>>31072088
What is this? Is this true? What is -40c in normal people temp, like -100? Does it even get that cold anywhere?

>>31072143
Celsius is normal people temp. -40c simply -40 fahrenheit and yes it does get colder than that.

>>31072071
Can change barrel with only hand tools.

10/10 rifle

If direct impingement is so good how come there are piston ARs but no direct impingement AKs?

>>31072168
>-40c simply -40 fahrenheit
This is an anomaly in unit conversion but correct

-40 C is also -40 F

>>31072143
It does, but the places it gets that cold are not worth going to, or fighting a war in.

>but you can't hit the broad side of barn with it
Depends on the make. Rk62 with high quality metal and tight tolerance gives it <1 MOA accuracy, which is more than enough for the conditions and engagement distances it's meant for.
Want to shoot further, get a machinegun, battle rifle or sniper rifle.

>>31072357
no worries, what magnification did you get?
>>31072367
I'm just joking nigger, my SLR groups just as good as my AR

>>31072369
Yeah, but cheap AKs actually aren't accurate. Especially compared to an equally cheap AR, atleast in Burgerland. Easier to get better AKs here in Europe, what with no import ban and all.

>tfw can't use AR for melee combat.

>>31072369
4x. If I REALLY like it im considering getting a mini ACOG for my PS90.

>>31072389
I owned some cheaper AKs too, never had a single issue as far as accuracy
>>31072390
still a pleb rifle
>>31072391
right on, I'm just hesitant to spend 1k+ on an optic I've never had any experience with but i hear really good things about them

>>31072390
You can CQB w/ an AR, I think you just have to barrel jab with it.

A bayonet on the end would really improve things.

>>31072317
No an AR mag swap s inherently faster than an AK. You can reach for a new mag while dropping the old one, no need to rock in, then press the bolt release to chamber a round. You can do the Slavic mag drop in an Ak, but that doesn't make it faster than an AR

I've seen plenty of vids of pro shooters reload AKs faster than ARs.

More like nogunz temp

>>31072267
Aww, poor you. Over here in Minnesota I still walk to class in -40 plus wind.

Temperature is nothing. Water is the real concern.

Yeah, until you have to spend days innawoods in that temperature. It gets kinda dull when you can't stand still for a few minutes without freezing. Add to that doing militarily stuff in the snow and you're set.

Aks cant even run with a little mud, not even with all the featurrs you mentioned.
Kek.
Do you even full30 bro.

>>31072317
Kek go through your gif and count how many movements become unnecessary when you reload an ar.
