On a side note... and for the record, I don't "hate" AK rifles or 1911 pistols. I own and shoot both... if I hated them I would not own them... I just think there are better options.

Once again, cheaper, unproven things failed in class. I mentioned to LS I was interested to see how his poly lower would hold up... It was a calculated statement which confirmed my suspicions. Poly lowers (AR) have a track record for problems.
