Anyway here is a protip.If you have never fired an AK before do not hold the thing by the magazine while firing chances are that you did not seat the magazine well and it will pull up a round and send the magazine and your hand flying downwards with pretty good force.Seen a few people do this(not with my property) which is why for a layman I choose to load an AK myself and tell the person not to hold it by the magazine lest they wish to discover the capital of Thailand.I think much of that has to do with cheapo AK clones and cheapo magazines though by design holding an AK by the magazine while firing should not be a problem so it is either a crap gun or a crap magazine in most cases or a very timid loader.

If the magazine is properly seated in the well it should not come undone. Have you seen the mag release on that thing? It's a huge steel tab with a fat spring behind it. You know when she cracks home that she's locked in. The AK is like a Biker chick, you gotta slap her around a little to get her to perform.

The M16 on the other hand is like a snooty redheaded prom queen, you look at her funny and she'll jam up on you and leave you hangin, but if you care for her she'll do the job cleaner and better than the biker chick.
