you should ship me some:tup:

I've thought about selling some, but i just figured keeping them would be better. I was giving some out as gift and even donated like three boxes to a charity raffle for a local gun club.

I might be willing to trade for shado nudes tho....:icon17:

PM'd

Bought another AK-47. I couldn't help myself, I bet import of this stuff becomes a PITA soon enough, and wanted a back-up. Also, I'm OCD. I can train with one, ding it up, etc, and look at and pet the other :P

It'll buff out.

:icon17:

Does Mazda make a buttstock...

I love my AK. Not precision rifles, but don't let the hype fool you. THEY ARE combat accurate. In other words. It's not hard at all to hit a Torso sized target out to 300 yds with some practice. More than enough range for defense/offense and every other kind of fence... :tup:

The AR, i would call precision because with the right ammo and barrel twist.(18"barrel) You can make guaranteed head shots from that same range. But hey, Combat doesn't require 300yd headshots. Thats a whole other game.

:pics:

Zed, perfect opportunity to replace that stock with purple heart wood :yum:

First one arrives this Wed, not sure when the second one will. Arsenal is pretty backed up, so in the mean-time, will a "Stock Photo" suffice?

I love my Noveske M4's, but I have shot enough stuff to know that 7.62x39 tears "stuff" up, does way better on automobiles, and is much better at punching cover---at least when using cheap FMJ.

Anyway, I feel that while my Noveske rifles are VERY reliable (because I run them hard and they work just fine, clean, dirty, whatever), I think that while the envelope I run them in, they are okay with, the AK-47 would allow me to expand that envelope further. Not that I would, but then, using a firearm in self-defense is not about clear-cut, neat and tidy envelopes of performance. I might very well trip and fall into a puddle of muck and then need my firearm to drop a vicious dog or something on my property. Who knows? AK covers more of that.

I am expecting 1-3MOA out of these rifles. They are Bulgarian milled receiver guns, made in Bulgaria, except for a few trigger-group components, and the furniture, at Arsenal of Bulgaria, and they make good AK's. These are not the US finished receivers, they were made and milled in Bulgaria. If I get better than 3 MOA, I will be happy.

I also bought 2 US PALM Battlegrips for them, and Jim Fuller sights. I am waiting for the AK Battlecomp to be in stock, or for more reviews on the Manticore Nightbrake.

where do you order them?

:tup:

Nice AR... Is that a DD?

Yeah, you need to own both... AK and AR, both do the job well. I would really like an AK-74M. 5.45 is just a ridiculous good and accurate round.

Side Note. I just paid $35 for (2) 6.8 mags brand new. It feels good paying normal prices in this market.

yep, V7.

Goodies were supposed to show up today, but delayed by the weather:(

I feel like a 5.45 AK would be too much overlap with my M4 platforms. Worse round, imo.

k-var

but so cheap to shoot

If you're into corrosive, sure. I don't mind the cost so much when it's $1-200 per thousand. Especially when it means non-corrosive ammunition to boot.

From Magpul:

Nice!!! Good for them.

Ballistic tests show a slightly different story, but not by a huge margin. Both are equally respected. The modularity of the M4 though will suffice the mild deficit. I wouldn't own one to replace an M4. Just for historical value and cheap ammo fun .

finally got in on some 5.56. 1050 rounds inbound, mix of 855 surplus and black hills match ammo.

TLR-1 ordered, still waffling on optic. Probably going to wind up with an Aimpoint but can't help but wonder if I should go Eo or get a 1-4X...

Jumping on the Magpul fast track to snag qty 20 20 round mags and get my lightweight KISS build done...then I'll need to build a gun for myself....

OK, the aimpoint pro came in stock at $380 so I jumped on it.

Somebody please take my credit card away. Between furniture and guns I'm about to go broke.

I have yet to see an equivalent to the 5.56 Brown Tip SOCOM round in 5.45 caliber.

Similar problem.

ND is working on passing a bill that will allow CC to be carried in schools and churches

The nut-n-fancy project on you tube has an excellent video thread on different optics and philosophy of use. Check it out.

You know you are truly a shooting enthusiast when you can sit through a whole nut-n-fancy video and then watch another:icon17:

I hope hickenlooper does the right thing. My brother and I would much rather move to CO than TX next year.

You're pulling out EXPENSIVE specialized ammo. I'm talking about the equiv ammo. i'm sure if our ammo makers took the time to invest in russian ammo. we can most definitely exceed your example. Some private reloaders do some amazing things with AK rounds. AR have more options sure, but basic 5.45 ammo can perform better in some cases than SOME of the specialized AR ammo. @ $10 a box. I can definitely put faith in 5.45 basic ammo considering the huge wound channnel that thin round leaves.

lol. It can be a little tedious to watch his videos but he really thinks things through before he puts out a vid. He's 95% accurate and he gets on a lot of guns. i sit through a lot of those types of reviewers just to get aggreeing and opposing perspectives and re-evaluate my thoughts as solid or weak.

My fav is hickok45. Second fav would be MR.ColionNoir, followed by fateofdestinee and faliaphotography. :tup:

But I do watch nutnfancy if the topic interests me.

I'll have to try and check it out. I never use youtube because I'm always on my phone and I'm impatient.

move to CO and help us swing the vote!

We know so many people in CO too. My half-brother's step sister lives there and I have cousins. But there is no sunset clause in these bills. meaning it would require active legislation to overturn them, rather than letting them expire. :(

Also, on topic, Crimson Trace laser grips still for sale yall.

Hickok is hysterical. I love watchin em and his little amusement park of shooting lol. He busts off some nice stuff. But hickok loves everything he shoots. For him not to like a gun it has to be horrible

I enjoy many of those channels. But i really like gunblast.com channel.

You can tell if hickok doesn't like something because slightly under his breath he will say "hmm. how bout that" i mean how obvious do you have to be :roflpuke2:

He does like almost everything. But the key to finding out what he likes most is if he has the gun in multiple videos. like you know he loves his single action army and scar 17 and glocks.:tup:

we got VA to overturn their bar CCP ban. It can be done.
