DRY-FIRING AK wanted
For various work purposes, I've spent large chunks of the past year around functioning AKs. The only thing I know about them is how to turn the safety catch/fire lever onto 'non-random-accidental-death', something that has saved a number of cameramen's lives so far, in a trigger-happy,bumpy SUV, hashish-infused environment.
Essentially, I think my lifespan might be slightly expanded by the ability to a) strip b) clean c) fire an AKM in a difficult, sandy/muddy environment. I wouldn't post this if it hasn't have become an issue already. (i very quickly learned how to use an FN on semi-auto for pant-wettingly scary defensive suppressive fire, but that's another story).
Wot i want is: a deact, dry-firing AK at a reasonable price. Not to current welded specs, but earlier ah-so-that's-how-it-works specs, so I can clean, strip, oil and reassemble to a degree I'd feel comfortable with for future assignments in unstable durka-durka countries. I'd be happy negotiating down from <£500.
I don't yet have a licence .

Hey,
Apart from being at the opposite end of many spectra, genuinely glad to see you're OK.
Quite jealous about the range- our lives are sorely circumscribed here in the UK. I took part in a Libyan 2-way range, but both sides are laughably appalling shots- if you're ever about in London I'd be proud to stand you a pint or two, on the basis that your war stories are better than mine

Not really relevant, but why not?
Libyan small arms training:
If you put the sights to 600, you can shoot much further.
Yeah, why not?
Gadhafi's side put special sights on their AKs, so they can shoot to 5km.
Yeah, of course.
If you hear bullets, you won't get shot
Because that's how it works.
If you write the 99 names of Allah on your AK, you'll never miss, or get shot.
Yeah, they taught me that in the TA.
Your dead brother's AK will never miss; he aims it.
Weirdly, this always seemed to be true. Genuinely honestly.
If you kill a sniper with a sniper rifle, his will always work; kill him with an AK or grenade & it will never work, and must be destroyed because it's cursed and will backfire.
Unproven. Also, not believed in Misrata.
Blacks can only shoot straight at long distances.
