[QUOTE="TallPrairie, post: 1082026, member: 7815"] Everybody's still got their AKs etc. They're just not selling them. Folks don't accessorize them as much as ARs, so there's not much to talk about. All the AK "needs" is a simple optic mount & an Aimpoint T-1. Boom, you're done. Great fighting rifle. (An SKS you can accessorize like crazy with Tapco stuff, but I don't see the point. Leave it stock.) 7.62x39 is a good close- to mid-range rifle gunfighting cartridge. Not as surgical accuracy as 5.56/.223 but good penetration and stopping power. We're just starting to see some high-octane modernized fighting bullets such as the Cor-Bon DPX in 7.62x39 -- that's a hellacious round (and $$$). The Robinson Arms XCR in 7.62x39 is an impressive concept. I wish magazine availability was clearer. [/QUOTE]
