Does anyone think that sales of AKs will go up with this news? I won't lie, it crossed my mind. I don't have one yet.
and the whole things felt slapped together.
I fired an AK once years ago. It seemed alright. Today at a gun store I picked up one made by Century. Are AKs supposed to feel so flimsy? I know Century has a reputation for insulting Mr. Kalashnikov's design, but the magazine wobble was horrible, and the whole things felt slapped together.
Pick up one of these, world of difference
Oh...I don't think we can say that. Cheap or not, we gave/sold/foisted/pushed/smuggled enough of our own hardware into the hands of folks we wanted to influence to keep up with the Russkies. Shoot, there wouldn't BE an Al Queda without our generosity!I can only wonder how different the world would have been today if we had been the ones giving away massive quantities of arms to unstable/undecided nations for the last fifty years. But none of our stuff was cheap enough to do that.
