    5.45 X 39 Comparisons.

    I guess that I need to be more specific when comparing apples to apples, and apples to oranges. In comparison, an AK74/Krink 5.45 X 39, w/open sites, at 300 yards is just as effective as a AR15, 5.56/223, w/open sites, recoil being simular, but less than an AR, at least the way my to platforms...

    5.45 X 39 Comparisons.

    I have never tried it, but I am going on the research that the Soviets have always tried to make there weapons and aircraft interchangeable with NATO parts to some degree. Thus if ever they over ran a Nato position they could use aircraft parts/5.45 X 45 ammo in a picnh if need be.

    5.45 X 39 Comparisons.

    After sevral years of shooting, and owning AK74's and Krink's, I've come to the conclusion that they are equall to or better than the AR's. I am now down to (2) 5.45 X 39 semi auto rifles after years of testiing, buying, and selling. My Krink is built off a complete Bulgarian parts kit less...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Best 1911 on the market...?

    Once you get the 1911 fever, it becomes an obsession to find the best platform out there. As several of the replies have commented on, the level of 1911 platforms and price points vary. I've owned just about all of them over the years, less Ed Brown, Wilson, and Night hawk. Brownings concept is...

    6.8 spc

    Thought about purchasing an AR in 6.8 SPC a few years ago due to some SF buddies who had commented on the caliber. Now I see the ammo has gone up, and the rifles as well. Was curious what the forum members think about the 6.8 SPC both pro's, & con's? Any help or comments would be appreciated...

    Ruger 10/22 Tactical Rifle build...ideas???

    I have built 2 custom builds Ruger 10/22 action. I personaly think while the Arch Angel stock might have a cool look, it's not as practical for hunting. My 1st build utilized the Houge stock for oversized bull barrels. That build taught me alot of what not to do. I traded that build for alot of...

    6.8 spc

    I was wondering what the forum members thought of the 6.8 SPC round? I heard about the ongoing testing several years ago from some SF buddies just before I finished my military career. I shoot 556/223 and 5.45X39, prefering the 545X39 in AK74 or Krink platforms. I have considered purchasing an...

    Being a new member I am learning as I go and will refrain from future post concerning the subjects Redmanss has spoke of.

    Sniper rifle calibers, matter of future availability.

    I also respect our members comments on "SHTF" being on the low end of the totum pole, and would have agreed with them to some degree, prior to this past year. But this past year has taught us that "Scare" scenero's depleted most of the quality sniper calibers, and drove the prices through the...

    Sniper rifle calibers, matter of future availability.

    Intresting replies to original topic. But coming from military past experience, "SHTF" scenero's, in sh*t hole corners in the world, the populas adapted to what was available, and were not concerned with hypo stituations out of there control. Intresting enough most true "Bad Guy's" scenero's use...

    In a perfect world, with an abundance of available ammunition, it is the shooters choice, or prefrence. While in the military, and civilian sectors, I have had plentiful resources in obtaining just about any cailber ammo known to mankind. Recent changes in our administration, ammo availability...
