Lotsa ARs, No AKs

[bowtie]

Are all AK's imported or are any of them actually US built?

 

[Clay]

all the cool kids are rockin AKs now.....

 

[TheRude1]

ARs are gaining in popularity so fast, because Americans have finally figured out that they are far more reliable than the errornet would have some folks believe. Also, after about 30 years of continuous improvement and developement, the flat top has perfected the rifle is many ways.

May they all rest in peace !

I think in the last two mass shootings in the U.S. AR platforms were used and I think they both malfunctioned and things could have been worse.

Just one person with a handgun and some training could have stopped both shootings when that blk rifle malfunctioned but no one was CC
Glad they did'nt have a or many more people would have died

Yes some are made in the U.S.

A WASR would be better than a U.S. made one

 

[HavokCycle]

[bloodandgutsmurphy]

Try the 1500

Overpriced guns, crowded aisles, and smells that shall not be named.

If they would have had AKs then they wouldn't have hit anything. If you can spout baseless BS so can I.


I'll make you a deal. I'll give you the AK of your choise, a full combat load at a distance of 300 yards, and I'll do the same with an AR. We can then blaze away at each other until one is hit. I will gaurantee mine will not jam, and I'll fill it with dirt just to give you an edge.

ARs are wonderful. People sometimes avoid buying/selling AKs because of the red/evil/gangsta/whatever that they're often associated with. And the mags are ugly.

 

[cedartop]

AK47 is the most popular rifle in the world and ammo for one is bountiful and always useful. Gun sales have gone up in recent years and everyone wants an assault rifle.

I guess I wouldn't mind having an assault rifle, but full auto doesn't really appeal to me all that much.

While your point is taken, how many engagements outside of A-stan take place at 300 meters?

Ars are what we shoot.
Aks are what they shoot.

Simple as cake.

Anywhere, where distances for engagements of that distance could be common, such as areas where large open fields are common. If I'm looking for a fighting rifle, I want something that can cover the most bases, and one of those bases is predictable and reliable accuracy to 300+ meters.

AKs are what *I* shoot.

Simple as cake.

Not so simple where both sides are using FALs.

 

[TheWabbit]

Aks are what they shoot.

Simple as cake.

They are using whatever they have, including Enfields.

 

[jb1911]

I was kidding.

Almost all are foreign, or assembled with foreign part kits. Century recently built one called the Centurion, built with all US parts though, and a milled receiver.
