How badass is your assualt rifle?
 

By request. Simply post some pictures of your assault rifle to be judged by others. I'll start:

Go!

If I am going to buy a gun, I'll do it right with a Barrett...

I'll post some pics tonight. Just for clarification, most if not all of the rifles that will be in this thread are not really "assault rifles". Assault rifles amongst other things are defined by their select fire ability (semi or full auto). The only select fire weapons that civilians can purchase now are those that were manufactured and registered before May of 1986 when the "firearms protection act" kicked in. Those firearms are NFA items and require a background check and BATF tax stamp.

Just wanted to clarify. FYI the current going price for a used M16 is about $17K. Supply & demand.

I converted a Saiga rifle into an AK-style.

Looks real nice! Did you convert yourself? I did a Saiga12 a few months ago and love it! Saiga makes some good firearms.

All that I have is a boring old Olympic Arms AR in left hand. Not just a safety swap. They make a left side eject port receiver. I hate being a lefty and having cases eject in front of my face on righty rifles. Sucks, because my ability to buy a used rifle is almost nil.

Which one... I have 3. I'll post pics later.

Scope...bipod...on an M16 platform? If I can hit a 300M target with iron sights, how far away are you trying to hit?

Yup, did the conversion on my home built office desk/workbench in my apartment (first pic). Was lots of fun.

Do issue weapons count? Not my exact assigned weapon obviously:

Absolutely! Everyone should have a 240 in their bunker! :)

How about groundhogs at 1-500 yards? :laugh: Hell I have even headshot two small deer at 200 yards with it. Also, mine is a flattop so I kinda had to put some sort of aiming device on there. Plus it is much easier for me to shoot better groups with a scope as opposed to irons. That being said, I do shoot a winchester model 52B at up to 100 yards with the factory peep sights, and do quite well.

By the way, I do have the full conversion pics and text saved somewhere on my computer, so if anyone is interested, I can post them up.

Shoots .17 caliber rounds

Not mine.

If we ever go out on a mission together, you can carry that and I'll stick with an M4. Deal? :noob:

Seriously though, those are on the heavy side and they chew through ammo. If only they'd go ahead and start giving us the piston-actuated (vs. direct gas) M4s with the slightly larger round they've been discussing..

Thankfully I have yet to shoot my eye out.

Fuckers signed me up for the 240 when I got here in Germany so now I'm qualified and that's my current weapon, trying to get me to the SAW range too. I'd much rather have an M4 and I'd even buy my own shit if they would let me carry a .308 (7.62) piston "M4". I've shot a few piston 5.56's and while it would make quals a little trickier (pistons reduce accuracy SOMEWHAT at long distances) the easier maintenance, higher reliability, and less cleaning would make it sooo much nicer. We need to go ahead and give Bushmaster or FN a contract for ACR's or SCAR's and get getting rid of the dam m16 platform over with.

/rambling I know not a lot of that probably made sense. :giggle:

haha 45B i get issued an armory

the bushmaster looks fun... im suppose to qualify with the m2 in a few months.. happiness is definatly a beltfed machine gun

Bushmaster's got nothing on the TOW's hanging off the side of that baby. M2 is about the only thing in the foreseeable future I'm not going to be qualifying on, even being sent for the German Marksmanship Badge here soon.

Why did I know this was slowly going to turn into an Army/Military thread?

^ Because all threads on this forum stray away from the topic... Haha

That is my Black Scary Rifle

And that is its case

http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik....1&disp=thd&zwClassic Bushmaster .223. Very sweet gun. Feels great. I wouldn't change a thing about it.

I would buy an AR-15 today but I cannot figure out what to use it for??? I don't think I have any pics of my SKS online but I'll go through your eyesocket with this:
http://www.lightweightmiata.com/misc/ruger1022.jpg

For close range:

Hmmm, not a picture of my SKS but a video of it. I have a black sythetic stock for it as well and thinking about putting a bipod on it but the bayonet is so damn cool that I hate to lose it. Still looking for live grenades though <G>:

um wut? i think i remember reading about somthing like this. theres a grenade luncher attachment for the sks right? doesn't it shoot a bullet (or blank?) which fires the grenade from the end of the barrel as opposed to the additional barrel that the M4 can attach?

Yes, I talk about it (kind of) in the video. It uses a blank. You flip a "switch" to direct all the gas to push the grenade out (vs using some of it to move the bolt and stuff to load the next round). Most of my shots with the golf balls had a little slice to them so if you are using it on a golf course you need to aim to the left of the green a bit...

Old school...

Springfield Arms Model 1903 MkI, and for close up a Remington Model 11 12 gauge... ok not assault rifles but as close as I get.

To shoot Terrorists when they try to invade America, because AMERICA FUCK YAH!!!!

My SKS will do that. Come on, give me a good reason to spend the $$$.

Honey, Shuiend said I NEED one for...


BTW, there is a company in TN that sells new ones for around $650 (bare bones but you have to start somewhere). The reviews are very positive for them.

I will see if i can get pictures up later tonight but i have a BCM M4 upper on a LMT lower with a Sopmod stock, troy diamondhead buis, and magpul moe handguards.

Here's my contribution to this thread.

Custom 16" Middy build with all the good stuff.

16" BCM Midlength Upper
BCM FA BCG
BCM Gunfighter Charging Handle
LaRue Fixed BUIS
Stag Lower
Magpul CTR stock
Aimpoint CompM2

Still need to grab a sling.

Here's an old one of my AK... I have since ditched the black polymer furniture and replaced it with Russian AKM furniture. Side folder is still on...

Attachment 201853

I wouldn't be postin many pictures of that third one, it's illegal. It is against firearm laws to turn a rifle into a pistol. If was built as a pistol from the factory it's OK but if the receiver was manufactured as a rifle and you cut it down....

I assume you are talking about the 3rd gun down in the picture of close range. I believe rmcelwee has a build thread about it on here and it still fits into the legal category. I am sure he will post up more about it later.

Yeah, it was the boomstick.

As usual he was thorough with the write-up...

http://www.lightweightmiata.com/projects/boomstick/

My bad, I mistook it for a rifle. Shotgun OK.

If I can find the pics I'll post them but I had a Remington M700 PSS, with Super Sniper 10x scope, Burris XTR rings, black 1903 sling, and harris bipods. I got in .308 and could shoot 1/4 - 1/2 MOA groups at 100yds. That was straight out of the box with no mods at all.

Yes he will <G>. That is a shotgun with a cut down barrel (which is COMPLETELY different than a sawed off shotgun according to SC and fed laws). It is a legal firearm and is very fun to shoot. It has a two round magazine (+1 in the chamber) and is sitting beside me right now. Go ahead and try to pull something funny behind me while I am typing this. You'll get some buckshot to the face (well, I think I have birdshot in it now but you will still be kind of sorry). The DIY laser on it makes it easy to see where your blood is going to leak out...

Put a new scope on the 10/22 today and snapped this picture (still cannot figure out a way to get a good picture of this rifle):

I get to play around with one like this, and spend a whole lot of time cleaning it too:rolleyes:

been trialling the ACOG sight and have to say it's shit heaps better than what I'm used to.

ZOMG!!!!!!!!:idea::jerkit:

Best picture I ever got of my 10/22, very pissed off that I can't find a full-size version anywhere.

Attachment 201769

military issue M4A2 rifle in Kandahar.... had to give it back :(

I've got a 10/22. I need to get rid of it so I can start building an AR15.

Ive got a Gailil(.223 ak variant) and a hi point 9mm.

BLASPHEMY!!! Would you sell a Miata to build another? Didn't think so. Keep 10/22, build AR, shoot both, be happy.

Why? I shot my 10/22 yesterday (trying out the new scope) and I am shooting it today with a friend (bragging rights and lunch). As I said earlier, I would build an AR but I haven't figured out what to use it for (other than a project). I definitely will not shoot it because I can't afford the ammo. $20 for a brick of 22LR is not bad for a day of shooting. $200 a day in ammo for an AR is just too much in my book.
