AlexanderA Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 The concept makes no sense at all. Who would buy these things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MG08 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Because they can. BARs were good guns in their day - they had limitations, but they are far surpassed by modern technology. and a semi only is a waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG,I think that OOW is trying to promote the new variation as a sniper rifle, not a SAW.Every one who owns a 1918A3 rave about the accuracy, so maybe it would have some value.Jim C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) They say in the article the weight has been reduced to 12 pounds. Also incorporated are a manual bolt hold-open (fires semi-auto from a closed bolt), revised magazine release, hydraulic buffer, and an adjustable trigger (from 3.5 to 7 pounds).http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2014/05/08/ohio-ordinance-works-hcar-modernized-bar/?utm_source=Newsletter&utm_medium=Email&utm_content=2014-05-13&utm_campaign=Weekly+Newsletter The concept looks a lot like the 'Jungle BAR' devised by Major H.L. Smith, USMC in 1932, described here in the 3rd paragraph: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1918_Browning_Automatic_Rifle#Variants_and_subsequent_models Edited May 13, 2014 by Big Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
