You underestimate my love for the dankest memes of /akg/

$700 isn't a bad price for it tho, they've been getting harder to come by. They used to be fairly available for around $600, now I don't see them nearly as often for sale and this guy has been trying to sell his for a while now. If I really wanted one (which I do someday, but no hurry honestly) I wouldn't feel bad spending $700 on this one assuming I had $700 to blow and was willing to blow it on ugly slavshit

It's entirely different now. I think it's a byproduct of more people on /k/ actually owning guns. It used to be that people would make unboxing threads for a Wasr and Squid was considered a gozillionaire for his Scars. Now Scars get posted daily and don't cause any sort of fuss.

/k/ is really different but it's also 4chan in general. In one hand I feel generals in their right context are for the best, but on the other hand they've changed this site entirely

I remember when I was one of only like a handful of people here who had a vz.58, years before the cheap Century deal and back when your options were CSA and the new Czechpoint/D Technik. SCARs were unheard of outside of Squid like you said. It's just weird. I've wasted nearly a decade on this stupid Germanic tapestry weaving forum (not all of it on /k/ tho) and that's just weird

I just spent a good 10 minutes looking for more of these pics >>32605848 but I can't find them. I know I had them because I had them all on my phone at one point. Whenever I see these pics it makes me want to buy a ton of flecktarn

Got my m92 from Atlantic a couple weeks ago. Sights are straight and the build quality is really nice. Shitposting from a motel feels pretty gud.

...so, has anyone else tried any of the new "8M3" Tulaammo is selling through SGammo?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ENhmMKuaVU

Looks pretty legit, though I wish they'd loaded it in either lacquered or copper washed cases. I look at those "polymer coated" cases and I am imagining a great big furry red rust thumbprint growing on the side of each cartridge once it's loaded into a mag, and causing an extraction problem should I attempt to defend my life with it.

It'd be nice if the bullets were available as loading components. Then you could load them in brass and waterproof them and not worry about it.

>>32607353
>I look at those "polymer coated" cases and I am imagining a great big furry red rust thumbprint growing on the side of each cartridge once it's loaded into a mag
?????
Nigga what retarded reasoning is behind this?

>>32607364
His oils are pure salt. To be fair, polymer cases rust out where lacquer cases don't give a flying fuck. I've seen both types of ammo after a salt bath during a flood and the lacquer cases looked good as new hours later while the polymer was just a red rusted mass.

>>32607388
Am I the only one whose fingers it turns black every time I load a mag?

Is that "polymer" shit anything but a dusting of graphite dry lube? It comes right off on your hands.

Lacquer is milspec for a reason. I am willing to plink with ammo loaded in bare steel cases, but not use it for defense, because it HAS to work.

>>32607472
If it's graphite dry lubricant then I don't see why they are calling it polymer. I was under the impression the polymer coatings were just that, coatings of a latex like material.

>>32607472
>Lacquer is milspec
Not anymore.
Poly has been Russian milspec for some time.

Lacquer is definitely smoother cycling, you'll never notice this but it is, roll some rounds of both in your hands, lacquer is way smoother.

>>32607557

the russian army does not use/field polymer coated commercial ammunition, polymer coat is cheaper to make then lacquer which is the only reason it exists.

Military standard is still lacquered and sealed primer and bullet.

However, lately I and others have noticed with concern that there is Brown Bear that is coming as polymer. I emailed them and they assured me they will continue to offer both:

>"We will be stocking both types. This allows us to work around Russian government orders as they specify polymer, making lacquer available. Also some of our customers have a preference for one or the other.

I know the Poles have used cast trunnions, not sure about the Russians.
Casting is fine if done properly.
>Also it's usually only the rear trunnion, which bears no real force, I'm sure a detail IO left out.
But claiming some IO employee's word over someone who actually deals with the Russian manufacturers is intellectually dishonest at best.

>>32607643
Well, the AK-74M wasn't replaced by a firearm in the AK-100 series.

AK-101: Full-sized 5.56
AK-102: Carbine 5.56
AK-103: Full-sized 7.62x39
AK-104: Carbine 7.62x39
AK-105: Carbine 5.45

AK-74M: Full-sized 5.45

I can't remember what the AK-106 is, or the AK-107 if it exists. I don't know why they seemingly dropped the AKs-74u, or perhaps they think it's just fine as is since it doesn't really need an optic unless you plan to have a night-vision one. So I can understand why it'd be called an AKs-74Nu or AKs-74uN. For some reason, making it AKS-74U just looks strange to me, even though it's AKMS instead of AKMs.

