I mean the AK fires in bust of 2 or more rounds every time I pull the trigger. It real fun but not allow at the range on Plant Road (Cryptsharp Range I believe). To fix it, I have to file the trigger sear and replace trigger spring and recoil spring.

Um, that rifle is considered full auto by the BATFE, and as an unregistered full auto, you are committing a felony by having it and not having it fixed IMMEDIATELY.

To the BATFE is doesn't matter WHY is it doing it, the fact that it is doing it is a BIG problem.

I agree 100%. It has been fixed long ago!

STOP, Enough already.... now we have finally settled this AR -VS-AK thing. If we could only settle the 9mm-VS-45 thing there would be no reason for this board.

oh no, AR's are unreliable junk too because of this one isolated incident.

Good, you were not clear on that point.

Anything hold more than 30rd is unreliable. Don't waste your $.

No they are not.

40 Round Magpul PMags work great for AR's, so do surefire mags.

Most AK Drums, 40 Round Bulgarian Waffle AK Mags and 40 Round Steel Chinese AK Mags work great too.

I did not dare to compare AK with AR. They eat me alive. :sad20:

AK lasts 265 rounds with steel cased ammo before before deadlined

AR lasts 830 rounds with steel cased ammo before deadlined

Is English not your primary language? Just a curiosity, not attempting to be insulting.

I've had a very difficult time trying to decipher what you've been saying. Having been on the road for 17 hours probably didn't help.....

Might Mr. Slowshooter's nation of origin be Vietnam? You are not compelled to answer. It's none of anyone's business.

Not sure a Century built rifle lubricated with vegetable oil is a solid representation of the durability of an AK rifle

I had the sound turned down but Did I see right but the AR is a custom built HBAR.
I thought I could see the barrel change to a lighter shade as he was shooting.

Would I really want to use steel case bi metal jacket ammo for reliability? Hmm

No because embedded videos don't show on android devices on this forum. Since that's all I have available to browse the forum during my tdy, no. I haven't seen any videos. It was just a question; there's no need to be a defensive dick about it.

Please look at my other post about the AR-18, it might give you a hint or two. Happy thanksgiving to all.
