    Default Is it possible to pick an AK without bleeding?

    Just got my first AK last week and every time I pick it up to play with I either get cut or get a blood blister. WTF. Have several ARs and hardly ever have this issue. All that stamped metal really sucks.

    We have 4 of various flavors and do not think that the wife or I have ever been bit by one in the 15 years we have been playing with them.

    I have never had an issue with my AK chewing on me......interesting.
    My determination to not strike the first blow, but also to not stand mute and allow myself, and all that I believe in and stand for, to be trampled by men who would deprive me of my God-given, or natural right to suit my own end.

    Default never meant to

    be mollycoddled, even putting the dust cover back on isn't a precision maneuver, it's brute force. My AK's have never hurt me, but I don't handle or shoot them like they're a custom bolt action rifle.

    I've heard that switching to a maxi-pad might help though....

    Are you trying to say that this man has the hands of a woman? Not nice!
