An excellent rifle, but confused by the words about "defenders of freedom around the world"

The most important thing is to shoot the same way. And knowing Amerov, their appearance is always deceiving))). They have a beautiful M4 and Aircraft and Hamera. Only now all this shoots, flies and rides badly ...

[танк]

And when did the A4s get bad MXNUMX, planes and hamers ??? cheers-patriotism, does the mind overshadow?
The worst thing is to underestimate the enemy!

And when did amers get their bad M4s, planes and hamers?

Well, yes, the Raptors are trouble-free planes, m4 in Avgan, their soldiers do not change their AKs, and Hamers without that go straight for months to ride ....
Regarding the patriotism ury, that would not be blamed for this anymore, I will say this ..... We are before Amer even before China. And soon we will lag behind China at such a pace.

What are you serving in Afghanistan? Do you personally inspect Americans about how they shoot and ride? Have you heard tales about how amers throw M16 (M4) and take Kalash? Especially about Vietnam there are a lot of such tales, and it was just in Vietnam that only a complete stupid person could do this, since in the jungle the shooting was often conducted to the sound, that is, it was easy to get a bullet from your own people starting to shoot from a Kalash. Ammunition for captured weapons by the way where to get it? M16 in various versions is operated by more than 80 countries of the world, do you think it would be as bad as they say, would it become so popular?

[Gregazov]

Most likely, Afghanistan was meant not by today's, but by the 80s. The same exchanges took place in Vietnam. M4 high-precision rifle, only the bullet is light and ricochet from twigs, etc.

2,45 Iraqi soldiers, not American, amers go with their own, amers sometimes take Kalash with them, but as a second weapon.

There is also US ARMY. And in Iraq and AFgano, for them it’s a blessing to get paid.

[Hon]

Yes, the Amer soldier posed coolly with Kalash. In nete full of photos and videos where amers with PPSh.

[Dilshat]

It’s necessary to think. In the USA there are a lot of private companies and shops where you can sell almost any small arms. And they will upgrade according to your wishes. And no matter how marvelous the order is made. Any whim for your money. It turns out in the United States the goddess is the cult of the golden calf and the weapon cult .

[Apostle]

... protecting freedom around the world. "

Yeah, they defend freedom, they defend freedom in Syria, they defend it in Iraq, Afghanistan is in doubt, the defenders are bad.
And the rifle is certainly decent, a lot of plastic and super-realism, but I think this does not affect the quality of fire! Therefore, the norms of a rifle are what you need to protect "freedom".

[Cat]

If you distract from politics:
I wouldn’t drag such a thing. Big one. Gentle optics - you are probably aware that this is not very healthy. To clean it after any marches - mother, give me birth back! Again, adjusting the sights is not for the faint of heart, even many specialists do not get tortured with this, but they fuse all techies: you’re smart, you and ... fuck. Well, and electronics, which, if present, is good in certain conditions, I personally prefer something simpler.

[Dilshat]

Well, in my amateurish view, the helicopter (tiltrotor) quickly flew in, dropped the snipers. We shot the snipers, set targets for aviation, artillery. We saw how the targets were hit. We went to the point, quickly flew away. At the base they removed the "wear-related" rifle parts gunsmiths for maintenance, they received new ones in return. Or they simply handed over rifles for maintenance, in exchange they received new ones (past maintenance). Who knows how the special forces are served in the US Army, tell us. It will be interesting to listen to.

[svp67]

But is it not time for our armourers something similar, it’s only better to imagine.

[seller trucks]

That's exactly the same mine, only smaller, but different

The Ministry of Internal Affairs said it was ready to accept, but only if the release of ammunition would be established in Russia.
There is a cartridge like "magnum", which is the problem.

.308 wines are made in Russia, but quite disgusting, .300 wines mage and .338 paw mage are not made in general
and while private owners are not allowed, our cartridges will only be suitable for machine guns

[танк]

ORSIS is issued only in a civilian version!

[Garysit]

The trusses of ORSIS are made by American technology from their steels on their machines let it be known to you !!!!!

[jasper]

So what? what is the problem then? or do you think that high-quality rifles need millions? Isn’t it a problem that the weapons of high-precision lovers in Russia are an order of magnitude better than the army sniper?

[Joker]

The trusses of ORSIS are made by American technology from their steels on their machines let it be known to you !!!!!

Let it be known to YOU ​​that the technologies for the production of trunks are the same everywhere, differ only slightly, and there is no American way and does not exist, there is a generally accepted process. Are the cuts everywhere the same, or are the Americans twisting them in the opposite direction? All the salt in the equipment, the better it is, the closer the work to GOST, that's all the differences. Equipment for the word from ORSYS is not the newest. The task of the manufacturer is to make the parts for the weapon as accurate as possible, the mechanics of rifles with the longitudinal slide are the same everywhere, everything differs slightly. This is about technology.
As for steel, Orsis buys American blanks for the simple reason that they are CHEAPER than ours when purchased in small batches, and not because they are somehow better.
Machines really foreign.
The result is no need to overestimate the ability of the American arms manufacturer. Their advantage is only in machine tools. If we consider Remington specifically, then there is no advantage over our rifles that are in service with ergonomics, quality, optics, cartridge, in mechanics. They have excellent rifles, but they don’t have to sing their praises, which is not something extraordinary and breakthrough.

A good trophy will be.

Mosin rifle - the first (sawn-off). AK - many one with a silencer and zinc cartridges for it. Several pistols, sabers, daggers. Particularly valuable: various portable radio stations and recharging devices "from armor" for batteries to the NSPU.
Foreign sniper weapons did not come across.
"As a keepsake" except for the fragments, nothing remained.

That is, the presence of high-precision sniper weapons in the Czechs and the absence of them in ours did not bother you?

