Do AK's ever jam?
>>27933256
it is possible, but you really need to work hard to achieve that in normal circumstances.
>>27933256
Russian made Kalashnikovs should never jam. But alot of the AKs you'll find aren't genuine, so yes.

Do farts ever stink?
Mine does with the Russian bakelite magazine... Well just fails to strip a new round off...
>>27933256
Yes.
That's a moronic question.

I kek'd heartily when I saw this the first time.
>>27933256
I've heard they will cycle with just about anything thrown into the barrel. But would an AK jam if you put another AK inside it?
Of course. Anything can jam.
The example of an AK doing so coming to my mind was during North Hollywood. One of the robber's got a stovepipe, didn't know how to clear it, so he ditched his rifle and pulled out a Beretta 9mm.

Cowering in the corner is now bravery?

>doesn't know how to clear a stovepipe
I don't even own an AK and I'm almost certain I could clear a stovepipe with ease. You just remove the magazine, and cycle the bolt, right?
Unless it kept stovepiping and he just gave up, I don't see why one stovepipe would make him ditch his main rifle.
Am I missing something?
>>27933410
Yes, you forgot the ease of clearing a stovepipe. All ive ever done it just rack the slide/bolt and, like magic, the gun is back in operating condition.
>>27933410
Bear in mind the North Hollywood shooters were high as balls at the time.
Ive had a round of wolf where the extractor ripped a chunk out of the case instead of extracting it. Had to hammer it out with a rod.
Faulty ammo and shit mags can jam anything.
>>27933410
Seriously?
No, you strip the casing out and let it go into battery. It's that simple. No racking needed.
>>27933410
Well you're also not amped up on amphetamines and in the middle of an extended firefight with the LAPD.
Of course, don't be daft.
>>27933256
>>27933256
Yup, all of mine have.
Bolt failed to pick up a round from the mags several times. Mags were new and never had the problem on the same mag twice.
Once it somehow fed a live round almost up and out of the ejection port, holding it out of battery like a stovepipe, that was weird.
Oddly enough, all 3 have a worse track record than my AR, which also has more rounds through it, with fewer cleanings.

Oh yeah. Take a bunch of depressants right before getting into a situation where you will need to be on your feet and ready to react. And then further slow yourself down with tons of armor and bags of cash.
It was all going so well...until they actually had to try to move out of a parking lot.
>>27933315
I now want an AK chambered in other, smaller AK's

Made for pretty good television in all honesty
>>27933546
No doubt about that.
Bank Robberies like that died with the 90s and thanks to delays on live TV you rarely see someone off themselves.

When you get into a gun fight with the police, you've already lost.
Even if the police are incapable of hitting you, you've put yourself in a place you cant get out of.
