Picking up an AR-15 here pretty soon so I can more effectively deal with a fuckload of wild hogs that have set up on my property. Might see about having some fun with'm by setting up some tannerite traps, but that seems like a hassle so I might just get a drop trap or some other dumb shit. Every time you mention them, you remind me of this song: And AR-15 hell yeah!

Anybody else think AR15s are way overrated? IMO, if it wasn't for their adoption by the US Armed Forces, they would be a blip on anyone's radar. I'll take an AK any day of the week.

ARs are incredibly customizable and their ammo is widely available due to the military using 5.56 I'd personally prefer an AK under normal circumstances as well, but the AR's popularity makes sense.

dem Murcans and deir fookin obsession with gunz Dem Czechs, too. Seriously, assault rifles are legal here, as long as they're stripped of their full auto mode. AKM? AK-74? Sa vz 58? All assault rifles, but if you find a semi-only variant, you're perfectly fine! Anybody else think AR15s are way overrated? IMO, if it wasn't for their adoption by the US Armed Forces, they would be a blip on anyone's radar. I'll take an AK any day of the week. I'm an HK guy myself, though when I was chosing my airsoft weaponry, I did think long and hard about their real life counterparts. Hence AK74 won. HKs aren't cheap, replica or the real deal.

Select fire with one of the options being full auto is a necessary requirement for something to be considered an assault rifle.
I get your point, but it just triggers my gun autism tbh since the media over here constantly refers to these things as "assault rifles" when they're fucking not

You play airsoft too? Awesome! I tend to choose my guns the same way, with some exceptions. Always keep at least one AK around though, right now it's a Hungarian AMD-65.

Also Czech, Norway, Switzerland and Austria are not in Europe. European countries dislike guns. The first gun I ever shot was Grandpa's 98, I missed the shit out of that moose. I was such a shitty shot when I first started despite excellent instruction(I mean for fucks sake the man killed Communists, French, Brits and Poles for five years) and sadly I did not live up to expectations at the tender age of six. ._. I'll speak of this only because it was over three decades ago and half the involved parties are deceased but...it wasn't strictly legal. You can have bolt and semi action rifles in Norway for hunting and sport shooting and such...but they have to be registered. ._. This gun was a memento of service that got carried across the border, and it like the Luger was never "supposed" to be there. All the same though. I'm glad my first kill came on a rifle that shall we say...saw some prior usage. *wink wink nudge*

Norwegian moose are big for those unaware.
Far larger and heavier than American deer.

It's one of the few firearms you can legally own in the UK - as long as it's a .22 variant. Though you can own a friggin' great sniper rifle if you want.

Speaking of Austrian, I contemplated posting this in the history thread, but was on the fence if it'd fit there, but it fits just fine on here fortunately; here's the post-war Austrian update of the MG42, the MG74. It can be fired without the gunner exposing himself, which is pretty neat. I served in the Armed forces, saw the MG74 once but could not fire it unfortunately. At one point the Austrian military had the best machine gun and the best battle rifle in their arsenal. The STG58 FN-FAL was a wonderful piece of hardware. Here is Hickok shooting a FN-FAL Israeli variant:

Okay, so I was fairly off-base in my gun description last night, now that I went and took pictures. LMAO It's a sub nose. I'd have sworn it wasn't, but I was wrong. Not a Taurus, it's Rossi... although those are made by Taurus, IIRC? M88 .38 Special, according to the barrel. At least I remembered correctly in that it's a 5-shot. That's the important part, right? Remembering how many bullets you have? LMAO

It comes from Sturmgewehr, which literally translates as assault rifle. I think people just never thought about changing the name for an entire class of weapons, since the original is so widely used. I know you're right, but this has always triggered me since "sturm" on it's own translates to "storm", so it's literal translation should be "storm rifle". edit: Oh yeah guns. I don't own any currently, but used to shoot competitively when I was younger, around 15-16. Been thinking about getting back into it in the last few months, but I've switched over to a different competitive scene and I don't feel like cutting back on that one.

My little 22 precision rifle. Love the near complete absence of noise and recoil in combination with very high accuracy. A very stealthy rifle. With subsonic ammunition the shot sounds like gently clapping your hands. At 50 meters its near silent.

Yeah, that's the word-for-word. Contextual translation can be assault, though.

I can't believe nobody has mentioned this channel yet, by the way. www.youtube.com/user/ForgottenWeapons/videosThe dude isn't supremely knowledgeable on firearms from what I can tell, but he's definitely not stupid, and he does a good job of explaining what's going on with each weapon he features.
