Speaking of AKs

For some reason I had a thing for 5.45 at a time

But seeing the 7N6 ban and seeing that 7.62x39 has more of a "punch"

I did too when it was cheap

I'm leaning more towards 7.62

I still have a lot of 7N6 for the tantal

I’d deff go 7.62 now

ye

When 5.45 was basically free it was awesome

It’s still a great round IMO but ammo availability and price just isn’t there anymore 🤷‍♂️

Ballisitcally how does 5.45 compare to 5.56 anyway? 🤔

Fairly similar

With green tip 5.56 being readily available and 7N6 not

It wouldn’t make sense to buy a 74 for anything other then a range toy

Steel cased 308 is almost as cheap as 5.45 now

Yeah since we don't live in eastern europe or russia

It makes more sense go with a caliber that's pretty much standard in our homeland

7.62x39 is ridiculously common as is 5.56 and 308

And I’ve never had an issue running steel case in an AK where I have with an AR

Can get 1000 rounds of x39 for around 150

I really like the round for 300 yards and in, it really does wonders.

Yeah more common than 5.45 at this point

I wonder if I should get a 7.62x39 AK or get a CZ bren 2 lol

Since it can also be chambered for that

Well ideally I'd like to have both anyway

When money's not an issue

AK will always be my answer lol

Think about parts availability

Stupid simple, parts are dirt cheap

inb4 someone says "but AKs are inaccurate commie pieces of shit" lol

but AKs are inaccurate commie pieces of shit

lol

For shits n gigs I had a WASR and put 6000 rounds through it without major cleaning

Just swabbing the barrel

All dirty as fuck steel case Tula

Only if they have shot out barrels because they have been used constantly since the initial Soviet invasion of Afghanistan

Yeah there seems to be a common myth that AKs are inaccurate compared to an AR

My Arsenal AK is accurate as hell, as is my WASR

But I think part of it is due to people not knowing how to use AK irons lol

WASRs had canted sight issues and that didn’t help

And the irons are admittedly not the greatest
