this image triggers me

because the m in e=mc2 means that kinetic energy weapons are best energy weapons in most situations and projected energy is a gigantic fucking hassle that does not have the staying power of variously shaped rocks being thrown at something.

Maybe at some point far in the future when we have superbatteries capable of holind 1.21 jigawatts in our pockets shooting particle accelerators at people might be practical. But ONLY because we wont have to locate a a suitable rock.

Tossing a rock at something is always the best bet at surely delivering an un-hamperable and reliable strike.

because technology isn't quite there to produce a reliable beam/laser/rail gun. Rail/coil guns are in testing but the "rails" IIRC are not strong enough to withstand more than a few shots before needing replacement, so i would assume the same for effective weaponized lasers, not sure on particle weapons tho.

Why not list it locally,
Or sell it to me for $100
Where do you live

>>31626927
You can sell it to numrich for parts

>>31626927
keep it on your wall, its always worth saving an old garand

I actually own one, however I haven't seen any issues with corrosion and I shoot the thing extremely regularly (1/week). That being said I live in a drier climate and keep it fairly well maintained.

Only issue I had was when I first got it, the trigger disconnect would just barely catch, causing the gun to not fire, but that was solved with some minor tooling. Idk, I love the shit out of mine, but that's because it's a workhorse. I don't need any fancy shit, and I don't need a safe queen. Hell the only reason I bought this one was because I wanted a vertical fore-grip, and couldn't find one of the wood stock ones.

I know that IO does put out lemons, and the final fit and finish isn't the best. Maybe I got the ONE good one.. But it's a fuckin AK, take a hammer to the thing and beat it into submission.

TL:DR idk, none on mine.

>>31627196
How many rounds through it? I'm wiling to bet money that AK will shit the bed before 2k rounds. Hell maybe 1k.

Could have bought a wasr for the same price or not much more.

>>31627196
Its just extremely strange because I checked that rifle head to toe, then suddenly without explanation, it corrodes within a week of owning it. Wtf?

And it seems as a general consensus that most folks who own aN IO like them. Only time will tell

A and B are true for all AUGs, and C are true for the NATO versions.

It's the best refinement of the AUG so far, so there's nothing to really hate on about it.

Why the heck would you shoot a woodpecker.

>>31625961
Because I have a wood-sided house and woodpeckers are cavity nesters.

>>31626829

54r is probably my top pick, steel cored, and hard hitting fun. One of my absolute favorite guns shoots it too.
I like every round I shoot for their own reasons, everything has a purpose down to my pellet rifles. Sometimes I feel like hitting stuff hard as possible, sometimes I just like to see what 545x39's crazy ballistics does to a stack of wood panels or a critter, sometimes I just want to shoot while chatting with the gf or teach kids with pellet rifles.

its still a mosin. which means the steel barrel will rust after you shoot it. the m39 stocks are fragile. its common to see splits at the wrist and cracks in the top handguard. buying an unfucked replacement stock is an expensive venture. if its what you got you use it but as a shtf rifle when you have choices why?

>>31625664
why would your SHTF fantasy playtoy be a 12 pound 45 inch bolt-action that shoots a round that was outdated in the 19th century

I have one. It's a great shooter, it has a beautiful tigerstriped stock and a mirror bore. It's reliable, accurate, and nice to look out. But its not practical for that kind of fantasy scenario

If you can, get an AR-15 or AK, depending on where you live. AR in the states, AK will probably be cheaper in Eastern Europe, maybe Western as well.
While the rifle itself is good, it being a bolt-action rifle means your individual firepower will be greatly lowered in combat, unless you use it as a marksman weapon, firing from a distance and breaking off as soon as possible. It will not serve you well in close quarters, firefights or in chaotic situations.
It's certainly better than nothing though, so if you can't get anything else, get a Mosin.
