I did not used to believe in love at first sight, but she has me steloks. This spanish maiden has captured my heart like she captured 55% of my ancestors. However I heard they had some terrible CQ issues in spain, please tell me the american made ones fixed that and are of high quality. The MARCOLMAR CETME-L in particular. Or even the Hill and Mac gunworks made ones. I don't care that she's $1400, I just wanna know if she'll last.

Fuck this was supposed to be in the QTDDTOT I must have been in the wrong tab. I guess, Spanish weapons thread?
Get a load of this faggot.
trash
Sure, why not.
We use the C90-CR, a Spanish made 90mm disposable rocket launcher by Instalaza. It weighs like 4kg and appears to be the closest thing to a modern M72 LAW, as it has enough power to scrape modern armour 500mm RHA according to them. It was purchased in some time early 2010s I think, primarily for use in Afghan.
We bought more in 2014, and they are in use in the French mission in Mali, where our troops are currently deployed. The ones in Mali are HEAT ones, I think, but we also have HEDP models.
It's a neat AT and AV weapon that is adequately light and powerful for modern usage. Something as low calibre as the M72 LAW can't really cut the cloth anymore, so you have to step up a little bit.
Over here we have mixed oponions, but they are known to be dirty rifles made with cheap materials, which resulted in various types of constant malfunctions, like jams, inaccuracy, magazines that stuck, broken firing pins…
The Cetme L was specially bad, the C model was much more robust as well.
They also needed to be perfectcly lubricated al clean, or else they would start giving problems.
If you had to buy one, I'd personally recommend you to choose the model C.
I too love the clean StG-44 look of them because they are them, but due to poor quality, I've opted to get a more modern take on them in the PTR-91.
I guess you just blew in off the Reddit train? You should go back.
This is the only review I know of for the Marcolmar Cetme L
>The lead architect of this rifle was German firearms designer Ludwig Vorgrimler, whose work included the development of the StG-45 assault rifle. While the war ended before the StG-45 could enter production, the design nonetheless intrigued the armed forces of several nations; one of these nations was Spain, whose government hired Vorgrimler in 1949 to develop a new rifle based on the StG-45's method of operation. Upon arrival in Spain, he helped form the CETME group, whose first project was the development of the eponymous CETME assault rifle. The first prototypes of the CETME rifle was completed in 1951, and chambered in the same 7.92x33 mm as the StG-44 and StG-45, simply because it was the only suitable military cartridge available in quantity at the time.
I mean I get that there's a drastic mechanical difference between the 44 and 45, but we can all make mistakes right?

You really want the spiritual successor to the STG, get a ptr 32. Yes, AK mags and 7.62x39 is heresy depending on how you look at it, but it's the closest you're going to get (The HMG STG is never, ever coming). A bit heavy for a modern rifle, but it will scratch your itch. Win the lotto and pair it with one of Lugerman's 10mm Lugers and have a field day playing cyberpunk 80's wheraboo
PTR would use a delayed roller system, right? So it would be another successor to the StG 45, what an StG 44 enthusiast should be after is a FAL.
that right there is a beautiful piece of work
I want it right now, streloks, give me links, don't care if legal or not
Depends how you look at it. The whole CETME family is a direct descendant of the STG program, roller delayed or not. It's not even like it was different people that were "inspired" by it, it was literally the same people. It's exactly what Nazi Germany would have ended up with given enough time. So depending on what you're looking for when you say "Modernized STG", you can go either way, direct descendant or mechanically inspired.

It's over 1400 dollarydoos
More Spanish weapons that bear a 100% coincidental resemblance to German WW2 guns
I'd forgotten about those and how much I needed them
so be it
Guns are tools and you must be willing to give up and replace that tool, if it is a companion to you then risk losing it in combat.
Nigger the designers of the STG and G3 went to Spain after the war (like Mussolini attempted to do) and built them the CETME 58 series which is practically a G3.
That is one odd looking AR-15, Strelok.
It's obviously a FAMAS you nincompoop.
you still want one, user?
could always make one. it can be done with basic power and hand tools and a cheap stick welder
i made mine using an HMG receiver flat and weldaments back early 2017
all said and done unless you enjoy the process, just buying from MCM will be a better deal
the rifles they're putting out have a good reputation.
the rifle itself is extremely quirky– however if made properly is reliable
a quick rundown of the ugly:
the sights are atrocious. just bad all the way around. the imported kits have the 'fat' front sight post variant– the preferred one because it doesn't bend. but its too fat. it should probably be reduced in size 25-30%. MCM made their own skinny front sight post. the rear sight is like a massive wall with a hole in it. with good lighting, its useable– if annoying. the moment you get near dusk or dawn tho and you can't see a fucking thing. the placement of the bolt hold open makes it basically unusable outside administrative tasks. the rivet your charging handle lever is retained on has a sharp edge and will tear your hand open during reloads and remedial. your mag catch screw will walk out under fire, and induce horrific malfunctions. it must be loctited all the way down– probably why it is slotted in the first place. they can be picky about magazines. the trigger pack is a nightmare to remove– and it is possible to lock the entire firearm up in ways that seem impossible to get out of.
other than that she's pretty fun. handles well, if a little heavy for a 556 rifle. the LC looks like it would be an improvement in every way, although ive never handled one. anything MCM makes with optics options would be an improvement.
Have fun not having your aim guided by the eternal machine spirit, faggot.

