Bigger round doesn't necessarily mean bigger kick. AKs just have a shitty recoil system. Pretty shitty weapon really. They're just idiot-proof is all.
@einsatzdeath lol bashing on the most successful assault design in history isn't very intelligent. I find any rifle that can hit a man sized target at 300 yards and is completely reliable to be an outstanding rifle. Especially when you look at the cost compared to other systems.
@LcplMartin1986 By the only standard you've given, we should have never switched from bolt-action rifles to semi-autos. I'd say that considering any weapon to be beyond criticism "isn't very intelligent."
bigger round = bigger kick. and i doubt you can do anything to these things short of completly smashing them to bits to break'em, evn if they dont work as good.
danged if I know...that's one of the major failings of the AK... slows down a reload by the bolt not staying open... I know there is an aftermarket kit that will hold the bolt open after the last round for a quicker magazine change and maybe it's showed up on the battlefield... that was my son in the video the pogues were shooting captured weapons at Al Asad airbase.....
@Elcic Or you can just do a "tactical reload" while holding the bolt open with your right hand keep the pressure against your shoulder. Using a full magazine to remove the old one and insert it then releasing the bolt and sending it home.
aks dont have bolt locks...did it happen to catch on the trigger on the last shot or something?

@ilovecats748 it was probably extremly dirty(can cause the bolt carrier to catch up) or had a kit installed.

@einsatzdeath judging by your "logic" your ether a child or an imbecile. Ether way not worth further debate...

@LcplMartin1986 Judging by your manner of speaking, you've clearly been let in because of the DADT repeal. Go trip on an IED, fag.

AK's are for close combat. Ever see the the Hollywood bank shootout?? Thats why more people wern't injured and none killed.

it's because they used steel core ammo, which just went through people rather than fragmenting

Like Elcic said, these weapons were all confiscated from detainees we received. They weren't all in the greatest shape.
