I figured it might be worthwhile to document the process of putting together my clone of Randy Shughart’s M14 from 1993 Mogadishu…so here we go.
The Winchester 1866 was chambered for the .44 Henry rimfire cartridge, like the Henry rifle before it. Before too long, however, centerfire ammunition began to take over as the best and most common type of […]

While you do martial cosplay your country is invaded across its non-existent border, a president is in effect appointed and the deep state pursue lawfare and assassination against the opposition. Hope you feel heroin playing Black Hawk Down. Mama Kamala will be confiscating your war toys anon
hey a russian troll! cool. talking about a non existent border; how is kursk doing?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convair_XFY_Pogo That might be alright, shrunk as a drone… Take off loiter around, but it then has a rocket engine; basically a flying/floating rpg 7 round, might work. 2kg sort of, modern batteries… Aiming, no; a flying wall of floating warheads… All go rocket at once in a certain direction. Airships, flying bum the modern one… But releases we drones instead of biplanes like the U.S one was intended for. Future warfare, will be “fun”

Venezualean drug gangs take over parts of Aurora Colorado and you worry about Russkies? Cowardly cuckold you.
I quite like this M14, M16 hybrid kind of contraption: https://www.forgottenweapons.com/when-m14-meets-m16-the-fort-ellis-xr-86/
I’d like to try it in 7.62 Nato, but instead of extra mass around the barrel “To replace the delay, of the direct impingement; mitigated usually by the expansion of gas within the carrier, due short turning circle of the multi lugged bolt.” with a spring and (Contraption) aye, essentially an AR recoil spring and buffer; however said buffer is hollow to fit around the barrel (Spring to fit also) and what happens is: The rod, impacted by the M14 piston interacts with said “Buffer” design aforesaid “Around the barrel” quite… In that it squishes the spring against the front of the trunnion, indeed… But! Check this, it releases said spring/buffer thing “Shape eh, around the barrel.” after compressing it, yes. It does this via a simple tilt device attached to said rod… It moves back about 3″ then a hinge now attached to said rod… Bends via passing over a pin through the handguard (On the return, it is sloped at the front to interact with a corresponding / towards the gas block to return it inline with the piston.) aye “Following me?” Why? Well, the spring replaces the need for mass as above & doubles as a recoil counter balance I.e. It is timed “The buffer thing to shoot forward and smack the gas block” at! The point the gun moves back Ak 107 style, all within the circular handguard.
Just to see if it helped in 7.62mm If so, good; nice layout, sort of a bullpup.
Rudimentary, yet to draw Mk1 on the back of a cig packet; but I think I know what I mean. Quite good, basically. Not drank for a week, not productive, he he.
It would be along those lines; not precise, rudimentary. BANG!!! Pop, whack, squish, ping/bullet exit, repeat. Inline stock etc, he was probably thinking 7.62mm .556mm prototype… Perhaps.
Nice video/gun, he he. I like those wee Soccom M14 things. So much so, I could live with having anyone as President even Boris Johnson; as i’d be like “My wee M14 is so sexy, I love you.” take my AR.
