I won't be a customer unless the Russian AK shoots much better than the Romanian WASR I used to own. Even with the silencer it was too noisy to use without ear plugs. The trigger slap was annoying, the front sight needed a special tool (or a hammer) to adjust for windage and the accuracy was sub-par.
I tried to sell it for $600 (including the silencer) for over a year but no one wanted it after a test fire revealing it was still rather loud. I mentioned my difficultly selling it a while after Sandy Hook and guy at the range snapped it up for the $600 I wanted, and without the silencer. He didn't want to pay the $200 transfer tax and was afraid of the ATF. The silencer is now a useless paperweight as it was made to fit only on that rifle with 9/16-14 threads.

Stupid typo. Should be made, not mad. Mod help please?

Sanctions imposed last summer by the Obama administration against the gun’s Russian manufacturer had effectively kept new AK-47s from reaching American buyers. While AK-47 parts and knock-off versions of the famed weapon have been manufactured available in the U.S. for some time, this is the first time the Russian weapon will be made entirely in the U.S. by the Kalashinkov firm. During Soviet times, the original plant in Izhevsk, two hours’ flight time east from Moscow, churned out 600,000 rifles a year for the military. Now, it’s down to a fraction of that, which made the U.S. deal a critical addition to the firm’s sales. |
