    7.62x39 v. 7.62x51 short range wounding differences

    Since 7.62x51 wasn't adopted until after WWII, cavalry and horses weren't the issue. Light armored vehicles might be Sea Biscuit's counterpart.

    steel targets

    25yards for pistol or shotgun (not slug). Hardened steel plate should be slightly angled to deflect bullets into the ground instead of back to you. Dimpled surfaces mean you don't have a consistent angle of deflection of those rounds like a smooth surface provides. A dimple may deflect your...

    ammo interchangeability

    Wellll, he's an idiot. 9mm KURTZ is .380 and while that short 9mm may go down the barrel the ammunition probably won't load and firearms function will be impacted (extraction and ejection and case splitting come to mind along with not loading from the magazine).

    Opinions on the perfect nightstand handgun.

    There can't be a "best" home defense handgun, only the best for the individual. THAT needs to be the most reliable gun you are most proficient under stress with. And since most people don't train under stress, movement, or differing light conditions it could be something different than what...

    Why Do You Carry A Gun?

    Clearly an ignorant statement not supported by the FBI UCR records on deaths by being beaten to death.

    And this is a good time to let this one close instead of continuing the back and forth.

    Added another AK to the collection.

    You could SBR it and put a "Krink" folding stock on it if you wanted to have it to look more krink-like.
