The Russian…
There is one gun that is impeding my AR-15 build. I mentioned a few posts ago that my preferred “wasteland” gun(s) would be an RPK-74 and AK-74. A friend of mine is willing to sell me his 74M (not the one pictured but you get the idea) if I can get the money before February 14th. He wants to buy his girlfriend an engagement ring for Valentine’s Day.
This will be an interesting deadline to work with but seems worthwhile.

Muzzle flash…
The rather common “fireball” from a Mosin Nagant carbine, in this case an M38 but you’ll see the same result from an M44 or M91/59. Definitely more impressive at night, there is some complaint that this is also illustrate the wasted energy from the shorter barreled Mosins. Regardless, I wouldn’t want to be on the other end to experience what wasted ballistic energy there is.

ATI StG-44
The .22 LR copy of the famous German rifle that changed the modern battlefield. They are all shipped in a wooden crate, minus the swastikas of course. A follower asked why do most .22 LR rifles and handguns have magazines with side cutouts. From what I read it is meant to help with easy reloading and quick round count assessment. The .22 LR semi-autos were never meant to be military grade firearms to be used on the field. A magazine with a side cutout would be susceptible to debris and dirt which could cause jamming.

Rock River Arms LAR-47
The marriage of the AR with AK seems to finally be in a mass produced form. Knights Armament had designed an AR using AK magazines called the SR-47 but never sold it to the public. Micheal’s Machines had the AR-47 lower but I’m not sure they make those anymore either. The LAR-47 uses a unique lower and upper in order to use both steel and polymer AK magazines. No estimated release date set but seems RRA is taking pre-orders. Could arrive the end of the year or more likely next year.

FN P90
A member of the Secret Service with the FN P90. This bullpup chambered in 5.7x28mm replaced the older UZI sub-machine guns that agents used to carry. The German military, probably still bitter at FN-Herstal for the FAL fiasco, refused to adopt the FN P90, preferring to stick with the H&K MP7.

Calico M-100
The carbine version of the M-110, it still has the .22 LR caliber. Calico’s fell victim to the Assault Weapons Ban and had to conform to the new laws. This one sports the wood furniture in a less aggressive look. Note the rather rare factory scope mount. Unlike the 9mm versions which eject spent cases downward, the .22 LR models eject from the side like regular rifles and handguns.

So its the same gun with the same capability’s as the other one but now they have slapped a few curves and some wooden furniture and now its just fine. Honestly I don’t know why Governments are so retarded. “Oh no it looks scary so lets ban the shit out of it” I mean come on thats just stupid.

Hand Cannons…
Well the Desert Eagle .357 is kind of small in comparison to the much larger cartridges out there now. As requested, a picture of my Taurus Raging Bull 500 with the 10” ported barrel, alongside my Desert Eagle XIX .357. I was going to add a caliber comparison but I’m out of 500 S&W ammo. It costs me about $75 for a box of 20, and since I’m job hunting I can’t go buying ammo to feed it again yet.

Intratec TEC-9
While it sounds cool and doesn’t look like much, this simple little pistol has an infamous history. Originally a Swedish design, the gun appeared on the U.S market for a fairly cheap price. It would later be used in the Hollywood 101 Shooting and more infamously the Columbine High School Massacre. Intratec, the U.S maker and distributor went out of business years ago, a mix of poor sales and bad stigma attached to the shootings after the assault weapons ban.
