Leave cold

Talking about the AK = Greatest thing and M16 = trash

Wow,

    I haven't seen/heard that much misinformation since the last gun show I went to.

It's impossible for liberals to discuss guns without saying "AK47's and UZI's".
It's all they know.
Just like a pull-string doll bleating a pre-recorded saying..

"AK47's and UZI's".

Pay no mind to the fact that if you laid an AK47 and an UZI on a table with a few dozen similarly "mean looking" rifles, they wouldn't be able to identify them to save their lives... No, all they know is that "AK47's and UZI's" are bad and by-gum, they should be banned (even though they don't know what an "AK47" or an "UZI" is)

"AK47's and UZI's".

Its a good intermediate range rifle.

I wish the import ban and machine gun ban would be lifted so that US civilians could own these.

You mustn't discount the fact that AK47's will be a preferred weapon of the average DU'er since they are essentially a hop, skip, and a hump away from being full fledged communists.

I once laid out a .50 BMG round, a .30/06, .308, 7.62x39, a 5.56 and a .22 round out and told a lib to pick the assault rifle and the deer rifle round out.

They picked the 5.56 out as the deer round and the .50 BMG as the AW round.


What do you expect?

Sadly, our troops have been under-equipped since...

The Garand left service. I shot both the M1 and M-14 in competition and in comparision the M-16 is a travesty. A ^&%$ing TOY.

But it seems that giving our troops substandard is ok...at long as you "support" them!  



Bring back the M1!!!!!!

I'm no ak expert, but don't those look like Global Trades dimples on those receivers?  I thought original dimples were narrower, almost like taking a cold chisel and smacking the receiver with it.

It's good for the sand conditions too. It resists jamming like the other rifles constantly do.

It is a little known fact that Mikhail Klashnikov, inventor of the AK-47, was such an ardent communist that he designed the sights of the AK so that you must fire with the stock on the left shoulder.  The AK has earned a poor reputation of accuracy in the United States because most people insist on incorrectly firing from the right shoulder.

Will someone please post the above statement on the DU site?  I can't bring myself to do it.  I'm allergic to the acid fumes.

The vast majority in the tech forums on this site, and anywhere on this site, are considered liberals, socialists, communists, and fascists.  Very few people here are actually conservatives, yet there is a lot of good info here.

A few weeks ago at lunch I listened to a lib saying how all of her family was in the military and they had no want or need for guns at home. "They're only good for killing people, that's why you get them in the military." May God have mercy on your ignorant soul, you bitch.

She started this rant because my buddy and I were sitting at the next table reading a 6 inch stack of Guns and Guns and Ammo.

There's no changing their minds, it doesn't seem. No matter what you're witty answer is, they have 593 "facts" they got from CNN to make you look bad in front of their lib posse. They seem to flock. Maybe 40 wrongs makes a right?

...guns... they're only good for killing people...


How true!!!

The only thing a gun is supposed to do is punch a hole in a human, or an animal. Guns are designed to KILL. Guns are not designed to serve any function other than killing. Target shooting, while considered a sport by many, is nothing more than a form of practice to improve the marksmanship of the person using the gun so they can become more proficient in hitting their intented target - to kill that target, to KILL a human or an animal!!!

Pfft, they'll be lucky if they can even identify an AK to buy one. The smarter ones will probably end up with an SKS or Ruger Mini-14. As for ammo, they'll never get the right caliber; they'll ask the guy at Wal-Mart for "assault rifle ammo" and get all confused when the clerk keeps asking what caliber they want. "It's for an assault rifle!" "Yeah, I got that. What caliber?" ".... It's for an assault rifle, aren't they all the same? Just give me some assault rifle bullets!" "...... Here's some .22lr, don't hurt yourself."

Most of the gun-toting libs would be idiots with a .38 revolver or "deer rifle" collecting dust on the top shelf of a closet somewhere. If they had any ammo on hand, it would likely be only one box and partially expended, especially if they inherited the gun. There would be several ND's while trying to load or operate the firearm, causing them to become further rooted in their belief that guns are dangerous rather than accepting the fact that they are complete and utter morons who have no place owning a gun, operating a motor vehicle, or doing anything more complicated than ordering at Starbucks.

I thought you were supposed to be banned from DU for talking about baby-killing assault rifles.  I mean, the only reason they exist is to kill babies right?  We can't be having people walking around with baby killing machines, can we?

Ignorance is really our biggest hurdle, IMO.
The people who most want to take away our rights, know the least about them.

I think it's cute that DU has finally realised that gun control is a loser issue, several years after one of their "prophets" said as much.
