That said, you would get more velocity out of a longer barrel, but given the relatively limited range of the 223/556 round, it's not that big of a deal, IMO.

That makes a lot of sense, thank you. I never really looked into it that much.

You sir are correct, I meant 95 but fat fingered it.

I'll try to dig up some photos of my friend's guns. He's got an ACR and a Kriss Vector. I absolutely LOVE his ACR. That gun is amazing.

How do you like your Five-Seven? I've considered one forever but am weary to spend that much on something that's not another 1911. What's your favorite out of all the ones pictured here?

I'll post up a new pic of my handguns in a few days, but my current favorite is a HK P30LS. But I'll be getting an P226 Elite Dark soon, so we will see. |

I've one of these
[ame]http://youtu.be/Fjt6eVIxukU[/ame] Accurate enough that I'm popping heads off dandelions at around 100yrds. I was doing full bore shooting as well with a local club. At the time I was using the club guns and favouring 7.62s (all bolt action since that is all you're basically allowed in the UK). I was looking at getting a firearms license to allow me to buy my own rifle but it was during the financial crisis and having gone to zero overtime and a 10% pay cut I basically decided it wasn't worth the expense. I did some serious shooting in France before that though on a week training course. Basic gun safety, principles of marksmanship and then training on M4s, AK74s, Remington 700, L1A1 slr, glock 17, browning high power, sig P226, S&W .357 magnum Absolutely cracking time had. Particularly the pistols since those are a definite no no in the UK |
