No folks here decided for 716 (7.62 × 51) as Standard operating rifle for insurgency & CT areas.. whereas Car 816 (5.56× 45) as carbine rifle standard across the army.. on the other hand we are gonna replace Insas with Ak203 ( 7.62 × 39).. you see instead of getting one rifle with barrel change & Bolt conversion kit for caliber change.. we bought three rifle & in 80s when soviet decide & accepted that 5.45 ( 556 or 5.8 version ) is way to go we went straight back.. So our battle rifle would be ak203 not ss716 instead of taking help of iwi or AK or Carcal for designing multi caliber modular weapon (which is available in US civilian market) we fucked up in the name of we are in hurry which we are from last decade not waiting for 2 or 3 year we want to fuck up our logistics, national treasure & weapon industry.. all OFB deserves heal of private corporates cause they only can work under them Fuck you Laal topi union..

@@Olive_Chap They saif they would buy gas block G2 Patrol model of Sig 716 and eneded up buying Direct Impingement Sig 716i...maybe for accuracy as a DMR and cheaper. I hope they go for CAR 816 Gas block operated system and not the direct impingement version.

@@sambalboa4897 what's the difference on these variations bro??

@@stevenrith2386 so what is the best one?

pro trick: watch series at flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.

@Leland Mark yup, been using flixzone} for years myself =)

yes, this is the real question

I own a Sig516 and a Caracal 816A2.....the Caracal is superior in fit and finish. It's arguably the World's best AR15.

I literally own both rifles......the Caracal 816a2 is superior to the 516

Chris Sirois

a 1000 bucks at rainier now

You wont be sorry!!

Just saw a notice, these rifles are in stock at Caracal USA. If you want one, call them directly.

@@SmallArmsSolutions yes I looked them up and they are in I just bought a Colt yesterday so I have to wait. This is my first Colt thanks to you I appreciate all the info I have learned so much from you. Thank you

thehun06 several diffrences

I agree!

Inrange rifle is not the end all be all. For your first rifle dont build it buy it. Save up buy from a good company and do your homework. then build one. Just my opinon. Until you actually fee the way they shoot you wont know what to buy parts wise for what you want to do.

Julian Cuevas it’s like you read my mind.

They are available now. Call Caracal USA

@@SmallArmsSolutions Thanks 🤠

Can its upper be used on a standard AR lower? Thanks

how are you liking it

@@me2ontube coupled with a 4x browe and the bindon aiming concept, this rifle is my go to carbine.

@@duroisgawd what's bindon aiming concept

Jake Z two very different rifles

Per Caracal, the haenel is a licensed copy.

@@SpartanB88the Haenel is not a copy of the 816. They are very different rifles. Haenel is almost identical to the 416 gas system. The same parent company tat owns Caracal also own Haenel.

Trevor Williams been trying to get a std 814. No luck.

Isan Simpson they will be back, they are in a large foreign military contract which is taking up all their capacity.

amazing how some people instead of answering your question prefer to criticize it.

@@Akira-nw4jl Agreed.

if your interested in learning more about the ar15 check out youtube channel : forgotten weapons- Jim Sullivan one of the original designers of the ar15. he's pretty old now but he has redesigned the ar15 to shoot much better, slower cyclic rate with better control, and he does not believe in a light bolt carrier at all. and says he got rid of bolt bounce. NOW THATS IMPRESSIVE! No other designer can claim this. too bad no one has bought his new design.

SSA

First and last rifle

​@@SmallArmsSolutionsOutstanding. Thanks!

More to it.

It’s fantastic

Are you familiar with the current pandemic, election fraud, and political unrest in the US?

Very different from Adam’s Arms

I've only managed to find their 814 direct inpingment AR's.

@@Humberto4790 I actually finally managed to acquire one! Haven't shot it yet but it is very well built. You have to order direct from the company. Don't give up.

@@elitetrader5468 So I could just email Caracal on their website? Is that how you did it?

@@Humberto4790 Yes, or you can call. Probably both is best. They can be slow to respond...

Shamir Roshni I would guess the need to get established in the US market first. They have a 7.62 in the UAE. Not made in the US yet.

They have the CAR817 in the UAE, not in the US though.

Chris misspoke. Unfortunately, I’m not sure what his point was since QPQ has nothing to do with hammer forging. I don’t know if he’s saying that button rifling is as good as hammer forged(it isn’t for a hard use gun), or that QPQ is as good as chrome lined(it isn’t). If Caracal is telling him that, then they are FOS! I’m not aware of ANY military gun using QPQ. It’s certainly cheaper and much less environmentally bad, so you would think military guns would go that way, but they are not. The only advantage is that a really good button rifled, QPQ barrel should be more accurate. But for military use, I doubt the accuracy advantage would offset the reduced durability.

