The Hakim is an Egyptian license-built copy of the Swedish AG-42 Ljungman (you can find more info on the Hakim and other Egyptian rifles here), chambered in the standard 8&#215;57 Mauser cartridge. The Hakim has a 10-round detachable magazine, but was meant to be reloaded using stripper clips (and it has a pretty neat system for doing so). It&#8217;s a fairly long and hefty rifle (some might use the word &#8220;oar&#8221;), but I found it pretty nice to shoot. The match this month was all about 12-round strings of fire, so I did a lot of loading 7 rounds in the mag and then reloading with a 5-round clip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/www.forgottenweapons.com More info on the Hakim: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=a1yKY6u_YQg This past weekend was another 2-Gun Action Challenge Match, and this time I decided to shoot my Hakim in it.