Why can't we import these instead of dimpleless WASR's?

>>32608937
God damn, 007: Goldeneye was epic, even though it had a Soviet feel in spite of the Soviet Union having been gone for, what, 4 years? Movie was 1995 and game was 1997, right? Something like that. When I was 10-11 years old, I wanted to legitimately change my name to James Bond. Significantly cooler than when I was 12-13 and wanted to change my name to... God damn the cringe... Harry Potter. What can I say? I loved the novels when I was a kid. Still, so fucking much cringe...

>>32611091
The AK-107 is the balanced recoil one. The AK-106 may exist, but it's not a production firearm. They dropped the AKS-74U/UN because that role is now filled by other weapons.

>>32611099
In that configuration?

Because in 1989 the ATF reclassified what is considering a 'sporting' arm and that has features which don't fit. So, thanks to the GCA, it's not allowed in.

>>32611104
Oh? But the AK-105 isn't as small as the AKs-74u. Perhaps they're going with that one funky bull-pup 9mm SMG with the spiral mag, or whatever it's called? Helical? Cylindrical? Can't remember the term. Pretty sure it ends in 'al'.

>>32611091
The 107 is 5.45 with a recoil balancing system like the AEK 971. Wiki says the 108 is 5.56 and the 109 is 7.62 but I don't think they've made those yet, or at least I've never seen one

>>32611108
Obviously not in that literal configuration. It'd have to come in as a sporter. Do you think I'm retarded?

>>32611111
The Vityaz is probably given to tank and air crew and the 105 is good enough for everyone else.

I don't think the military uses the Bizon.

The 7.62 and 5.56 versions probably exist but won't enter production unless the 107 gets popular.

>>32611119
That sounds familiar.

>>32611132
Bizon, that's the name. So they basically just stopped manufacturing AKs-74u. After all, how often do tankers actually need to shoot beyond mere training? Those little things will likely last decades and decades provided they're well maintained what with that corrosive ammo.

>>32611134
Never heard of the Vityaz, I was assuming it was a nickname for the Krink. Also, fuck me, I didn't even notice the digits. Noice!

>>32611147
No
Izhmash announced they were going to start producing a Saiga MK-107, a civilian version of the AK-107. And they did just that. There was never guarantee that they were going to make a neutered version for the US market. We never even saw what this hypothetical US market Saiga 107 would look like.

>>32611253
It was a passing comment.

Izhmash will try and sell anything they possibly can to the US market. The US market was formerly their biggest civilian market. Obviously they're going to try.

Here's what happened: Izhmash announced they were going to start producing civilian models of the PP-19-01 and the AK-107 under the Saiga brand. They even had semi-auto floor models to show. US gun bloggers latched on to this and started writing about how Izhmash was going to start importing Saiga-9s and Saiga 107s because they knew it would get a lot of attention and ad revenue. You are what I would call one of the "suckers" who fell for it.

Izhmash never revealed a US compliant model and there was never a guarantee the ATF would approve whatever they submitted as kosher for import. Do you even know about the voluntary trade restriction with Russia?

>>32611241
Sorry you didn't get to shoot it before I left NC Chimps, but I might make it back down that way in the next year to visit friends.

Oh, and for the guy who thought I was the dude with the 1V and 5.45 mags, that isn't me. I actually started with a 5.45 slant back.

>>32611295
Holy shit you are stupid. This isn't some blogger talking about the MK-107. This is the CEO of KC saying they planned on selling it in 2015. Why would they reveal a compliant model before they got approval from the ATF?

Jesus you are so scared of being wrong you'll contradict a company over what they were planning to do.

>>32611214
So I looked up the Viyaz. In short, it's basically a 9mm AKs-74u, yeah? I don't get it. The firearm is about the same weight or heavier, and the ammo is if anything heavier than 5.45x39, undoubtedly less accurate, possibly higher recoil, though the mags are probably lighter so maybe the issue of ammo weight evens out a bit. The mags themselves will be less cumbersome, sure, but I mean... there seems to be basically all disadvantages compared to the AKs-74u assault rifle, and in spite of the short barrel and the hard hit to energy/velocity, it's still an assault rifle if only barely.

Does it use that over-pressure Russian stuff that's almost as potent as .357 Magnum? That might make it a bit more worthwhile.

>>32611301
I'm not a retard who doesn't know what thick is unlike most of you retards, but she is not that.

