I'm in the process of learning as much as I can about the ak platform. One major factor in the 5.45 vs the x39 is corrosive vs noncorrosive. I would recommend shooting a milled vs a stamped receiver. The milled is definitely heavier. Variants you should consider are.... Arsenal, mak-90, sar, maadi, and the saiga. Not in that order.

I have come across a lead on a mak 91. It has iron wood furniture. From what I've read, the rifle is a bit rare and very well made. Everyone has great things to say about them. The national match is a bit heavy, but very accurate in comparison to other ak's. It is also supposed to have a great trigger. So, what do you guys think about the rifle? Any one own one? I see some for $1200 and some for $2500. Can anyone explain this to me? What do you guys value this rifle at?

I'm not done yet. I'm got some stuff to clean out the barrel a bit. I know it's not gonna fix it, but let's see what it can do. I have a friend that swears by it. Thanks farmer, I like the stock as is too.

Just so you can get the full story, here are the pictures from the gunbroker add. The stain was just slopped on. It was just such a shame. I cleaned off the stain and couldn't be happier with what I found underneath it. I think the stocks natural wood is beautiful. I haven't seen many blonde stocks on these rifles.

I took some pictures with the wife's phone. It takes much better pics then my iPad.

Ok, new pics coming soon

No comments on the pics?

They have apps for your phone that you can put any number you want to show up on the person you call caller I'd.

Sorry for the delay, but I had to clean her up. A previous owner put some kind of crappy stain all over the stock. Here she is. I don't understand why my pics are always upside down. They are fine on my iPad.

I don't like this game

What are we talking about?

I understand that it's not 100% Vietnam bring back. It doesn't have the papers, but it "could" be. If it wasn't Vietnam it could have been in A number of other conflicts. It could have been in multiple. The unknown factor is cool to me. That is why I said, I wish it could talk. If you think about what this rifle has been through and where it's been is amazing. The possibilities are endless. On top of that, the bolt is smooth and fast, and the trigger is scary light.

Numbers match except the bolt. Rifling is good, but the barrel is a little frosty. I'm gonna clean it out and see what we got. The bolt functions so smooth, and it's got a crazy light trigger. If it could talk!

I always grab some when I go to Cheyenne. One brick for $35.

I was on gun broker the other day and noticed a m44 with a buy it now of $100. And as a kicker it was around the corner from my house. Couple clicks and I bought it. I get the phone call and 45 min. Later I'm looking it over. I turned out to be a type 53. I didn't even say anything, cause for $100 I'd take that too. I show it to a friend and points out no import marks. Looks like I might have a Vietnam bring back. It has the 26 in a triangle, and was made in 1960. I know, I will post pics tomorrow.

I plow for Middletown and hit drive ways when I can I wouldn't call it on the side, it's just what I do to make money when when it snows.

That storm was perfect. I plowed from about 9 at night till 3:30 the next afternoon. I managed to hit a couple driveways along the way. That storm is over, time start praying for the Monday and Friday storms.

I've been plowing all night and we are finally going to get a little rest until the snow stops or really slows down. I bet I'll be out till 3 pm .

I'm happy as a pig in shit. I've been driving around thinking what rifles I can buy when I get paid . Let it snow!

This is sounding better and better.

To get back on topic, I would go with a nice little 22. Find one that she can operate and your problem is solved.

I have my glock for hd, and don't chamber a round. It does two things. First, it acts as a safety. And second, I want the intruder to hear me chamber one. I hope when he hears the wife chamber the glock and me chamber the shotgun he shits his pants and hauls ass out of my house with me never firing a shot.

Doesn't sound worth the drive.

I'm looking for a nice long storm. It's not only how much snow but how long it snows for. The winds should help too. I'm looking to plow for 20-30 hours. Take a little rest, and go back out and hit driveways.

How big are these shows?
