I don't like AKs cause they jsut won't shoulder or point well for me, rock solid they are though. I don't like glocks for many reasons
1. Boring and Ugly 2. Really weird trigger, I prefer a DA/SA then SAO then DA wheelgun, DA (or HALF-double action, as glockers always correct me) comes dead last. 3. Unconfortable grip. 4. Poor factory barrels, all the accurate glocks I see have aftermarket barrels and for that money you can buy a sig. |

Of course, I can't imagine there are many Chauchats in armories, or movies... Quote:

I do really hate the grip, though. I have yet to handle or fire a Glock with a grip I liked. Even the supposedly-better SF Glocks still suck. Right now, they're about to come out with the 4th Gen styling which has a different texture, and this is supposedly going to make the grip more comfortable. I highly doubt it; what Glock really needs to do is change the cross-section of the grip so that it's more circular and less rectangular. As it is now (and as it's been for the last 25 years), the Glock's grip is basically not compatible with the contours of most human hands, especially mine. |

Actually the French Chauchats were alot more reliable than most people think. The problems really came in with the American model in .30-06 - too much cartridge for the gun.

There are a couple of Chauchats that I know of in the industry. |

That is true on the .30-06 model as it was not reliable as the French model. Pershing took away our Lewis Guns and issued French Chauchats to make the French happy. We could have used the Lewis instead of making a .30-06 Chauchats but did not due to politics.

The AR15 is the best rifle in the world. It's not going to change anytime soon because firearms mechanical limitation is near or at it limit. Quote:
If you're talking about the IAR program there are three companies that is on the finial list. Colt AR15 IAR rifle, HK416 IAR, and FN SCAR IAR version. The contract stated whoever the Marine choose, the manufacture will provided the rifles and price on the contract. The ACR is Bushmaster entry to the future weapon program. ACR was designed by Magpul and it was originally called Masada. Bushmaster bought the rights for the Masada and renamed it ACR. Bushmaster delay the production of the rifle in order to figure out the requirements for the future weapon program. The Bushmaster ACR use an AR18 action and is not an AR15. I think HK416 will be in it. I am not sure if FN will reenter the SCAR in new competition. Colt will put their new version of the AR15. Quote:
Glock and 1911 dominate US handguns sells and completions. Glocks and 1911 are use the most in completions because of the triggers. Both are light and has less travel. Last edited by jdun; 04-21-2009 at 01:05 AM. |

RIFLE...not handgun. The 1911s are one of the best handguns in the world. Right now, I'd take an XD.
AR-15 designs are pretty good.