>>32611091
That's because the 74M was the basis for the 100 series. It might not bare the name but it is for all intensive porpoises a 100 series AK.

>>32611346
Check out some of her other videos.

>>32611340
He could also say they planned on selling pristine unmolested full auto old stock AK-74s. That carries no weight. He may have just been saying it to increase the outrage at the sanctions, which were a devastating blow to the company.

If you knew shit about shit then you'd know that Izhmash had been "planning" on selling Saiga-9s to the US for quite some time before the sanctions. And it never happened. Like I originally said: there was never a guarantee. I'm not afraid of being wrong because I know I'm not. You are the one scrambling to defend your original asinine baseless remark.

Oh yes, I'm being dishonest. I didn't provide a source or anything for my statements. Clearly the one telling the truth is you who provided nothing but your conjecture. I understand you think the CEO's statements may not have been true. However, you learned to consider sources in school, I hope, and a primary source (the CEO) means more than you who is not a source because you have no information other than your speculation.

>>32611392
Fair enough, I can buy that.

On a completely unrelated note, I just got a letter from the Military. Application to join was denied because of a bullshit form I got filled out by this cunt of a nurse in regards to my drinking that wasn't even accurate. I should have waited to see a DIFFERENT doctor who was FAR more optimistic about me joining and wasn't so terribly critical. I had to rush because of personal reasons, which are also bullshit. Well, I'm getting fucking drunk tonight, but I WILL go for review again. I've cut down my drinking SUBSTANTIALLY in the last 8 months, and have it down to twice a week which is essentially just weekend drinking. Perfectly reasonable! If need be, I'll cut down even more, but I have no withdraw effects from alcohol, and even when drunk, I'm aware of what's going on around me! If I ever say something when drunk, it's the same thing that's on my mind when sober, even if I'd normally not say it. The saying "drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts" DEFINITELY applies to me.

Fucking Hell, this shit pisses me off. Even been eating only 1-2 meals a day for the most part, and went at least one day without eating at all, so I can lose weight! Fuck them; I'm getting in whether they like it or not. I'll get back to where I was in 2013 physically, and I KNOW that drinking is not an issue for me. I have no 'shakes', I no longer have delirium tremens, my only problem is that I'm overweight. That is IT, and it can be fixed. I'm working towards fixing it. Even while overweight I can still do push-ups and sit-ups, and I've already reached out to 300m. If you give me a rifle tomorrow, even a WWII milsurp in decent condition, and a man-sized target at 400m, I'll hit that fucker! Even with irons, mark my words!

Sorry for the rant, had to get that off my chest... but this isn't over. I WILL join, and my drinking is NOT an issue.

>Hey at least you have one, you took the time to source parts and have it built. That more than can be said for nearly everyone else. RPK74(M) builds are uncommon because few people have the will to round up the parts to have one built, so at least you can say that you have one.
Valid point, but I won't be satisfied til it's perfect.

>>32611552
>What did he mess up?
I think we went over it before, but what the hell
>can still see the welds from where he "squared" the rear end
probably won't fix it because it's minor, but still annoying
>dicked up rivets, likely from a vice
Again, minor but annoying and unprofessional
>improper receiver markings
He used the english alphabet instead of cyrillic. I'll likely have this one welded over and properly done. It's actually embarrassing for me considering the amount of effort I put in to tracking down parts. Such a simple thing to not fuck up. All he had to do was tell me he couldn't do it and leave it blank and I would have been happier.
>no dimples on barrel components
Easy fix
>didn't cut the window for the side folder wide enough
I can't even fold my stock right now because the lever can't shift over far enough. Again, easy fix.

Only thing I'm worried about is if I have to get the whole rifle re-parkerized when it gets fixed, or if a builder can just touch up the spots that will be fixed.

If the whole rifle needs it, I'll just send it to PoHF for the fixes and get the moly-resin over park finish for it.
>tfw I couldn't get a hold of Mario for 4 months when I was trying to get it built originally
>tfw when I should have just waited for Mario all along
c'est la vie

Regardless, she's a great shooter, and if molot ever gets more RPKs imported, I'll be getting another one in 5.45 so this one can become my beater and that one will be the collection piece.

>>32611637
Dude you cant seriously think drinking isnt the issue .....

>>32611656
>Valid point, but I won't be satisfied til it's perfect.
And this right here is 100% why I haven't taken the plunge into building. I'm sitting a few kits, but I know that if ANYTHING is off I'll dwell on it and be pissed over it. It NEEDS to be perfect and I know I'd have a hard time both finding somebody with the same level of autism as I do and willing to pay for a perfect build.

