      Bayonet is not a problem on the sks. Only mod they did when imported was pin the mag to 5 rounds. If you buy a Garand it can still hold 8. Pistol caliber carbines hold up to 10 depending on the mag it uses. Bolt guns can hold whatever unless it uses the ar mag then you can only have 5. Unless you have an ar pistol mag then it's 10. Or the beyowolf mag....... I have a headache now.

    Most rifles that had been designed after WW2 in an intermediate caliber are modern enough as far as shooting is concerned. AK, AR and AUG over time only really needed a few rails installed and sights improved, but that's all.
    AR made in 50s, became an M-16 had been essentially rebarrelled, had its receiver top modified and its furniture replaced. Same goes for the AK and AUG.

It's been over 7 years since then and only this year did Eotech finally settle the class-action lawsuit because of their temperature shifting Eotechs. Back then everyone trusted Eotech and they put all the blame on the rifle Vertical stringing after extended firing sessions does happen with all the pencil barrels though.

      Yes the scar 16 is overpriced...
      For a crappy trigger, A2 pistol grip and plastic and aluminum construction...I don’t hate the 16s but when you think about it there is no “service rifle” today built like the 550 with the exception of possibly the swedish AK-5
      It terms of reliability of course you can break extractors and piston assembly springs just like any other Piston operated rifle.
      I’ve never heard of the 550/551 having reliability issues for over 20 years.... remember it’s basically just a refined AK operating system.
      The shorter 552/553 can have short stroking issues if you use underpowered ammo which can be remedied by adjusting the gas valve.
      I agree it should not be on this list because the average dumbass Wants the popular rifles
      The SIG SAN 55X series of rifles should be on a list of “best made” service rifles.
      I challenge anyone break one down and disagree...
      Yes built better than HKs even HK admitted in rifle trials the the 55X is a superior weapon in every way except cost.

      They are pretty good rifles. I don't have 1,000s of rounds down range on them, but I like them. Most people's issues with them are the price of mags and less than perfect accuracy. I have no problem with either, since it is just a plinking rifle for me, but I know it can get the job done if I need it for defense.

    • @codyforsythe2138
      @codyforsythe2138 6 лет назад +11

      Exactly Jacob. People like Wendell don't understand this whatsoever. You have a platform that has been out for almost 60 years, hundreds of companies producing them to the point where you can pick one up for $400, yet they compare new designs to the AR and expect them to cost $400. From a manufacturing and business standpoint, it will never happen. It cost money to bring new product to market and the cost is passed on to the customer. ARs are the most devalued rifle platform there is right now. Its a great platform, and it is a platform in which most of everything else is compared to. But its a highly devalued platform, an anomaly that only occurs with the AR here in the States.

    • @easonridge5961
      @easonridge5961 6 лет назад +1

      Cody Forsythe Cody Forsythe I don’t see the downside to this. I understand it’s cheap because of how overproduced they are, it’s an old design, and the R&D is already done. The result is a widespread market to support a great platform that you can acquire for prices as low as $350. Im sure once the military changes to another rifle and caliber, that’s what will be prolific. In the meantime, I can’t justify spending $1500+ on a rifle that doesn’t do anything significantly better than a decent $600 AR, nor does it have the aftermarket support.

    • @codyforsythe2138
      @codyforsythe2138 6 лет назад +7

      There is not downside at all from the point that we get $350 ARs. Its great. The downside comes to new companies and new products. We all want to see new guns being made. However, any new rifle that comes to market that costs more than $1200 gets flamed and criticized for not being a $350 AR. That's my point. You can't bring a new rifle to market that's not an AR for AR prices. It doesn't work like that. So when people like Wendell make the comment that the guns in the video are for people that want to spend 2-3 times more than what an AR costs for a gun that's just an AR alternative, that isn't correct. We don't pay high prices for guns because we have money to blow, we pay the higher prices because I support new product and don't want 50 ARs in my collection. Yes, if you have one rifle and all you care about is fit, form, and function, the $350 AR is the best value. If you however are much further along than that and like collecting and shooting different platforms, that's where other non-AR guns come into play. Its not all about the most bang for your buck with everybody. I think some people's heads would explode if they jumped into the HK forums and saw what people are willing to pay for certain items or jumped into the AK forums and saw the market for collectible AK mags. The gun community is more than $350 ARs.

