New Shot Show S***

[Broken External Image]:

The M53 was hardly old tech, it was made at the same time as the 1911 which people still gush over, it kicked butt in the Navy test comparing it to the 1911 for durability and reliability. Accuracy was it's only fail point in the test but even they admitted they used an old gun for the test which had already been shot 5000+ times. It was noted to have less recoil than the 1911(both were chambered in 45). The only thing that killed it was the cost to tool it out.

But strangely enough the old M53 had insanely complex grip panels.

If this was a blow back design I would understand, but this is not outdated technology, it was just passed over since the war had ended and so had the funding.

No need to get uptight. :boink:
 
AAC finally has a physical version of the SR5 and SR7 that will run on 90t taper mounts

LAS VEGAS - Slide Fire Solutions LP is turning the small-arms market upside down. Literally.

The Moran, Texas-based company showed off a tripod-mounted accessory that radically speeds up the rate of fire on AR-style rifles and carbines in part by inverting the firearm.

Once mounted onto the device, or “bump sled” as the concept product is called, the rifle is fired with a twin-grip firing mechanism – similar to the World War II-era M2 Browning machine gun, known as the “Ma Deuce.” A thumb lever on the accessory activates the rifle’s trigger and the resulting recoil creates pressure to maintain a high rate of fire with stability and control.
