i've been searching for a Galil for the longest time, and i'm figuring on settling on an AK-47. My gunsmith has always tried to coax me into buying one but, I'm just stubborn. I have never really looked at the AKs he sells, so I'm curious:
1. So far from some of the posts on this forum, I know not to get one made in China, so what brands do I look for, and which do I avoid? Which brand offers the chrome barrel that is supposed to be durable?
2. Is the AK's inaccuracy a myth? Is it really due to the sights? Last year I was able to outshoot some guys with an AK (I was using a Winchester 94). I took a gander at an AK in my gunsmith's shop the following day, and i didn't care much for the sights on the Ak. We were on the 50 yard targets. For every 5-7 shots they would hit the target once (I mean complete misses). I always wondered if it was just the sights?
