I need a gun that fires 7.62 NATO

[MindfulMan]

I think that roscott might be onto something here, KJ.
Having been around you a bit, that 308 BAR looks awful nice, and suits you ..... black, all business, and brutal ! It appears to be similar in that regard, to some of the other firearms that you own.
I bet that it would eat up a bunch of 7.62 NATO like nobodies business !

FAL SBR, if you don't hit'em you'll scorch them

Mine is not an SBR but it's a 16 inch and it will put out some flames

If you don't want an ambi-Tavor 7, the DPMS G2 SASS is fun.

The only .308 I own is a Remington 700 PSS. I bought a case of 7.62 NATO for the Proteq shoot last Saturday, and brought most of it home. I now have ammo that doesn't really fit any gun I have. Only one solution. I need a new gun, obviously.

So, INGO, what 7.62 NATO gun do I need???

I like the way you think

I made the comment because I have an AR-10 chambered in .308 vice 7.62. I learned that information because I spoke with the manufacturer, Midwest Industries, on what can be fired through what. I realize you were trying to buy a gun and I was simply providing input so if you wanted to put 7.62 through your .308, you knew it was okay.
Midwest provides a good .308/7.62 line, but obviously the gun that suites you would depend more on your budget regarding what manufacturer you choose.
I was under the impression people went to forums for assistance with questions and I was trying to provide that. However, I will be sure to refrain from doing that again. I'm just a Marine, so what do I know?

Your question doesn't make any sense. The rifle you have will shoot your ammo just fine. 7.62 NATO is a military round. It will fire just fine out of any .308 rifle.

Thank you.

I'm a sucker for lightweight rifles. Ounces equal pounds, pounds equal pain.

Have you looked at the Browning BAR? 6lbs 10oz.

If you'd rather have the more tacticool version there's also this:

You'd have to find it used though.

Tactrav, I meant no offense. This thread is pretty much tongue in cheek. Just a little humor, and an excuse to buy a new gun. Hell, I've got ammo I don't want to shoot through a precision gun, I obviously need something mag fed and cool.

I have a M1-A to sell/trade if your interested.............

But the FNAR is over 8 pounds. Browning now makes a “tactical” BAR with detachable mags, still 6lbs 10 oz.

Holy ****! My wife has hacked his account!

Maybe you've missed the most important part here. I need a new gun!

I feel ya.

My 9mm Luger guns hate 9mm Parabellum and those hate 9x19 and those hate 9mm NATO. What's a guy to do?

There is only one thing to do. We should plan a trip to the gunstore!

I am sure your wife would agree that the only way to really know for sure is to get an AR10, M1A, a FAL... and try them all out.

 

[red_zr24x4]

I think you need an M1A with the wood stock!
I really like mine, just don't shoot it as much as I should

I'll bet she has several pairs of shoes... all the same size! What's good for the goose is good for the gander I say.

Fair enough, I didn't pick up on that. Thanks!
