She's going to kill me for this.... But I have to give it to her. My wife hates guns (Why she married me I still don't know). She came out to a photoshoot yesterday to support me and brought a book to read and she got asked to be a model shooting, thankfully she said yes and had an ok time. She didn't try to kill me on the ride home, so I guess it was bearable. Haha. She's shot with me at a range 4 times in the 6.5 years we have been married. So this was a big stepping stone. Plus she HATES AKs. Made for quite the experience.

She doesn't look too unhappy about it. I think she likes her new AK. :)


Yep. You better be looking for a second one. You've lost this one. lol

Don't misunderstand me, I'm not calling you out or anything, but I'm having a very difficult time accepting she's not much of a shooter.
This may also come off as a sexist comment as well, but typically, no lady is gonna grab an automatic rifle and have that much control. Muzzle discipline, trigger finger, leaning into it, she's really got it under control. I know it may not recoil like a BAR but I have seen multitudes of grown men at Knob Creek with much less control than she exhibits.
She's quite capable and/or you are a helluva instructor.

She might hate guns, but she has lived with me for 7 years now. She's pretty used to stuff like this all over, me shooting and listening to me instruct people. I leave guns all over the house, and I have taught her proper control and safety if she needs to move one. She's pretty darn good at never touching that trigger until she's ready to fire. Never actually seen her screw that up moving a gun around the house so its not in her way anymore. She got a few pointers before she shot that with a Ruger 10/22, then jumped on this with little to no instruction besides me telling her it was full auto. I'm very proud of her, considering her hate for this stuff. She's smiling and laughing for the camera, and she thinks it's funny I put her in these situations were she gets stuck doing stuff she doesn't care to do.

Yeah, but dang man, that 249 barks! It's rough on the uninitiated.
I know I'd probably flinch pretty bad....or be talking you into putting a can on it. Edited by Caster

Not yet. Still have yet to burn one out on Mikes or my M249 thankfully. It'll happen sooner rather than later. Have a lot of people baby the triggers and do 1 or 2 round bursts. They will unfortunately wear down quick. I think my M249 only has about…. 5,000(ish) rounds through it now, probably more knowing me, ha. Only had it out a handful of times. Maybe 5. Good to know I have spare parts though :)

Hell yeah man. If you ever bring it out again let me know. Been too long since I fired one. Shot 5K from a 240B for a MG Ldrs Course to burn ammo - but holding a 249 is much sexier than shooting a 240 on a T&E

Ill let you know if I run into more parts. Youd be suprised what we've pulled out of old comms conexes brother.
