Hello all I know the slide fire stocks are a waste of ammo and money but is it bad on the rifle as well?

You "know" that, do you?

Yep. I think it is a waste of ammo which cost money there for a waste of money.

Other than increased heat from the faster rate of fire it shouldn't cause abnormal wear on your rifle.  Definitely does help anything though.... the slide fire is an abomination

N/M... carry on.

I just ordered one.  Looks like fun to me.

As to OP - it seems no more harmful than rapid fire would be on a rifle.

Back up your claim.

You obviously don't see the fun of having one, so why do you care?

It's no more harmful to the rifle than mag dumps with a standard stock.

Second Slide Fire post today. Part of me thinks I aught to just ask that my thread be moved to GD.

I'm surprised that's not banned in CA.

I don't like them because on the East Coast (without vast areas of shootable land) they tend to attract too much range closing asshattery.  Some people can control things like that well, but most will be all over and send rounds over the berm (at rifle ranges).





This being said, I think it would be fun on a suppressed .22lr, but I doubt it'd work there.

I can see that in some ways. That is why I am constantly pushing my prone bumpfire threads. These things can be practical....seriously. It's quite accurate, and would actually be hard to send rounds over any berms unless you WANTED too.

This was in the Tech forum when I first posted.  I guess a mod moved it soon after.

My brother bought one. Was horrible. Had no fun with it at all. I wasted a lot of ammo.

I am seriously thinking of doing a HEAVY BHAR type build on a m60 bipod or versa pod both modified to fit on a freefloat tube.   the weight should help with recoil,

That was my original plan...

The reason it is like you see, is that I already had all the dissipator parts and that barrel from a previous build. The TRX Extreme does have a certain 1919ish look.

The one I used has a GI trigger group in it. The experience was uncomfortable at best, and painful toward the end. There's a joke somewhere in there.



I'd bet it would have been 10x better with a good trigger group.

You're not really up on the way heat affects the rate of erosion in steel, are you?

Yes, full auto fire is tough on barrels.

I've got one and don't shoot it very often.  Probably put it on the m&p.  I noticed after I shot it last time that I was getting pieces of primer down in the FCG.  Not sure if it was from using it or just a build up over a longer time.
