Guns you want to see made Pt. 2

[k9870]

they did, and all reports are good, they even come with the 38 conversion spring.

As to the heavy barrels, the medium contour fal was tested and hit sub moa with match ammo, the standard barrel was a 2+ inch gun. I think a heavy barrel does affect it, say all you want about real world applications and "good enough" but i want the best i can get, especially if i used it in 3 gun or other competitions.

Where'd you get that information?

[Rockwolf66]

I have a Chuck Taylor article form 2005 that details little tweeks to give a plane jane fixed stock FN FAL a less than 1 MOA accuracy.

The one big issue i have with the article is that the shot strings are only three shots which is too few for proper statistical accuracy.

Still it does go to show what you can do to improve a Stock FN FAL.

Ill have to check that article....too bad i dont really like chuck taylor.

my sources are fal files, arfcom, and other forums from range reports, and i think the other was a solder of fiction article.

S&W should make versions of their .45 pistols (such as the 4506, 945, and 4566) that accept 1911 magazines. they would sell alot better than the versions that require you to buy mags from S&W and S&W only

[k9870]

I though mec gar made mags for the smith series?

They should make a new 4506, with no mag disconnect, and a frame mounted safety so you have the smith dependability and durability and none of the bad stuff. But the whole world seems to want polymer these days....

I've never seen any mags for it other than factory

It would be nice if the safety wasn't also a decocker so it could go condition one

I just hate having a safety on the slide, I wouldnt have it on on a da/sa to begin with, but id hate to accidentally activate it racking the slide, i slingshot since most slide releases are too stiff/small.

I don't have that problem, I release the slide using both hands. One hand pulls the slide back while the other presses on the slide release. I have to do this because the slide release is too tough and the springs too heavy for me to push down the release with just my index finger
