    ETA I joke about getting a Para FAL and joining AOCs Love Contras and setting up a Meso-Americans Mercenary ethnostate but the simple fact is...,

    I’m not getting a FAL. I have an HK91 I keep because I got a good deal on it and rarely shoot it. When I DO get time to shoot, I wanna actually shoot so I stick with my AR stuff.

    The only guns I own I go outta my way on for cool points are my Garand and my 1911. But even those are ....hobbies. I won’t say “toys” because one day I firmly believe I will have to go toe to toe with the Waffen SS, a Nipponese Banzai charge, or a million screaming Red Chinese and the only apropos gun is a Garand
    Can't switch to 1911 or Glock. They're not piston guns!!!!! Reliability = 0

    Only options are BRNO FK, PSP, Hudson H9

    I know. I suck. I will never be in Spetsnaz or the Selous Scouts. And somehow life will go on.

    I will never be a rugged man with steely blue eyes carrying his trusty FAL.

    I will have to take my rank with the other bicurious people and their lameass SR-25s. So, I’ll see you all at Pride! Except 7n6. He’s keeping Africa huhwite

    I bet you don’t even have maritime spring cups in your Glocks....

    I hadn't thought of that, or heard of maritime spring cups. I'm so behind the eight ball. I just have to figure out how to keep it in my shorts while doing flips off the diving board. Don't wanna be the pool version of that FBI agent at the bar.

    Fair enough.

    I bet your one of like 3 sober people in this thread. Probably spend your spare time shooting guns instead of pouring mud in guns you don’t shoot.

    If people didn't do this then what would people argue about on the internet?

    I'm in the same boat as the op. IMHO it's time to move on. Sell the Chicom and use the funds to get a quality optic for your AR.

    Wow, this one is even better than the other dumpster fire.
    Now, somebody needs to go start one in the handgun section, maybe glock vs 1911, or sig vs borchardt.
    Why the broomhandle is better than an hk.

    I hadn't been keeping up with AK prices, there's still a wasr in the safe, with a straight front sight, even. Fetching that kind of cash, it might be time to go...........
