What do I like so much about the “Dashprod” Rifle? Well, that’s easy. I love the raw reliability of the AK-47 platform in the fast shooting 5.56mm round. Basically, it is a short-barreled AK-47 in 5.56mm! Mine has been modernised with an aluminium Picatinny rail, a Vortex Venom red dot sight, an O-light Valkyrie weapon-mounted…
When I first got this Dashprod from Dave Sheer Guns, it was a bent up and scratched (ab)used rifle, nothing to write home about. But with a little TLC, I knocked the skew sights back into place, replaced the old plastic wobbly handguard with a custom fitted aluminium picattiny rail. I also gave it a…
A “Dashprod” rifle imported by Dave Sheer Guns. This one has a custom picatinny rail installed because the stock plastic handguard was loose and would hold zero with a red dot.

The rifle here is a Howa 1500 .308 Winchester in an Oryx Chassis with a Vortex PST Gen 2, 5-25 x 50 rile scope. #oryxchassis #howa1500 #howarifles #vortexoptics #precisionrifle #longrangeshooting…
It’s not unheard of that firearm license applications can take over a year to be approved. How true is that? I took the time to search online for as many firearm application stories as I could. Then I built a database of 200 of the most recent firearm license approvals. Using that information, I hope…
A photo of my DM4 308 (Armalite AR-10) rifle that I bought from Dave Sheer Guns. Attached is a Vortex PST Gen 1 2.5 – 10 x 44 rifle scope, mounted to a 20MOA Picatinny riser. It also has a 45 degree offset Vortex Venom red dot sight for close quarters. With a good load,…
