1LtCAP 4,262 Posted January 23, 2018 2 grand for a gun with straight rifling to game the game and not be called a rifle, but not a shottie either? that won't be very accurate? they were kinda smart getting people all worked up into a frenzy before telling what it is........

This firearm uses straight rifling, imparting no spin on the projectile. It is designed for under 100 yard shooting, and may require proprietary ammo for best results: http://www.recoilweb.com/franklin-armorys-reformation-revealed-133042.html I see your point but on the flipside it appears to be a SPR for close encounters. what are the downsides to that? Thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sota 1,191 Posted January 23, 2018 me neither, but then I haven't thought about it for a bit. also, people need to define what they want from such a firearm anyways. 4- MOA @50 yds sounds bad, but is't the M1 the same? I say define the parameters of use before shit talking it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SBR (I assume that’s what you meant) are totally cool, but not necessary. Where the SBR shines is fighting in and around cars and adding a suppressor - and I don’t think adding a suppressor to a straight rifled 11.5” barrel is a good idea, unless you like baffle strikes on your can. I can do everything I do at work with an issued 11.5” barrel with a 16” overall barrel at home or in training. I can also engage targets past 100 yards with great accuracy with a 16” rifled barrel, something that this new firearm may not be capable of without specialized ammo - if you read the article, they have a photo of a projectile with stabilizing fins. Hmmmm.... I wonder how fast the proprietary ammo will eventually add up to cost more than the $200 tax stamp fees that this is supposed to save you over the lifetime of the weapon? Anyway..... The mission drives the gear train. I just don’t see a mission where this is the best option out there - other than sticking a finger in the ATF’s eye (a valid reason) and dropping twice the price of a standard AR for a less capable firearm. I mean, if you can drop $2k on this, then buy special proprietary ammo, why can’t you drop $1200 on a SBR and $200 on a tax stamp? I just don’t see it. Which means this will probably sell like hot cakes....... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pew Pew Plates 358 Posted January 23, 2018 It does fit a niche for us though. Currently, as a firearm, it does not seem to fit the NJ definitions of an assault rifle so is legal as is. That gets us the adjustable stock and threaded muzzle/any device we want on the muzzle short of a can. This is an improvement. Furthermore when S548 becomes law, you could still have this firearm. Meanwhile, semi-auto AR rifles will be basically illegal since you cant even have a pistol grip. I am not a lawyer, this is just my thought. How's this help? Trunk gun! For self defense, if you're taking shots at 100 yards, it's not really defense....unless you're an operator or something.... 4moa at 50 yards is 2", I think that's sufficient. I bet none of you can shoot a 2" group offhand with a service pistol at 50 yards! For a trunk gun in NJ it must be unloaded. This will load far faster than a shotgun. Handguns you can't drive around with. I think the niche is here in NJ if it is indeed legal and stays that way Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd rather have a 14.5 inch AR with a fixed stock and BCM muzzle device than this piece of crap. It will shoot like shit, keyhole at 50 yards which means the bullet is bleeding energy like a Honda towing an anchor and has no use other than to show your friends how cool you are. Get a quality AR and skip the gimmick. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was talking specifically about it being a good trunk gun here in NJ, I agree with you're quoted point but I wouldn't be warm and fuzzy driving around (and parking) daily with a prohibited firearm but everyone has different levels of risk they are willing to accept which makes this all very, very subjective.
