got some cash and wanna play

[LORD of WAR]

ok...need a new toy...

im considering either a preban underfolder norinco AK

or a dsa stg58c carbine

they are both around the same price...what do you guys suggest?

need help makin this decision as ive been losing sleep about which one to buy

The AK is a bit more practical because of its size and weight. You sacrifice punch by choosing it over the .308, but you'll have trouble free function and higher magazine capacity. Plus theres so much you can do with an AK, especially a higher end model like the Norinco, if you want the black rifle look.

If you've got enough...Why not both?

haha i knew some one would say that...i have just barely enough to get both...then id be broke for a few weeks...unless i can work some kind of deal


mil4me...only reason why im leaning toward the stg was the fact that it was .308...i have an arsenal ak and a mak90 in 7.62x39 and a vepr k in 5.45

the only factor thats making it difficult for me is i fell in love with the look and compactness (if thats a word) of the underfolder stock

I remembered after I said both, that you've got another toy to save up for Should be before the end of the year, BTW.

What about a krink build? Those sidefolders are sweeet.

Krinks are nice (been considering it myself), but then there's the CLEO sign-off and $200.00 NFA tax stamp to consider.

I would get the Fal. I hate underfolding stocks on an AK.

If you want an AK, get a preban with a regular stock on it and then put
an ACE folder on it if you really want to have that feature.

Then on top of that in MA if you want one that folds you'd have to
use a preban reciever to build it. Otherwise you have to deal
with pinning it open. Kinda defeats the purpouse of a Krink. (SBR
registration doesn't bypass the limitations imposed by the AWB, at least
it didn't when federal AWB was still in effect... and I don't think MA has
any SBR exception to the MA AWB either. )

i would love a krink build but dont wanna deal with all the other bs that goes along with it...if i were to do anything along those lines id try and get the green card so i could get some aow's like an ak pistol

My vote is for the STG FAL. I think the STG kits are probably the best of that variant. I've shot both the rifle and carbine extensively and really like the way they handle. I've had an AK, but not for very long. It felt way too small for me and I couldn't get over the "crudeness". A lot of people love them. I don't.

In that case being that you already have like 3 other
high quality AK's, I'd go for the FAL, if I was in
your shoes. Just make sure you find a nice source
of milsurp to feed the thing. If you look around hard
enough you can still find some places selling SA milsurp
for not too much money.

What is a "Krink"? Is that $200 a one-time, or yearly fee?

 

[M.Nastek]

AK all the way

The AK dollar for dollar will do the job day after day. Round after Round

AKS-74U, but I've seen the term applied to just about any short barreled AK with folding stock.

It's also the AK associated in pics with Bin Laden.

The $200.00 NFA SBR tax stamp is a one time fee (however, it must be paid again if transfered).

well i finally got it...went to pick up the dsa fal and it was gone

but...as luck may have it...they had a like new jld ptr 91 with an aimpoint already mounted on it...didnt have the cash on hand so i put a deposit...but now im a happy lil boy

however i do think ill order one of the fals by the end of the year hopefully

 

[vellnueve]

I'd go for the FAL.