>>32611656
Spot parkerizing should be possible. Do you have any well lit photos of the gun?

>>32611656
I thought we had but I couldn't remember.

What a jackass.

>>32611637
Re-read your post from an objective point of view and ask yourself if this poster has a drinking problem

>>32611679
They think it is, but only because of what that bitch of a nurse wrote on that piece of paper. The proper doctor I spoke to was far more optimistic about it, and was clearly going to write it in my favor. I had to hurry however, she wasn't available, so I had to go with a bloody nurse. Like I said, I only drink twice a week now, and if I were cut off completely I'd be just fine. Drinking is a non-issue. I do it because I enjoy it. The last time I drank was the 7th. Guess what; no shakes, and no DT! I went into the woods today to help clear the snowed-in trail so as to get a few more truckloads of wood this Winter, and that's a Hell of a work-out. Both getting wood, and also clearing the trail; we didn't bring the ski-doo. Two of us in just boots, and a third in proper snow shoes.

Now a year ago, if I went without booze and then had a strenuous workout (like walking 5km which I had done many times when I was at College, sometimes also going on 8km walks), I'd be shaking due to pushing myself. Now though, I still haven't had a drink yet today, I was huffing and puffing and sweating like mad in the woods, and I wasn't shaking at all; still not. Now a year ago, yes, the drinking could be considered a problem, but I'm just fine now. I'm at roughly every 3-4 days drink, and I'll continue cutting down to where I'm 5+ days between drinking, likely going to end up just drinking once a week, but it's not an issue. If I suffered from alcoholism, then I'd be suffering withdraw right now. It's been 4 days since my last drink and I have no symptoms. So cut me off completely, I'd be fine. Yeah, I'd miss it, obviously I'd miss it. I fucking love drinking, but that doesn't mean I'm addicted. I love to read as well; I'm not addicted to reading!

>>32611690
Just because someone has a history of alcohol abuse doesn't mean it's currently a problem, provided it's left in history. As stated; I have no withdraw symptoms. I used to experience it once when I was at my worse, but that's a long time ago now. I don't even drink straight liquor anymore, just beer. I don't like it as much, mostly because it has more calories, but I still see it as yet another improvement. Also when I drink, I don't drink as much as I used to. Everything is improving. Just because I was a pretty bad alcoholic once doesn't mean I'm forever a drunk.

>>32611619
What the fuck are you on about? The CEO of KC says "we were planning on selling [MK-107] in the States this year" and you feel the need to write multiple posts screeching at someone who says "yeah, but approval for importation is never a guarantee."

I don't know what world you live in where management forecasts are set in stone, but it certainly isn't ours. When know to some extent what KC planned, but we'll never know what would have actually happened in a world without the sanctions.

>>32611656
Every time I read about build accuracy fuckups it makes me more worried about my own even though AKOU vouched for the guy.

At least I don't have to worry about the receiver markings. 2 year wait for 74u LLC means that's something I'll never have to concern myself over.

Who fucked up your rifle?

>>32611682
Not him, but man I feel you there. I am the worst at nit picking the tiniest things. Even if it's cosmetic, it functional but the gun runs just fine, I'll worry and stress about it forever. I bought one of those Definitive Arms DAKM rifles last year, and some of the parts are different dimensions that my other AKs. It's nothing major, and the gun is the smoothest, straightest AK I've ever seen/ owned, but I worry they messed up the gun somehow because of my autism. Rant over.

>>32611936

what parts?

>>32611827
A small shop in NC. Killer is, I had a Bulgy kit built by them a few years ago and it was perfect. I've also seen other work that they've done and it's pretty good too.

I'm honestly just chalking it up to them biting off more than they could chew with the build. It's honestly my fault for trusting them.

M91/30 or Finnish M39?

Yeah I sold all my Finns in August/September 2015 and the last of my milsurp minus my Garand in like November 2016. I just find more enjoyment learning and referencing all the different variations of a county's service rifle than trying to buy one of each and spending a ton of money on them because that's money I can spend on other things I'd rather buy.

>>32612283
That bayonet cost more than the rifle, original M39 bayonets are scarce and expensive. They were all scrapped post war and very few survived.

