Donward Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Well played sir. So whatcha like about it and have you taken to the range for some trigger time/fought off a platoon of ninjas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted January 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 not yet, I was going to today but I got caught up doing things for once, why do things have to happens anyway? But, I really need to look at grips, the size is fine, but the gripping itself feels like cheese graters on my hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collimatrix Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Seen on DE Watter's Facebook page:http://autoboltfirearms.com/This doesn't seem very worky to me. The available energy from the recoil of cycling the entire firearm would be rather low; better to use lighter, faster-moving components. You know, the way they figured out over a century ago.

Xlucine Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 So, the whole barrel recoils? And they're talking about how it's more accurate than a semi-auto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collimatrix Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 The whole gun recoils, more or less. It's more precise because the optics are attached to the barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulric Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 The autobolt, because AR-15 and SR-25 based rifles simply cannot be THAT accurate..... For practical purposes, the crossover point where bolt actions can be made more accurate than certain semi-autos is in the bench rest realm, where the rifles simply become silly and impractical for any other purpose anyways. I've had AR-15's that could print rather impressive groups without even hand-loading ammunition for them; somewhere in the realm of 0.15-0.25 MOA.

Khand-e Posted January 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 The whole gun recoils, more or less. It's more precise because the optics are attached to the barrel. This Isn't nearly good enough, I won't be pleased until the gun, the shooter, and the entire 30 square feet surrounding him all recoil.

Khand-e Posted January 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Also, copy pasting from other small arms thread because I'm genuinely curious to this. "So yeah, went to buy ammo for new G22 Gen4, only to be saddened by the fact the ammo store I go to was out of Buffalo Bore for the caliber (also known as John Browning's tears ammunition), and aside from "whatever FMJ target ammo is on sale that day", I usually don't buy anything else. So, I bought Golden Sabers, but I noticed something I've never seen from Remington next to it called ultimate defense, upon unboxing it, it..... looked basically identical to Golden Sabers and had identical listed performance, but were quite a bit cheaper. I bought the sabers anyway as I've actually used them before, but, not finding much on Remington's website or googling as to what the [edited]the difference is supposed to be, I'm starting to wonder if I got duped into buying an "older", more reputable product for more and Ultimate Defense rounds exist simply for the reason of making Golden Sabers look better when you see them next to each other and they cost more, or maybe vice versa. Either way, is there literally any difference at all aside from packaging and price?" I guess one note is, I'm guessing the Golden Sabers may be better suited for compacts or at least tested in them, as I actually had them chronoed at the muzzle when firing them today because I like to test things, and consistently got 50-75 fps above the box listed fps. Would be refreshing if they didn't rig their test results with unfeasibly long barrel lengths and cherry picked numbers. Donward 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donward Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 I've never really fired any Buffalo Bore products, although I know folks rave about them. I generally just go with Federal HydroShok for my carry piece although I have a hodgepodge of ammo for it for my "tactical" reloads. And by "tactical" I mean, it's basically whatever I have stashed in the various different places I hold or carry extra ammo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted January 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 List of things to know about Buffalo Bore: They shoot really hot and snappy with bullet designs that tend to work really well. They're expensive. .....there's my extensive review of the topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donward Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 When you care enough to send the very best. Ah screw it, tomorrow I'm going to rely on my .32 ACP loaded in 71 grain American Eagle FMJ. Shot placement, baby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khand-e Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Nah, .32 Long and .32 ACP are the smallest rounds they load. ....Well, if you want to be really technical, they also load match grade .223 Boat tail JHP and polymer tip rounds for various barrel twist rates, but something tells me you'd have trouble fitting .223 Remington in a .22 LR magazine for some reason.

Donward Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 As a pleasant surprise, the M9A3 Beretta thread at TFB is mostly populated by sane and rational comments; with the Cult of the 1911 and 45 ACP not arriving yet. http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2015/01/13/army-passes-berettas-proposed-m9a3/#disqus_thread Also, the M9A3 looks dead sexy...

LoooSeR Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Recently those things were tested by our SF. You can see several interesting things, including AS-1 and AS-2 prototypes, AK-104 in bullpup configuration and others. FSB SF unit "Smerch" AFAIK.

Sturgeon Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Americans are obsessed with high performance handguns, which really ignores the fact that ballistic science indicates that handguns all are terribad no matter how roided up they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donward Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 It's just an unrealistic expectation of what handguns are for and what they're meant to do and what they can do. In my mind, they're like wearing a Personal Flotation Device when working on a boat. They'll keep you afloat for a little while but you'll have to be either rescued at some point or swim to shore.

Jeeps_Guns_Tanks Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Well, John McClane used his 92F to get a machine gun. He was the better man. I can still watch Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donward Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Indeed. The appeal of John McClane is that he is the common, everyman put into an unusual situation who prevails and overcomes. Riggs is... well... Riggs is just Mel Gibson acting crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
