if it shot 4" it would be the most accurate ak ive ever seen.
all the ones ive seen are 8-10 inches at 100, and off the 11x17" plate at 200. forget 300.
How many have you seen?
This was shot at 200 yards with a SAR1 with its slightly canted iron sights using Wolf 154 grain SP''s. The smaller group at the bottom, from a rest to confirm zero, the upper group from a cross legged sitting position shooting at a steady cadence.
This was shot with a Krebs AK103K(14" barrel) with an Aimpoint on an Ultimak rail, offhand, at 100 yards.
One of these was with my SOCOM, the other, the SAR (I think, or it might have been my WASR, cant remember now) either way, not much of a diffference, except in the price of the gun.
2 second snap shots from low ready using the AK103K. Left is 100 yards, right, 50.
Target guns they are not, but then again, I dont shoot to many bullseye type targets or matches anymore. None of these have an aiming point. Funny thing is, I get pretty much the same results with any rifle I shoot these type targets with, AK, AR, M1A, etc. .
Like I said earlier, unless there is something radically wrong with the gun, its usually not the guns fault if you cant shoot it. Funny thing is, when it comes to shooting, I rarely ever hear the person say they might be the issue, and its almost ALWAYS the guns fault.
if you want an extremely tough rifle and dont have a cleaning kit, the ak could be perfect for you.
They all need cleaning and proper treatment. If you dont take care of your weapon, how do you expect it to take care of you?
Sometimes I really wonder from some of the comments, if there really are "riflemen" still out there these days.
