Yup, that's a rerun...but that 50 is badass. A new one is on Monday night I think, and I believe it will have new SMG's.

Yup that 50 is pretty cool. It is AI first attempt at the Semi Auto market.

I am not familiar with that company, but they stated titanium was in many parts of the weapon to reduce weight. What did they say 25lbs. ?

Sam but did you notice the way the scope mount/cover moved during the recoil?

I swear it bended when they did the slo-mo replay. AI's are fargin nice I just wished I held onto mine:(

I think mondays episode has something about the HK MP7 .

The show’s ok I guess. One minute they’re showing a lightning suitcase and the next something that is actually useful form AI. I watch it equipped with the same BS meter I use for surfing weapons forums. i.e.; Set it on high and try not to be too impressed. But Its hard to not take notice of an AI weapon :D

It was a Schmidt and Bender with the AI logo on it. That rig as tested was probably in the $8,000 range. Maybe more. Very nice piece of equipment!

It did some serious flexing. I couldn't figure out if the scope mount moves rearward during recoil or not. But the scope did flex and bounce around a lot. That semi looked as if it recoils softer than the bolt gun as well.

S&Bs are truly great scopes but I wonder how long it would last like that. I just goes to show you that a hell of a lot goes on during firing of a rifle.

Perchance do you mean something like the MP7?

From what I saw the recoil looked softer then a AW bolt 50. Id like to see one though shot beside a M82A1 for comparison.











The AW is probably over $12.5K :(
