Anyone here into firearms?

I recently just bought an AK, it's a Romanian model with wood grip and wood stock. I've only shot it once so far but it's a lot of fun. A

I recently just bought an AK, it's a Romanian model with wood grip and wood stock. I've only shot it once so far but it's a lot of fun. A lot more accurate then I thought too. I just bought a tactaical rail for it so I could mount a scope for some outdoor shooting. Any suggestions on a good scope for up to 300 yards?

Aimpoint T1.

You're not popping ground-hogs, your putting them in the boiler-room.

Just my .02 on it. Save the Leupold for the deer rifle or DMR.

Your AK should hold 2-4 MOA with a good shooter and ammo, IMO.

Thanks for the reference, that sounds exactly like what I'm going for!

Congrats!

Suggested mods:

Ti tube
922r compatible Geissele hammer
Meprolites
Ti/A2 bolt hammer when Kip releases it again in black
Bolt-release that suites you (I preferred to "roll my own" instead of the GG&G or CMM or others available).

I only have 50 rounds though it but it was flawless.

For Summer carry The .380 is so small I hardly notice it.
Perfect with just a T-shirt.

I was considering the Ruger LCP but I liked the feel of the BodyGuard better.
Plus I like that the slide locks open after the last round, many of the .380's don't.

Also the sights are better than most .380's...
they are adjustable and not the little nubs you see on many of the mouse guns.

The Built in Laser is a nice extra too.
I'd recommend it for sure.

Not to get in a ballistics battle, but I was looking at getting my wife a bodyguard. Do you feel there's enough stopping power? Honest question, not trolling. I really do like the size of the gun and the fact it has a built in laser.

.380ACP is a compromise for sure. Can she not handle/is not willing to train with the 9mm?

If you must go .380, I recommend loading it with Corbon DPX.
