poolingmyignorance 2,191 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Heavy, but pretty nice. And as stated in the article has a bit to offer over the RFB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MT Predator 2,294 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Only Guns America would put a UTG scope on an M1A. The Rogue chassis has been around for a while. Most reviews I've seen say it makes a very bulky weapon. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shades_of_grey 1,092 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 What's that rifle weigh? 15 lbs? No thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
liberty -r- death 1,445 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Since it's about 13 pounds already, what's an extra 2 pounds over original configuration. Looks nice even if my tiny muscles wouldn't care for it much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BpS12 512 Posted June 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) The article says it ways in at 11# with a 20rnd mag inserted. Thats not bad for an M1A. Consider that the bulk of the weight is carried between you're shoulder and pg, rather than from the pg to the fg. My S12 weighs in at just under 10# empty, but you'd never know it given the weight distribution. Still, at $900-$1300, I think I'll stick with Saigas/AKs. My RPK gets similar accuracy with the right ammo. Edited June 1, 2012 by BpS12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

storm6490 2,768 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) Heavy, but pretty nice. And as stated in the article has a bit to offer over the RFB. I own the scom 16 and the rfb. I would rather use the rfb as a bullpup. I don't have the conversion for the socom but would guess the feel of the trigger would be compromised. The weight is a big negative and the fact that it can only be shot right handed is a huge negative for south paws and rigt handed people who may want to shoot from both sides. In close quarters, your right side will be sprayed with red hot brass. Not a friendly thing to do to your buddy. The RFB was experimental for many, many years before it came out in a .308. It started out as a 5.56. After firing mine, a bunch, I would say that it is very dependable. More dependable than the m16a2 i was issued. It's a very cool stock, but nothing compared to the RFB. You can get one online all day long. The trigger mechanism on the rfb is awesome from the factory. Nice fat pad and crisp, responsive action. err... 7.62 nato damn near the same thing.

Most reviews I've seen say it makes a very bulky weapon. And talk trash about the RFB. I'm the first to rip on something I have owned and used. Tried to find bad things about my RFB. I simply love it. As much as my Tac47. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would hope so, given its a .308 vs x39. But if you're getting the same accuracy at 100yrds....I can afford the RPK and bullpup it myself. not to much the M1A. Rethinking my op, I may have to look further into the RFB. Those come in long barrel? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rethinking my op, I may have to look further into the RFB. Those come in long barrel? its an 18 standard and there was a long barrel version on gunbroker just the other day so they are out there but much more rare. not sure if i would want any more length to the barrel. 27 inches makes is perfect for opening the door up in the middle of the night with one hand and the other on the grip. It fits great on your lap in a vehicle and can be easily and accurately aimed in very tight spaces. I paid 1350 for mine so there is still a few good shops around. They tend to go for around 1700 right now. Gunbroker is about the only place you will find the long barrel version. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
22_Shooter 1,560 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 I have no experience with it, but I like the looks of the Sage EBR chassis system: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Boba Debt 350 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 They went with the wrong base gun, The Socom 16 costs about $1900 and the bull pup kit is $895. Once modified you're going to have a 12 pound gun that cost $2800 Plus many of the people that buy a Socom will not want to franken-gun it due to the classic look of the rifle They should have used a GI PTR-91. It costs $800 and magazines are super cheap plus you also have the HK-91 market as well. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MT Predator 2,294 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 If you go on their website, the chassis is designed for and marketed for the Military which they won't buy anyway. All M14/M21 rifles currently fielded are DMRs and a bullpup does not suit the criteria the Military desires in a DMR or Main Battle Rifle/Carbine. Juggernaut will make some money selling it to Mall Ninjas though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Salmonking 149 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 "Juggernaut" definitely describes that stock's size, but I've never really been sold on any bullpup conversions that are out on the market. IMO a bullpup really needs to be designed from the ground up as a bullpup, not squeezed/cut to fit into a polymer aftermarket stock with a shitload of rails on it. I don't know any M1A fans who would ever be really hyped about turning their gun into a fat midget for $900. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
