LOL, I was waiting for someone to call that out. It is from a company called RBCD Ammo, 77grain but I can't find the specifics of what they shot it out of for testing. So take it with a grain of salt. I figured so many here cherry pick facts, why can't I .


Most of the 10mm I shoot is 1200-1500 FPS and around 600-700 lbs of energy.

Very...and I couldn't imagine price on it. Good , NORMA spec 10mm isn't cheap.

Really? It is very odd that he continues to refer to rifles incorrectly then. Last I heard, every marine is a rifleman.

...And NO...NO ONE is paying $20K+ for something as mass produced as the AK is.

To put it into perspective...there are very tough laws on distributing and possessing heroin, but numerous cities and states have major heroin epidemics going on right now, point is, if so many drugs can CONSISTENTLY reach their destination, why would illegal machine guns be any different? Its all about supply and demand.
and just to point it out

the ak47 is the 7.62 version
the ak74 is the 5.45 version

Very wrong. Both the AK-47 which is in 7.62x39 caliber, and AK-74 in 5.45x39 caliber are both FULL AUTO/SELECT FIRE. There are semi auto clones that are sold in both calibers. SEMI AUTO ONLY.

There is so much misinformation out there it is no wonder anti legal gun idiots have their views.

Ak74s were full auto as well, just in 5.45x39.
