Though interesting thing: the designer of the Haenel gun is the former H&K designer.
Oh well. Maybe a new tender will not see the Rheinmetall/Steyr design drop out.

A bit heavy, but with a quick release barrel similar to the AUG.
Fun fact: barrel is the most expensive part of an AK so nobody ever bothered to make it changable.Quote:

AR and AUG had a baby. 4.2 is a might bit heavier than other stuff indeed.

im sure its a great rifle but all i see is that spring is longer than the gun
I see why they'd want to encapsulate everything into the upper, to maintain zero and all that.Quote:

But what's the deal with the safety? Unless it's meant to be vertical like typical AR platforms?
Also, can someone explain why companies make pins that aren't fully retained? Just seems like another small part begging to be dropped and lost.
Side rail retains zero like a champ, this is done to have a longer rail without a massive adapter or something. But they can't quite match the weight saves offered by a tinfoil dust cover.
Also this is a prototype, surely they will make captive pins if this goes anywhere.
The safety is a standard AK switch selector, they removed the rest of it (and the cover feature) for a smaller toggle then put in a port cover on spring flap.
I like how ZERO english language news sites or blogs or whatever picked up on MSBS Grot being the biggest ripoff ever.

Thanks to Covid there was no Finnish Brutality competition this year, at least not a large one. Instead they did a remote one, where you would replicate one of the stages.
Stage set up: two endpoints, fifteen meters apart, perpendicular to the target, which is fifty meters away. You start at one endpoint, drop prone, shoot the steel, pick up a 20kg kettle bell, throw it along the line between the points. Drop where the bell lands, shoot the steel, repeat. Once you get to an endpoint, move back to the other end. Three minutes total, each time reaching the end reduces the time. The lowest time wins. Also known as Kasarda Drill.
This video by Pew Pew Tactical explains it. His throwing sucks.

ACTUAL Wasteland edition, he did it twice in a full get up, once with an AK, once with a bolt action.

UK Vickers Gun Association did it as well. Instead of throwing a kettle bell, he's throwing Vickers ammo.
