PING? - just one tone deaf man's perspective

I could hear mine pinging away after each shot with my electronic muffs

Neat! I gotta try that.

FWIW Laz, I didnt know about the ping or ring until I went to one of Tom and your clinics. I just shot mine, didnt try to make music with it until YOU showed me how!:p
 
If you really really want a "ping", get yourself a M1 . Now that is a "ping".

Thats what I was thinking too.

The sound made by the M1 just after the eighth round was fired and sound the enemy was waiting for to know that your rifle was empty and it was time to attack.......Fix bayonet....CHARGE
 
Barney, if you are planning a clinic out west anytime let us know, I have a Springfield M1A longing for your attention. I also have a Socom 16, courtesy Morpheus32, that loves any chance I give it to go out to the range! And neither cares what 'ping' noise it makes.

I wonder if that's my old Socom, in any case I'm glad its treating you well. I enjoyed mine (to expensive for me). Now I have a worked on Norc.
 
Haha, well the other day i was going to the range with the M14 and we hit a few bumps in the road I heard a few pings here and there. And I just got a vortex for my AR and the ping is beautiful.

:D

Or you could toss an empty clip on the ground and shoot the fools that rush out! :evil:
 
Took mine out for its maiden voyage yesterday, lotsa fun surprisingly accurate, for my son anyway. Couldn't hear any ping and because of you guys I was listening for it. Nice boom though, sounds softer than my bolt action stuff. Gotta get me some dies, this one's a keeper but she's a hungry #####.
 
i thought the ping test was for the flash suppresor? if it pinged it didn't have damage, cracks ect. but i will say after reading these posts, i had to try it. with a nm spring guide it does resinate quite long. not so much with a standard norinco gi type.

edit- i didn't mean calking your rifle the fs would ping. what i meant if you tapped the fs it should ping.

Only in video games, doesn't take too long to reload a M1 with another Enbloc clip and no enemy solider is going to risk their live because they heard a "ping", although if they can hear the ping they are way too close anyways. :eek:
