i didnt mean u wanted to start a war, just that there isnt much use for them, i mean no competions for AKs and u cant hunt or shoot it at most places. But i bet its a blast to shoot. what state do u live in?

I live in Va, here is legal to shoot and legal to hunt with. Its not the automatic version either, its semi-auto...You can get a legal TAC trigger, however, that makes it pretty much auto. But that wastes a ton of ammo!

ooo, tahts sweet. I just meant that an auto wouldnt be effective with hunting b/c it would be so loud and scare everything away

Yeah i completely agree, however allot of guys around here use SKS's to hunt deer and other small animals since the round is near the size of a .223 which is great for hunting.
