Hi all,
Just thought I'd say hello, I have recently joined Marple Rifle and Pistol club on a probationary membership. It is a fullbore club and everyone has been really friendly and helpful, last week I shot 50 rounds of .22lr with a club gun and really enjoyed it.
Over the next few months I plan on applying for my FAC so will probably have some questions further down the line.
My interests are mainly in the AR and AK platforms as I really like the look and feel of the new age rifles.
Many Thanks
Pete

Hello and welcome Tovarisch.......if you have any AK-related questions I'll see if I can help, although I have not heard of one referred to as "new age" before!

Apologies I was referring to the AR's when I said new age although I believe they originate from the 70's.snayperskaya wrote:Hello and welcome Tovarisch.......if you have any AK-related questions I'll see if I can help, although I have not heard of one referred to as "new age" before!

Welcome Pete.
Our resident AR expert, Dromia, will be along shortly.
The AR-15 was developed in the late 50s, but I'm sure he would have told you that.
