... terrible! But the funny thing is that in 99.9% of cases (a couple of times the firing pin did not physically reach for the capsule) the 103, all these charms were "absolutely up to the drum" [did not affected/didn't cared]. More than 30K of these wonderful cartridges, burnt on several automatic rifles, further convinced me that it is possible to forgive a lot to Kalash.

Anyway, I was just thinking of this the other day, and (I'm sure people will jump on me for my supposed bias against anything German), one cannon I really do like as a potential "in between" candidate is the Rheinmetall Rh 202 chambered in 20x139mm. I think it might have some issues with windowed or lighter vehicles however as it's rather beefy for a 20mm caliber round and I'm not exactly sure of the recoil impulse it has.

roguetechie Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 That's a little scary. Realistically how safe would the mortar guys be? Would the first guy's face being more or less dead nuts aligned for him to boresight down the tube at least serve as sufficient ablative mass so that they don't lose the god damn mortar crew too?

Yes, they are various 20mm RES cartridges and sectioned bullets for them, however I'm not incredibly well versed in the prototype "super at rifles" that the USSR made, EnsignExpendable or Akula probably know a lot more than I do on the subject.
