OMG someone having fun shooting an AK...

AK47 - Do you know your firearm as well as an ex soldier ? - YouTube

These guys are hilarious. The running joke at my gun club is that the old fudds don't like it when you enjoy shooting, so OMG he is shooting an AR and having a blast! Give him the stink eye that must be illegal!

How much you want to bet if you took a full mag and stuck it into that dried out old AK it would put it all down range?

Not a doubt, though as far as crusty old AKs go, both in the video look like they're in good, if not great, shape. The first's got some patina, but it seems to have held up well.

Hell, I think I've cleaned my Saiga 12 maybe once, and it'll still chew through any garbage shells I can get my hands on. Simply marvelous device, the Kalashnikov.

I ran into a Swiss fellow on holiday at the bar this evening. He personally owns two full auto weapons in addition to his issue assault rifle. It's all good there, but with some restrictions and inspection requirements. He showed me some videos and pics (before we got him effed up). Switzerland=good.

Got to shoot 7 or 8 full auto's in Las Vegas last week. Full auto AK is a lot harder to keep on target than the auto .556's were. Pushed me around a lot. AK's are an acquired taste, not as fond of it with its heavier load as I am the AR platform. AK's fire selector was awkward.

Uzi was easiest to shoot, less recoil and a heavy weapon that's easy to keep on target with its 9mm cartridge.

Glock 18 9mm auto pistol was the most fun but was empty in a heart beat at 1200 rnds/min. Truly spray and pray, I'd keep my Hi-Power and a controlled rate of fire.
