AK47 or AR15????

3reef Forums > Off Topic > The Bucket

It's an off topic sub forum of a reefing forum

 

Yeah thats the only thing really keeping me from the AK, the ease of modability. That being said I just found a good deal on a fully converted saiga ak that accepts traditional mags for about $630! Thinking I'm gonna go that route. My bro in law and his dad are ordering AR kits soon, so I'll be able to play with those too!

This is in the bucket forum which is for off topic subjects, and we're staying on topic on the off topic. I feel its a chance for opinions from other reefers whose opinions I've grown to trust(of some, and not others) that I value before I make an expensive purchase. Sorry, I feel like this is a family and fail to see how this takes away from your thread. We are all able to not read/respond to anything we choose. I just thought I'd get some of my fellow reefing friends advice as I have learned many of them know more than I when it comes to guns.

 

Lol yah its badass.. A few weeks ago a buddy of mine won a hunting trip through some magazine he subscribes to. It was called "Helo Hogging". They brought him to a ranch a few hrs south of where I live.. Then for the actual hunting they give you an assault rifle thats fully auto (or whatever else you want to shoot) and they put you over a buncha hogs and you just mow em down. I love Texas.

 

lol, one of my best friends just moved from there, and the guns he bought at gun shows and what he paid is insane. That being said, while, fully auto guns aren't legal here, nor is hunting with certain guns, ya just don't be an idiot. I'll convert this to fully auto some day, maybe. Not sure that I'll ever use it though. Well I'll use it, but not often. Thats about $8 every time ya pull the trigger!lol

 

You can buy a lot of nice Coral or equipment over spending 30 minutes on a shooting range with a fully auto military assult rifle, 3 round burst is the rule of thumb, ammo goes a little further that way, my rifle had the M203 attached to it, something I don't think the AK can do, aaahhh! the good ol days.

 

aks shoot steel better which is cheaper.....ARs are picky about steel and prefer brass

 

Getting a Saiga fully converted AK 47, and have a guy looking into an M4 for me. Thx for all the help. Desert Eagle may have to wait till next year

 

Which main battle rifle does the most powerful (ever) military in the world use?

How many of you have read Boston's Gun Bible?

 

I won't buy an AK until I have at least 4 AR's.

You could go AR10 in .308 if you want and AR platform with a heavy round.

 

Oh, I'll get an AR soon, love them. But for now, I wanted a low maintenance, worry free gun, and that is not the AR. My bro in law and I will prob build a couple AR's this summer. Prob something like a 223/556, a heavier round, and then a .22 just to go plunking at the range without breaking the bank. Well, 2 whole guns and then just get a .22 upper to swap out at the range.

Love the AR AK debate.
