AK-47 (Political Discussion)

It's the AR-15 fever, isn't it, Z?

Nah, just that I'd rather be shooting an LWRC M6, Barrett REC7, or HK416 (all equally respected) instead of an AK-47. I miss my M6.




My LWRC was a good rifle. The shot group below was done with iron sights, 50 yards, with an LWRC M6A2 14.7" 1/7 Twist using Remington .223 68 grain. Due to the 1/7 twist, I found typical 55 grain ammo was not nearly as accurate as it was with a 1/9 or 1/10 twist barrel, but found 68-69 grain to be a sweet spot.

Shot groups like the one below were quite easy when you had the right ammo. This particular one was done with iron sights, which I tended to prefer over the EOTech 552 holosight I also had mounted. The EOTech had a 1 MOA dot but I tended to find it less accurate than iron sights.

screw Yalll XD... I can get arrested for having a BB gun in my Home while u guys can shoot AK47 and HK416 in your back yard XD

The reasons for that are quite simple... While your nanny state government is worried about you owning a machete, we're in public packing iron, oftentimes not even needing a license. It's called "liberty." Maybe Europe should try it sometime.

Come to America, my friend.

Ahh man about the "livberty" Issue... I don´t know man :S ... Crime in Portugal is growing, yes, but there is little violent crimes, esporadic... And the violent crimes are made by gypsies or Brazillians or Ukranians people... Portugese People is very pacific normally, but yes, some make violent crimes too... I kinda feel safe knowing that not everyone can pack a 9mm when im in the streets ... I wouldnt feel safe just because i had a 9mm, and all the ppl in the streets could pack 1 too ya know :S...

COnclusion: Yes, i would like to shoot some weapons ... But put the USA weapons law in Portugal nooo :S ...
It is a very bad issue too discuss for noone is right in this one :S, depends only of the view of the legislator... :S
