    Can someone tell me about this "AK-47"

    Run, don't walk away from that POS. As mentioned, it's a build using a Eubanks receiver (which in and of itself is fine) probably on an 82 Romanian G receiver (also fine). They took a left over Saiga stock and slapped it on - way too long with a pistol grip unless you are a 6'8" basketball...

    Wolf Military Classic=CRAP

    dang! I bet you sold them cheap too! I wish I'd of been around when you did as this ammo works fine out of AK .223 rifles. It's kinda dirty but it shoots and cylces fine and gives decent accuracy - not as good as quality brass cases ammo, but fine for plinking. I don't think it's that...

    Where/Which surplus ammo to buy??

    out of your list Get some good Bulgarian 7.62x54 (that's really it for your list - for milsurp) and then Wolf/Golden Tiger, etc. 7.62x39. The 308 milsurp is long gone. You'd be better off setting up to reload that...

    Saiga .308 Comparison

    Your original post The answer is yes - an SKS. However, they are chambered in 7.62x39 which is similar to the 30-30 Win in power. They have the advantage of being able to load them with stripper clips and they hold 10 rounds. SKS's do make viable deer rifles - especially in "woods" type...

    military collectibles

    Mosin Nagants are the most reasonably priced and most widely available and have quite a few variations available right now. And the biggest plus is that you can still get good quality surplus ammo at reasonable prices. Can't say that about any other milsurp right now unless it chambers...

    Enfield Collectibles

    Rather than getting one of the current ones at wholesale, I'd recommend getting a Brit rifle (as opposed to the Ishipures) on gunbroker or other auction site. They will be worth more in the long run IMHO. Now, if you want a shooter - then by all means get a nice Ishy. I currently own...

    cast bullets in a Kel Tec Sub2000 9mm?

    carbine velocities I figured that 1600 fps with a 115 grain bullet would be reached with +P loads - based on a 18% jump over revolver velocities. Corbon lists a +P 115 grain load that reaches 1350. My load books don't list +P loads for the 9mm. Cast bullets tend to go faster at the...

    cast bullets in a Kel Tec Sub2000 9mm?

    yes, you would need to count the COW's weight as "bullet weight". But COW is pretty low density/light. Nelson - thanks, that's what I wanted to know. I'll just make up some test loads and see how they print.

    cast bullets in a Kel Tec Sub2000 9mm?

    interesting thanks for that information. I've heard of COW being used in reduced loads to take up space in the case but not as a "gas check" as you are employing it with your loads. I've had very good success with my rifle hard cast bullet loads simply using gas checked designes and...

    STG-2000 Optics (What? That's an AK!)

    optics and quality The STG-2000 is a WASR, but it has been converted by IO, NOT Century and by all accounts, IO does a lot better work. And the 5.56 chambered models have a very good reputation for accuracy. WASR's can be very good shooters. It's the sloppy work that tends to cause...

    cast bullets in a Kel Tec Sub2000 9mm?

    bump nobody has experience with this? The bore seems to be cut rifled and has deep grooves, so I'm thinking as long as the bullets have enough or good lube, they'd be fine. Maybe use Lee's liquid alox- which has performed excellently for me with my hard cast rifle loads...

    Would you trade a Kel-Tec Sub 2000 & 5 33 round mags for a Yugo AK?

    based purely on value I would take the trade any day. You can buy another Kel Tec - they are still available for $300. I know, I just bought one! But I already own... well quite a few AK's. The Underfolder is a $450 rifle and the KT is a $300 carbine -the mags can be had for $20 on...
