How the AN-94 works

Yes, comrade. We will put most of a rifle action inside of another action so we can shoot two bullets before it recoils.

Love the wheel and cable drive. No, no, that's not going to be fussy. Seems like the whole thing might be a little ammo sensitive.

Pretty much. Pick little bullets, figure out how to use more of them at once.Jered wrote:A solution in search of a problem.
