Claytons Guns Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 As far as i know there a a few different makers of the AK47 style .22 rifles, A quick search turned up this page which should give you a start, Theres different model numbers there for you to look into. AK47 Page Hope this is of some help Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claytons Guns Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 I believe that Decade firearms sell the Armscor MAK22 ( I seem to remember seeing them on there stand at a trade show i went to last year ), which is just what your after, I looked on there site and they do sell it but the link to the piccy is down ( Typical ).

il cacciatore Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 To be honest, your better just getting a .223 Saiga M3. Leave the .22lr because itll be a disappointment. I havent even seen either let alone used one, so dont know how valueable my opinion is to you but at least the Saiga is made by Izhmash and for all intensive purpose is as real AK except in straight pull.

rarms Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Except that the Saiga can only be used at fullbore ranges and is for all intense and purposes a bolt action. My .22lr AK I can use at my local club whenever I want and is semi-auto As per P.M. the Armscor ones look quite cheap, I would go for the Armi-Jaeger AP80, the only thing which IMHO lets the AP80 down is the fact that the Mag is not sleeved and looks like a .22lr mag. I am working on that though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jonrms Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Thank you everyone... I am not going to bisley.. sadly... but will hope to meet up some time and see the rifle...

I am not in a rush but will keep my eyes posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jonrms Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 I know I seen it...

I have looked around and also like the m16 that are made.... hmmmmm would love them both but neither will be any fun apart from the gun club.. lol! dont want to be seen taking out bunny with a AK or a m16... do I??:good:?

il cacciatore Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Why not? Thats what I say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jonrms Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 LOL true... I guess you could stalk bunnys legally.. however I would be concerned with the odd person/ bird watcher saying.. omg... I just saw a guy with a fully automatic rifle shooting at rabbits.... would be scary when armed police arrived but would be kinda funny to say.. nope its on my FAC and its only a semi auto .22lr.. but I dont think I will be doing that..... I would only shoot it at the club... scare the older members...lol! but I bet they seen it all anyway.... hmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulcha Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 What? I never knew they made these! Ar they any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
william Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 On the same subject has any one known of a heckler and koch mp5 in .22, probably would scare the shxt out of any one who saw you bunny shooting but it would be interesting if any one new of a maker.

I really really want one!!! which is why I am paying over the odds I know.. but I have to get rid of a rifle before I can swop.. hence why the bruno is in there. anyone... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
