Depends what you want to do with it too. And where and when it was made. If you get it check out AK operators union. He posted some stuff about how to cheaply accurize those rifles with Russian and Finnish techniques.

I'll check it out

Some day I want to build a primitive hunters cabin in the woods to go escape from society

No electricity

Just fire

I'd have some electricity, because alot of expression of moods and stuff comes from music

Solar packs for charging phones and portable JBL speakers

But how will I chill my beer to enjoy my fires with lol

Go in the winter

Oh wait your in the south

Well an ice chest or mini freezer attached to a solar generator

It’s called a creek haha

Thats where im going friday night

Today’s outdoors tip. For a great fire starter, coat some cotton balls in petroleum jelly. You can store them in a ziploc bag, an altoids tin, whatever. They light easily and burn for a couple minutes. If using a ferro rod just pull the cotton ball apart to expose the dry cotton inside, will light first strike

Also pretty much water proof. Best method I’ve found. Keep a couple in bag, they don’t weight hardly anything.

just use dryer lint with the same method

Burned shit at property other day

@SilverWolf I keep my dryer lint as well. Just easier to keep the center dry with cotton balls. Only important with a ferro rod, but that dry cotton is big for a rod

I stuff dryer lint in anything hollow in my packs. Doesn’t hurt to have

1911 pistol, yes or no

For fun sure, for use. No

The 1911 was from a time where pieces were hand fitted. Modern manufacturing doesn’t work well for that design. For a good 1911 you need to spend a crazy amount for a gun.

Basically a great gun, very cool, but not practical. Just depends what you want it for.

I’d love one in 38 super auto though....

No. Ammo is more expensive, harder to find, and your limit is 7 in the mag plus 1 in the chamber.

9mm is the way to go

Tempting....

Stay away from that garbage

The steel that is

@🅱øg Wizard too heavy for your taste?

No its the equivalent of buying snake oil

Not only does it not stop green tip the spalling probably will kill you as well

I had them

These companies like AR500 lie about the dangers of their product. Ceramic is the only true armor one should use

Green tips aren’t armor piercing..... and they don’t penetrate level 3 ar500 plates. Green tips are just overhyped target ammo.

Still, avoid that crap. Its not worth your life if you get hit by a rifle threat and shrapnel goes flying into your jugular

I certainly wouldn’t call it snake oil. It serves a purpose and I would rather have it than not have it.

And about the green tip to those who are buying ammo in this panic, don’t spend extra money on green tip. It has a steel core, not a steel tip. So it doesn’t have a penetrator. It was made to shoot through thin helmets, not body armor.

And as the soldier in Mogadishu (black hawk down) found it. It has no stopping power. It doesn’t expand. It just punches little holes that don’t incapacitate.

Hey if you wanna buy faulty products based off lies thats on you. Im just telling you that steel plates are dangerous to the user.