Can anyone with an extremely small ak, micro Draco or anything, take a pic of it with a bottle of fireball whiskey in front of the muzzle? I NEED to make a bad pun

>>32612566
I would but that'd mean I have to buy fireball and I'm not sure they sell that to members of the general public who aren't in a college sorority

>>32612341
Bloody shame; always tragic when Military equipment is just scrapped. With the right market, they could actually make a mint off it. But just post-war? I hear very few people were into firearms or bayonets or things then. I guess after such loss of life, people lost their taste for things like bayonets that can't be used for hunting or even target shooting. I mean, anyone here lost a brother, son, father, or someone in the Afghan or Iraq War? I dare say that'd alter your view on the matter. But imagine if you've lost SEVERAL members of your family to the war. A cousin, a brother, a sister who might have been a medic, an uncle who was a higher ranking fellow but ended up getting killed somehow. Suddenly the prospect of buying a bayonet from the conflict that took so many people might be decidedly unwelcome. Just a thought.

Yeah, you're gonna get fucked.

Say you have a Tiger, and it's listed at 3k. But you're getting no offers on it! So you decide it's okay to part it out.

Think about how ridiculous that sounds. Deciding to part out a Tiger because it wouldn't sell at 3k.

Scam written all over it. Any one of these Armslist Tiger sellers, message them saying you're interested and local and would like to purchase it in cash, face to face. None of them will reply. Now message them again saying you're across the country and you see they have it listed at 3,000 but you're wondering if they'll settle for 2,800 shipped.
"Hmm, cash is tight and I need it sold quick so it's a deal"
Scammers are always going to be willing to negotiate because some stolen money is better than no stolen money.

>>32613228
>settle for 2,800 shipped.
Pffftt, I've got a safe full of Tigrs that I just don't shoot anymore. Any one here who wants one can Paypal me the low price of $1900 for a matching Tigr and I'll ship it out first thing this morning

Money is tight, need gone now!!!

>>32613228
He hasn't messaged me back anyways, so I may never end up dealing with him

Most likely course of action will be dealing with some longer shipping times to get one since I can't find a PSO-1 stateside anywhere. I still want that Kashtan too but it's hard to justify 6-700 dollars for a 2.8x optic

>>32613255

>>32613342
Oh trust me, I want a nice collection of slavshit too, but for me the PSO has everything but collector value and the 5.45 BDC over the Kashtan. And I can still zero the scope to 5.45 then learn holdovers on the chevrons

>>32613342

Obzors are nice. But it bothered me that I'd have to throw it away and buy another when the tritium died and I wanted to use it at night.

God that's a sexy reticle. Fuck adjustability. One fixed magnification with range finders for standing and squatting/sitting targets, with specific points of aim for various distances. I don't know how to use those horizontal lines for windage, but that system is awesome. Perhaps a bit difficult for moving targets, but I just love that simple range finder to death! PSO-1 FTW! Even though that's not PSO-1, or at least not the PSO-1 I remember.

That's how a lot of the AK world in the west works. It's very much an oral history type thing; most of the documentation about the subject is in Russian and despite the fanaticism some people have for it, few of them speak Russian. Fewer still can point you to authoritative, cited sources.

Even the Russians themselves didn't record this stuff as well as they should have, from the looks of it. A lot of AK history is basically modern archaeology at this point, and short of it being in something like the Kalashnikov Encyclopedia (which is $200 and relatively recently published), most of the time the best "proof" you'll get is "Tantal said so on AK Forum."

Just how it is.

Then again, it boils down to "literally google" if someone needs an exact source. In /akg/ you're either gonna hear it from a knowledgeable anon or trip, or on a forum you're going to hear it from a knowledgeable user who is nothing more than a username on a screen.

Who is still unbelievable unless they provide some sort of back up to their statements like Fiorentino of The AK Forum did.

Why is this so hard for you people to understand?

>>32613962
Right, but like >>32613933 said, most of the time the evidence can't be presented in a web format. A good example is something I found while doing research for my '83 build, namely, that wood furniture stopped being used on AK-74s in 1985. Is there any sort of hard evidence in a book or technical manual or announcements or anything that one can point to for that? No, the only "proof" is that nobody's seen a 1986-dated full-size AK-74 that used wood furniture.

The thing to keep in mind when dealing with AKs is that the Russians kept such poor records most of the time that most AK production variant and timeline knowledge isn't knowledge so much as it is theory - it's assumed true based on existing findings until it is proven not to be (see also: people thinking Tula never made full-size 74s until Tantal hooked Snickers up with one). Absence of evidence isn't the evidence of absence, that sort of thing.

