Wow. They have some pretty good deals! I have been looking for an SKS and just might get one from there, unless anoyne around here knows of a better place.... Good deals on ammo too!

Oh yeah, sweet ass AK!!! Wish I hadn't just bought a laptop, or I would have one of those too!

no that was definitly just you.

 
cool, i thought so, but didnt quite remember. (i think it was 1961 though, not '51?)

anyways, the AK family is prohibited in canada, but i'd like to get a SKS some time, hopefully yugo made.
 
Some other places you might want to look PTC is here and here for an SKS. A good place with good shipping on ammo (but out of stock) is here, I got my ammo and extra mags from centerfire. Shipping for a 1000rd crate was $14.50 to NE PA and is around $8 I think from cabelas.

I'm familiar with the strain, but I didn't think of it until you just reminded me.

"if he had simply said "becauuse i collect guns" that would have been fine. "

Ok, read my post again. I clearly stated that the gun is to be used for RANGE SHOOTING. I don't see me saying anywhere that it will be used to kill people, infact I said the opposite!

i never said you were gonn kill peopel with it. im sorry i missed that in the first post

jeez dude you didn't even read the whole of the first post

I've often wondered about this. I can't own a gun in Chicago. Isn't that an infringement on my rights to "keep and bear Arms"?

If you can't owna gun in Chicago, then you did something wrong.

 
Isn't your banana-style clip illegal? It is where I live. Unless its bottom-capped to only hold limited rounds. Nice rifle my friend.
 
neat...i find aks ugly though.... something aobut the wood clashing with the cheap metal.

I really like hk g3s though, same caliber but cost little more
 
"Isn't your banana-style clip illegal? It is where I live. Unless its bottom-capped to only hold limited rounds. Nice rifle my friend."

There's like two states it is, everywhere else it's legal. And it's a full 40 round magazine.

"neat...i find aks ugly though.... something aobut the wood clashing with the cheap metal."

All a matter of opinion. Some wouldn't trade wood for anything, while others love the black fiberglass look. Personally, I like both. When I have some more money I plan on getting an AK74 complete with black fiberglass foregrips, pistol grip, and stock. I think I'll leave this AK alone though 🙂

I was in error. Let me clarify. I cannot own a handgun in Chicago. Isn't that an infringement on my right to "keep and bear Arms"?
 
"What's next, an RPG and a few mines?"

lol, I'm a fan of just military rifles and handguns. Either way, no way in hell can you buy a RPG or any type of mines.

"Very, very nice. The question is can you shoot well with it..."

Thanks. We'll see how this baby shoots once I get my ammo, but the AK isn't exactly the most accurate rifle in the world. 🙂

"Sweet, full Auto or Civilian?"

Well, since I don't have a Class III firearms license, a semi auto. There are ways around that though...

"and WHY do you need this?"

Do you people even bother reading the whole post? To all the anti-gun monkeys, I don't want to hear it. No one will be killed with this rifle, it's a range gun.


YEA! I would take that baby out w/ me at night!

G3 is 7.62 NATO or also called 7.62x51, interchangeable with .308 Winchester
AKM is 7.62x39

Big difference between the two.....

 
Sweet... a AK for an Russian.. how fitting... which one is that? That one made in China I presume?

(hehe just watch Jackie Brown yesterday)
"AK47... when you want to kill every mothafvcka in the room... expect no substitute" 😀

However...I am a fan of the M14 and M4.
A russian friend tried to sell me a AK47 modified.. with longer barrel, Silenced and 4X scope :Q
for @2G's :Q I declined.. but the offer was awsome.. man I should have thought ahead. 🙁

If I were you man.. I'd invest in a nice 1911, maybe even a SoCoM.
 
Hehe KGB, yea I knew one day I was gonna end up with an AK. It's in my red Russian blood 🙂 And it's made in Romania. A really close clone of the original Ruski AK, second only to the Russian VEPR AK (which is 200-300 dollars more).

The other firearms which will be added to my collection over time will be an M1 Garand, M14, CAR15 with 20" barrel (M16 length), AK74, and definitely an M1911. Probably a couple others too, but those are the main ones.
