Good plan- the Internet never lies! :) Denis As long as you're sauve and take it from a number of sources, you're fine. Take Gunblast and, well, most every article they write .

I'd go for one of those Gen II models. Not that I expect to see one in my lifetime with the state of keltec's production. I've pretty much resolved myself to getting an AK pistol for the same approximate size, if not weight. If I did see one, it would be on my immedite do-not-ask-questions-buy-buy-b...

The revolver is fine. 44 mag is fine. But even not being an avid hunter, I know hollow points are NOT fine for most anything that size.

Panzercat

Never had a reason to open carry as part of regular day to day discourse. I can for see it in the right company or event, but no reason to stand out, ya know?

Panzercat

What did you have to sacrifice to get it at normal price? Who did you have to sacrifice?

Panzercat

I vote for higher twist rates. Mass doesn't lie and 1:7 or 1:8 can shoot it.
1:9 relies too much on velocity black magic and yawing witchcraft for my tastes.

Palmetto State Armory markets a nice flat-top carbine, usually around $500, a bit less in their frequent sales. A2 front sight, flat-top receiver ready for a scope or a carry-handle A2 rear sight.

but adding an AR to the stable is just another depreciating asset The people who sold their plain ol' vanilla ARs for thousands during Sandy Hook would disagree with you ;) But it is a comment I would qualify-- Your add-ons and AR bling are the depreciating aspect of that equation.

Took both out today for a limited run. Both are fully operational and shoot without problems. Action is smooth as snot, especially on that stainless one. Would figure if they've been shot a lot, but I sprayed it with a decent amount of lube just in case. Trigger seems a tad heavy, but not cripplingl...

Serial on the Stainless one indicates a 1987 production date.
The blued indicates 1998.

Dispute the charge as 'billed incorrect amount' or something. The cc company will probably auto process it in your favor because it takes more money to actually dispute it for real with the vendor in question. <--- Real advise from a once upon a time amex employee.

They are all very up to speed on the AKs and one of them should be able to give me some info to help.

You're too generous. I've got some Mini14's to fondle, so no rush.

Panzercat

This mirrors my experience with AK courses. In AK courses I see far more problems and malfunctions than in AR courses. Certain AKs, like the Arsenals and Krebs you mentioned, generally run flawlessly, and the vz.58s as well, but many other AKs will experience issues from time to time, or constantly...

Now that a certain political figure has thrown her hat into the ring, I'm once again eyeing firearms that may become hard to get later on should she become elected.

I think the imaging need comes from the complete lack of physical disks that PC makers ship as policy now and days. My HP relies on a recovery partition because that could never get corrupted, right?

At least in my case, ghost imaging is my solution to manufacturer cost cutting.

That's the next step. Can't just drop him off somewhere at random-- I don't have the heart for that --so he's got a temporary home in the backyard until probably Tuesday when I can get him into a shelter or something to scan for a chip.

If you have the jamming issues PMRs seem notorious for, there seems to be a simple fix-- Quality ammo. Cheap WMR has thin walls that crimp and buckle while being inserted into the mag, leading to multiple failures.

Honestly, I'm still getting used to how dirty these things get after 7-8 mags on the range. Then again, I've never had anything that I could just dump 250 so rounds in such a comparatively small space of time. Not like I would pump off 200 or so rounds of 30-30 in the same time.
