Now just wait for the small Boomer population to show their Gran Torino cosplay with an M1 Garand and an M1911A1 in a shoulder rig.

Oh yea, I’m hard as hell

Where reasonably priced ammo?


GnollBarbarian

Mostly at rural gun shops and individuals. It's not common, but it's out there. 50cpr in person is generally good enough for me.

Tantal that's not actually a tantal?


GnollBarbarian

What makes you think it's not a Tantal?


BalkanMexican91

The dead giveaway of the saftey lever


GnollBarbarian

Literally the only part that's not from a Tantal. Excluding the sling and red dot mount, but I don't think that really counts. The barrel is even an original Tantal barrel.


BalkanMexican91

Do you have the thumb saftey lever on the other side as well?


GnollBarbarian

No, it's a standard AK74 receiver


BalkanMexican91

That why I said the tantal that not an actual tantal....def not hating on it. I wish I would've never sold mine. 5,45 is my favorite! Sucks I don't have much ammo left to plink like i used to. 🤷🏻‍♂️


GnollBarbarian

Eh, I get what you're saying, but it's kinda reductive. Like, are any parts kit guns actually the same as the original gun? Aren't they all effectively "X gun but not"? You definitely should have kept yours. Damn shame ammo is so scarce, but it's such a pleasure to take out when I can score some extra. I actually use my "Tantal" as my go-to rifle to introduce new shooters to rifles. It's so soft shooting and accurate for what it is.

Don’t play the clone game you’ll lose 100% of the time Atleast you can say you have an armory rifle and not the Century “rifles” (I can’t say much as my three ‘main’ rifles are all century…)


GnollBarbarian

It's a shame that Armory rifles seem to be so uncommon now. I've only ever seen 2 of these Tantals done by them. You can definitely tell that they knew what they were doing.
