It is the Glock of rifles. Although I greatly appreciate the Garand, M1A, AR, HK, and FAL, the AK is king. Can you be your own gun smith? Do you know what spare parts are needed? All mechanical devices break, malfunction, and require maintenance and you may not have the time to learn and deal with these issues, then the AK is for you. It will run without lubrication, with mud, sand, snow, water, and rust in the receiver and in extreme cold. If the bolt won't at first cycle, take a rock, boot, or tree limb and smack the charging handle with brute force, and it will run again. Buy the highest quality AK possible, there is a ton of junk out there. Unless well versed in the AK, buy new in the box. Mac 90's are highest quality for the lowest price. Arsenal brand is arguably one of the better and more expensive. Get 6 or more 30 round steel Com-Block mags.<br /><br /> If one lives in the wide open country side, then perhaps a more accurate rifle is needed. Most AK's are accurate enough out to maximum of 150 yards, yet most will find hitting a moving target at 200 yards is not realistic and most of what we'll have to deal with will be within 50 yards.<br /><br />Use soft point ammunition or Wolf Military Classic HP, but not the stuff in the black colored box. The wound ballistics on the FMJ are not impressive yet it does work. Study Faclker and others. The experts conclude that no cartridge will guaranteed put'em down instantly unless hit in the central nervous system. As hunters do to make sure the game does not get away and dies 'humanely', use expanding/fragmenting bullets. Law enforcement uses soft point ammunition in their rifles. At least run SP every other round. It is worth the extra cost because it makes the firearm so much more effective. Shoot an FMJ at a gallon jug of water, then use the SP. You will be impressed. Be concerned about the dopers, the Meth heads, the speed freaks and the like that are common here, that will loot and kill for their drugs and then food. Don't expect these guys to stop just because they have been shot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-19314037750251002872009-12-26T08:07:54.582-08:002009-12-26T08:07:54.582-08:00I keep a G23 on my hip, a Mossberg 12Ga. handy, an...I keep a G23 on my hip, a Mossberg 12Ga. handy, and an M4 with a 30 round magazine in my gun safe.<br /><br />someone comes in the front/back door uninvited, they be dealt with promptly.BulgarWheatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-60005026639710891262009-12-25T21:13:06.377-08:002009-12-25T21:13:06.377-08:00Mayberry,

You'll find a lot of the firearms you need and at very reasonable prices. I've found that most sellers are very open to negotiating, so always push the limits a bit on how low your initial offer is.Jedinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-70676050047030587892009-12-25T16:49:10.386-08:002009-12-25T16:49:10.386-08:00my experience with the saiga12 left me unimpressed...my experience with the saiga12 left me unimpressed, it did not reliably cyclereconnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-79654381259100563082009-12-25T15:32:31.332-08:002009-12-25T15:32:31.332-08:00Loquisimo must either be a troll, an idiot, or “ve...Loquisimo must either be a troll, an idiot, or “very crazy” – he wants a rifle in 22lr, but maybe a Winchester 73 (30-30 is standard) or a Garand (30-06 or .308)? And he wants a .50 cal pistol, but doesn’t think a 12 gauge shotgun (would be .73 cal if it was measured that way) is big enough?Jacknoreply@blogger.com
