While we are on the subject I thought I would post one last bit of humor.

AK, Moisin, then AR.... well, okay I don't have an AR-15, but I do have a couple of each of the others. I like them and the AK isn't that inaccurate.  :P

Having 4 AR variants, I can say don't waste your time.  The AK would be my go to weapon if it came to that.  The Mauser or Nagant would be next.

Kind of sad that I would chose a 75+ year old Russian bolt action over the service weapon of my own nation for the last 40 years........

Strumkatze, if you are ever out my way and have time give me a call.  I can arrange some private range time to try out some stuff you probably haven't played with. (and more fun time with the stuff you know)

Being a US Marine, I do like the M16/M4 however, only at close range, say, out to 200 yards maybe 300.  If I were to go out farther I would want something bigger and heavier.  I Would the the M1 Garand or the M14.  If it were a bolt action, the Springfield Armory Model 1903 in the great .30-06.
