IVAN is the shit!
that shit is hilarious. I even have a sks witha 'bad fit receiver cover' !
LOL, what IVAN doesn't know is I added two spot welds to the bottom and file fitted to the receiver. Never once has now lost it's zero.

I fix anything . I don't give a shit if its romanian or not. I don't have piles of cash to sit around here and bitch like negative nancy above that they aren't all fully auto.
Go suck a dick with your expensive guns, my shit works perfectly fine and doesn't shoot a caliber not capable of shooting through a 6" tree! plus it DIDNT cost over a 1000 dollars. Get that shit through your head.
7.62 ammo weighs what - twice as much as .223 and still costs way less?
If that isn't a good enough reason to buy an AK , NOTHING IS!
Actually I would like to have some of those 1000 dollar ak's . Those are real damn nice, very reliable weapons that won't bitch and moan if they aren't cleaned.
there are arguements for everything, but saying they have to be fully auto is retarded.

WTF are you smoking? Whatever it is I want some of it. I've yet to see 1000 rounds of 7.62 for under $300, which you can get 1000 rounds of .223 for $289.

I think he meant x39, not x51.

If you're really wanting to use shitty ammo then here you go... same price for .223

I would run shitty ammo through an AK but not through an AR.

IMO shitty is shitty ammo regardless of what you run it through, to each his own.

Yeah, the ammo is shitty but not the gun.

Would you run drip gas through a new Ferrari? I would run it through my 1982 Chevy Scottsdale

Regardless of what I shoot I'm not running shitty ammo through it whether it be an AR/AK/ etc... that's just my personal preference but I'm not running the most expensive ammo through it either. A comment was made about 7.62 ammo being way cheaper... sure if you want to compare shitty ammo to mid grade ammo it's cheaper but you can get the same ammo in .223 for the same price so the argument about ammo being way cheaper doesn't hold water. But that's just my opinion.

AK's will eat anything. They're not very accurate, pretty sloppy as far as construction, and loose as a goose. Shitty ammo all day long, why waste money on it? It would shoot the same no matter what you put in it. AK's are good for fun, decent for varmint shooting within 100 yards. But as a business, marksmanship, or hunting weapon they're not the best choice. In their original designed purpose they are automatics. shooting a 6" group at 100 yards doesn't mean shit when you put 8 rounds in that group in a second - they are very effective for combat. No one here is in combat, no one here is shooting an automatic, so the point Alex made is sound from that respect.

I've argued this point more times than I can remember. The way I personally feel is they are great fun, but they are a go-nowhere weapon as far as expandability. Optic mounts are a bitch, cost a fortune, and most don't work worth a shit without a lot of work. So as long as you're within 100 yards, they do fine.

I like AK's because I can buy cheap shitty charcoal-laden steel ammo and bump fire them until they burst into flames. I treat them like any respectable russian would - like shit. I like that I can get cheap x39 ammo and I don't have to screw with reloading it. But if it's your first weapon, it's pretty limited and probably not the best choice for flexibility imho. If you have a few AR's, bolt guns, and have a decent collection, an AK is fun for fucking around.

But you'll put a shitty scope on your 10/22?

[CJ]

I wouldn't call a Vortex a shitty scope.

Shitty scope by who's definition Adam, yours? Last time I checked it wasn't your gun, so what's it to you anyway?

I picked up a fully optioned romainian AK for $400 back in Sep but that was in GA.
