We took a .22 caliber AK47 to the local range to see how it shoots.
This is the Kalashnikov model .22lr Made in Germany by GSG (German Sport Guns)

We each shoot differently, and one thing we thought about recently is how we perform a shoulder to shoulder transition with the AR15 (or similar rifle)
One style (Method One) is to move with a shooting grip to the other shoulder, fire if needed, then move to an off hand grip
Method Two has you grab the rifle with off hand, move it and acquire a shooting grip as you shoulder on the other shoulder..
Here's a pic of my Goalni. I duracoated the rifle in 2 solid color's(OD green & Coyote Tan) which helps with the foilage around here. It has a quad rail handguard (by UTG) a Harris Bipod and a MAKO foregrip. The mag's are stock with a slight camo pattern )center is an orlite). Hope you enjoy! ..full

This is the gear we used at the Tucson, Arizona American Confederation of Tactical Shooters (A.C.T.S.) monthly match at Pima Pistol Club. This is a Eagle Industries / SKD Universal chest rig with an S.O.Tech Battle Load Carry System (BLoCS) Small Zippered Medical Pouch and an Army surplus magazine pouch (Desert camo). We shot an AK47 with VTAC sling and an S&W M&P 45 (dark earth). The chest rig held three 30 round AK47 magazines (it can hold 8 max) and two pistol magazines (four pistol mags max). Attached on the shooters left (right in photo) is the S.O. Tech BLoCKS Zippered Medical Pouch with a tourniquet and emergency bandage.
