About the same. I use Magpuls in my AR and Tapco in my AK. I’m pleased with both.

Isn’t 30 rounds the standard for AKs? They’re calling it high-capacity.

You should always satisfy your needs before your wants. Why wait?

“Why wait?”
I’m not I’ve been shopping around, and I found a kit that I want to use to build up the stripped lower I bought when Obama got elected. Need to sell a couple things to fund it.

That’s the claim of “Brandon,” anyway. He sells a guide that claims to show how to legally “sell & make full-auto weapons.”

Full auto fire is overrated, by the way. It’s suitable for situations with large numbers of soldiers on two opposing sides, but that’s about it. It’s often even detrimental to some soldiers, leading them away in practice from better training (accuracy, drills).

Excellent! You know the quality of the steel there because you can actually count the carbon molecules.
