    I had a pretty good day writing. I wrote 2 chapters on the current main WIP, a portal fantasy, finished a fanfic story, and wrote another chapter on a side project.

    My writer's block just might be over.

    Did you have to use your AK?

    Sorry... had to ask. ;)

    I never use AKs. I'm strictly American in my weapons choices. M4 all the way, baby.

    Nice job! I felt the same way yesterday smashing through a few blocks that had been holding me back.

    The M4 is a piece of garbage. I’d rather have an AK any day of the week.

    Every single time I’d be checking in sidearms in the armory and giving them a thorough breakdown and cleaning there would be at least one - usually two or three - where I’d have to replace at least one of the gaskets in the floating bolt assembly to fix it. That’s impressive considering we don’t ever tough the inside of the bolt during a field strip on the M4.

    Compare and contrast the AK, which will still fire after being run over by a car, buried in a pile of sand, dropped in a mud pit, then frozen in a block of ice and thawed out. The M4, on the other hand, will misfire if you get a bit of dust or sand in the ejection port simply by leaving the cover open all day in the field.

    They also do fire a nice solid round, which isn't hard to get ahold of. Next best thing to a shotgun during the apocalypse.

    Umm. I used to do a lot of post-apocalyptic/cyberpunk gaming. At least, that was how I explained all the books on military hardware I had. People get nervous when you describe ABC's.

    I love a sawed off shotgun (double barrel or pump) in a zombie apoc book.

    Still awaiting my glorious fusion of a bow-and-arrow and a Molotov Cocktail, though.

    Dropping the ammo would be....bad.

    The 5.56 is a “better” round in terms of damaging something, but it’s harder to come by and doesn’t have a really popular civilian equivalent. The civilian equivalent is the .223 and there’s really only one gun that takes that caliber - the AR15. Compared to the 7.62, which is essentially a .308 LR and is used worldwide by practically every armed force and is the preferred caliber for hunters around the world, the 5.56/.223 loses handily.

    so would that be a flameing bow that you throw or a bow that shoots molitov coctail arrows? because either one of those seems impractical yet cool
