PSA is resurrecting the STG-44!

Рет қаралды 757,885

Жыл бұрын

STG-44 reproductions have been in the works from Hill & Mac Gun Works for a while, and now Palmetto State Armory is onboard to bring it across the finish line! The STG-44 reproduction is part of PSA's new "Battlefield" line of retro inspired guns. There area few modern touches such as a new magazine pattern, and a tweaked gas system to help make the gun more shootable, but the look and feel is faithful to the original.

I looked at the lawsuit they were talking about. From the summary I read, they partnered with True Precision to make parts for rifles. They sued for the following: 1) Breach of contract for failure to manufacture firearms, 2) reach of contract for posting a video on Vimeo in violation of the confidentiality agreement, 3)Failing to deliver on promised delivery dates on which HMG had relied (Promissory Estoppel), 4)Taking “machines, materials, parts, tools, and training” from HMG and not compensating them (Unjust Enrichment), 5)Holding parts that they had made hostage, thereby preventing HMG from delivering to customers (Interference with performance of a contract), 6)Negligent misrepresentation in claiming that they could produce the StG, 7) failing to return the machines, parts, and tools (Conversion).

@Klyce Жыл бұрын

I don't trust HMG, but PSA has often delivered on promises. No MP5, but much of the R&D on this STG had already been done and PSA would probably only have to make some minor changes, inhouse production, and ship it.

The reason is identical to why the airsoft market doesn't have every firearm model even though it is much cheaper, the market just isn't there. Most people barely shell out the money to buy an AR and a handgun, usually it is one or the other. Very few people will buy unconventional or dated models. Usually most people spend money on ammunition as their primary expense.

With CNC manufacturing being what it is, there is a real opportunity for repro firearms such as this. I am really interested in the StG-44. I wonder what other firearms might be re-produced.

@Schlabbeflicker Жыл бұрын

Past limitations with these kind of firearms was that "authentic" patterns were stamped receivers, which is a method best suited for high-volume production with low per-unit cost but high capital cost. Modern CNC processes are the inverse, which is why rifles made from wholly milled parts like AR-15s are easier to be made between many small manufacturers in the US. Honestly the switch the CNC machining in the modern day really makes stamped receiver productions more expensive than the alternatives.

Killed it??? Your kidding right? 😂. You must not have been around years ago with the AK-74 fiasco. PSA’s track record isn’t that much better… Ask us guys who were there years ago for the AK-74 fiasco. PSA’s major problem with new items…. They get everyone excited and everyone orders the first generation, then they start changing or “improving” things and/or stop supporting the guys the bought into the first Gen stuff. Ask me how I know! I am looking at a first generation PSA AK-74 lower that I bought and at the time was waiting on a lower parts kit on back order. We started having major function issues with the Gen 1 units (I had a factory built Gen 1 unit at the time as well). Then PSA decided to “make it better” with a second generation version. The shitty part is the lower parts kit for Gen 1 was stopped being produced and when all us Gen 1 AK-74 lower holders asked to get it upgraded to a Gen 2 so we could build it out…PSA said tough shit, go buy the Gen 2 lower. So I am looking at a PSA AK-74 Gen 1 lower paperweight that has been sitting on my desk for several years now. I vowed never to support PSA again and I live in SC and am only 45mins from them. So yes..they are great in coming out with unique products but they change it so fast you will get left holding the bag in time! Good luck with this one! 😂

@Beavis4pres Жыл бұрын

Yay!!! Wanted one of these. I held off on getting the Schmeiser 22 version, hoping for a 5.56, 7.62, or even a 9mm version to be made. I had always wondered there was a possibility to do the STG44 upper on an AR lower, or somehow capture the cheap modularity of the AR platform mated with a retro build. I was never looking for a mirror image repro, but something to capture the spirit of the original but shoot well.
