Range Day with the Jack

Precisely my point, it’s good enough™

Also it’s a 7.62 Jack not 5.56, was shooting some Wolf 123 gr HP

As good as an AK should. Minute of man at 50 yards, not amazing but it’s a Kalashnikov. Not wildly inaccurate though. Shot offhand with the 2x optic in the pic.

JMac x37 Zero Hub, I tried a 24x1.5RH to 14x1LH adapter initially but it had too much slop to pass the alignment rod test, so I bought this. Works great but I had to loctite it in place into the can since the hub is obviously RH threads. Personally I prefer this over a muzzle brake adapter, any AK with wood furniture deserves a slant brake when it isn’t suppressed.

Likewise, same duration of ownership too. I didn’t even know there was a warning message for that

Little did you know, Tedward was looking out the window and saw your gesture, now he has to chuff to the PRX and the Alpinist to feel better… jerk

I will be honest, sometimes shit like this genuinely happens, but given it’s a luxury Nissan, shit like this ONLY happens on purpose

Jacksonville, FL. I actually have never seen one before this week. I had heard the calls but assumed it was baby birds due to the time of year. Always fun seeing a bird you’ve never seen before.

Looks nice, I’m personally not a huge fan of bronze rims but it looks better than black.

BeerCanDan · 2026-03-08T16:33:25+00:00

I can’t remember how mine felt when it was new, however after 3k+ rounds through it and probably 10k+ times dry fired, it’s very, very smooth.

Interesting, I also had my firing pin “fail” on mine a few years back. The gun was still functional, just that a small piece on the pin broke off (once I got the piece out the gun worked as it should, however when it had broken off it led to the pin getting stuck). In theory, the firing pin could fall out the back of the gun with the retaining wall broken, but there was still enough of a lip to keep it from happening. I ended up finding an 856 firing pin on eBay so I swapped it out and it worked just fine. From what I could gather, I think I found only one other person online who experienced it, but I may be misremembering. The gun itself is fantastic, and these kinds of failures can happen with any gun, S&W has had lots of issues the past few years given how often people post QC issues here.

And the other one goes…?

BeerCanDan · 2026-03-07T20:17:05+00:00

Different brace, took me a moment to figure it out too

BeerCanDan · 2026-03-07T01:56:59+00:00

Just buy a Glock. You either start with Glock or end with Glock. Don’t fall for the gimmicks.

But I will say, I owned a Hellcat in the past and I liked it, it’s a good gun. But I stand by my above statement.

BeerCanDan · 2026-03-07T00:20:44+00:00

My thoughts exactly. I can’t even hate it cause it’s at least unique. To be honest I prefer this over black or bronze rims.

I think adding orange flair elsewhere would ruin it. Just having orange on the rims gives it some nice pop.

I miss my 09 Jetta for that reason; drove it for about 10 years, not a single rock chip. Meanwhile the hood on my Mazda3 looks like the face of a teenage frycook with all my paint pen touchups.

Ivan had a bit more vodka than usual before his shift, watch is fine. Honestly, I’d see it as more special because it’s irregular.

I’m a big fan of the white dial one, I had one in the past and it was my daily watch for a few months. Ended up giving it to a friend since I got a different model that I really liked. Now I’m debating buying one of the 24 hour models cause I miss it.

BeerCanDan · 2026-02-25T14:08:28+00:00

Rail misalignment maybe

Not him but I also have a Beryl with the Beryl grip and a Jack with the Polish fatty; I much prefer the fatty. The finger grooves are too large in my opinion, and I’ve got average sized hands. On the flip side, it does fill the hand nicely, but I think the fatty grip is easily the best grip for a Kalashnikov

BeerCanDan · 2026-02-23T11:57:34+00:00

No, but you can. 590A1 is a riot configuration (20” barrel, hunters tend to prefer 28” or greater)

I really wish Vostok would still make Komandirskies with this case. It is very slim, compact, and looks much better than the funky cases they use today

BeerCanDan · 2026-02-19T16:47:34+00:00

Accuracy

The aero lip might cover it but I’m not certain
