    what would you call a good AK?
    saiga?
    the AK mention has come up in conversation with friends about this topic, prob bieng if you want to scope it, side mount crap, massive clunky safety poor triggers. the upper plan just seems easier


    surely the bolt issue would have been sorted quick smart. the x39 just appeals for the put in the gun and shoot aspect without case prep and all that jazz.

    loading bullets for the ar15 just sounds too hard, - Bang "Oh fuck where did that case go"

    This is a good AK http://sportshooter.co.nz • Login

    The trigger on mine is better than GI AR triggers.

    Good luck getting a good bolt in NZ


    Agree on forming etc being way too much hassle for a semi-auto, but you were talking 7mmx39 etc... .300 AAC is way more mainstream and factory than that...


    Get an AR10 platform carbine and shoot steel cased .308



    Or use .223 AR upper for "blasting" and chuck on .300 AAC, 6.5G, 6.8SPC, whatever, for hunting
