      The bubba'd AR with a piston sucks, it's heavier and beats itself to death
      If you're not shooting it underwater it's a downgrade in every aspect to a normal AR. KAC Mod 2 is the best AR

      Let me guess, you adopted it because special forces want to use the cool guns that killed bin laden and shit?

      Also frick HK. Making a piston AR for dumb burgers who want piston ARs is one thing, but offering it to the german army when they just developed a better and cheaper rifle for the job is just treason.

        no the previous president choose HK purely for political reasons cuz muh Merkel's girl wiener or something
        i fricking hate this gun especially when you're used to the famas
        hk416F is nowhere near an actual improvement and the govt bought the cheap ass ones that end up like scrap metal after 10k shots, special forces get the actual expensive version, yes im seething.

    They're overgassed for reliability and HK never developed a mid length gas system so the longer barrel versions beat themselves to death faster than you'd like.

      it's a venting piston so "gas system length" logic doesn't transfer from the AR.

        Could have sworn I read somewhere that the Marine's IARs had short bolt lifespans because of the gas system.

    ive got a sig 516 and i can say that it recoils slightly heavier than an upper-mid tier AR, the only thing that saves it is the adjustable gas. SSGP rifles make sense for militaries because it means less routine maintenance. other than that, piston guns are going to have more recoil and suppress worse than DI guns.

    More recoil yes with the over gassed short stroke, specially so with the old buttstock in your pic, that shit really sucked having it not flush in your shoulders.

    Another note is the weight HK is way too heavy for what it is, mother fricker is like 10 lbs with a mag. My fricking KAC is like 8 lbs with mag, lights, laser, foregrip and my handy dandy tactical dildo with a fox tail.

    That's really about it it's just another AR15 after all, a chunky one at that, cheaper to just get a BCM which is probably a better rifle overall if you want an AR (that is you're not an HK fanboy and ain't buying because of the brand)..

    picrel is my next LARP buying a sig soon.

    Not so much the piston, it is short stroke so the moving part is very small it is however famous for being overgassed.

    The 416 recoils as little as the mcx since they're both just short stroke pistons anyways according to some idiot in arg.

    Having switched from a Bushmaster Commando to a 426D in my govgay days the difference was noticeable on FA. The DI would tend to climb up and to the side but the HK recoil impulse was directly straight back, milder and much tighter groups when we did our quals.
