They never hit a damn thing and had to rely on fists once the mags went dry. I always wondered why they chose the Mini-14 for that show.......

So they gave an accurate representation of the firearms real-world performance? First time in TV history?They never hit a damn thing and had to rely on fists once the mags went dry. I always wondered why they chose the Mini-14 for that show.......
It was a joke.So they gave an accurate representation of the firearms real-world performance? First time in TV history?
I'm a little confused… because if you want your trigger finger to only pull the trigger then how do you shoot and then chamber a round in a bolt action? Lever action? Manipulation of safety for an SKS? AK? And then there's the manipulation of the safety on the pump shotguns or how do you shuck it?It is workable but not ideal.
I want to be able to unsafe my weapon without my finger in the trigger guard. When it comes down to weapon manipulation, I want my trigger finger to have exactly one job, pull the trigger.
The AK roots are from the Garand and StG 44.
I just "sourced " this one.I have most of the firearms mentioned or had them at some point… M1A mags are pricey, so are FAL mags, HK mags, and the list goes on… people need to stop focusing on having 50 mags that hold 30 rounds and cost them $11 each… if you want to know about "expensive/pricey" mags go ahead and buy a mag for HK416, MP5 or better yet get a couple for the 50 Barrett. Look not all rifle are the same… not all mags are the same… but everyone expects HK quality but KCI prices! Oh yeah find a Bakelite under $80 nowadays… @Knobgoblin you know how pricey those AK74 mags are lol
First and foremost I was speaking of semi-auto fighting carbines. That said, I don't own any bolt actions or an SKS, don't really care to. Lever actions, it is not an issue. AK I shoot left-handed and use my support hand to manipulate the safety, although I'd like to try a Krebs ambi-safety. Pump shotguns no problem, my preferred style is a Mossberg tang safety but on my 870 I replaced the stock button safety with a Vang Comp Dome safety and the stock is a Speedfeed IV stock, that combination allows my to swipe off the safety using my thumb similar to a 1911.I'm a little confused… because if you want your trigger finger to only pull the trigger then how do you shoot and then chamber a round in a bolt action?

I am just confused but it's easy to do at times. Maybe a diagram for me. I just believe in practicing manual of arms
I have to wonder how the sks safety works for a lefty.First and foremost I was speaking of semi-auto fighting carbines. That said, I don't own any bolt actions or an SKS, don't really care to.

Hope that helps with your confusion, sorry no diagram. I too believe in practicing manual of arms, but just the ones I own and have configured my way.
I've only used stock Mossberg safeties but I could see one of these being an improvement...I have to wonder how the sks safety works for a lefty.
I like it well enough right handed. What do you think of the aftermarket, oversized mossberg safeties?
That sums up my opinion nicely, as well. (yes I know this is an old thread)I own one. I like it. I realize it's not an AR. I don't care. I enjoy shooting it. No regrets.
They used to land on the surplus market occasionally.If they had not been priced out of reach pricing versus other options I'd still be considering one. I still like these little carbines, but I think my chances of owning one are dwindling each time their prices increase. I feel like Ruger used to produce these in large quantities, but now the AR they make us the hot rage so these likely get limited runs and the demand has definitely dwindled away so naturally they are more expensive now!
I love the flower & pot, o & the suppressor on the top!This is the one I had for many years, but sold not all that long ago. At one point I replaced the stock with an aftermarket one and had the barrel threaded.
