Pretty sure these aren’t real, but they sure look impressive.
Welcome aboard.
You can find a link to the podcasts at the top of the thread.
That way you can listen at your leisure.
Yeah I’m sure its a joke.
I thought an old SKS with a new stock would work, but it's not what I'm looking for.
Ok for the money, but I don't like it. You get what you pay for and I think it's time to step up with a bigger checkbook.
Here’s a decent starter.
Oops! no iron sights.
Then that DPMS Sportical mylife linked to is a good choice.
I had a DPMS and it was a fine rifle. You won’t be sorry.
I finally got to try the SSAK 47 today.
It’s harder to shoot than the SSAR 15 due to recoil, but I got pretty good with it after 40 rounds.
RANGE REPORT
Shot the new SCAR 17 this week. It’s so damm loud it’s hard not to flinch. However, it’s also so smooth to shoot it’s hard to tell the difference between it and the AR15...maybe has a little more pop on the shoulder but not much after 100 rounds. The trigger pull is awesome! it hits around 1/8th or less a pull. The open sights are so cool too, it’s like a peep inside a peep and very unique. The mags are delight too, you don’t need a Lula Loader of anything. One drawback is they only make 10 & 20 round mags, they need a 30 rounder like the FN FAL has. The other drawback is they are way overpriced. Can’t wait to take it on a long range, and indoor range is just too short.
Or you could go this route:
$109 for this lower. I have one and it’s great. Lifetime warranty and such.
And an upper like this:

Takes you to about $485 Plus a rear BUIS.
A buddy of mine stopped a ahole who broke into his house in 1986. One .22 in the thigh, shattered the idiot’s femur.
The guys at my range say the feds are about to outlaw the SSAR.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll check it and the company out. The price is right.
Holy Crap! I am amazed they let you shoot that indoors!
.308 indoors? Holy Crap!
Those things are cool.
I dont know how they can when they approved it.
What firearm fires that? It looks bigger than my .50cal Beowulf!
Even better!
Wow, that is an awesome weapons system. However it is way out of my budget.
I’d love to kick the tires on one though.
They said I could shoot my SSAR indoors too. Not tried it yet, emptying a mag in 3 seconds sounds expensive.
