why is there an AK47 in this Porsche? You'd expect at least and AR15...

I'm a fan of the AR's also but if thrown in the bush and the muck, I'd prefer to have an AK.

That's my Christmas present to myself. Bought a stripped imported Romanian WASR 10 ban period AK and put wood furniture on it. Need to thread and shorten the barrel still.

I'm a gun collector. Big WWII collection (all the Band of Brothers guns), cowboy, a few ARs (one is a build of Arnold's in Predator with the M203 launcher) and several shotguns. Also have a Polish AK74 that's a ton of fun to shoot. Only German gun is a WWII surplus flare gun.

I read an article that said General Kalashnikov would be dug up in a month, inspected, and returned to service and was expected to be fine.

Despite my love of the AR-15 I developed in bootcamp, I sold mine & got a H&K Benelli
M1 Super90 Combat Shotgun. Anticipating closer range targets.

Get both!!

I'm over 30 firearms now. Love shooting each one. I load almost every bullet I shoot as well and make match quality ammo and gunsmith all my friend's guns.

Only 2-3 are really defense. Tommy guns are not practical SD guns but fun as hell!! I let the kids and scouts at the range shoot the Thompsons. They like to get pics with the fun guns. Like working on the Porsche, I enjoy gunsmithing.

My father gave me a WWII era M1 Garand many years back as a present, he obtained it from the CMP while they still had them. I also have his Ithaca manufactured 1911 A1 .45 that was his personal side arm while active in the service. He was an officer and purchased it from the military for $25.00, still have the receipt. I use to be into firearms but lost interest several years back, still have them all in the safe. Those 2 do have special meaning to me though.
