      Are there any good AKs left?

      My goal with this thread was to possibly uncover some unknown resource of quality AKs, without paying to have them converted, paying custom shop costs with long waits, etc. I do think every Rifleman should have one, if for no other reason than their prolific reliability. Me personally, I'd like...

      A debate as old as .45 vs 9mm, AK vs AR...

      Yeah I've heard the constant compression vs. Spring cycles debate. That seems to be the point of contention that is permanently trapped in a loop of debate. The feed lips are another animal altogether. Unlike Glock magazines that have a steel sleeve inserted, the PMags are entirely made of...

      I'm new and your 50-post rule sucks! Please change it for my convenience.

      It's sad when you find the tags to be more entertaining than the thread itself, or that this is an ongoing debate spanning in the thousands of posts. Rules is rules. Period. End of Story.

      Picture uploads when selling gun

      I had no issues uploading, but the pictures were inverted. Dunno why. Didn't really care enough to attempt a fix.

      A debate as old as .45 vs 9mm, AK vs AR...

      2nd gen PMags. Can you store them long term loaded? Okay, so maybe not as legendary as the arguments stated in the subject but the question stands. Has any ever come to a decisive conclusion on this? Tried it out? Loss of functionality over time?

      Are there any good AKs left?

      Midwest Gun Exchange in Mishawaka had two VEPRs, standard AK47 config with the poly furniture and a VEPR-12, and it was literally 1 day after they announced the "economic" ban. Barked at UB that we had to get those on Layaway but by the time we scraped up the $200 down, they were gone. Atlantic...

      Are there any good AKs left?

      Generally, I go to the AK Operator's Union for AK reviews and the RAS-47 and C39 are pretty Garbage, near as I can tell. Furniture splitting, falling off, finish is junk, loose parts and hacksaw machining. I don't really go to Mr. Yeager for anything except maybe to hear another bald guy talk?

      Are there any good AKs left?

      Yeah see the Arsenals used to be top of the line but watching AKOU videos where Rob Ski did a torture test on one, it appears the finish went to crap. He was having issues with it bubbling around the gas tube and I think there may have been some mechanical issues in there as well. I was...

      Are there any good AKs left?

      With the (somewhat) recent ban on Vepr's, it seems like there are no more High end, but not necessarily custom, AK47s being made. What companies are you guys familiar with that are putting out high end AKs along the lines of the VEPR? Rifles that are generally readily available at around $1k...

      WTS: 1851 Navy Colt replica

      SOLD Looking to part ways with this Italian clone. I always thought it was more of a Griswald with the brass backstrap as opposed to steel, but there it is. My Father received this as a gift from a client back in the late 90's and never showed any real interest in it. I received it back...

      Union Belle refuses to holster. Thoughts?

      Yeah I sincerely doubt the army was cool with the "look mom, no hands!" technique but my assumption was always they had more pressing matters in Fallujah. Honestly, i've tried pointing out the garment bunching up in the trigger guard AD, with a demonstration utilizing a snap cap, but I just...

      Union Belle refuses to holster. Thoughts?

      So the Old Lady carries a 3rd gen Glock 26. No holster. She just does the "ghetto tuck" (tucks it inside the waist band, but at the small of her back.) Gun is loaded with one in the pipe. So my point of contention with her is that I don't feel like the gun is secure, or the trigger is protected...

      Glock release

      I was really looking forward to trying out the 19 in 5th gen but it looks like that cutout would ruin it for me. I think i'll need to stick with the 17. My pinky rests right where that cutout would be but fingers crossed I can hold higher up without the finger grooves. Heck, I may just have to...

      Glock release

      For me it's all about being able swap the controls. No more finger contortions on my strong hand (left) like on my 3rd gens. That's an affirmative on the copper release goop. There's still a bit in the crannies of the Old Ladies G26 we bought about a month ago. It won't last long with the way...

      H&K customer service.

      Germany's God awful export laws, in conjunction with our God awful import laws, has over the years convinced many an enthusiast that H&K hates them. At least that's how I understood it. Seemed ridiculous they would be against your money though...

      Gunsmith

      I'm with gregkl on this one. Seems even well established smiths with store fronts are pretty mediocre at best. A long running Gunsmith in my area tells me "we don't do that" at least twice as often as he extorts my money. I've always found myself working on guns more often than I actually shoot...

      New glock next week?

      I can't believe I actually forgot about this until a day later. I'm sold though, I'll be picking up a 17 asap.

      Range Question, any issue with doing this?

      I've never had any issue shooting steel plates from short distances if they're free hanging on a chain. The round generally deflects down into the ground directly behind the target. Teaching the kids to shoot has been another issue altogether as the shooting lane sits directly between the barn...

      Apparently, Canada is having some of the same gun control issues we do!

      There's a gentleman on Youtube that is an avid shooter and lives in Canada. His videos (so far as I've seen) are strictly about the politics of gun control in Canada and what's going on so far as that goes. I can't for the life of me recall his name but he shouldn't be too tough to find. I think...
