+1 to what DMK said. But I guess it depends how much farther past 100 meters you want to go. The K31 is an all around great rifle, although ammo is what's going to get ya with that choice. Something for distances around 300 to 400 meters I'd say go with an AR, plus you can build it yourself...

Krebs makes em. they make a pistol version too.

thanks for all the input. I'm going into the army, I cant't believe I forgot to put that oops. So its now my understanding that since I have spent many an hour practicing with my AR I should be fine, maybe very bored, but fine. thanks again. -- Chris

Hello all. First of all I have to say this board has been the greatest I've ever read, and will miss reading it for some time. I've just joined the army and am shipping out on 13 September. My question for any of the members who have served is what is basic marksmanship training like at...

Good luck finding one you'll like. I've tried a few on an M44 and they just loose their zero way too fast. Do your self a favor and just mount a scope rail to the side. I know you said you want to keep it clean, but if you are determined to scope it you might as well save your money on the...

IMO, shoulds like pure marketing hype and preformance that you are not going to see. I mean if you had one you could say that it cost more, weighs less, and last long... and then we could get into an argument that you're infuring that my extractor is a cheap, fat, lousy hooker. But I digress...

Phew... now I can get rid of the heroin I had to take up to curve the THR withdrawls i was getting. So glad we're back up and running. -- Chris

I posted awhile ago about how my K31 was shooting very low at a short distance. All of the answers that I got told me that I needed to take it out to a longer range and see what it did at thoses distances. Well I got the rifle out to the ranges a few times, at distances between 100 - 200...

Krebs makes a peep sight for the ak, and are going to be making one for the Saiga if I remember correctly. If you want to see a ton of things you can get for the AK take a look at Krebs and Tapco ( to name just 2 ) --Chris

Holy crap! That is so frealing sweet!!! If you want to do a step by step write ( hint hint we'd all love one) and need a place to host pictures or the entire thing just PM me. Looks like I have to go get 2 sks's at the next show. one for collection and the other for fun. --Chris

First question is what brand ammo is it? I personally haven't seen too much 7.62 x 54r ammo with a 203 grain bullet ( so do let me know cause we're looking for some for a Dragunov a friend of mine as but back to the point) also let us know if you have tried it with any other ammo. My last...

Make sure to check that there is no shipping grease or other junk around where the bolt locks into battery, and make sure to lube it up nice after cleaning it. Otherwise to quote the great AK vs AR vs Mosin Nagant article "Call the manufacture. It's still under warranty!!!" : ) --Chris

Welcome to the steyr club my friend. My advice would be either to snatch up the mags you find at a gun shows that are going for a reasonable price, or just order a hand full of them from CDNN right now, because you will be very hard pressed to find them in most stores. Also if you are thinking...

I've had good luck getting things from samco. I've seen K31s from them and they were in great condition. So a +1 for samco. Just my 2 cents though. --Chris

I have one word for that... "Ouch"

Definatly do the chamber clean with the 12G brush, that should fix the problem about 99% of the time. Another thing that I have found is that certain ammo causes the problem more than others. Silver tip Czech in my experiences does it every other round, no idea why. So if the problem...

Just an idea but if any other THRers are interested in getting dinner Friday or Saturday night we should have a forum eating fest. I know it's a little last minute but if anyone else is interested post or PM me. I can't wait for the show it was so cool last year. --Chris

Hello all. So I just picked up first K31 yesterday, which I have to say is one of the coolest rifles in my collection but that's another point, anywho I went to shoot it at the range and its shooting consistently low. The range is only 50ft (I know this is not a real distance for this rifle...

The PLR-16: Marshmellows and sticks not included.

how about the Krebs Custom Yugo Krink pistol. nothing feels quite as good as the real thing. :D --Chris
