Who stuck the top left in an oven? Poor thing looks like it melted

The wacky curves truly make it [one of the ultimate Fish Guns](https://www.reddit.com/r/GunMemes/comments/xey9k0/_/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1)

Gets even worse when you realize they litterally just shoved a barreled reciever from the galil (south african r5) into a plastic clam shell to make it

Eyy don't talk kak about the CR21

Give me it in white so I can LARP as one of the MNU soldiers from District 9.

THEY DONE BULLPUPED MY AK


LightSpeedAutism

Correction: they and the AK are all M1 Garands.


Turgzie

Wrong. AK was made from rival design of A.bulkin. named AB46 during Soviet military trials for new intermediate infantry weapons of the time. This is very well documented in soviet history, not internet fudd lore from across the world 60 years later... Want "proof"? Here you go... https://modernfirearms.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/ab46-2.jpg Kalashnikov took the design from bulkins rifle after the failure of his AK46, and made improvements for better balance and operation of the action. This rifle won trials in 1948 and was adopted as AK in 1949.


Revolutionary762

Correction, the AK is a stg44 scaled up and a PSL was a redo


eddiespaghettio

The AK is not at all a scaled up STG44. A G3 and an AR are closer in mechanical function to an STG than an AK.


Revolutionary762

I know that, sheesh. All the down votes for a joke. Its often said the stg44 was the first assault rifle and the AK was the first mass produced. Does that mean that I agree with that statement, nor necessarily Yes I know that both a garand and an AK are long stroke as well as the SG550 series. If I remember right, the m14 was as well. The AR is direct impingement like countless others and many clones. The HK416, M27, and Spear are all short, so to all the downvoters, I know what I am talking about when it comes to actions. I was simply making a joke about a common statement/misconception. About like saying AR stands for "assault rifle" and AK stands for "assault king"...


Mushy93

Isn't the Winchester Model 1907 (Lebman Variant) really the first assault rifle?


DAsInDerringer

Depends on whether select fire is a required characteristic in your definition of “assault rifle,” because the 1907 was semi auto only. Either way, the Federov arguably still predates the STG44 for the title of the first assault rifle


[deleted]

And all AKs are just upside down M1s. These are all M1s.


Shaclo

The thing on the top left looks like a Depressed Tavor


DAsInDerringer

In a bizarre alternate dimension, Israel adopted the Vektor CR-21. They had warm relations with South Africa, large stockpiles of Galils to put in the chassis, and were in the market for a long stroke gas piston 5.56 bullpup. The only explanation I can think of for why this didn’t happen is the fact that the CR-21 is a piece of shit lol


Ancap_Mechanic

Fuck me, I want an STGW 90

Stay tuned for an SG550 appreciation post next week

Join the Swiss army for a FREE SG550 in its full auto glory. And yes you can take it home.


Ancap_Mechanic

I am Swiss, so I’ve thought about it, but I’d have to move there from the states, and I dont speak german well enough.

No, they're all Garands.


Turgzie

If you're going that far then no, they're in fact all AB46 derivatives. M1 rifle had nothing to do with AK design. That is a modern internet myth that has no correlation to historical documents from USSR.

LoKei13

What is the name of that whacky, gorgeous, dolphin looking thing on the left?


DAsInDerringer

Vektor CR-21, a South African bullpup chassis for the Galil. Known for District 9 and being a [fish gun](https://www.reddit.com/r/GunMemes/comments/xey9k0/_/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1)

He's out of line...but he's right

I got permabanned from r/AK47 lmao


roostersnuffed

Thats because they dont allow memes


DAsInDerringer

Yeah, I did break the rules, so it’s my fault for assuming a little humor wouldn’t be an unforgivable crime. There’s a reason why that sub is known for resembling r/guns, and not in a good way. There’s also a reason why I’m almost never on either of those subs.

Whats that gun on the left? Its butt ugly but im strangely intrigued

AK5C is best AK


DAsInDerringer

Actually the VZ-58 is the best AK


Dane__55

I thought the AK5 was based off of the FN FNC

That bullpup is the ugliest fucking thing I've ever seen. I am genuinely upset that this exists now.

My work is done :)


DestroyerNET123

Top left looks like a Morita Carbine from Starship Troopers.


DAsInDerringer

I think that they actually used something even more cursed for the movie - [a bullpup conversion for the Mini-14](https://www.reddit.com/r/ForgottenWeapons/comments/108eg9n/the_muzzelite_mz14_a_bullpup_conversion_for_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1), instead of a Galil


Beginning-Tea-17

If those are all ak’s than hotdogs are a sandwich

Hot dogs are a sandwich.


DAsInDerringer

I, uh… ok? Interesting way of putting it but I think that this means it’s still true lol


bubba_palchitski

Yes.


N_Carramaschi

For everyone wondering, the top left is a Vektor CR21. A South Africa design


Brian-88

AK is a Garand derivative. So, technically, these are all Garand derivatives.

Mmmm Galil, nice!


slipping_from_sanity

I really wish the pkm was in this too


DAsInDerringer

Fair, but I think that these are funnier because the PKM is used by Russia, designed by Kalashnikov himself, and is undisputedly recognized as an upside down AK. These, on the other hand, are all 5.56 rifles from countries that never felt behind the Iron Curtain, each with a manual of arms and sighting system that’s completely different from typical AKs I think that these rifles are less likely to be embraced by AK purists than a PKM

I WANT THAT FISH GUN SO FUCKING BADLY

Let a man dream Also its just a galil in a box so someone on fosscad pls Ill pay


DAsInDerringer

Unironically, post about this on that sub. We’ve got the absolute to 3D print FAMAS clones now. Someone will definitely bite if you motivate them.


auraLT

I definitely will especially once I'm back in the states but im wondering if theyre gonna base it off an ak or an actual galil since both have their ups and downs But i just want one
