Re: Thanks Frank!!!
I didn't even see it untile I say the title on the main page. Guess I need to go get a semiauto now.

There's been plenty of arfcom-ish behavior around here the last 4-5 months. Progressively getting a bit more... let's just say I started thinking all of the public schools have been on a 4-5 month holiday break.
Back on topic. I like the idea of segmenting this forum as well.

I, too, just noticed this and thought it looked new. Good thing, too, or else I'd be wprried that I was losing my mind!
Thank you, LL!

Re: Thanks Frank!!!
...and now, for something completely different, lets speculate.
How would one design an entirely different, entirely new, semiauto action.
Limitations:
No machining. No forgings. Only metallic and synthetic materials. Accuracy that rivals or exceeds existing systems.
Your turn...

I'd say a polymer AR type, but it kinda been done so it doesn't meet the entirely new criteria.

Didn't even notice the title at first; I clicked through the forums and then thought "Damn! Sure are a lot of guys posting AR threads all of a sudden!"
Thanks, Frank. We semi-auto guys appreciate it.

Re: Thanks Frank!!!
I'm thinking that it should be possible to fabricate uppers, lowers, etc. from heavy guage metal stampings. Between die cutting and shape stamping, I don't think there's anything incompatible with good accuracy and cost savings. The design's the thing, and honestly, I just don't think the concept has been done with any serious interest in accuracy, yet... The initial tooling outlay could be formidable, but production costs should be very agreeable for longer runs.
