[#1bambam]

[SGT_Kramer]

Lets make this more fun and do 240B vs RPD.

 

[#1bambam]

RPK vs SAW

 

[#1bambam]

RPG vs bazooka.

 

[SGT_Kramer]

battel rifle would be more M1 Garand, M14 , FAL, HK91 >>>>A battle rifle is a military service rifle that fires a full power rifle cartridge, such as 7.62x51mm NATO. While the designation of battle rifle is usually given to post-World War II select fire infantry rifles such as the H&K G3, the FN FAL or the M14,[1] this term can also apply to older military bolt-action or semi-automatic rifles such as the Mosin-Nagant, Mauser 98k, Lee-Enfield or the M1 Garand.

anyone want to make a 9mm vs .45 thread?

 

[SGT_Kramer]

Assult rifle would be full auto AK, Burst AR, Semi versions are simple sporter models.

Thank you for your infomative answer.

yeah but it's hard to find a glock chambered in .44 special

 

[#1bambam]

have both love both don't see why there's an argument

might as well start a ford vs chevy debate while we're at it

Because this is a gun fourm.Better than arguing about politics or religon....That and its easy to get AR owners riled up.

 

[SGT_Kramer]

If I could own one in full auto configuration hands down I'd want the AK. If not blasting full auto I'd prefer AR accuracy. I think the M16A4 with 3 round burst is a more practical weapon and is closer to what you would want from a battle rifle then the AK.

 

[SGT_Kramer]

Both are a compomise if ya wanna be a tough guy need a Garand ,Fal, M1A ,HK91 in that order

 

[Leonidas]

Don't forget the .50-90 Sharp's

Assult rifle?

Yes. An Assault rifle is (By definition) a Select fire, Intermediate round firing weapon.

Battle rifles are pretty much .308 and up.
(7.5 Etc also, but there's not much of them...)

Once you take away full auto fun switch all you have is a sporter rifle not a assult rifle no matter what the media would like you to think.

Most of the time it's a AK-47 machine gun sniper rifle.

How is this?

1 round on target, one round high, but on target, 3rd round misses. (If you don't know what you are doing)
If you DO know what you are doing... you can get whatever you want out of a FA.
The 3 shot Burst was the beginning of the modern attempt to make hardware replace training.

If you release it quickly (I usedta could get single shots out of the M249 SAW) your next trigger pull gets you the remainder of the 3 round burst (So if the first time is 2 rounds, the second is one, before resetting to 3 rounds again)

As to this 240, RPD etc...

PKM is THE BEST general Purpose MG out there.


END OF DISCUSSION!
(Few with beltfed experience will argue with me....)

I would seriously considering trading my left nut for one.

I've searched, so far as I can see, there are no Pre 86's...
