The AK47 has the established and well-deserved reputation as perhaps the most reliable battle rifle ever manufactured and produced. There are currently over 30 million of the AK-47 assault rifles in service throughout the world, making it by far the most widely distributed battle rifle. The AK-47 was originally designed by Russian soldier and inventor Mikhail Timofeevich Kalashnikov, who was born in 1919. The number of various Kalashnikov clones, models and copies is voluminous. No matter what type of variations there are on the basic models, the firearm's unique function remains the same to this day.

It is a vicious fire arm,I think it was 1995,I was living in Van Nuys CA closed to N.Hollywood CA and two bank robers made a mess in that area, they were using Ak47, and I think the police department wasn't prepare for that type of fire arms at the end the two bank robers were kill... It is a powerful fire arm.

I like the realiability of the weapon but it has no acuracy at extended range. I also don't like it because you can't add acssesories if you just pick it up. It also dosn't look good at all in my opinion.

If you find yourself in a fair fight YOUR tactics SUCK!

Mikhail Kalashnikov called for global crackdown on civilian gun ownership (works works fine in Switzerland), but he deserves credit for finally (2009) coming clean about who REALLY INVENTED THE AK-47.

Famed 3rd Reich gun designer Hugo SCHMEISSER, captured by our gallant communist allies in WWII, was offered a job under Kalashnikov that he "couldn't refuse." For years, suggestions that the AK-47 was inspired by the German StG44 have been met with hysterical appeals to differing internal mechanism. But in light of recent revelations, it should be no surprise that such a versatile designer as Schmeisser wouldn't be constrained to one approach.

http://transsylvaniaphoenix.blogspot.com/2009/02/michail-kalashnikov-adm...

Peripherally relevant is the widespread disinformation canard that Schmeisser's boss Adolf Hitler was a gun-grabber. In reality, he greatly REDUCED restrictions on firearm ownership and ensured that military rifle ownership was widespread throughout his nation, where he openly mingled with unscreened citizenry (think about that!). The reason Zionist front groups like the obfuscatory JPFO flee at the mention of books like GUN CONTOL IN GERMANY 1928-1945 should be clear to anybody reading a list of the biggest & richest gun-ban supporting organizations and politicians in the US. Senators Schumer, Feinstein, Metzenbaum ring a bell?

Greasypaws- Thanks for replying. Is it the book I mentioned above? (GUN CONTROL IN GERMANY: 1928-1945)(Note: I got the dates wrong in my post above.) It is a fascinating read. Hitler made it legal to own full-autos, he reduced the age limitations, number of guns legal to purchase in one month, he increased concealed-carry licenses from 6 to 12 months, etc. People don't like to hear it, but it's true.

UPDATE: here is a PDF of the entire text, which includes the original German law, a translation, and thought-provoking editorial commentary:

Bro, GUN CONTROL DOES NOT HAVE "NAZI" ROOTS. Quite the opposite.

Read the two-page editorial in the free book I link to above. It's a must read. JPFO may be sincere, but if so, they operate in a possibly unconscious symbiosis with the landslide majority of their tribe members (especially those in power, which is considerable, as they own the news media, they own Hollywood, they own both parties, and they occupy academia) who push to disarm us for the same reason they have pushed to "diversify" the US, Europe, Australia, etc: to weaken their hosts' immune systems.

If we want to extricate ourselves from the mess we're in, whatever our nation or race, we need to think harder. The solutions are not going to be obvious. There's a reason for that.

a group of people representing about 1.5% of U. S. population, and only 2 tenths of 1% of world population are so powerful, that "they" can actually plot to "weaken their hosts'immune systems". To what end?..You must have been quite impressed with the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion". That demonstrates clearly, the complete invalidity of your thesis, not to mention the state of your mental health.

With all due respect, General-

Your lashing out with baseless personal insults is more an indicator of mental health questions, but I don't know you, so I'm not going to reciprocate this silliness.

Even if the figure of 1.5% were correct (it is closer to 4%), we are indeed talking about a huge number of people. And as can be observed directly, this group has an incredible sense of identity, group cohesion, and network of power. This is largely rooted in their religion's unique exclusivity. Judaism, a religion uniquely exclusive, chauvinist and brilliantly organized, has as its holiest text the TALMUD, in which is to be found multiple commands of mandatory hatred. Just one of dozens of examples follows:

Minor Tractates. Soferim 15, Rule 10. This is the saying of Rabbi Simon ben Yohai: Tob shebe goyyim harog ("Even the best of the gentiles should all be killed"). This passage is from the original Hebrew of the Babylonian Talmud as quoted by the 1907 Jewish Encyclopedia, published by Funk and Wagnalls and compiled by Isidore Singer, under the entry, "Gentile," (p. 617).

Their word for us, "goyim," also means "cattle."

Or how's this: Yebamoth 98a. 'All gentile children are animals.'

Only such a disdain for inferiors has preserved their group identity in the Diaspora for the last 2,000 years. Otherwise they'd have assimilated and disappeared as they have us doing to ourselves en masse right now with the mandatory state religion of "diversity" (which is proving to equal 'adversity') they were so kind to craft for us.