    • @shutokou2099
      @shutokou2099 6 лет назад +5

      Some people also do not like a DGI (direct gas impingement) firearm. It is not reliable, as no firearm designed to inject combustion gas and carbon from the round directly into its chamber ever could be. Put a couple hundred rounds through it, do not clean it, let it sit for a month, and then try it again. You'll come into issues, but many other semi auto designs will not.
      In combat, you can't always keep your rifle meticulously clean and well lubricated between usage, this was proven in July of 2007 in the U.S. Army's limited competition between the M4 carbine, FN SCAR, HK416, the Robinson XCR (which was disqualified on a technicality), and the HK XM8. Each weapon fired 6,000 rounds in an extreme dust environment, with the XM8 scoring the best, with only 127 stoppages in 60,000 total rounds, the FN SCAR Light had 226 stoppages, while the HK416 had 233 stoppages. The M4 carbine scored "significantly worse" than the rest of the field with 882 stoppages.
      Gas piston, as well as other designs like H&K's older delayed blowback roller lock, are infinitely more reliable in the field and under adverse conditions. DGI is a poor design choice for anything except a range toy.

To be honest though, for the average Joe, an AR of "almost" any make will do the job just as well as an HK416. The HK416 is for the true professional (we're talking operators), who will accept no substitutes in performance and modularity.

    The Australian Military uses the Steyr, and there are a few gripes I have, it's not ambidextrous, unless you like brass in your cheek. No fire selector, just pull the trigger more - in a high stress environment this can be bad, and if you don't have the single sot lock out pin out, or it gets pushed back in.
    In the Army our standard rifle is the 20" barrel, which makes for excellent accuracy and grouping, and I never really noticed any rounds being thrown by a hot barrel, although we did use the heavy barrels.

    As a knife guy, everything Microtech makes is about triple $$ what it should cost. They live off their name.

    They left the last part of the title out but it was still implied, the title originally said "Top 5 guns that are not ARs because ARs are superior"

    I am glad you guys brought up the heating issue changing the point of aim impact. Most do not realize the expansion coefficients between plastics and and metals. Aluminum has a different expansion coefficient, same thing for plastics (or composite) and steel. I favor steel its the real McCoy aluminum is good too. But plastics well too unpredictable in terms of expansion. If P expends at X and steel expands at Y, and Al, expands at Z you will have a totally weird and strange points of impact. The M-16 is good because the barrel is pretty much isolated from the rest of the weapon. You start mixing the materials in terms of structure you will get one screwy accuracy. A single material weapon in terms of running gear would by far be best. Further just to give you a bit more of a headache care in design for accuracy has to do in terms of which part expands faster and which part contract faster as they all have direct impact on accuracy. If one designs the weapon where the barrel and sights are isolated from all the other stuff its possible to have a great accuracy in an inexpensive weapon. Its the old adage if you design it right from the beginning.... it will be as cheap or cheaper to make than creating fixes or modifications later. All that needs to be done is pay attention to the characteristics of the material and design it accordingly. With a simple CAD design this stuff should be easy to do on the computer before any metal get cut. I hope I just told everybody that makes guns how to do it right, so we don’t have to suffer through expensive weapons not being accurate.

    My favorite "not an AR" is the FAMAS. I really like having a high rate of fire if I choose to, and the shoulder mag, is a personal favorite of mine. Very compact, and quite accurate too. The recoil is very manageable, and the burst is really nice. And the way it looks is just terrific imo. Big issue though, its just not available for civilians

    The H&K 93 is a good rifle if you don't plan to recover your brass for re-loading because it ejects spent cases into orbit and the fluted chamber does a real number on the cases even if you were able to recover them (once they re-enter from orbit).

    I think the problem with "not an AR" is that they are trying to beat the AR's weight and they do that by using pencil barrels instead of a gov or socom profile

    Steyr Aug for me thanks. Full-length barrel in a bullpup configuration combines the best of a full size assault rifle with the compact utility of a carbine, but without all the drawbacks of a carbine. The US move from the M16 to the M4 is in many ways a backward step

    My grandfather had an original Stoner 63 but when he went to a nursing home, my aunt took all his guns to Colt and had them melted down. I was and still am very upset with that. Guns should stay in the family
