    Those of you who have Rhodie Painted your pews...

    Think of the poor souls that painted their rifles in UCP. Grim.

    LCT teasing a FAL

    Think you might be quite close with that estimate. Expect it's RRP to be higher than the RPD and SVD. Assume they will do a polymer furniture model too. They could use very similar parts to the PKP.

    VFC showcasing their new GBBR AKS-74U

    A type III milled AK GBBR would certainly be an eye catcher.

    LCT teasing a FAL

    Seems like the next release after the East German AK, will be the PKM. Imagine the price and weight will be significant. They might show off some of their other upcoming releases at this month's MOA show.  The PKM will be there.

    Those of you who have Rhodie Painted your pews...

    Never saw the appeal of the obsession with NVA (both German and  North Vietnamese flavours).  They were Communist dictatorship states.  I'm only extracting the urine. Have had Strichtarn and Brushstroke kit in the past. Also +1 on avoiding Reddit for mental well being.

    RIP to the SCAR, FN Ceased Production.

    Exactly. From a customary glance of Wikipedia seems like the Belgians (very logical choice) and the Portuguese choose to make it their service rifle. The HK416 being adopted by a lot of the high speed folk didn't help things.

    RIP to the SCAR, FN Ceased Production.

    Slovenian Army can't catch a break. First the FN2000 and now the Scar.

    LCT M60 Series.

    Video showing off the M60. On the positive front, the battery storage looks better than I expected. On the other hand, the cardboard construction of the box mag and needing an Allen key to connect it would be a concern.

    LCT teasing a FAL

    Good catch on that. If it's the case will make it awkward from a performance standpoint. Also we seem to have a release date. Take it with a grain of salt, often ends up a month or two later before it's actually available. Still seems like it's this year, at least.

    Ever had a hop unit that doesn't fit?

    Had some unpleasant experiences with some hop up units in the past. Lonex AK hop unit that required filing and cutting to fit together. Required modification to assemble it and attach it to the barrel. Did fit in a Galil that was quite picky with hop chambers.  Then there was a LCT HK33 which I...

    VFC KS-1/L403A1 GBBR

    G&G had a RK replica in the past, so there might be hope with the various Scandi adoptions. A Sako or something like an IWI Arad would be a nice new replica. Scratch the AR but not quite itch.

    VFC KS-1/L403A1 GBBR

    We will have nice functioning MCX and KS-1 replicas. Then Project GrayBurn will decide to go with the Beretta or Sako offering.

    More blank firers being banned.

    Correct, it's described in the email as a "commercial decision" to discontinue their lines. If I wanted to be charitable, most of the offerings weren't on that home office list. However a certain design based on an Italian firm's products was included in the ban list, was among the offerings of...

    LCT M60 Series.

    One thing for a display piece, another for a skirmish. If the latter would definitely go for the aluminum model.  Will be curious to see opinions, particularly on the box mag.

    More blank firers being banned.

    That email from a retailer announcing a blank pistol clearance sale last month, makes a lot more sense now.