All indications are that the protocols constitute a mock-up b the Czar's secret police, though in my view their motives were educational. Its funny this comes up, as today's news about the Romanovs (also ritually murdered by members of the tribe) just had me thinking moments ago of the indisputably Jewish nature of the "Russian" revolution. This case greatly illustrates the nature of this elite tribe: the OVERWHELMINGLY Jewish communist revolution in Russia was financed by Jewish *capitalists* in New York. This speaks to the sincerity of the ideology they espouse. They never care about ideology, they care about what is best for their tribe. Can't blame them; it has catapulted them into global power and the whole world (except Americans and most western Europeans) knows it. This relates to JPFO and "neoconservatism," and the former ideology of the main neocons currently running (more like 'ruining') the Republican party. They are former Trotskyites. They were communists when it helped their tribe to undermine our government. Once the cold war was over and their power within the government was consolidated, they switched to being "conservatives." Pretty simple.

You don't believe it. Fine. You probably also think Bush was dangling from different puppet strings than our new clown Obama. Guess again. They both have their gun-grabbing Israeli handlers (Rahm Emanuel, Michael Chertoff, et al).

The subject we discuss here is one of the final taboos, the most dangerous to so much as peep out loud about if one values his career. There is ONE and only ONE group that cannot be criticized, whose actions, including nothing less than genocidal massacres of Gaza Christians that raged only weeks ago, are excused despite their bloody depravity. The reason is that this group is the unchallenged RULING CLASS of the Western world, and has been since emerging as the only true victor of WWII, which its behind-the-scenes machinations triggered BEFORE Germany rescued its countrymen in "Poland" in September 1939.

Because of the internet, most engaged intellectuals are finally aware that this tribe owns US foreign policy. That AIPAC is the most powerful lobby. That their jealously guarded racial/ethnic integrity (which they have worked tirelessly to undermine in rival groups, primarily white Christians) enables them to make block contributions to both parties amounting to well over 60%, such that they they are permanently owed favors from every level of government. That the IRAQ WAR was NOT about "oil." (Chief war architects Perle and Wolfowitz outlined the Iraq war as the first of several in support of Israeli hegemony in a brief, "CLEAN BREAK," for current Israeli PM Netanyahu in the late 90s).

But how many of them yet realizes that their banking power (which financed their perfect stooge Obama's campaign) and their "diplomatic" power together pale in comparison to their MEDIA power? They own and control at least 95% of the news, entertainment, and academic media of the western world. Hollywood may as well be a suburb of Tel Aviv. Where have you been? It is through this power above all that they shape our perceptions of reality to their advantage, that they decide what controversy is 'hot' and which is 'not,' that they have us believing every lie about the world wars that Spielberg spoon-feeds us, that they have the Western world complacently led to its own grave marked "diversity" and "tolerance." And they play us gullible conservatives (as well as those deluded liberals) like fiddles.

They have us so wrapped up in their never-ending wails of victimhood that we don't dare look deeper to see them as the NATION they are, regardless of their internal differences, their occasional humanity to us Goyim, etc. It is our Holocaust-engendered sympathy alone that curls your gut in disgust that I dare to think outside of this holy box. Imagine the scene in that otherwise forgettable film THE MATRIX. Only now, one pill is marked PERCIEVE ZIONISM, and the other is marked SHRIEK "ANTISEMITISM" and BURY YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND. We have all been conditioned our entire lives to reject with bitter anger and disgust the pill that explains it ALL, to associate the truth that renders it all sensible with the basest, crudest stupidity of idiotic red-necked skinhead strawmen. Think harder, bro.

If you need help, start with the Jewish hero of the 20th century, BENJAMIN FREEDMAN, who suddenly quit his occupation as one of the top three Zionists of the entire world, an advisor to multiple US presidents, and spent the rest of his life and vast fortune explaining it all:

(1) that the German hatred manifested in burned shops and synagogues began not with Hitler's bogus "rejection" from art school, but rather what the Germans called the "great betrayal" in WWI, when the Jews ceased to support Germany and switched sides, using their media control to bring the US into the war on the side of Britain in exchange for the BALFOUR DECLARATION, which "gave" them PALESTINE. Starting to make sense?

(2) That they have always been masters of deception and manipulation ("BY WAY OF DECEPTION, THAU SHALLT DO WAR"), that they had claimed 6,000,000 dead by poison gas many times over BEFORE HITLER CAME TO POWER. Don't believe me? Look up "The First Holocaust." It's a great read.

And so on.

Feeling guilty just reading my forbidden words? Those piles of STARVED (not gassed) corpses blocking your liberty to think? Starting to feel like I should be in prison for my words and thoughts like they do to conservative activists in Europe? More food for thought:

Lazar Kaganovich was the head of the essentially entirely Jewish-led Soviet NKVD. He and his lieutenants MURDERED over TEN MILLION Christians in Ukraine. As he told his nephew biographer in the late 1980s, "Whatever is good for the Jews. Let only that guide your actions." As he did.

