Yup. It's embarassing as hell, but it's the only fuckup I've ever had with a firearm

I have this friend who's a wannabe Marine/Blackwater contractor who claimed that the AK-47 would be the ideal weapon because you can use ANY caliber bullet in it.

...He also claims that the reason for sawing the barrel of shotguns down is so that it will have more killing power and spread.

I guess he was confusing the AK with the AR-15 because the AR-15 can use pretty much any caliber because if there isn't a special upper made for the AR-15, someone out there is making it right now. Just last week, I read about a new upper so it can fire a .50 BMG in bolt action.

nope, think stupider. He actually claims that you can feed any caliber bullet into the same AK-47 w/o modifications.

Do the world a favor and remove him from the gene pool. Dare him to prove his point with a .50 BMG.

Ive met so many people who claim a military ak47 can use .223 ammo. Now i saw a test of this, the round fired, but didnt hit the target, due to bore difference, it overexpanded in chamber, got stuck, and had to be field stripped to remove. this shows that even if it can fire the round it is not acombat advantage at all.
