I don't understand it?
Why not just get an UMP or ... whatever the civvie model is called (I think USC?) My friend has one.. it's a great gun

Because even though the .45 is a great round there are ohers out there beter ballisticly

..50AE upper before they quit making "sledgehammer" uppers for ar's.
.

Had one and sold it. LOVED the fact that DE and it used the same ammo. I regret not getting a .44mag sledge hammer. Seems now all he does is the fast bullets.

And the .458 is junk

I asked above.. Why would someone get one of these for an AR rather than just buying a HK USC?

I know that's .45... but I don't understand why someone would spend their money doing this to a bottleneck rifle when they can spend around the same and have a purposebuilt entry/sub gun

Ballistics! sub guns are more like compromise guns. Pistol caliber in a short rifle form..... so anytime someone claims to have a round or idea hotter or better han the last people jump on it. In this case it's the size game. .50 WOW a alf in gun..... BFD

You gotta look at the total package and se what works best for YOUR application.

The .50 GI i cant see knocking hinges off doors the same as a B-Wulf........ And I've done that with teh B-Wulf.

As far as sub guns go, that's a whole other can of worms.

you cant say Uzi or UMP or Tommy and call it a day, it's a lot deeper that that but it all begins wth teh cartridge.

many of my friends have put .22 kits on their m-16's and AR's for.. rather an opposite reason.. at todays ammo prices FA .223 costs a friggin mint...

but that said I also see how they work.. some of these guys are gunsmiths and I think they spend 5x as much time clearing jams, fiddling, adjusting .. etc than firing.. They have multiple different kits.. and I'd say all (ok.. prolly most) are a complete pita.. you end up with an m16 that tosses 3 or 4 rounds down range then misfires or misloads... fiddle fiddle.. do it again)

Find new friends............FAST!:laughing:
