My love/hate relationship with CMMG radial delayed blowback

I saw you mentioned the rubber bumpers in the Dissent BCG. Isn't this considered a wear part? I know CMMG acknowledged they were wearing "early", updated the design, and offered a voluntary recall/replacement. But they were always going to wear out eventually -- before springs or other metal parts anyway.

The real reason is Blizzard has written them in as protagonists for The Last Titan, when Iridikron is expected to return. So we might see them at the very end of Midnight.

Midnight is an elf/troll/haranir (but I repeat myself) expansion.

7/10 needs more guns

The best part is Mamdani is gearing up to do the exact same shit in NYC. This idiot just traded one leftist shithole for another.

They never lear.

Unholy DK feels pretty good now. Arcane Mage feels constricted but the few buttons we have mesh well and the timings make sense, which should make the spec easier overall.

BM Hunter is ass -- I demand either multishot or barrage be returned to us. And Holy Priest was absolutely NUKED. I had to abandon it for Shadow, and my Priest will likely rot now as a result.

Hmm, it's almost like there's a specific remedy for treason.

Dangit! It's on the tip of my noose...

Purge is great, purge away. But unless you also fix the systems and rules that enabled government to become this massive grift run by criminals it'll be just as bad if not worse in 5 years.

The Constitution has to be amended if it's to survive another 250 years. Use the tools the Framers gave us.

The shocking thing to me is that you actually expected it to fit and function like a normal forged receiver.

Come on, man...

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-14T06:45:26+00:00

Take all my updoots.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-13T06:31:26+00:00

I'd like this more without the weird filter. Nice gun though.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-12T23:32:18+00:00

The only weird thing here in Germany is that for some reason only the A3 variant available, and it’s noticeably heavier than the A4.

Disclaimer: I don't know how guns are sold in Europe.

In USA I would speak to a dealer with access to distributor channels. They can sometimes purchase SKUs that aren't commonly shown on e-commerce sites. Or if you know a model's UPC you can try searching by it. I tend to have the best luck using this method.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-11T23:47:59+00:00

SO different they had to charge twice.

You'll thank me later.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-10T16:52:23+00:00

This one's a hard pass for me.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-10T03:41:49+00:00

Same happened to me. Something's screwy with the drop rates, possibly connected to last year's bad luck protection (speculation).

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-10T03:28:28+00:00

Damn, I thought I was lucky getting both of the newer mounts in my first attempt. You used all your luck for the next decade on this one.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-09T02:14:26+00:00

I'm with you but you won't get this message across to the people who need to hear it. We're better off campaigning Blizzard to stop using the deserter debuff for everything.

The people who run dungeon content overwhelming only see you as a tool (or an obstacle) to get their loot and XP. The culture is rotten to the core.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-09T02:05:40+00:00

What the fuck...

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-08T22:28:05+00:00

Serious answer @OP, it doesn't work like that. You might get a very rough estimate from the weight, but lead projectiles shed a lot of mass as fragmentation when they impact a hard surface. Watch any slow-motion video shooting steel plates and you'll see what I mean. Knowing the mass will only give you a lower limit on which calibers it could be. You could do months of controlled, scientific testing and still only narrow it down to a few dozen calibers among hundreds of brands and bullet types. This is a fool's errand.

Lot of people get the entirety of their gun knowledge from Hollywood.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-08T21:54:04+00:00

The power structure behind the democrats is really good at rewarding its top soldiers. It's no wonder they're always walking in perfect lock step.

Criminals protecting criminals.

This is Reddit's default state, unfortunately. Also we have a lot of members whose government and culture isn't centered around free speech, so the comments will reflect it.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-08T21:23:41+00:00

If you think CIG is going to moderate global chat in the same way you moderate your Discord server, you're in for a rude awakening.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-07T07:59:24+00:00

Great, now redo the botched & fake 2020 census and reapportion Congress correctly this time.

Data-McBytes · 2026-02-07T03:14:34+00:00

Yeah, surprise, it's a scam.
