...I mean, the AK is a carbine. It's in the name.
And, well, it has a piston. So...
The AK-47, officially known as the Avtomat Kalashnikova (Russian: Автомат Калашникова, lit. 'Kalashnikov's automatic [rifle]'; also known as the Kalashnikov or just AK)
That font of knowledge, Wikipedia, seems to disagree (emphasis mine):
That said, and all that having been said, I like the cut of your jib. Allow me, in parallel, to recommend a Tanker M1A

Aaah, "self-loading carbine of (the) Simonov system." I learned a thing!Oh.
I think I was thinking of the SKS. Still works, lol.

Clearly, OP needs both.
Sadly, I never got one when they (and ammo) were still relatively inexpensive, and my collector drive just isn't there enough to get one now...
I still haven't even gone down that path yet.The SKS is a delight, but once you have enough AK47s it's sorta extraneous.
Those sniper legs are sexy.
I looked at the LWRC. Reviews on accuracy weren't stellar.HK or the LWRC. Otherwise why bother?
Here for you, babe.
Shouldn't this be in the "Flex on the poors" thread?

So it is.Ha, this is the original flex on the poors thread, and not just because my preference was HK.
Or if you have monkey arms they are annoyingThe SKS is a delight, but once you have enough AK47s it's sorta extraneous.
Any of the 4 brands you just named make you a mall ninja...and thats coming from someone that owns 2 pws's and loves themFrom that list, if you don’t care about a folding stock, PWS for ambi and HK for non. I’m picking based on the lower so there will still be some other piston upper options if you decide to switch. The LWRC lower is similar to the PWS but I don’t like how the left side controls are close together.
I would fall under mall ninja with LMT.
Thats the gun of the mall cop they call to hunt down the mall ninjas
Surefire RC2 on a knights? What are you? Poor? Jokes aside I like a good RC2 more than a QDSS or similar anyways

I once again must petition for an eyeroll quick emoji response.Uh cause it’s not a carbine?
I have a Scorpion Evo3 S1 SBR that fills that niche nicely. If I go with another PCC, it will be an HK USC/UMP conversion in .45ACP. Not on the list in this thread because I've been focused on rifle calibers, not PCC's.Ar-9 and build it how you want it?
