Did anyone forget to thank Chinese man for all those very nice Polytech AK-47s we got?

Personally, I like my AK as much as I like my AR, the AK being the prefered weapon of our enemy and the AR being one of our prefered weapons to destroy our enemy. My AR is, by far, the primary weapon of choice. The AK is acknowledged for its rawness and durability. It can shoot just about anything you put in it. My AR is a bit more tempermental. But hey, the AR is a precision weapon. AK?AR? You gotta have both!

OK, so I'm IMAGINING it when I watch the videotape I have of the incident, which I recorded live off the news feed as it happened. Don't make the mistake of trusting your government. They are NOT trustworthy, except for one thing: They can be trusted to try to control all information as information is power. They want you to have no power and they want to keep it all for themselves. This is a fundamental rule of communism. I pray for the day when the Chinese people decide that they have had all the communism that they can stand, and they force a major change. CJ |

Don't be too hard on him, CJ. The Chinese government put a lot of resources into tracking down anyone who might have been involved in the protests at Tiannenmen Square. Those who weren't good at keeping a secret have been "detained" or worse. Poor tiengulden probably realizes that if he admits to any knowledge of that massacre on a public forum like this one, he'll be in the crosshairs. Perhaps literally. |

Eh, there's too many pics and stories for AK use by Americans in Vietnam to be total BS. However, I think the most likely reasons for it's use were either failure of the primary issued weapon (original M16 before the bugs were worked out) or loss of the weapon for whatever reason, or to confuse the enemy/for extended missions behind enemy lines where the situation dictates that enemy munitions are more available than American. Generally speaking, it's a no-no to use a non-issued weapon and soldiers have gotten in trouble for doing so without good reason. |

I would not say they were preferred, but were widely used. Using non-standard and enemy weapons was not nearly the "no no" that it is today. I know a number of gentlemen who used them frequently, partly due to their reliability and ease of ammunition procurement, but mostly due to their sound signature. Using AK's made it more difficult for the enemy to locate their targets in many situations. |

To say that without reasons simply puts you to the top of the Troll list. Notice how i said "RECON" meaning LRRP teams, There was an awesome array of weapons LRRP teams had available to them but the norm was to carry an AK, Yes i understand the reason of your enemy hearing their own weapon fired and how it would confuse them. But the Vietcong used every weapon in the book. Most vietcong did not use the AK47, the NVA used them, the vietcong used whatever they could get their hands on. Yes they did use AK's but not in huge numbers like potrayed in movies, their standard issue was the SKS. A fellow in a group of riders in my motorcycle club was a Ranger with the Recondo teams in vietnam and when i asked him which weapon he prefered in veitnam he simply said the AK, when i asked him why he said reliability. That says alot about a weapon when a soldier uses the enemies weapon because of its reliability factors. |

We are only free as long as our Government allows us to be free, if they cross that line then we must decide our fate. God forbid they every forcefully disarm us because the population would not stand for it but then again we did nothing while they burned over eighty people alive at Waco, Texas on national television.
I like my AK's because they are reliable but for the most part so are my AR's with a few exceptions. The new SIG looks promising to say the least. |

Same here pretty much. If it wasn't for the fact that my AR15 is so reliable, then I would consider the AK as my primary. Reason for the AK coming in second before the FAL is only because the FAL is so damned heavy. Once you have an AR15 that runs good(and it's not hard), it's damned near impossible to beat. Superior ergonomics, sights, accuracy, lighter weight and lower recoil impulse. Greater firepower and more mobility. #1 AR15 #2 AKM #3 FAL |

well when the military tells you to put 2 in the chest 1 in the head you lose the advantage of firepower when you have to put 2 or 3 time the shots in someone .........+ ak's are use by our enemy so it's not like you would have a hard time of finding ammo |

the AK is just a simpler more reliable weapon system,.. you dont need to spend nearly as much time cleaning and mantaining it, the magazines are made better/ more reliable
so you like the M-4a1's huh? i was issued one once,.its just a M-16a2 with a short barrel,....they are alot nicer with the collapsible stock,. removable carry handle/rear sight,..and with the foreend rail system with the plain vertical grip. im sure it is more appealing because where you are the ar is an exotic firearm,...and AK are kinda borring because they are everywhere,....it is the oppisite here i dont think ill ever own another ar,...after so many years in the Army,.. i am just sick of them,.. they are not all that everyone hype's them up to be. so what kind of firearms do they allow you to have in china? |

All i know is that the AR is a boring weapon to shoot. It puts holes in things, but they are small. For example, the other day my friend emtied a clip into a metal door removed from a car at the range. After he was done i shot around 5 rounds from my ak through it and the thing fell the hell over. I just dont like that the AR has almost 0 recoil and shoots such small ammunition. Knowing damn well that the likelyhood of using an AR or AK in a combat situation is damn near 0, the AK is a much better gun because it is simply more fun to shoot. Know with that said, the AK is unshootable now because there is no damn ammo left anywhere (unless of course i want to buy winchester at 11 a box of 20).

Depends on your ammo choice. Ball sucks in pretty much every caliber. If you could find some relatively heavy JSP's or JHP's in 5.56, you might have something useful. Same with 7.62x39. |

BTW......I SAW a few people in the countryside with single, open action shotguns, are they legal there?! I know they were not Police/Military, looked more like a farmers. |

I would have to agree alittle with motorcityman to a point. The LRRP could do it and get away with it because they was isolated from regular ground troops ( USA ) . And also it praboly would confuse the NVA with AK fire. Not all carried them. Ive read where some did and some chose not to.Parboly more chose not to and carried US weapons. My opinion only . But the Myth that US persoanl dropped M16's and carried AK's during the Vietnam war is not true . If you started shooting an AK in a fight most likely you would get shot by your own guys. It was pretty thick over there.... Im not implying that is what motorcityman meant either. The LRRP's could do it and there shouldn't be as big as a problem with getting killed by his own guys. The M16's was problematic.The M16A1's turned out to be good rifles. The goverment shouldn't have rushed the rifle into service till it could be tested fully. IMO WarDawg |

Ok I'll call  on that. Do you have a source for your information. I know a LRRP that served in Vietnam (he is a member of this board), he carried a XM177E2 and his statement was some guys would try it, but only once. Not a common thing at all.
