2 million dead Germans can't be wrong... long story short, I met a guy who was hit square in the chest with a 7.62x54R round, it damn near killed him from his heart being severely bruised from a hit on his plate carrier that was shattered on impact... of course the rate of fire leaves much to be desired, from a 91/30.

I have an M44, M28 and a Chinese Type 53 carbine. They are basically bolt action 30’06’s. I damn sure wouldn’t want to get hit with one but would never voluntarily choose any of them over any modern weapons system.

I have terrible luck, maybe reverse voodoo myself

Mornin' gents! Sounds like y'all getting some of that Oklahoma weather.

If you hear the sirens go off, do NOT get in a storm cellar. Go out in the middle of the street to look at the sky. See those other folks doing the same thing? They are your kin.

J/K - my uncle and aunt survived the "big one" in 1999 because they got in a storm cellar. Nice, two story houses in that neighborhood. When they came out of the cellar it was flat as a prairie.

Damn that one went for $221.50 after shipping, a little more with taxes and "fees"

So, if I'm reading this right, this is a Russian 1911?

I wouldn't even choose one over a Mauser or Enfield for that matter.

Would be neat-o if the AK mag was a Chinese metal instead of a PMag, but still really cool.

That's awesome! Great detail in the mold.

We chased our AKs here
Dug our ARs there
But can you still recall
The time we cried
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Yeah

What's the going rate on a lightly used Arsenal SLR-95 these days?

I like the all factory, non messed with, non "converted" ones. I would tell you what they are going for, but then I would to post my AK nurse's picture along with all her friends.

No, the round he was hit with came from a 91/30, or a PSL type rifle. I think the pistol round you are thinking of is 7.62x25 tokarev. I remember that ammo being super cheap for the longest time, but it dried up about 10 years ago. From what I understand 7.62x25 is a "hot" round and penetrates quite well.

I'm bad at jokes... it was a Lord's Caliber joke.
