Maybe, but good luck finding M193 anywhere right now, especially reasonably priced.

This just in: Scorned forum user lashes out at internet community. More at 11.

A shorter stock isn't all that bad, actually. With an AK, your talking about a shoulder fired, front heavy, iron sighted, carbine that you generally shoot while standing. A shorter stock allows you to pull the rifle in closer, especially if you stand in a more modern "squared off" position which will make supporting the front heavy gun a little easier. If you are planning on shooting from the bench or standing in an old school bladed stance, a standard or longer stock would be ok but your support hand is still doing a lot more work because the more you have to cantilever your arm out, the quicker it will fatigue. I'm 6'4" with long 38" arms and know all about tall guy ergonomics but with a gun like an AK, its not that critical in my experience (I have a converted Saiga). Even with my converted Saiga, i have a plastic K-Var stock and i wish it were event shorter like the traditional AK wood stocks.

Dude, he's trollin' you. He knows damn well how much the guns cost. And if he didn't, its a quick trip to Bud's to figure it out.

The guy in the video is such a chris Costa lacky douchebag. Between the tone of his voice and all the demeaning jargon he spews, it's pretty clear he worships at the throne of the Costa ludis. And I realize he was simply trying to illustrate the problem of the gun, but holding it sideways like that when you know the thing is about to go full auto is just begging for the muzzle to sweep the camera guy as it rises on a horizontal plane. He might be an even bigger douche then the gun owner. Lol

Too-weak striker spring with a too-stiff trigger spring: The trigger practucally pulls itself.

I would imagine economy of scale plays a large part of why an HK (or the steel sig's) is more money than a Glock. While i don't know the numbers, its probably pretty safe to assume that Glock sells a lot more G17/G19's than HK sells a P30's and usp's. In addition to the lower production numbers, the HK is hammer fired with safety/decocker which is more complex and more expensive to produce. It also comes in different trigger/safety configurations so that costs even more money to make. Add in labor and overhead to assemble said variations in some expensive European country and assume if both companies were to have the similar profit margin to stay afloat, its not hard to understand the price difference. It would be interesting to know what the production costs of an HK are just to see if there is any added premium built into to thier margins. If there is, I bet its not as radical as you would think. But hey, its easier to sit back in a 'blissful' state and say, "both guns are black, they should just cost the same!"

Nice, i wouldnt mind a mid-month steel match. How does the admission work? I'm not a member so $20 per gun or per person? Can you enter more than one class?

Tonight when i get home, i'm going to reload my reloader and get to reloading my reloads. Dawg.

I'll stop reloading if Ray Ray stops posting.

Anyone get any vids of our squad? Feel free to post any of me and my runs, i have no reservations (even a critique would be welcome).

Which stage was Raz's?

Pardon my unfamiliarity, but where can we find the scores posted?

There is a new moonclip loader in town, and his name is BMT and he's about to lay waste to all other moonclip loaders that ever loaded a moonclip. http://www.bmtequipped.com/

Perhaps this flowchart will help you decide.
