I have to work really hard to get my cheek weld on the stock low enough to use the iron sights on an AK. The SKS has more drop in the comb so I have no problem using the iron sights.

That explains a lot.

Said no gun owner ever.

At the link stated if found guilty he will quickly discover that his golden parachute doesn't exist. I'm betting that as I type this he is trying to figure out how to cut a plea deal in an attempt to preserve as much of his ill gotten gains as he can.

Pull the chain drive sprockets and take them to a good industrial supply house. They can match up two belt drive pulleys to replace the chain drive. Hopefully your system has a working slip clutch. The few systems I have seen relied on the belt to act as a safety to prevent a horse from being injured.

The AKM is easy to distinguish from the AK-47. The AKM has a small dimple stamped into the receiver right above the magazine. This is there to support the magazine because of the thinner stamped steel receiver. The AK-47 has a larger milled area on the lower forward side of the receiver. This is to reduce the weight of the receiver. The thicker milled receiver already fully supports the sides of the magazine

Learned something new. What people commonly call an AK-47 is actually an AKM. AKM VS. AK-47: WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? Evolution Of The AKM

Wonder if there is one running around in your name that someone else is driving?

Yes I have seen something similar on cedar trees.

What powder are your using? How many grains? What bullet weight? What bullet profile? What is the cartridge OAL?