Well this is apparently a translation problem.

[Hon]

Well, they accept modifications of M16, it is not much younger than AK, and M14 is still used.

[Joker]

and in Russia they adopted another modification of the AK

Are you talking about AK-12? In my great machine, let's say finally finished the AK. Automation is new, the trunk is new, the cover of the receiver is rigidly fixed, the telescopic butt, the ability to install a body kit, interchangeable barrels, a caliber of 7.62 and 5.45 to choose from. What more do you need? Laser combat?

[Basarev]

Yeah ... More ugly rifle still need to look.

[faint27]

And I like her on the contrary! How many people, so many opinions

[alone]

did you call the rifle ugly just because it’s Americanos? no matter who does what, good should be called good. I personally have never heard anything bad about Kalash. Even from the Americans.

[xetai9977]

Weapons are made for the battlefield, and not participate in a beauty contest.

[Serg 122]

Does one interfere with the other ?!

[King]

Weapons are created not for beauty but for combat missions.

[Andrey Peter]

Nothing special, the only thing is that transformer.

[Double major]

Nothing ... For each of their shots we’ll answer with a hundred of ours, from Kalash ... And we’ll throw a grenade ... An old, reliable F-1 ...

[Praetorian]

Blah blah blah .. And a hat, a hat of them !!!

[jasper]

yeah for one and a half kilometers

[Basarev]

The weapon I called ugly is not because it is American - their M24 rifle is very pretty - just the MSR is really ugly. Compared to it, even the OTs-48K is a top model!

[Alexey Prikazchikov]

Ball) Would make our modular sniper complex in different calibers. Well, it's cheaper than having a bunch of rifles of different systems, but you need a lot of trunks.

[Nikolski1973]

Well, well, where are our gunsmiths, or will our SVD army be saved this way? Although the special forces would have realized such a complex.

[Midshipman]

SVD is an army rifle, and for special forces we already have ORSIS T 5000 with which our team takes first places in special forces competitions

[DuraLexSedLex.]

you know the rumble bolts from rems are awesome at the very 700th I’m not overjoyed) Well, what’s modular, it’s kaneshn, it’s not such a whip, but when I go to another trunk I’ll need to see the fire again, but the idea is good) Knowing the quality of these products I can guarantee - the vinar is good)

[Just]

Our Orsis, I mean civilian hunting and sports samples, there will be better remington. And at times.

look here all http://www.orsis.com/production/catalog/982/

[zennon]

modular, this is kaneshn, not such a crap,

How to say. Practice shows that a station wagon is always worse than a specialist. Again, where are the trunks to store? A sighting. Yes and a dog is heavy! But really beautiful. I don’t understand, she has folding bipods?

[Just]

For those who do not know about modularity.
After each change of the barrel will have to shoot a new rifle. No one will do this. Everything is much simpler - they will order vintars with different trunks, but each with one trunk.
In my opinion, this whole gimp with different trunks is designed to further promote this model on the civilian market outside the United States. Because Replicas of army snipers are prohibited for U.S. citizens.

[jasper]

not a fact, depending on how the scope is mounted, the blazers do without it

[Nitarius]

It confuses only ONE WHERE THEM 5150 modular sniper rifles with 4,6 million ammunition.
Which WAR is going to AMER ?? DON'T WE ARE AT A GUEST ??

Do not worry, it’s they who are preparing to shoot, when the United States begins to crack at the seams.

[vkrav]

Yeah ... I went to work once - take it to an authorized service center for cleaning and adjustment ...

[albanech]

Sorry for being rude, but listening to moans and simple sobs is tired - our Kalashnikov has always been the best in the world and remains the same, and as for all this "f * ck", it is not a weapon from a "fantasy film" that will help a fighter survive on the battlefield, and the art of using it. We can fight and win even without these "guns"! Once again I will note that there is no need to praise other people's "guns" - there is little sense from this, but it is necessary to create our own - accessible to everyone: from private to general. Stop looking and selling prototypes abroad! We need to supply and provide the army with everything it needs! We must prepare fighters, not cannon fodder!

[Thunderbolt]

This is not rudeness, but a distinct comment А

Quote from albanech

no need to praise other people's "guns"

It was an attempt to get in touch with reality as it is. Not to pay for ignorance and patriotic dogmas with your own blood is the level of a real pro. He has little hope when he comes into contact with a real enemy. and the answer.

[jasper]

do you call with hats? or drekoley? a sniper is needed and the corresponding weapon is the same
and modularity, that modularity, we also have such rifles, everything is not indisputable, helps to choose the option for each type of "work" but also complicates the weapon, although blazers have been used for 20 years as hunters all over the world

[vkrav]

We can fight and win even without these "guns"

Exactly ... I would like to note that in the Second World War, what we have, that the Germans, the main sniper rifles were bolts that had been in service for 40-50 years - Mosin 1891 and Mauser k98 ... "Obsolescence" in combat qualities is not it really affected ...

[o.lazarev64]

Everything is beautiful. But take any Russian weapons, so there are no keys, no screws or bolts. And in battle, losing them is very easy. Time will tell.

[Garysit]

In battle, you can lose the ax and break the sledgehammer on the opponent’s head ...

[serezhasoldatow]

Nah, you won’t go to battle with such a toy. More like an advertisement. Maybe the truth behind life, but crawled with her through the mud and shoot exactly at 910 meters. You will scrub the sight for half an hour. Not impressed. She lacks beauty, which is inherent in any reliable weapon.

[kostya_a]

US specialists have the best of everything, but why do they mess up periodically!

I don’t know, I don’t know ... Remington has had serious quality problems lately, even small deliveries to England have been disrupted, I have felt on myself.

Great rifle for shooting at a shooting range. Well, or Papuan from the Hamera to shoot. Not suitable for war.
