I think I'm going to get one of the GSG STG 44's or MP40's. Those things look sweet in the review videos I've watched. I'm a big fan of the WW2 era guns.

I have one of the STG44's, get it, it's sweet. Very fun to mess around with. Even comes in a wooden crate, it's packaged perfect.

I'm glad to hear that from an unbiased source. I love the wooden crate it comes in. Where did you buy yours? I've never ordered a gun online and can't seem to find one in a store around here.

Also, did you see the MP40 they're making in 9mm? Supposed to come out in 2016.

I got mine from a local store here Birmingham Pistol Wholesale.

Check out gunbroker.com buying a firearm online is easy, just contact the shop you want to have your gun shipped to, they will handle the ffl stuff for you, for a small fee, usually around $20-$35.

Yes, indeed i have. I'll be buying one of those as well.

Buy it and never look back. Should be able to find one for around $600ish.

Wow. I overpayed for my S&W in that case. $699.

Still not a bad price.

I'm very interested in this.

Appears to be some proprietary parts. I like the CS of DD, but they are pricey.

For that kind of money, I'd check into the M&P10 and accessorize it however you want. It's a standard midlength action so you can use most of the AR15 aftermarket parts.

Or just go with an Armalite and never look back

 

[Grand Vol]

Or this one DTH, but I suspect that rifle is hotter than a waterfront hooker on payday.

ARMSLIST - For Sale: Knights KAC SR-25 APC Precision SR25

From what I've gathered through my research on the ar10, the weak points are the extractor and ejector. Pretty much standard on an ar platform though. DD has a duel ejector, I find that interesting.

My main interest in the DD is the weight, DD is known for making some incredibly light rifles. I don't mind the recoil so much, as long as I can stay on target. At the end of the day, it's all about controlling the recoil impulse.

GV, I think you're right. That rifle may be just a tad warm lol
The thing with knights is, they're heavy as all hell. Lol

I'm not leaving the M14 platform, I just like new things and would like to see how the DD would compete against my current rifles.

If you do go with an AR-10, I'd suggest this aftermarket piece:

Heavy Buffers | Products | .308 Carbine

Works like a champ.

Cool, thanks.

 

[Grand Vol]

Cool, thanks.

I've got kind of a weird setup on my AR-10 carbine. I've got the Slash's HB with a rifle length spring and the PWS FCS30 muzzle brake. It works perfectly fine with the 16 inch upper, but prohibits bolt lack back on the 20 inch heavy barrel setup I use with the lower. No big deal though since I'm not using it in a "tactical" mode anyway.

The brake/spring/HB combo smooths the recoil right out on the carbine, but the folks to the left and right of me aren't happy with the deafening noise and concussion from the brake.

I ordered an STG44 today. Pretty stoked about it.

I also remember when that would cost you about $1200 along with a case of ammo and some stripper clips.

Yep, as well as $125 Chinese AK's.

I actually had my local pawn shop order it. I knew they had carried GSG before, so I figured it was an easy thing for them to get. Not to mention I recently bought that 65' PPK from them for $1400, so I figured they'd make it happen for me lol.

Great! I'm sure you'll be very pleased with it. I love mine. If you've not handled one before, I think you'll find the weight surprising.

Note: A standard K98 sling is the proper sling for it. Really sets it off.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Here is mine.

 

[VolAllen]

Here is mine.

Looks great! And the thing gets awesome reviews. I think I'm going to rough mine up a little to give it a nice vintage look. I'll post pics when I'm finished.
