you like them the rest of us are probably going to ignore you for it however. a scoped AK is not a "sniper rifle" a rifle being operated by a trained sniper is. the 7.62x39 makes for a dismal sniper round due to crappy loading in the ammo and the fact that it drops like a rock past 200 meters. it does however make for a great short range deer round. |

What is interesting however is that U.S. snipers in Iraq report that almost all of their shot are under 200m. |

Yeah, but I challenge ANYONE to consistantly hit someone in the eyeball at 200meters with an AK. That is the difference. The AK-47 is an effective spray and pray weapon. An accurate Lead Delivery Sniper Platform it is not. |

AK sniper rifle? Is that the rifle you use when your scoped, gold plated desert eagle with a bipod runs out of ammo? AKs are for poor people, not snipers.

At 200 meters with mil/surp or mil issue ammo? You're kidding right? If not, I need to re-evaluate an AK.

Man I hate hearing that, "sniper", sounds like something advetrised on GunsAmerica...lol... "sniper", "rare", "tactical", "assualt" and "pre-ban" are my favorite BS advertising lines.
We are talking AK's, its either a clone or a Hybrid.  To get back to the topic...lol... Here is a pic for ya. By no means a "sniper" rifle, its just a rifle with a optic, like all other AK's.  |

The 5.45mm rifles can get to (and under) the 4 MOA figure you're quoting. I will agree that I haven't seen the 7.62 AKs do it though. Maybe the VEPRs or Saigas or better grade AKs? |

I have a 3 X 9 power Leupold scope on my Sar-2 (5.45 X 39) rifle and was getting 2-3 MOA. This is with letting the barrel cool off between shots. I was very impressed. Ammo was Barnaul 55 grain soft points.

I use a posp 4x24 scope on my Sar-1. It's an awsome combo.
I do shoot the "Mini Pin" competitions, but I also just "Practice Shoot" at an Outdoor Public Range (100 yds). As far as your first statement, I have 4 friends (witnesses) that would agree with YOU about an AK being a sniper rifle! I shot a FRESH "RED" APPLE (Try THAT with a "RED DOT"! I DARE YOU!) that was sitting on the ground, at 100 YDS., and I put "30 RDS" into it, WHILE IT WAS STILL ROLLING! This was all done with Wolf ammo. Man, that stuff is the shit! |

instead of giving the man a fish, why don't you teach him how to get his own.
LEET speak http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet it can be as differnt ad substituting a 4 for an A (they look similar. Or as weird as spelling half a sentence with /\ [ | % //\|//| and stuff like that. E = 3 H = # K = % | \/\/ ||| %||| U = I will kill you /\|| U N33d is |u \ / 3 = all you need is love etc, use your imagination. |

oh yeah and it can only be a true "sniper" AK if you have a collapseable AR15 stock on it.
and you need an AR15 style pistol grip, and an A2 flash hider. otherwise its just not a "sniper" ready rifle |

Well guess I'll throw my 2 cents in.
The most "Accurate" 7.62x39mm AK I've ever seen was a NHM-91 with a side-mounted non-military hunting scope. ( I forget the brand ) It easily shot 2-3" groups at 200 yards with Chinese FMJ ammo ( was a few years ago ). This was shot from a bench at a range with the AK resting on sandbags. Supposedly IRAQ made a scoped long barrel 7.62x39mm "sniper" AK. I've seen a few pics here and there. While it's not exactly a sniper weapon, I would not like to be a trooper over there being shot at with one in the hands of a somewhat "good shot" rebel insurgent. |

actually, after the first hit, it would be realatively easy to hit it again, as it would be spread out over a 10 foot radius... rather hard to miss teh apple after that. I would say ...

t#@t ${ [] p 3 1$ t3# $#!4 I once took my 2 MOA sks with open sights, put a receiver cover mount and a 4 power on it, and turned it into a 12 MOA sniper rifle. but at least it still shot better than that 303 british I had, where you could drop a bullet down the barrle and hear it rattle it's way down, it was about a 1000 MOA scoped out sniper rifle.

Doesn't "Sniper" mean "firing from cover"?
After all, the sniper in Full Metal Jacket used an AK. I saw it in a movie, it MUST be true! its just a step less authoritative then the internet! |
