If you can find an unmarried sear, theoretically you can drop it into any of the HK-91 through 94 line. I say theoretically because ATF likes people to marry sears to guns when it comes to HK's.

Yup, they were unique to the gun so they had to use it for both semi and full auto. Basically all the parts were, just like every gun that's not an AR-15.

AR and HK packs are few in supply and very high in demand. If I was to choose it wold be an AR RDIAS. So many possibilities and cheaper than HK. If I was to buy my first MG it would either be an AR RDIAS or a cheap AR15 lower. The cheapest I could find. Me, I would just find a cheap lower. They last forever and not much is lost over a RDIAS.

You know how much they cost, right? AR pattern from low 20's to low 30's, depending on what it is and desirability. That's in thousands. HK's typically about 10k-ish more.
The definitive magazine for this sort of thing is Small Arms Review. I think you can subscribe to online and print versions. |

If you think about it that is about the cost of 5-10 nice guns. Wilson, Nighthawk, custom bolt guns, higher end semi auto rifles. I sold off all my semi auto rifles after I bought my M16A2. They were all boring. I'd rather have 1 machine gun than a bunch of semi's.

What, are they like Sendra's or Essential Arms? EA's are investment cast and I'd worry about the holes egging out. Although quite a few were papered I haven't seen any for sale for quite awhile.

I sent a calgunner a link to a brand new colt m16a1 a year ago. He got that dirt cheap. Deals can be found.

regardless of your voting patterns, you're the epitome of what Americans dislike about californians and furthermore encouraging support of a ca based company over Idaho based Who owns Basic American Foods? The company is led by Jaquelin's sons, William J. Hume and George H. Hume. It is headquartered in Walnut Creek, California. Idahoan Foods is a company based in Idaho Falls, Idaho, founded in Lewisville, Idaho in 1960. It specializes in the production of dehydrated potato products, which it sells under the brand Idahoan.

Basic RECENTLY bought the plant I work in. It employs Significantly more people than Idahoan, in Idaho, with better pay, better benefits, and retirement. But you would know that if you ACTUALLY knew what you were talking about.
(One of the reasons I gave up trying to have a conversation with a*"holes like you. The other guy misunderstood my post, and you, like always have to white knight with your ignorant bulS**t.... Last edited by Howie44; 09-20-2020 at 1:13 PM.. |

while neither of these companies seem to have stellar employee reviews, they do both seem to be quite similarly rated
but I'm sure your vast 3 years of expertise on everything idaho is much more accurate than anything these idahoan employee have to say.. idahoan company employee ratings american basic foods company employee ratings thank goodness you graced idaho with your presence, lord knows what a jam they'd be in without you they must really find you charming while you hold such high regard for them Quote:

I was just talking to my buddy back home about this stuff.. he mentioned two things - firearms trust and large movement to remove suppressors from nfa.. he doesn't have anything yet but he's been working his butt off for a few years now finally at a great paying job so he'll probably be shopping about the same time as me we're just sitting back enjoying it vicariously through y'all

A couple weeks ago I had to go across town for a meeting. Figured I would check out the newest indoor gun range after the meeting. Tossed our F2000 and UZI in the truck.

I have a SIG 556xi pistol (10.5") with a TB brace and my HK SP5 has a SB PDW brace, same with my CZ Scorpion Micro. Just easier, cheaper of course, no hassles taking it to neighboring states, etc. Who knows, it might be an option down the road , but for now, I'm fine.

"and you treat every single person on this forum with a different opinion than yours like sh*t "
You haven't been here long enough to make that kind of call from the 18 years that I've been a member and contributer to this organization.both online and when I lived there, in the real world.... What have you done except personally attack me when you don't like what I say? How about you don't pay attention to what I post, newbie. |

YOU engaged me and spiralled out of control into the tantrums of name calling with no substance for rebuttal.. most of my comments weren't directed to anyone specifically yet YOU chose to bear them as your own.. well, if the shoe fits... furthermore, if you actually read what I've posted on the subject instead of raging over it, you'd realize that most of it is substantiated by the majority of what you and the other recent transplants have posted here.. you still have yet to provide anything of any substance to counter what I've posted other than 'I can't see that from my house' and 'you're an ashole' so keep on digging.. as for being a newbie, if you actually consider the tenure of an anonymous forum membership as life experience, you should really re-evaluate your metrics.. your forum demeanor is arrogant and rude, and your personal attacks on me will not be ignored or tolerated.. you have been severely defeated in this matter, time YOU let it go.

I recently sold my custom build 50 DTC match gun, DTC reloading tools & loaded ammo to a CA buyer, so had some cash to acquire some Barrett goodness.
M107A1 with Barrett QDL suppressor. The optic in the video went TUB after 20 rounds, so it now has a Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25x50. Have only had a chance to shoot at 100 yards so far, but with my AMAX loads it gets sub MOA groups. CalGunner SVT-40 on the gun.. . . .

thanks for posting, please keep 'em coming! might have to see what y'all can do with mine I love my m82a1! back in summer of '03 I overheard guys discussing the upcoming ban while shopping at Turner's sig hill.. I picked up an xp instead of the trp that day and made a mission out of getting a Barrett.. thanks to Rob at Impact, got #60 of the 100 ca models Ronnie got approved just before the '04 ban.. my pick up date was just after Christmas '03 MISSION COMPLETE! and later made up for leaving the trp behind by ordering a pc9111 I was looking at Swarovski for mine but Rob at Impact said they had high reticle failure rate on bmgs and suggested IOR 6-24×50.. 16 years later holding up like a champ! I bought the t-handle torque wrench to keep the rings tight and never any issues whatsoever.. and love those 750gr A-Max too! I think you donated some rounds to our Wounded Warrior Project fund raiser few years ago, right? Thank you! we raised $6k I think one time and I believe over $10k the second one.. those folks had a great time.. one group had the director or something like that and his wife and an actor from saving private ryan, nice people! my buddy Richard Ryan of course made my rifle famous with all the iPhone and assorted tech he blew up with it in several episodes of Barrett vs _____.. he's since moved on back to Tennessee with his own arsenal Verne Troyer - Mini Me sitting with my Barrett

With the suppressor the recoil is quite stout. I have not tried shooting it without the detachable suppressor brake. Would likely be quite punishing, but quieter. Recoil without the suppressor attached is much less, but has accompanying blast typical of the type.
Yep, I remember the day we hosted the WWP shoot. A fun day. Great pic with Verne!
