Worst day in afghan war.

You likely own a fraud and it is likely not a genuine AK47.

My mom told me about how she used to have classes where she was taught and practiced how to disassemble and assemble an AK47, and also fired them at a range.  Why they had the women doing this I will never know, but she told me for a fact that they were quality and were pretty well made (hence why the loving AK47 is so god damn popular despite being made in 1947).

Nope, we are only permitted to buy police-checked ones here from legal sources. Paint just clogs every gun you fire those bullets with up, really.

It's probably a reproduction, it probably doesn't have a full-auto setting because it's a reproduction meant for civilian use and not for combat.

Then don't buy russian ammunition with paint on it because it's also probably a fraud.

Fraudulent items don't have to be illegal.

Exactly.


The AK47 gained fame and was used by the USSR due to the fact that it was DURABLE and easy to operate.  If it truly jammed a lot and broke down frequently it wouldn't be in use at all because it's a drain of money.

[TeslaCoil]

I still say we nuke them

They sell these kind of bullets in huge amounts, but you just need to look after your gun and clean it every time after shooting.

[Feep]

Yes, let's nuke countless innocents and a good resource.  Been there, done that.

almost every country has troops dying over there. it's better to kill an entire country than lose tons of lives over some stuff religion war.

it's not like the US hasn't dropped a nuke over a religion war before

[Tokthree]

To those guys saying that the AK47 is an unreliable piece of stuff, you're idiots.
I once watched a documentary, they drove over a real AK47 in a military jeep, submerged it in water for several minutes and then dumped sand all over it.

It still fired off an entire magazine without jamming, even after that

solve the killing by dropping a nuke that will create no mans land for years.

that makes sense. this thread is an accurate representation of why the legal voting age is 18. Teenagers cannot be trusted to make sound decisions on national affairs

Dropping one nuke will cause a stuff storm in the world and probably result in a nuclear war. The irony of such an act would be loving astronomical, too.

WWII was not a "religion war".
And that's the only war they actually used nukes in.
In fact, that's the only use of nukes in war ever.

Most of the people over there are completly innocent.

After the USSR invaded Afghanistan, a stuffton of surplus arms and munitions ended up there. It happens every time there's a war in a far-off country, stuff gets left behind. Besides, the police and army of middle-eastern countries will sometimes sell their weapons and ammunition for a little extra money.

Besides, not many people actually own true-blood AK-47s, they're mostly just garage reproductions or chinese Type-56s (developed when the USSR switched over to the AKM in 1956).

The afghanistanis don't really liked being walked all over by NATO, insurgency is bound to happen when NATO forces keep stirring things up.

The AK47 gained fame and was used by the USSR due to the fact that it was DURABLE and easy to operate.  If it truly jammed a lot and broke down frequently it wouldn't be in use at all because it's a drain of money.

(The Korobov TKB-517 was actually cheaper to produce and more reliable than the AK-47, yet the design was turned down because the Red Army was more familiar with the AK. Derp USSR.)

Also what's all this nonsense about surplus 7.62x39mm being awful, it's copper-washed steel cases and lacquered bullets, it's not going to cause stoppages more frequently than expensive PRVI rounds with brass cases. The priming substance is corrosive and will leave salts in the bore which will encourage rusting if you don't clean them out, but you should clean your rifle after firing it anyway.

[Tingalz]

OP's logic seems to be "I'm tired of soldiers dying, so let's send in more soldiers to die!"

[SlayerZ99]

Idiot.
If we do that then the US will be in even deeper stuff.

Unless we nuke every place in the world besides USA and we're the last standing. :D

[Nom|Aplem|Nom]

Well, its not like American idiots have not already loving nuke'd a place.
