Better than the RAS47. Avoid it and the IO AKs like the plague. I recommend the WASR, Arsenal, MAK90, Vepr, or Saiga.
>>
>>29767208
>under $800
get a WASR

Go watch AK Operators Union. They run AKs and do review.

Do you think it is a worthwhile endevour to mass reload ammo and sell it. I plan on getting all the necessary equipment to begin loading 9mm, 5.56, and .308. Where I live I can get barrels and barrels full of spent shell casings. I plan to start reloading and packaging the ammo is vacuum sealed bags, in quantities of 100. Basically I'm asking if anyone thinks this is a worthwhile idea, or is it not enough reward for the amount of work out in.

Lolfuckno. With the HUGE gangs here you're literally just carving up free territory for them.
Also BB guns are banned in AUSland? that's stupid.

what does working mean?
working as in it's working to disarm the law abiding civilians and make them extremely vulnerable to criminal elements AND future government abuses?
yes australian gun control works beautifully in this regard.
Crime with guns? up
violent crime? up
guns in the hands of criminals? the same.

Why don't you own a sword Anon? Swords beat guns in melee.

America made a countermeasure. Pretty effective too. Plus ours has 8 long range shots of 7.62.

I don't think scholars have reached an agreement on what real combat was like.
I imagine that the grappling might be somewhat similar but if I had to guess in real combat it was probably a lot more attempts at stabbing and knocking down and executing rather than whacking armored plate with a sword.
>>
>>29766181
these guys are terrible
and I say that from the perspective of a guy who's never practiced nor researched anything beyond my friends and I beating each other with sticks
>>
>>29766220
yeah, ive been talking to a friend who is deep into reenactment thing and he said that "no kill" tournaments looked pretty much like this.
but in real fight with sharp and pointy swords there was in fact more stabbing. and also once you are down its usually over.
was wondering if anyone could confirm it.

I just binge watched several lectures by John Nagl and others who studied the conflicts from the past decade and a half. However, I didn't really get any satisfying information out of these lectures as these guys mostly talk about what mistakes were made by the different administrations and generally politics behind certain decisions in Iraq/Afghanistan . So my question is, do you guys know any literature, online lectures, online sources on the subject of counter-insurgency and lectures learned in the Middle East in these past years on an operational level?

Bolt action rifles
>can use pointed ammo
>a very simple, failproof action
>a rotating bolt is inherently strong
>can buy more mags for quick reloading
>free floating barrel gives accuracy advantage over semi autos
>very cheap
>easy cleaning
>almost no maintenance required
>can handle any grain of ammo without feeding issues
>quieter than semi auto
>lightweight
>can shoot while prone
Lever action rifles
>much more expensive than bolt action rifles
>can't shoot while prone
>bitch to clean
>slightly faster follow up shots than bolt action
>I am a cowboy
Why do people buy lever action rifles?

Not mine, but my grandpa has a concieled carry philosophy.
He carries at least 5 guns on him, 3 of which are glock 17s. His idea is to spray as many bullets at the attacker/attackers until something hits. He carries at least 4 mags for them too.
He calls it the wall of lead technique.
