Then, there's:

There are collapsible stock options for shotguns. It's usually the combat shotgun crowd that uses them, for the same reasons as rifles, including the 'cool' factor.

Dr Rob nailed it in Post# 41. Originally a way to make ARs more compact for storage, it was found to be advantageous for various sizes of shooters. As body armor became more common, shooters discovered that the compact stock positions permitted accurate shooting with the torso directly toward...

I simply stated that my recent build WASR seems to be much improved over the one you had. :)

Lots of life left in that classic little blaster! :D

I keep thinking about a K-T Sub2000 in 9mm. For close urban dwelling, this should give adequate touch, without as much risk of punching neighbors.

Tahuna, I posted on that 'other' thread, but for the readers here, I'll say that Century has gotten squared away, and the WASR I bought just a few weeks ago is FAR better than the clunkers they used to put out, and that you got stuck with. I am quite satisfied with the WASR and there are a...

Guys, there are places where guns have been seriously messed up in evidence lockers, case numbers engraved with electric pens, left to rust, etc. Hopefully that will never happen to your firearm, but still a weapon of little personal value is the best to use, if THAT event occurs. My...

Another question is: What weapon would you be willing to have placed into the tender, caring hands of an evidence technician? A BIG point against my M1 carbine for HD.

Another SU16C. I have an M1 carbine, but pricy ammo limits practice. My new WASR 10 is starting to look mighty good...

I dealt with my AKitis with a WASR. I was looking for a budget AK, and the WASR 10 at the shop seemed the best one in the price range. Sights straight, fit, finish, rivets, etc looked good, so it went home with me. I checked the mags, and they are a good fit, just enough looseness to ensure...

From my poking around on the Internet, it seems that CAI got their act together in '08 and the WASRs really improved. I just bought one at a LGS, and it is right & tight-- the magwell has just enough looseness to easily insert and remove magazines, and out of the box, I was ringing a steel...
