AK-74 Range time
Went to the range today and wanted to test out the sights on my rifle. Range was limited (shot at about 25 yards) and I'm also pretty new to firearms, so my aim is probably not the greatest. I was really just shooting for fun - wasn't trying to impress anyone with amazing groupings. And, because the world is coming to an end on Saturday, I wanted to practice!
Bottom line is that the rifle shoots true and I had a lot of fun.
Rifle is an SGL31 and I was shooting Silver Bear.

Very, very nice! I have a Saiga 7.62 with a 20" barrel....I'm still impressed with it's accuracy after 2 years!
I also keep saying that Silver Bear is some of the best off the shelf ammo you can get. I've also shot Silver Bear in my pistols with great results!

Re: AK-74 Range time
I agree - Silver Bear is awesome stuff.
Plus, AIM Surplus always has killer deals on Silver Bear ammo.

Re: AK-74 Range time
My wife fell in love with the POS Bulgy AK-74 that I bought last year. I took her to the range because I told her she should be familiar with it, since it was going to be the "bump-in-the-night-bedroom-gun. She doesn't like to shoot rifles very much, but shot it until the smoke was rolling off the barrel.
Really fun guns, and fairly cheap to shoot, too."It's hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong."

It's definitely fun - In fact, I don't think I've ever had this much fun with a rifle before.
The guy in the lane next to me had a 47 and was admiring my 74 - I'd shoot it everyday if I had time.
