happy to learn that some AK variants are capable of accuracy!
I recently traded for a Bulgarian AK(by Arsenal)which has a milled reciever and was happy to learn that some AK variants are capable of accuracy!
I this have owned Egytian,Norinco ect,and until now I would have agreed with you,but the heavier reciever must make a difference.
I want MOA at least.
From an AK? Go 5.56, use good ammo and a good optic. Even then, though, I doubt you'll get there. The design of the gun just doesn't lend itself to high accuracy.
I like my AK, because it will take everything I trow at it, and still goes bang. I can run cheap *** ammo, and it will cycle. May not be pretty, and may not be the most accurate rifle. In a SHTF situation though, it would one of the first guns I would grab. I'm not going to use it to engage anything over 100 yards. To me it's a close in weapon, that packs punch!
Well put! Those are the exact reasons I own one.
