Default Re: AK or another AR?

Get an AK.

I need to get one for myself but having a pile of AR stuff makes prioritizing an AK purchase too hard for me. Do it now before its too late!!!

Get the AK while ammo is still cheap and plentiful.

Then buy it cheap and stack it deep.

The demoncrats are coming.

Default Re: AK or another AR?

I say get the AK because you already have two AR's. AK's are alot of fun. The design is brilliantly simple. I had a Yugo and really liked it, but I had bought the underfolder and it was really uncomfortable to shoot. I would definitely recommend the regular fixed stock.

Or you could convert it to a bull-pup



For sale here.

Not very tactical, but definitely cool!

Default Re: AK or another AR?

I've debated this same question many times! I have one AR and I want an AK, but I really like the AR platform for accessories so I am leaning towards another AR for myself. But in your case with 2 AR's already, I'd probably get the AK!!

Default Re: AK or another AR?

as others have said, go with the ak.
i base this on the fact that you already have 2 ars.
i have both the yugo and the stag and both are fine rifles...
but there is just something nice about the simplicity of an ak... you just gotta love it!

Default Re: AK or another AR?

I've got 7 AR's now, and still no AK. I keep saying that no collection is complete without an AK, yet the AR's and AR parts keep coming in. With the variety of ammo choices in the AR, as well as operating systems, I just can't see switching over to the AK. Eventually I'll get one just to have it (tax return maybe), but for you, get it anyway. I've shot plenty of AK's and they just don't do anything for me. It's "that time" where everyone should consider getting one if they haven't already though!

5.45x39mm is the cheapest mil-surp ammo that you can get right now. Buy it cheap and stack it deep...

Go with something that not everybody has. The pic of the FN FAL is a good one, or one of the HK G3 variants.

Since you are thinking about the AK, get a Valmet. They're about a grande at the gun shows. Those things look sweet.
