What a shitty rifle.:D

J/K, they are not that bad, but for a little more $$ get yourself a Yugo M70 AK.

Why did I know you were going to say that?

I have a Hungarian that shoots almost as good as my AR's.

But for someone's first AK, there's no need to shell out a shitload of dollars-bottom line, it's still an AK. And definitely get an AR Nate (if you don't already have one) before getting an AK.

AK's work, as a testimony to the design. My Mak-90 shoots 5-6 moa, but it always shoots.

Me, for a first anything, I'd rather spend $375 to see how I like it vs. 6-1000 to find out that I might not like it. But hey, to each his own.

Hehe
I too had a WASR and was happy, until I had to dremil out the mag well a bit for my Chicom mag to fit.

Don't get me wrong its an AK and it functioned fine($375), but looked like ass compared to my Yugo's ($450-500).

I'm thinking about a Aresenal 106 or building a Khyber pass AK, just gotta see what my TDY is gonna be.

I've got a nice AR. I just feel the need to get a commie gun should the socialist up in Seattle ever get out of check

Time for some humble pie. I'll eat my words. WASR's suck. I returned my first one because it jammed. Just cleaned the cosmoline off my second one and I can already tell that I'll have problems as the bolt does not work smoothly and in fact gets stuck halfway just working the action by hand.

OK. Let's go for some esoteric one-upsmanship. How many of you yahoos have actually been SHOT by an AK?

I bought the 12 guage, its the only AK I own that I didnt personnaly build.

It called a Saiga 12 and of course it is imported from Russia.

I think it's a testament to the AK that in spite of its extra weight, at least one man on about half of L Company's teams carried one.

Time to Obama flipflop...I got 2 wasr's now, only shot one so far, and it's a keeper!

This picture is AWESOME!!! One of my Ranger buddies has a picture of us holding AK's when we briefly traded with CPTP over in the 'Stan. But, other than finding them on raids, and a quick weapons fam, we didn't get to do much with them.

Love the pic. It shows us what it was like "back when it was hard"!

RLTW!
