i have sold AKs, MP5s, FNs, G3s, Galils, MACs...you name it. more the semi automatics than full auto versions...and all perfectly legal too. had an american Federal Firearms License for over 25 years and 3 years with a class 3 tax stamp ( fully automatic and other NFA weapons..sawed off shotguns and silencers). with the black market in moscow an ak for $200 US? i do find that hard to believe. even the old milled reciever one would go for more. maybe 200 for a worn 70s era out SKS but a full born rock and roller ak. hmmmmm. i know you guys had a $#!Tload of them and all but still too cheap. in the mountains of pakistan or afganistan you will still pay a hefty sum for one...an ak-74 going much higher.

Nice to know someone of a similar trade. I usually only sell old Soviet stuff, but I've sold a Mi-35 down in Venezuella a few times. Pakistan is an interesting place, I used to buy alot of knives from there.

i've never visited the place. my brother-in-law, an orthopedic surgeon, was there (pakistan) a couple times...on medical training missions during the mid 80s.

You got to go find some of the groups there, they make some good swords. And guns never get old there, as you can find old 30s shotguns around still.

actually that is one part of the world i have positively, absolutely no desire to go ( or use for) and its not because of the terrain. on one of my B-I-L's trips a nurse ( also a volunteer ) in the group was shot to death for putting on her 2 piece bathing suit and laying by the pool. this was at a major name chain hotel in the capitol city. someone got "offended" by her manner of dress and decided to rid society of this blasphemer. the man was caught but not charged with a crime. no thanks....

No, they wouldn't charge him with the crime. It is simply Muslim religion, and no offence intended but most women are warned to clothe themselves.

I would like to make a few more trips to China. I love bread and spices.

During a private "fly-in" fishing excursion in the
Alaskan wilderness, the chartered pilot and fishermen left a cooler and bait in the plane. And a bear smelled it. This is what he did to the plane.

The pilot used his radio and had another pilot bring him 2 new tires, 3 cases of duct tape, and a supply of sheet plastic. He patched the plane together and FLEW IT HOME!
Duct Tape? Never Leave Home Without It
