oh im not even looking at authentic hk kits
i already know those are gone and or 4-7k
thorny flame
best bet is one of the new builds (still probably a year wait time at least)
maybe if they're still doing the turk imports
carmine tide
im not buying a turkish gun
its gonna be a gun i rely on
same reason i dont want a PTR
i was looking at dakota tactical but i could buy an mr556 for the price of one
thorny flame
well you understand spending 5k on a 93 is insane
carmine tide
and probably fully kit it out
thorny flame
you could buy a kitted out MR556 for that
as someone who's been down that road it's just not worth it
carmine tide
FUCK
carmine tide
yea i might just have to go with an mr556
carmine tide
eh at that point id rather just buy an iris for the mr556
unless i use the SP5 for HD
thorny flame
but the 53 is not pleasant at all
the ideal is something like a 33k
they were doing these for a bit awhile back
very cool
carmine tide
the ideal is something like a 33k
I was also looking at k clones
Cause I like the 12.5 barrel
thorny flame
have you shot one?
carmine tide
Nope
thorny flame
the problem is this just becomes a huge money sink
if you have to shoot one the MP5 is it
the 91s suck ass, and the 93s were unpopular for a reason
carmine tide
Yea I'll just build out a mr556
thorny flame
the mp5 you could keep and shoot for the rest of your life
and they're just fun to shoot
idk why you'd build one, they're not expensive esp if you have a lower floating around
carmine tide
The great thing about working for the company i buy guns from is i can track shit better than normal people

if you have dealer pricing they're probably like idk 1700

if you have dealer pricing they're probably like idk 1700

thorny flame
i mean for the mr556 upper
carmine tide
Oh i meant for the sp5
thorny flame
if you were going to shoot it i wouldn't do the 416 clone route
that shit is a trap
all those AF uppers are tired as fuck
carmine tide
Cloning is gay unless its from the 80s-late 90s
thorny flame
well the 416D is still drippy
carmine tide
I do want to get the 11" and i will put a quad rail on it cause I dont like how the mlok rail is more oval than circular
carmine tide
A4?
thorny flame
older
AF/AH date codes
there's going to be a glut of them on the market soon though
so it's just not worth it
as they rotate out LE armories
carmine tide
Ah yea I wanna get an a4
thorny flame
if you want to shoot it you want the latest one
but it's still a questionable purchase there
golden marlin
Ah yea I wanna get an a4
Is that literally because they added a special hole so the gun doesn't beat itself to death as bad

Piston vs di or hk vs lmt/lwrc

carmine tide
I've only just got to 1k on the 16
golden marlin
The HK piston guns are the reason why people don't like piston driven ars
carmine tide
Finished it a few months ago
golden marlin
And why they get such a bad name
At least with lwrc and LMT the recoil on them is a lot smoother
carmine tide
Ive got a buddy with 3 mr762s all have thousands on em and hes had 0 issues
carmine tide
At least with lwrc and LMT the recoil on them is a lot smoother
Its 5.56
Im not worried about recoil
golden marlin
Its 5.56
Doesn't matter like unironically. The difference in recoil on the 416 is very noticeable
It's a lot more aggressive
Very distinctively different
Cuz the 416c I've had experience with I don't like
I had more pleasant experience with a lwrc
Than a 416
carmine tide
Im visiting a buddy in 2 weeks with an 11 mr556a4 im gonna test out
golden marlin
Like the A4, the only reason why it's better on gas is because they added a giant hole to vent out the extra gas
Which just so you know
Even with a suppressor that will have a second muzzle flash
You will be getting a port flash
It's the same thing with the scar. The scar does the same thing
With a second flash
thorny flame
Im not worried about recoil
it's noticeable though coming from a tuned DI gun
there's a reason everyone is just on that 11.5 gas gun shit now
if you wanted to go gucci i would do one of the SR-15s before the HK memes
still cheaper than a mr556/416
golden marlin
I thought a sr15 was like 5-6k
You can get a upper for like 2k
carmine tide
You will be getting a port flash
Is it cause of the muzzle device or is it an actual ported barrel
golden marlin
Is it cause of the muzzle device or is it an actual ported barrel
It's because the gas block itself allows for a lot of extra gases to escape out the end of the gas block
You are venting a lot more gases and because the hole is big enough to vent a lot more, sometimes you will get a port flash
carmine tide
Wouldn't tuning the gas properly fix that?
golden marlin
Not really
The 416 vents a lot of gas
And the stock gas block is not adjustable
It's literally a thing with bleed off gas designs
carmine tide
And the stock gas block is not adjustable
Uhh every upper ive looked at has one
Even on hkparts it comes with an adjustable one
At least the a4s ive been looking at do
golden marlin
Even on hkparts it comes with an adjustable one
That must be a new thing then?
I'm familiar with like just the basic quad rail standard gas block models
carmine tide
I'm familiar with like just the basic quad rail standard gas block models
The a4 comes with mlok
carmine tide
Ive been told its better on gas but never how thats achieved
golden marlin
It's because it vents most of the extra gas out
That's literally why
They changed the gassing because they're bleeding off most of the gas out of the gas block
Literally Right through that top hole
The scar does the same thing
I'm pretty sure even the Aug does it too
And that guns worse about the flash
Like if you're going to be mounting a suppressor on it, you're only just going to make the the more gas that is going to be venting out worse
carmine tide
Yea planned on a flow through from b&t
round sentinel
Based and real

If you're getting 9 mm CGS mod 9sk

buy one as a fun gun
golden marlin
That would be my recommendation
I literally am still running it and the factory spring that they put in the Nielsen device
I got 6,000 rounds out of mine which is twice the amount they recommend
summer plover
What do you mean they're still being made by (M)KEK
Also that guy's helmet is ridiculous
carmine tide
If you're getting 9 mm CGS mod 9sk
is there a tri lug adapter?
golden marlin
is there a tri lug adapter?
Yep, how else do you think I mounted it on my Makarov?
golden marlin
It's the safest way to mount the suppressor without causing damage to the suppressor or the threads
carmine tide
what the absolute fuck
golden marlin
Because the Makarov barrel doesn't have a shoulder
To properly thread the suppressor against
This suppressor was also requested by the FBI
summer plover
Because the Makarov barrel doesn't have a shoulder
Isn't that why they had to make the PB it's own little bullshit?
golden marlin
So CGS does have a contract with the FBI with the suppressor so they can mount it on MP5s
golden marlin
Isn't that why they had to make the PB it's own little bullshit?
Probably
I don't know
That system's a little different
And it's a lot more quieter
The Makarov suppressed is the loudest gun I have

golden marlin
you said the round count on it from the manufacturer is 3k?
So if you are going to be using the factory Nielsen device spring
Which by the way, when I say this, this is average for pretty much all suppressors using a Nielsen device
The recommended time to replace that spring is 3 to 4K

@blazing temple