Or how's this:

A few weeks ago marked the 64th anniversary of a *literal* holocaust that we all excuse as "good:" DRESDEN, where Allied pilots (like the Zionist Rosie Rosenthal) rained fire from the sky for days on an entirely civilian population of 200,000+ mostly women and children. Or the children of Pforzheim, or any other town where these angels had their flesh burned from their "nazi" bodies. Oh yes, but they're German, and as you might feel compelled to argue here, they deserved it. No 3500+ films for them. And I'm just another hateful neo-Nazi "anti-Semite," right? Guess again. I'm your neighbor. The guy who rescued your dog at the intersection and fixed little Tyrone's bike. I'm the guy who risked his life in defense of the US constitution so you all can wallow in Talmudvision bliss and think that NPR and Faux news are two different things.

Wanna refute me? Read UCLB Professor Kevin MacDonald's THE CULTURE OF CRITIQUE first. It's like swallowing that pill. Can you handle it?

I'll take from my impending deletion here at gunslot that you can't.

(note to Mods- he asked for it. I'm a nice guy. This won't happen often. But then there's something to be said about having a THOUGHT-PROVOKING site, isn't there?)

as you present us with the the old, tired, vitriolic anti-jewish mantra, repleat with cherry picked misinformation and disinformation.
First: arithmetic: approximately 6.6 million of 320 million. That's about 2%.
Second: the Talmud is most certainly NOT the holiest text--The holiest text is the Torah.
Third: if you must quote the Talmud, you ought to know the difference between the "oral law" and the "commentary", from which your quote of ben Yohai comes. Being a commentary, ben Yohai's was subject to challenge and argumentation, and discredited by the most obvious of arguments--It would violate the 6th Commandment[as translated from original language, "Thou shalt not MURDER"].
Fourth; The yiddish word "Goy(im)" means and has always been defined as: "non-jew(s)".
Fifth: Yebamoth 98a- again commentary, argued and discredited: Jewish law recognizes and states, as do the Talmudic rabbis, that Gentiles are made in the image of G-D, and therefore unquestionably human.[see Maimomides and others].
Sixth: Where is the evidence that "they" invented the concept of "diversity", and who is the "us" that "they" created this mandatory state religion for? Further, who is enforcing this mandatory state religion? And where are the churches of this new religion?
Seventh: Rahm Emanuel, Michael Chertoff, et al, are not Israelis, they are citizens of the USA.

And on and on and on........Your cherry picking of opinion and interpretation to demonstrate you worn-out thesis, is nothing but a modernized, warmed over version of the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" and other similar material. You want us to believe that a group of co-religionists who represent 2 tenths percent of the world's population, are engaged in an insidious plot to take over the world. You want us to believe that "they" are doing that by controlling industries that engage in mind-control, and manipulating our economics, all by themselves; You want us to believe that 2 tenths of the world's population is "HUGE", when we know that the REAL existential peril, another co-religionist group representing over 20 PERCENT [over 1.5 BILLION] of the world's population, has sworn to take over the world, ACTUALLY force a state mandated religion, and kill all of us who resist.

You use Kevin MacDonald for an outrageous cherry pick. MacDonald is a scholar, whose work is excellent and relatively objective. He is entitled to his opinion of history and I doubt that his work is inspired by being ardently anti-jewish. His main problem, in my opinion, is that he seems mired in the 1950's, and may very well project to many people, that the old cliche--"what's past is prologue"--is always valid. You have used his opinions as though they were incontrovertible fact to support your virulence, and that is unforgivable.

You use the motto of the Mossad as though that philosophy has never been used by any other country or any other people. [Bad, bad Israelis!!] Are you so blind as to believe no one else uses or has used the technique of misinformation and disinformation to confuse and and create chaos for their adversaries? YOU have done it here, in your "war" against the Jews. [If you want a lesson in deception and manipulation, see for example, the Treaty of Huddaibya, or more recently the story of the Soviet's 60 intercontinental bombers passing in review 10 times, or just CIA techniques.]

It is obvious that you use pathological thinking to demonstrate that only others are privileged to defend themselves against attack. You accuse the USA and its WW II allies of a holocaust against Germany, and the Israelis of a holocaust against the Gaza. Yet you brag about defending YOUR country. Would you stand by and allow a madman to take over the USA? Would you permit Venezuela, Cuba, or Mexico to bombard the southern tier of the USA without a response?

I find your breast beating about risking your life defending the Constitution, maudlin and pathetic. Do you seriously believe you are the
only one who has done that? I have the honor of participating in Military Funeral Honors ceremonies --many too many-- at National Cemeteies, every week of the year. Yes, most of the headstones are emblazened with crosses on them, but many more than you would guess, also display the six pointed star.

I invite you to spread your virulent disease elsewhere.

if its a romanian military kit, that maybe an OK price. If its an WASR, which it likely is, you could probably find a better deal. You could find WASR's for $400 all day a couple years ago, but since the election the prices have gone up. All military grade AKs have to be shipped to the U.S as kits and assembled here with some U.S parts. The WASR's were imported as sporting rifles.
Also, if you're looking to spend that much, look into a bulgarian or norinco rifle. or arsenal or lancaster. just my opinion
