Serbu 50BMG SEMI-AUTO taking orders.....

[mildcustom2]

Had an early HS 50. I would definitely lean towards the HS 50 M1 as my next purchase. It has the same rate of fire as an out of the box Serbu.

Please tell me how you compare the rate of fire for a bolt gun to a semi-auto? Kinda like comparing a cat to a dog.

You might want to do some back reading on this thread regarding issues with the function of the Serbu. It should be self explanatory.

I have read about all the issues including Kevin's range report. I also just went on YouTube earlier and watched several of these fire. The bolt sure seems to be incredibly slow moving as it cycles.

My preference would actually be the original HS50 over the M1. Something about that side mounted magazine just ruins the lines of the rifle for me.

I kinda like the mag on the side. The original looks a little on the sparse side to me. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Well since the slow moving bolt doesn't come back all the way to cycle the next round thus requiring you to do it manually you basically have a bolt action on your hands. Thus the ROF comment.

Lol yup.

Have you got your Serbu running or are you just going to sell it?

It's not running yet. I'm standing by to see if there are any signs of life from Dead Zombies or Serbu. I'm giving it 1 more week to see if either steps up to the plate and gets me this magical spring. I will form my final opinion, and decide what to do with this thing then. I'll keep you posted. If I sell it it will be a toss up between the HS 50 M1 or the Barrett 82

I will trade 2 non restricted swiss arms for this rifle

Good luck with the Barrett 82.

Ummm... wrangler doesn't need luck. Look at his username as a hint. I don't think getting a Barrett 82 is going to be a problem...
