Thanks again Len!LenS said:Jon,
The following URL has the info that describes the differences between models (it is indeed confusing):

You just have to make Chief to solve that problem, right?
When I post a technical answer, I try to go beyond the question asked (for the benefit of lurkers/others who also read the thread). Many may not know that Gen'l Mikhail Kalashnikov's AK-47 was never built as a semi-auto. That it was modified for US commercial consumption and BATFE regs.
BTW, there was a couple of History Channel broadcasts about the AK-47 including interviews with the General. Great info!
Brother Len, I have NO intention of being chief, EVER!
Don't get me wrong, there are lots of good chiefs. They are the one that haven't forgotten where they came from, they have a rare commodity, common sense. Others? Well I guess those are the ones that were a**h***s when they were in the rank and file and just continue with that attitude all the way up. Or, they got that little taste of power that goes to their head, hence the clowns that love to wear 4 stars on their collars.FPrice said:Just one comment. We've had a few good chiefs here in my town but other places also need chiefs with common sense and the interests of the people at heart.
I'd ask you to re-consider your plans.

Have fired it once or twice and it shoots well but it does have a case of trigger slap. I plan on getting a new trigger group and trying to change it out. They can be fun guns.
