I'm being nice ,I was just thinking how cool it would have been when I was 16 or 17 to have an AK!I bought a Universal 30 Carbine when I was 17.

008,

You have a good dad!  Ain't nothing like your first gun - and getting it from Dad is extra good.  

What does mom think?  Let her know to pick up some ammo for your stocking stuffer (as the full stocking stretches on the nail).

I feel old...24 or so when I got the first one (MAK 90). Shot a six-point buck with it two weeks ago . Ole Russian hollowpoints did the trick. Best "brush" gun I've had.

I guess I was around 22 when I got my first AK.I had one hell of a time trying to ride a Dinosaur without dropping my AK!

19 and it was my mak 90, almost 10 years ago and I still have it, although she has gone through some changes over the years, I would have to say still my favorite gun.

008,

   Sounds cool. Do you have anywhere to shoot it with your dad? If so let me know and I will bring over my Romanian as well. I guarantee your dad will want one after he plays with yours!

To answer your question I am 20. I will be 21 on the 18th of next month. And I am a police cadet currently. I am hoping that when I get hired in a few months that the department will let me carry it in the trunk of my patrol car. Although it doesn't sound promising in the regard since this one guy who is the SWAT Commander in another department told me most departments and especially tactical units won't allow anything more than a .223 Rem. because of the high penetration factor. I could have got the Romanian one there that looked just as nice as the one I am gettng that was chambered in .223 Rem. but I wanted to go for the real deal and get the more powerful 7.62x39mm. And that is not the reason why I got it anyway. Most likely I will have a department issued M16 in the trunk for North Hollywood Bank Robbery (which we kow mde it hard on gun owners like ushe And this is probly my first time on this exact form but from time to time I post on other forms like the Beretta and AR-15 forms. Nice talkingto you all.his

Welcome To The Dark Side 008! Most Depts frown heavily on carrying an AK,more out of asthetics than caliber.I was told that it just did'nt sit well with Joe Citizen to see Officers armed with AKs,the weapon they associate with Communist Oppression of the People!

Congrats!
If you are near New Philly at all (NE OH) you will love the plate shoots that resume in the spring after a winter's practice with old bowling pins.

Awesome, I love my Romanian. It's not as polished or tight as my Vepr or Vector, but it works like a champ.
