I only have 3 built AKs and 3 kits. My friends and family were asking too many questions which made me feel uncomfortable sharing my love of AKs with them. So I hid the kits for now so they don't think I'm weird or nothin. Is it natural to be ashamed of having too many AKs or do I have a problem?

You just have to understand there is no such thing as too many AK's.

Look at it this way, if you were, say a train hobby person. You bought all kinds of stuff for your train hobby and invested in really high quality stuff. You got the entire garage dedicated to it. Your eyeing that next locomotive to build.But you already have 3. You have most of the parts, but will have to dedicate a bunch of time to do it.

Would you feel like you had a problem?

AK parts
I've been trying to thin down my collection.
My latest kits with new furniture.

Hi, my name is Jeff and I'm an AKAholic.

Between built rifles, Saigas, the AK pistol, and kits/builds to be, I think I have a baker's dozen.

Looks like you were busy this weekend; I wonder who did the rivets?

Step 6: Count the number of AKs you haven't had time to shoot yet.

We need to go test fire some of those at the secret squirrel spot.

ETA: Faces edited because the shooters are ugly.

Cool shootin' spot! Can I go?

Need 6more steps.

Step 7: Check to see if the pebbles stuck in your car's front tires are outnumbered by demilled AK rivets.

Step 8: Be entirely ready to use a sledgehammer to remove all defects in the action.

The problem with an AK addiction is that there are so many different types. AR's are cool, but when you get into AK's you just have to have every variation. AK47's, AK74's, Krikov's, underfolders, side folders, etc. Then there are the different country variations. Ahhhh! I can't stop.

I've heard of many chocoholics, but I ain't never seen no "chocohol". We got an epidemic, people: people who like chocolate but don't understand word endings. They're probably "over-workaholled."

I've heard of a few AKaholics, but I ain't never seen no "AKahol."

9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would get in the way of getting more guns..

Continue to take personal inventory and when FED has our AK promptly admit it.

That is such a tease Gene. There should be swap meets that have layouts like that.

Don't you think that a lot of the thrill, addiction, is searching, hunting for just the right brake, or just the right furniture, buying the stuff (flats, tools, etc.) and then ordering them from some person in Ohio or somewhere, wondering if you will actually ever get it. Then the UPS guy drives up one day and delivers that beat up package and you find inside all the stuff you looked so hard for?

Like a womens shopping addiction.

Did you start building AK's from your first AK to now, or was the first AK one already built?