Which makes you practically retarded
That "Spanish Maiden" was designed by Germans who founded HK and put together by retarded spanish monkeys at the lowest possible cost.
Back in the day, when they were cheaper and no AR10 existed– I could see a HK91 clone (never a CETME). Today, when a sub 2 MOA AR10 comes up for $1500, why would you piss the same amount of money away on a POS CETME?
I own two HK 91 clones, both US assembled and quality made clones from German HK parts (unlike CETME trash). I did not pay anywhere near 1500 monies a pop for them (this was many moons ago).
If you are ready to piss away 1500 on one of these POS, then either buy a PTR, or save another 1500 and buy a real HK91. At least when you figure out it is not competitive with current offerings– you will be able to sell it to another collector and recoup your monies or even make a profit. If you actually have to use it, then at least it stands a chance of actually working. In 5 years that CETME won't be worth $600 (barring a semi-auto ban). They are worn out and warmed over mil-surplus trash. Next it and move on.
These ones, at leas the ones I was looking at are all new production, not parts kits.
If you think really hard and big the M16 is also an stg-44
I probably shouldn't have posted this cause it's just gonna sperg people out instead of making them laugh at the joke.
point is, everybody took a little something from the stg-44
They are shipping soon! In august!
Yeah, three years ago
spaniards are basically moors. niggers dont get to speak here.

nobody cares about the resale value of your firearms. only the dumbest faggots buy firearms as a form of investment. they are tools. so long as it works, who gives a shit about its pedigree. gucci gun loving retards like you should be shot.

I'm not trying to derail this thread but I'm sick of people dismissing the STG44's influence on multiple service rifles from the early post-war era, particularly the AK. I get that its action is drastically, if not entirely, different from that of the rifles I believe to be its direct descendents but I don't think that matters. That is because I do not view the action, the caliber, or any of the most commonly cited "innovations" the STG is credited with introducing to the world of military small arms.
In my opinion, the true legacy of the STG44 lies in the construction of its receiver. One can point to at least one other rifle or carbine that had been accepted into service before the STG44 that included one of the supposedly "innovative" features. Intermediate cartridge? Dozens of examples. Select fire plus intermediate cartridge? M1/M3 Carbine. Gas operated piston action? Again, dozens of rifles. Mass production of a design intended to deliver large volumes of fire and issued in quantities intended to equip entire infantry units? The Soviets were on that first with their SMGs. That stamped receiver though? That was the key to making every other innovation possible.
Making a stamped receiver work for an SMG is easy, so easy in fact that literally everyone in WWII was doing so. Making a stamped receiver strong enough to handle the power of a near-rifle like cartridge though? That's so hard it took the Soviets over a decade to get it right and accepted into service despite that being a definitive feature of the AK design from the very start. If anything, the milled AKs prove that the basic design principles of the assault rifle had been technologically feasible but not economically viable. Only the Soviet Union could afford to go full retard and throw virtual slave labor and the weight of a controlled economy behind such am absurdly time intenaive manufacturing process. If not for the stolen German technology and engineers, they would have never been able to have the confidence that a design like the stamped AK would eventually be cheap enough to accept into service as the primary infantry rifle.
There's nothing wrong with being a purist, and I DO love me some H&K… but I just don't see why even bother paying an extra 1500 for a used HK91 when you can get a brand new PTR. PTR uses the same tooling and makes everything to exact spec, so minus the name, it's basically already as H&K as it gets. As far as I would recommend, use that extra cash to buy a comfy carrier from bulletproofme and mags/ammo.
