    Picked up a SAR-1(a WASR-10, modified to accept double stacks) a few months ago, and have just recently been able to get it to the range. Got a thousand rounds of Wolf ammo for it as well. I wish I had known that the range I frequent doesn't allow any Wolf ammo of any kind. I had to use some...
