  1. Sweet Gun Jesus, I've been trying to figure out how to take my RSC apart for ages. You're a Saint! No wait, you're Gun Jesus!

  2. Joe Donnelly Oh shut it, you blowhard. The RSCs feature in a high profile piece of media can only do it good. More of those "millenials" will learn about it now than they ever would. They're now interested in something they probably wouldn't have given a shit about otherwise.

  3. So far, once. It was pretty interesting, definitely not like shooting a regular semi-auto rifle. The recoil impulse is firm but gentle. I plan on getting it to video, but none of the ranges like anyone recording video so I'll have to do it somewhere else

  4. Good question, I've wondered that too. Every RSC I've ever seen has that. Perhaps it's for strengthening the rather weak magazine housing? Beats me...

  6. fastmongrel They got plenty of use, but due to the lesser quality of the metal, suffered a lot of parts breakage. Plus, that gaping slot in the receiver probably didn't do so well against mud ingress.

  7. Guys, I will shoot it one day and post the video on my channel. If and when I do that, I will hopefully remember to post the link here so all of you can see it. Please don't sub to me, because I'm lazy and I don't post anything

  9. There's even a third variant of hold-open, that looks similar to the bottom variation but is a two-piece knee jointed setup.
