To Tom Faller,

I haven't heard of anything other than the AK's and the Ruger Mini-30
being chambered for the 7.62x39. I don't know why, though. But for
hunting guns, why not use a 30-30 rifle or a 30 Herrett Contender in-
stead? The ballistics of these rounds beat the 7.62x39 by a good
margin.

To Philip Munts,

Have you tried roasting the squirrels in an open pit, with a crab-apple
stuffed in it's mouth? ;-)

What kind of holster arrangement do you have for the Mk II with the
aim-point?
