but I bought a Bulgy AKS74U kit

in 2008

for $799

sheeeeit

built my baby for a total cost of $1200

my little bitch

not too bad, ballistics of it would be questionable though IMO

In 2011 I bought an AK for like $550

Not sure what that little 52gr 5.45 will do at what is it, 2200-2400fps?

5.45 from 8in barrel is accurate af out to 300 yards

sold it for like $600 a few months later

performs excellent

i had my questions as well

Right before they skyrockrted up to like 1500

LOL what type of AK?

not doubting the accuracy I just wonder how it'll tumble and all that since those rounds usually do better close to 3000fps

I don't even remember anymore dude

(by those rounds I mean light fast ones such as .223 and those like it)

I was.more interested in loose women and booze at the time

hahaha that will burn some $$$

@James#0143 tru...optimally the best AK imo is the Arsenal with the 12in barrel

its AK74 but chopped a bit. cant recall nomenclature off hand

105 I think

90 degree gas block, right?

ahhh

AK 104

those are usually made in 5.45 as I recall, don't really trust its availability tbh, not sure how 7.62 soviet would do out of a 12" barrel

already a slow bullet as is

yeah it is only 5.45

plus quality 5.45 mags are a bitch to find at a reasonable price point (IE under $35)

thats my only issue...although I love the round

i prefer 7.62x39

yeah, I theoretically like it but availability + mag prices make it seem less attractive

it's okay if you buy in bulk but you can't go to a local gun store and pick some up

I finally settled on my current

1977 Romanian G matching parts

with polish beryl stock

shit, nice

6 tula mags

and Eagle Industries Rhodesian Recon chest rig
