I heart me sks.

sorry had to tease ya wolfiet.

a little info. the ak47 is a machinegun the sks is a rifle. two very different class of firearms. this is why the whole which is better an m16 or an ak47 argument is retarded. I guess whats good about the sks is while ammo for my 5.56 is getting harder and harder to find 7.62 x 39 is still pretty cheap and easy to find. Im thinking about getting a mosin nagant since they are really cheap too.

I always thought the AK47/ m17 were Assult rifles..and that these were Machine Guns

No! that is a rain of death that i want to stick on the front of my car the next time i drive through traffic in Sydney!
the modern Ak 47 has a fully auto mode, in addition to a three round burst, and of course, single shot.
technically it functions as a machine gun, and a lower end rifle.

The ak is a light machine gun, its main use is to shoot in the general direction of the enemy and after some hundred rounds your bound to hit something. When you remove the safety, it goes directly to full auto, then semi.

The M16 is a rifle, made too actually hit something with minimal bullets spent. When you remove the safety, it goes to semi, then to full auto.

This explains the major diffrences between the two.

You've had to explain this before haven't you? rofl

[the red soldier]

I'm passionate when it comes to russian weaponry........ or russian stuff in general.

[Wolfiet]

The Russians sure know how to make a weapon, many of the SKS's that have seen duty still survive today, and they are still in working order. meanwhile an American made rifle can't seem to fire wafter getting wet a couple times...

[the red soldier]

There have been known cases of ak's being buried for decades and still working when they dug them up.

Glocks are an excellent make. My dad has been -redacted- The trick is to know the difference between one thats had a ton of rounds through it or not. The best way is to remove the slide and examine the action for small wear marks. More wear=more rounds. Granted on a glock it would take a crapload of rounds to kill it but still...

I'd like a pistol too, but I'd probably just opt for a .22 to just have something to play with on the weekends.

Please tell me your dad has an FFL. Otherwise, edit your post. Admitting to felonies on the internet that can land you (or someone you love) 10 years in federal prison is a bad idea.

Last time I checked it was perfectly legal for private individuals to buy and sell guns on their own terms as long as they aren't full auto or otherwise illegal. If thats not true then half of the midwest should be going to jail, myself included

I have a lot of respect for Russian made weapons, my Nagant is a work of art, thing was built back in 1943 and is still in amazing working order. Ended up putting a new stock on it cause the classic wooden stock was in such good condition I didn't want it to get scratched. From what I've experienced Russian weapons were built to take a beating and keep on goin'.

The only good thing Russia ever exported was vodka and Kalashnikovs.

...glad you could actually ya know, contribute something worth while to the conversation that wasn't spam like nonsense. /sarcasm

I'm planning on getting a mosin nagant model 44, the one with the built in beyonnet. Only problem is that I found it in the states and will have to find a legal way to bring it in Canada.

Yeah my friend has a M44 and it's a beast, thing is even louder than my 91/30, he cut the bayonet off though, I think he should left it it looked so much nicer. But it's a lot of fun, kicks a little harder than mine does, when we go to the range together folks turn off their car alarms, we tend to set them off through the walls of the range.

I found a m44 at a local gun dealer for 169. then online for 79 shipped to the ffl. Hmmmm.
If next paycheck wasnt meant for bills lol then sig of course had to release a badarse 556 variant in .22lr which Im now first on the waiting list to purchase. I bought my sig too early in the game. now they have swiss furniture folding collapsable stocks and diopter sights.... that'll teach me lol