@@donrichter3523 Hey, thank you for the answer. Forgot about this video. I think _some_ military small arms, especially sidearms, may use QPQ. Anyway, like you said, Chris probably misspoke and we are overthinking it. Cheers!

The NATO test TOP is in that link. It’s 80 some odd pages.. but it’s the info you’re looking for.

rainier is selling them for ... 1000 bucks !!! ... get em while they're hot !

PHILIP JUSTICE I got both. Caracal is an improvement over the Sig

@@SmallArmsSolutions Thank you Sir! The Caracal is very hard to find!

Sig. chrome lined CHF barrel. They go quick if you can find one. Hang on to it

spacedredd not sure. Company is still in its infancy in the US

Contact the company. They are available

Call Caracal directly. They are available

Forgot HK lol I'm sure there's more I mean a few years back the stag 2 was a m4 clone I think almost exactly ..

BCA?!? Those are utter shit! Maybe you meant BCM? Those are generally good, but despite the web hype, they are not great by any means. Spikes doesn’t belong here, nor does Wilson. Noveske……maybe when John was alive, but I’d say no. Sig….ugh….Sig screws its civilian customers over all the time. Constantly coming out with new product, discontinuing the old and parts support completely disappears. I hate Sig with a passion. Companies that make real guns for military clients are Colt, FN, HK, KAC, LMT, Daniel Defense uppers, Geissele uppers. That’s pretty much it. Yes, Sig sold to India, that doesn’t make them good. Also keep in mind, Sig small parts are MIM’d in………you guessed it, India. I would add in IWI, but they don’t sell AR to military.

Mike Perry no, carbine

Ray Magnuson I believe it is comparable to them

One is a boutique rifle while the other two are battle rifles that will last 30,000 rounds with a chrome lined barrel.

Oh….I’d luv to hear which one you think is a boutique rifle…🙄. Probably the one which actually isn’t. Insert POF fanboi BS.

Ségvvolf .308 🤔

@@SmallArmsSolutions lol sorry, had to. Shit gets boring after a while. Love your videos, keep it up.

@@SmallArmsSolutions sometimes you see guys comparing AR's and their recievers and saying which is better and they dont even realize the 2 different brands of AR's are made in the same place. Its just funny to me. You just see AR after AR after AR and it gets old. I do realize this one is different and extremely high quality but its still an AR varient and as much as i hate to say it i still think HK holds 1st place for the best AR varient. I fucking hate HK and opinions are still like assholes so whatever lol.

@segwolfxviii2919, yup…and your opinion stinks

k3v1n I think 10 inches.

@@SmallArmsSolutions 9 inches

adolfhilter yes it can

No in the Us. They don’t import them either. For commercial market they felt quad rails were obsolete.

@@SmallArmsSolutions well I suppose I can put some long mlok 1913 rails on it to get that quad rail look! I’m really considering buying one of their uppers! My income tax check has been burning a hole in my pocket and was earmarked for a colt 6940, but now that I’m hearing about these I might go this route. What would you recommend?

You do with a sig 516

And chrome

Ray Magnuson yes, there is a patrol rifle with one.

@@SmallArmsSolutions can you buy it or do you have to get it with the rifle only?

Galil is long stroke piston. Totally different design.

J Calvert several differences

SmallArmsSolutions is Wilcox doing a good job? I heard mixed things about them

Steve Pattee - i know. seeing Chris banging away at some target??? off in the distance and never get to see the results of his efforts is like banging that really hot chick youve lusted after for 2 yrs but were too drunk to recall any of it!

Quad rails are still the strongest rails and always will be. MLOK for ergos, but you sacrifice strength.

@King Tutt they're solutions for weight... so that phrase doesnt apply. Use loctite like you would mounting shit to rails and it works just fine. Truth hurts only to those who cant accept that their opinions arent true.

@King Tutt 🤣🤣 ok guy

what mass don't know ... :)

alen lalic I don’t blame them. The Ar-15 is pretty much a perfect rifle.

Why? What is the need? Also, that is a HUGE business risk.

@@danielcuevas5899 Exactly. Just refine the best platform out there. Uniqueness for uniqueness sake is a monument to the stupidity of man. Reminds me of affirmative action.
