Exactly. This is the case with all German cars. "German Engineering" is a marketing myth, gobbled up by consumers with fat wallets. Talk to all the mechanics you can find. They'll tell you the truth. VW, Audi, BMW, Merc... all garbage. German cars are about image. Period. We've purchased a new Toyota Camry in back 2001, for $17k. 5 years later it was paid off. So for the past 7 years we've had a "free" car. No car payments, and minimal insurance costs. 160,000+ miles later, and besides typical maintenance, we've only had to replace a few small parts, like belts and bushings. Still gets 35 mpg on the highway. The car will last another several years...

The only thing not smart is the mentality "some people that want a new car every 4 years." Buy a car, keep it for 10 years at a minimum. That's the only "smart" thing to do. NOBODY needs a new car every 4 years, unless they drive 50,000 miles per year, and run their car into the ground. Buying a car every 3-4 years is typical old school spoiled brat thinking. ...then we wonder why most Americans live on credit, and our economy tanked...

60's all weekend

So I was in Georgia over the weekend, for a family party. We decided to buy the guest of honor a nice lever-action rifle for his special day. Walked into a local, popular gun shop. Found a Henry Big Boy, in .357 (walnut stock, brass receiver, octogonal barrel... beautiful). Paid $150 less than MSRP. GA resident purchased under their name, with only driver's license. NICS check took all of 10 min... and the guys behind the counter were complaining about how long it was taking! In and out the door in under 30min for entire process. I was soooooo freakin' jealous. ...looking for job openings down there.

ST.LOUIS SUCKS!!! Welcome to the conversation

Marty Brodeur last season... at 40 years of age. L.E.G.E.N.D.

Devils embarrassed both Rangers and Flyers last year. Regardless of who likes who, Marty Brodeur is a legend. You're all just jealous that we have him.

I guess you could. Makes sense at least. Problem is, our laws and legal system aren't based on logic. I believe it's best to "idiot proof" myself from any kind legal issues. An uninformed "authority figure" could look at a bayonet lug with a weld on it and say "well, you still have a bayonet lug on there." If it's gone, no way to get in trouble for it.

Congrats!

^ LOL

Gorgeous. Whats that black thingy on the front of stock, under the barrel?

Out of Stock... ARRRRRGGGGGG!!!

I've been reading about a recoil buffer upgrade for the AK. Example: http://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/stock-forend-parts/recoil-parts/recoil-buffers/ak-47-recoil-buffer-prod32493.aspx Does this have a considerable effect on AK 7.62 recoil?

I have plenty.

Has anyone ever been to this show? I've actually never been to a true gun show (went to an antique guns how in NJ). Will I be able to buy any firearms from private sellers? Licensed sellers, I know any purchase will have to be shipped to my ffl. How about ammo?

Congrats! very nice

Stock tight to shoulder. Push/Pull method. Nose hovering milimeters from receiver. leaning forward into rifle. Same technique I was taught. I didn't take notice, but perhaps the ak-variant I shot had no muzzle break? Or, the slat break? I know those two scenarios increase perceived recoil.

Perhaps. Maybe my cheek weld is too deep? It felt almost as harsh as my Mossberg 12ga shotty...! What sucks even more is I'm having Paul from A-n-A modify it to be NJ legal (chop bayonet lug). So, I've effectively reduced my market to NJ only

Bullet Hole is my local shop. The handgun cases have been cleaned-up and organized since. Most everyone there is helpful and knowledgeable. Yes, some of the counter people seem to be permanently miserable. However, I've never had any issues with them. Also, I've recently found some of the best local ammo prices of any shop within 45 min from me (North Jersey).

So I recently purchased a NIB Arsenal SGL26-61, in 7.62x39. It took alot of negotiation, but I got a decent price, considering the current climate. Not quite "normal" prices, but not ridiculous either. So this past weekend I took a trip to Sunset Hill Shooting Range in PA. This place is pretty neat, although expensive. They have a large array of semi-auto rifles, and pistols to shoot. They charge a good amount (example: $8 for 5 shots). Anyway, it gave me the chance to actually shoot a 7.62x39 AK variant. Well, I hated it. I found the harshness of the non-buffered recoil to be no fun at all. The damn thing made my jaw rattle. It made me realize how basic, and technically unsophisticated the platform is. I respect the power, and reliability of the AK platform, but let's be honest... I'm now a weekend bench shooter. I know, I know... cry baby. Maybe I'm just too used to the AR platform. So, now my dilemma is do I keep the Arsenal in my collection, or sell it now when these rifles are hot? Opinions?
