And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

Maybe the fluted barrel wasn't such a good idea. I also wonder if the flutes were cut with a ball end mill or a diamond cutter. Sharp angles are stress risers in pressure vessels and a 50 BMG rifle barrel has to contain 55,000psi.
Vulcan Arms AKA Victor Arms has changed its name more than 20 times since the built a run of junk AK's 20 years ago. The original name was "Hess Arms". They have turned out more junk, and dangerous to shoot firearms than anyone else in history. The old joke at knob creek. "How do you keep your gun from being stolen? Was asked of a redneck who had his AK hanging in the back window of his pickup. That's easy. Says Bubba. I just electro-pencil "Hess Arms" on the side if the gun. I can leave it parked in the Ghetto and nobody will steal it.---Ray
