Kalashnikov automatic rifles

The Russian made AK automatic rifles. One of the finest weapons ever made. Tina Kandelaki is the new marketing director for them. Very pretty to boot, and intelligent. I likes that. She quotes in a patriotic overtone "For the American citizen, it's an old story: When there is injustice in the world, the American solder goes and protects the weak and defenseless. This is a period when we shout out to the world with our brand that we are ready to go and protect our own. Lock and load." She describes how she turned the company around.

I was very impressed with the article. Haven't read such fine journalism in quite some time in hard print, enjoyed it. Most likely won't find it online. Thought I'd share.

Oh well. Sure beats posting ignorant statements/jokes about their wives. Makes me wonder why some are even married. Sure glad it doesn't happen here in the Louisiana forum as in some. Just saying......

And they shoot quite well also! The one I own is a Saiga, a little on the heavy side but I know when I pull the trigger, it will go boom! Will have to look that book up and give it a read. Thanks!

I knows it my friend. Difficult at times being intelligent, I get lost sometimes in my own world :). One thing for sure - the intelligent chicks tear it up.

What's that? :)

The AK's are great rifles....too bad its always our enemies that have them.....You can toss a AK in a mudhole, stomp it down in the mud good...pull it out and it will shoot and operate just fine. Our M16's get one little grain of sand in them and they wont function. dadgummed shame

Correct my friend. Unfortunate they are not US made. I appreciate fine weapons though.

Oh I do too

Did you get my PM I sent you this morning ?

Sent. That me know if it didn't go through.

Thanks Randy

The M14 I had in basic training and AIT was the same way the only the clip would cause a problem getting dirty. lots more recoil but who notices that in a fight.
:(sure didnt like giving it up for the M16, it looked like a Mattel toy compared to M14.

HA !! Didn't it though !! Qualified with the M14 in basic ('68) and got to shoot the M16 one day ... couldn't even hit the target at 25yds :banghead but that may have been because some dufuss left the thing on full auto before handing it to me and I burned nearly a whole clip before I could get my finger off the trigger :Rofl Range Sgt was not a happy camper !! I had gotten so used to bracing for the recoil of the M14, I think I shot the remaining rounds UNDER the target. :Doh:

Ended up not mattering, as I got stationed in S. Korea ... and our weapon issue was the M14 ... which is even more comical, because I ended up with a drivers license and Quick Reaction Force duty quite often ... and guess what weapon the QRF driver is issued ?? THE M60 :biggrin

... cp :kewl

Nice rifle "G" (M1).....In high school ROTC (3 years-1953-1956) we learned to take apart and put back together the M1 Garrand....blindfolded...also disassembled the M1 30 cal carbine and the M1911 45 pistol....went through basic training at Sheppard AFB for the Air National Guard and had to qualify with the M1 carbine....like that one....

I have a M1 30 cal. carbine also. several AK's and a few SKS....Lots of foreign military weapons.

Love my AK. It goes bang everytime no matter what. The projectile is twice the weight and just as fast a a M4/M16 .556