I'm beginning to think that all you're doing is nitpicking the usage of words when you got BTFO.

>>32614063
Wouldn't be the first thing you believed based on nothing, would it?

>>32614048
It is how theories work. You have whatever evidence you can muster to push a theory, but it's never treated as 100% fact because there's always the possibility new evidence can prove it wrong. It is, however, assumed true when it can be because it's the closest you have to a confirmed truth. Einstein's theory of relativity wasn't proven until last year, but many scientists used it as a building block for their research anyway. It's a similar idea here.

>>32614022
>Why is this so hard for you people to understand?
Because this isn't some enlightening groundbreaking new AK related fact that a source is needed to prove or disprove, it's something as simple as "when did production of AKS-74Us end?" which is little different than when someone asks "Hey what's the arrow in triangle mark mean?" and someone answers "Izhmash." That person doesn't go around screaming for a source for that info simply because simply found and basic knowledge.

Ok AKG,
I'm trying to distribute some weight from my ruck. I'm not a fan of adding on pouches to the Molle I have unless it's on the bottom of my pack.
I have a Chicom already but I'm thinking I'm going to go with a micro chest rig.
What does AKG use? I searched for a GQ thread but no luck, plus I run an Slr so it meant sense to ask you guys. My pack sits at 25 lbs so here's no need to cut some space as I have my essentials down.

I use a South Aftican Pattern 83 chest rig with all of my rifles. It works fine with both 7.62 and 5.45 AK mags, AR mags, and vz.58 mags, and with FAL mags I've got to to stuff a sock in each mag pocket to easily get the mag out

I use one of three different packs depending on how much stuff I want to carry and for how long: either a Czech breadbag for carrying a little for a little bit, an East German combat pack for a medium amount of stuff and for a medium amount of time, or a Swedish LK35 for a lot of stuff for a longer period of time. It's probably 60% of the time the Swedish pack, 30% of the time the East German pack, and 10% of the time the Czech pack (only really use that one when doing a quick hike to a specific spot or something)

It's 1mm pressed steel. If you have a steady hand I suppose you could Dremel in phony dimples 0.5mm thick or thereabouts.

Call them "lightening cuts" to make them sound more l33t tactical operator.

>>32615170
They won't look right; they'd be horribly shallow too.

Honestly you might be better off etching faux "dimples" onto the side like some people do with selector markings.

I was made aware of it back around 2004ish back when 4chan still had frames. Poked my head around in /m/, didn't see anything BattleTech-related, fucked off.

I came back around 2007/2008 when I discovered /b/ and /d/, then found my way to /k/ since I wanted to buy a gun around the time I turned 19 in 2009. From there I bounced out to OPChan for a while for /k/ stuff and stuck around /v/ more than I did my college campus, transitioned over to /vg/ when that became a thing, and then went *chan-less for a year or two. I only recently came back to /k/ this past year since OPChan is pretty dead these days and I can't find too many other places that are eager to talk guns and aren't full of contemptuous old fudds and middle-aged men who blow $3K on each rifle they buy and then sell them for half that when their wives decide to divorce them over the credit card bill.

I must have been about 13 or 14 when I first came here. I turned 27 late last year. I think I've realized I'm gonna be here forever and turn into one of the resident oldfags, but I think I've made my peace with it. Most places don't really accept people like us even if we wanted to leave.

Progressed over to /k/ after a while.
Lurked for about a year before I posted.

Started /akg/ when I got tired of seeing threads about AKs lasting 10-20 posts before sliding off (What AK should I buy guis?), while there was a perpetual AR thread.
Now it's a bastion for you guys, and I hope you keep it going long after I'm gone.

In the begining it seems like I was posting constantly just to keep threads alive.

I am going to say something else unpopular though, and that's is that I don't really see a whole lot of teenagers shitposting much anymore.
Around the time when longcat was king I'd see really really stupid shit all the time and people really wasting their time replying.
I swear it looked like a lot of people would start off conversations samefagging for a while just owant get people in there. Like really really stupid "wat do" threads. I enjoyed the psychedelic trip stories the most around 2-3am.

The handguard retainers and the part of the gas tube that faces you when in the rifle(the end the piston head reciprocates in and out of) seems thinner than on my wasr or Atlantic arms polish parts kit AKs.

Also did your pistons face arrive to you black? Like it was park'd or already covered in carbon? And do you know if any of the parts are cast? I would hope not on a $1000+ rifle, but I couldn't find much info
