Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: What I am disputing is his 5 round string claim. 5.56 AR heats up faster than as 7.62 AK. During a 5 round stringfrom cold bore, the AK will not widen out 2-3". It starts there. As does an issue M4 with M855. |

Frequently I hear people on the internet say that AR15s break all the time because of the clips. Ugh, I mean the gun has a forward assist because of all the malfunctions it has, what a joke. After a lot of research, there's enough proof out there for me to decide which platform is best for militia use with my fellow oath keepers. Rattling plasticky guns that can't survive combat are not what a citizen warrior should use. Our colonels agreed and now we all use AKs. Crappy stoner rifles are toys for gun gamers and gecko-loving mall ninjas. Kalashnikovs are for true infantrymen. I hope you are trying to be funny.... Obvious satire is obvious. |

New member to this forum but not new to ak's . Ak-47 and Akm type weapons are late 1940's tech. The only thing i can say is the ak family of weapons are effective when zeroed and depending on country of origin and build quality i have a Romanian WASR-10/63 Underfolder with Wolf/Tula ammo that shoots like a milled Ak or a 5.56mm galil rifle. Its laser accurate like 1-2 inchs at 100 yards. I think someone should modernize the 7.62*39mm and 7.62*54R Rounds they are effective rounds.

Given a choice of using a K98 or an M1 Carbine for fighting in hedgerows or urban settings, I'd agree with them. If your enemy makes something useful, there's no reason to discard it just because you don't like them, or what they stand for. |

It will likely be smaller, no contention from me there, but saying the AK is inaccurate is just ignorant. What do you think 10-20rds of 270 or 30-06 would look like through a Standard, sporter-barreled Remington 700? I'd venture those rounds would start to walk as well, and yet you don't hear people saying the Remington 700 (or Savage, Winchester, fill in the blank) is an inherently inaccurate platform. My SGL-21 cloverleafs 3rds at 50yds with just a Bushnell TRS-25 red dot, so I'll see how it does as well. |

So, you're saying that a 7.62x39 bolt gun, like a CZ-527, is only capable of 4MOA, due to the round? Now I know you're just trolling. If shooting Russian steel cased crap, sure.

It was printing impressively with both 122gr HP Tula/Wolf, and so I decided to slow fire some of the 123gr Vmax, and that's the one that I took the picture of. You're still not shaking my confidence in my AKs. Try again. |

Quoted: Don't know, but that fact that 4 rounds of steel-cased 7.62x39 out of a thin barrel slow-fire stayed under 2" is pretty awesome, in my opinion. I also don't know what 10rds or 20rds would look like through a standard chrome-lined M4 w/ 4x scope, either. I love both platforms, but blanket statements about AKs being inaccurate irritate the shit out of me. I'd love to see what my gun will do, and will eventually put it back into that configuration, but as of now, it looks like this: http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m485/the444shooter/Snapbucket/6D71ED19.jpg I'd welcome you to do the same w/ a chrome-lined, M4 style carbine w/ 4x optics and no upgrades to the trigger. (mine is just a tapco as it came from Century) Please post the results of 10-20rds slow-fire, STEEL-CASED ammunition.

My SGL-21 cloverleafs 3rds at 50yds with just a Bushnell TRS-25 red dot, so I'll see how it does as well. It's... 4 rounds so it counts as a group-ish. Slow fire, four rounds... Doesn't really say anything about the gun's accuracy or yours as the shooter. While blanket statements may irritate you, there is a LOT of collective experience with AK's here, and the general consensus is that they just don't have "it" in the accuracy dept. As for your analogy with the Rem .270/ .30-06, I can tell you with experience that yes, they walk ALL OVER he place. Especially my Win M70 .270. I can only fire 4-5 rounds before the barrel becomes heat effected, and the groups open WAY up. 10-20 rounds? I'd be lucky to hold 7-8 MOA but I've never pushed it that far as there's no point. And yea, even though it's a hunting rifle meant to be fired only one or twice, no way would I call a factory pencil barrel accurate, especially for repeatable accuracy over a long string of rounds. I think many people in the PR field would agree. Thin barrels with poor if any post machining stress relief. The M4/ AR mechanical accuracy is pretty well established. The FN CHF barreled guns especially. I've shot a lot at 500 with irons, with M-16's it's a gimmie. Never had a problem running rapid fire strings with accuracy shifting. Then again that was all brass cased. Not that it really matters. One interesting thing, is how poorly most AK's are crowned. Had a buddy send a cheap WASR off to get something done to it, can't remember what, but he had the barrel match crowned as a joke to see what accuracy improvements there were. I had benched it with him at 100 before to set a baseline, and after it came back the groups were significantly smaller. Been a long time but IIRC it went from 5" groups to 3.5-4". I guess that's the crux of the issue when talking about AK's and accuracy, you may think it's ignorant that people call Ak's inaccurate, but the real question is, what is their level of mechanical accuracy? |
