Lone_Gunman, I hear ya, but understand the AK is a shooter, and for a mindless peasant. That peasent is not into the refined guns Americans are.
All he wants is a gun that will shoot, and with out fussing around cleaning it. he wants to add bling, but no tacticool bling. He adds religious tokens, beads and bobbles, shiney crap made out of anything he can find.
If the gun doesn't work he doesn't go pay a gunsmith, he throws the gun away, and gets another one. he could care a less about wood to metal fit, what stain, if there is hand cut checkering or pressed checkering, and or any gold inlay.
I have other guns with much nice wood to metal fit, even my flinters have a better wood to metal fit, but when it is that rainy day, you won't find me with a prissy little .233 pea shooter, because for one thing i will need game.
If you never saw a deer stand to gun fire you ain't seen nearly enough deer.
I am on a 56 K mo dumb and had no idea there was any vidio... When I want to see deer I just go out the door, and sometimes I see a moose insted.
The deer here run over 200 pounds easy, and can run over 275 thats dressed.
And yeah if you can see a deer it can hear you breathing. I live in the sticks too and no game I see is park deer..
A wild deer will stand to gun fire a lot of the time. Like I said I can go target shooting and they come to watch. So do moose..
You fart wrong and poof there gone. There is no day in the year i don't hear gunshots either. That doesn't upset me a bit. Everyone and their mother shoot around here. There is a range but most folks go out back some where, and shoot on their own land.
I haven't been to a gun range in over 3 decades...
