Slide fire with spring assisting forward action will waste a lot of ammo quickly !

Is that you Special Agent Smuckatelli?

Don't you DOJ types have anything better to do besides this?

If by some chance you are not Agent Smuckatelli or a 07/02 it may be prudent to edit your post.

One thing we fail to recognize that during a SHTF situation, protecting our homes, families, and property the 'ENEMY" may well be governmental, in which case they will posess better weapons, armored vehicles, and possibly grenades as well as possible air support. And they will keep coming until the defenders are killed ! Civilian thugs may possibly be lessor armed
and be killed and/or kept at bay. A perfect sight picture. hold the breath and squeeze off a round works well for the well trained marksman. But F/A is not to be laughed at, can scatter bad guys.

If they're using armor and air support a wanna be FA won't help you....

We're going ahead with a pre-order-Our distributor said Dealer cost should be around $350......so retail around $400... a little pricey, but if they work as advertised.......

3 Position selector switch may catch some folks off guard ...

So is the trigger reset constant (I.e. do you have to release the slight pressure off the trigger and reapply for each shot) or can you just hold the trigger down and let the action take care for you? Couldn't tell in the website video, but it looked like he kept slightly releasing the trigger each time, but maybe that was just he way the recoil made it look.

V-Tach's review of the item was less than favorable unless something has changed....

There's lots of unfavorable reviews on that gimmick. At best it was as good as a Geissele or Timney trigger, at 166-200% the price. At worst it turned your gun into a jammomatic with hammer down on a live round, no ignition, weapon out of action until you work the handle again.

Here's the best review:


While we're on the topic of bumpfire gimmicks, a word of warning:

SlideFire owners, DO NOT put a spring in your SlideFire stock like the knuckleheaded suggestion/felony-confession posted up above. That turns it into an Akins Accelerator style MachineGun conversion kit and is NFA regulated and ATF will treat you no differently than if you bought a M16 FCG, drilled a sear pin hole and installed the parts. Manufacturing a MG conversion kit is the same as manufacturing a MG receiver in the eyes of the feds.

Altering the firing mech on any weapon outside its design parameters is due caution. The results can be less than favorable.

My father was testing a gun for a fellow operative. The gun had been altered to fire FA. It blew 9 rds out the muzzle in a split sec. The gun was clearly unsafe and not useable in the company.

I'm considering picking up a couple of slide fire stocks, one for an AK, the other for an AR in case I need to increase my volume of fire during a SHTF situation. I'd like to hear people's opinions of them, especially from TGT members who own or have fired them. I've watched several videos and they seem to quite controllable, at least in the AR and look like they'd make a great MDU (MOB DISPERSAL UNIT), especially with a Beta mag. Your thoughts, Gentlemen?

I'm sure the guys you are spraying (read: wasting) ammo at will appreciate the parts they'll take off of your AR after your gas tube melts.

Hey bud, I can see you are proud of using greek words like "ad hominem" and "curriculum vitae" (most people abbreviate it to CV btw

), but using greek terms doesn't make you any smarter or help your argument. I appreciate your effort to psychoanalyze me, and you are very perceptive, (folks like you do kinda to piss me off) but you still have not explained why the stock will fail. Maybe you could stick to that and skip the psychology.

Now you are offering me your CV? LOL Are you applying for a job or something? Look man, I don't really give a crap what you think. You're free to feel any way you want about slidefire. But just don't expect you're just going to come in here and have the last word by saying "I'm a firearms police instructor, so what I say is gold" without someone else who actually owns one chiming in. Over and out.

You know damn well I'm talking about full auto here.

M2 is full auto. Effective against armor.

 

[Younggun]

Also MK19 is full auto. Slow rate of fire, but still auto.

You know damn well I'm talkin about slide fires, and M2's don't have a damn thing to do with this.

Slide fire for a Barrett?

 

[Sapper740]

Those are useless without a live chicken and peach preserves.

and gun tape, otherwise the chicken will explode.

Also MK19 is full auto. Slow rate of fire, but still auto.

Mark 19 is full auto too. Even slower rate of fire, pretty effective against body armor, more fun to shoot, and has even less to do with a slide fire stock.

But still a blast to shoot.

I'm still wondering why this would happen??? I mean really... that makes about as much sense as say my buffer running out of buffering...
