Gee, tell us how you really feel about the AK-47. Rolleyes

You could have better splits with a controllable low cyclic rate, which is why I've been interested in it. It could make target-to-target transitions very interesting once a shooter learns the cadence of the operating system. With a low cyclic rate, you wouldn't need a burst mechanism, because the trigger is the throttle and burst control.

I was being nice to the AK. I could hash over my experiences with countless variants of it over the past 2 decades shot in high volume.
