Re: S&T AR-57
I thought P90 mags in general misfed due to the feeding mechanism? I remember lots of badmouthing of the TM P90 because of just that, though if that's not an issue with MAG P90 mags, that's pretty sweet

The Hi-Caps never work, but the MAG ones always feed ~150 BBs reliably just like all their mags I have owned. Even though I don't have a P90 right now I always keep some MAG mids in case I'm tempted to get another, or one of these AR57s.

Re: S&T AR-57
Good to know! This'd probably make a really nice DMR...

Re: S&T AR-57
Yeah although fitting a scope may get in the way of changing mags.

Re: S&T AR-57
I'd of thought an ACOG would work alright, can't imagine anything longer working though!

Re: S&T AR-57
seriously, i feel a DMR project coming on that uses the existing mags i already have. decent length, version 2 or version 3 gearbox, bipod and a scope.
probally need to gut it and replace it with decent parts...but hey ho such is life

Re: S&T AR-57
Any word on what GB this uses? Standard V2?

Re: S&T AR-57
Almost certainly going to be V2, probably a custom hop-up unit though.
Here's some food for thought in the mean time:

I want to do this with mine - bore out the front and stick a silencer in it like so:
And then slap a T-1 on it like so:

Re: S&T AR-57
I really like the looks of this, it's nice to see companies putting new stuff out there rather than same old m4's with a new rail...
As for the fact S&T are making it, I've had no problems with my Tavor, the metal gearbox version is great, and in fair i would imagine this would use a version 2 gearbox so even that wouldn't be an issue.
In my book S&T deserve an internet baked dough treat with chocolate chips.
