EM-TWO-OH-KINO

Everything about this rifle set up

I'm a sucker for anything that looks like it was intended for some special forces applications, especially during the cold war so for me at the top of my head, it's the Steyr mpi-81. Steyr basically took an existing Uzi and remade it for their own application use and I honestly prefer it for the same reason I love the macs, something about the boxy look and clean lines.

It’s hard to pick just one, but for a while now I’ve been obsessed with mag-in-grip guns, and I think a tricked out MP7 is just sex.

>>63850168
I concur

>>63850188
I'm going to have to figure out how to get one before I die just so I can finish out my collection of HKs with the 'falling rain' grip texture.

>>63849812
IIRC the PVS-17 on the M4 in that pic is a mockup built during production because one of the real guys (iceman or rudy I think it was) complained about them using an ACOG instead of the real thing. Funny enough there are some shots where the ACOG is still on because the director didn't want to reshoot the scene. Also those handguards are incorrect, they're UTG and not the standard issue KAC quads.

>>63846870 (OP)
m1 garand but >>63847460 is a close second.

Favorite gun of all time, too bad it's h&gay which makes actually buying one for less than the cost of a used car impossible

OICW was only 18lbs loaded. That's about the same as the m249 empty, and about 2/3 the weight of an M60 or M240. All those can easily be carried and shoulder fired by a fit man. Just because your noodle arms can't support a real rifle doesn't mean anyone else struggles. Here's my interpretation of you with th oicw.

I scroll TFB every now and then to see what’s new. Last time I scrolled I encountered this picture and couldn’t stop staring at it.

Theres too many to choose from but for me it's the FAL. There's something about the mag being perfectly perpendicular to the barrel that just rubs me the right way. I know curved gets you better capacity with the shape of the cartridge but I love straight lines.

>>63854082
Brother did you even look? >>63849646

When I was a kid there was something I liked about the mexican FX-05. Like the G36 but without the visual bulk of the handle. I still think it's cute down to the serpent shaped gas ports, it has that "second rate nation flexing that it can into firearms production too" written all over it.

>>63854340
I have no idea how much the price is, but I'd hazard a guess that it's worth somewhere around 4 times the value of the gun.

It's such a shame that the Mexican military is immensely anti-gun cause they could be selling that gun in the civilian market.

MY

FR-F2, it's just really cool to look at with some neat functionality, half the gun is covered in a heat shield that was meant to cover up thermals back in the cold war when developing better optics was all the rage.

The looks of the Colt model 723 (and it's crayon-eating cousin, the 727) without any optics are timeless.

The Russian mts569/570. Bottom one is in 9x39, top one is in 12.7x55mm. Really cool looking cyberpunk revolver rifles.

>>63848408
aside from the fishe handle on the originals I love em all. Ohe day I'll get my green card and let everyone try it out at the ranges again.

It’s not mine, but yeah, any mp7 encountered in the wild is guaranteed to be airsoft. It bothers me how little attention and development the single coolest species of gun gets. Mag-in-grip is just sex. About the only other options the civilian market has are the B&T TP9 and the Ruger LC charger. Both very underwhelming offerings.

>>63846870 (OP)
Always liked the Hk-91's, but I really thought Billy Zane's SR9 was pretty damn cool looking. I wanted to get one but then we banned them all by name in Canada just before I could.

>>63846870 (OP)
I personally find the full stock vz 58 very aesthetically pleasing.

>>63858270
Stocks that drop down like that look very inviting. The sig 55x and a bunch of other guns do that too. I once inquired about this and anons assured me that this is the proper way to execute a buttstock, just that the AR15’s buffer disallows it. And it’s true, that’s just what you want. For a shoulder fired rifle, you want a good bit of distance between the buttpad and the cheek weld so you don’t have to contort your neck too much. And you want the stock low relative to the gun/bore so your optic’s height over bore isn’t something ridiculous. Pretty sure I’ve seen competition guns’ stocks set up in this way. People make gun of the GBRS hydra, and ok the owner(s) aren’t exactly likable guys, but the product and thinking behind it is sound. A heads up shooting position is far more comfy, and increasing optic height over bore (slightly) is desireable as it moves zero-holding instruments like a laser over to the upper receiver and shifts their mass to a more desirable place. The best platform to execute this on is not the AR15 though, cause of the stock.

Squashed and slammed, toadline. If I don't need a cuck stamp I'll get a m85 and larp as a 3rd world warlord.

Either because it's a civilian-owned registered MG and the owner wanted an A2 lookalike, or it belongs to a military branch that only upgraded the significantly important bits. Plenty of A1-to-A2 overstamps floating around.

>>63866827
Yeah I’ve never seen it. So what?

>>63865868
Yes. 1980s/early 90s military small arms procurement was a very different animal from how things worked in gwot/post gwot. A lot of A1s just had internals replaced to make A2s, all the A3s were built from A2s, and plenty of A4s had A2 lowers. The airforce was even using original issue m16 rifles, not even A1s, until like 2001/2002 for security units. It's a lot cheaper to just swap parts, and it gives armorers something to do.

you have better performance than a 12 pounder napoleon from the civil war in a much smaller and lighter package

You guys will doxx, track down, and murder me for saying this but the Q boombox is a fucking vibe. Something about a super lightweight, short action, “PDW” type SBR makes me erect.

And for this next one, you will break my legs first before killing me, but I really like 8.6 blackout. I like thumpers, I like SBR cartridges, and I think there is a secret, dormant potential within it to be a resurgence of the CETME-style cartridge. The overbore ratio and ogive length are just right. One could duplicate the m855 trajectory with an ultralight VLD. It’s just a neat cartridge that seems like it can do anything.

I’ll add that I’ve heard good and band things about Q products. Bad things mostly about their quality control, and Kevin, with his abrasive, arrogant, 50 year old teenager personality, but the aesthetics and visual refinement of their products is second to none (ok maybe b&t). They really give a lot of attention to detail.

I have no opinion about Q or 8.6 blackout, however I have an opinion about you. You are a fucking moron for contradicting yourself in two consecutive sentences.

>>63889838
No, you moron, I’m not talking about attention to the detail in the inner workings and functioning of their products, if that wasn’t already obvious, since this is a thread about firearm aesthetics. Yes, Q apply themselves to superior firearm aesthetics, and also yes, their silencers are sometimes dogshit. Both can be true, dumbass.
