Chinese Smooth Back AK Magazines

By Matt on October 10, 2013 in Guns

While I generally prefer polymer magazines like the Bulgarian Circle 10 and US Palm AK30 for my AK-47s, I still keep a stash of metal mags on hand. Most of my metal magazines are of the Chinese Smooth Back (no rib) variety because I greatly prefer the handling characteristics of these mags. There is no sharp rib on the back to tear your hands over a long day at the range.

These magazines can be hard to find so I like to point them out when I see them. SG Ammo has several of them in stock at a great price.

By Matt on August 20, 2013 in Guns

Rifle Dynamics can turn your AK into a full custom work of art given a bit of time and a fair amount of money. For those who don’t want to spare the time or the coin for them to work their magic, there is the Rifle Dynamics Bolt On Upgrade Package.

Rifle Dynamics has put together a kit that consists of some of their most popular upgrades that don’t require a gunsmith’s touch. The kit includes a Rifle Dynamics AK M4 Stock Adapter, B5 Systems Bravo SOPMOD stock, a mil-spec receiver extension (buffer tube), castle nut, end plate, US PALM AK Battle Grip, and an Ultimak M1-B.

The price is very, very competitive for everything that you get. If I was starting from scratch on a new AK, I would be all over this. Check out the Rifle Dynamics “Bolt On” Upgrade Package.

Damage Industries AK-47 Modular Forearm Assembly MkIII

By Matt on August 7, 2013 in Guns

This is something of a golden age for AK-47 shooters. There are so many great accessories on the market that can really improve the functionality of the venerable AK. One of the newest such accessories is the Damage Industries AK-47 Modular Forearm Assembly MkIII.

The AK-47 Modular Forearm Assembly MkIII is a new and improved version of Damage Industries’ previous railed forearms. This new version has top and bottom rails with slick sides and modular rail sections that can be attached in a number of locations including high and forward on the side of the upper hand guard. That can be an ideal location for a weapon mounted light.

It comes with 2 rails sections and mounting hardware. One of the rail sections includes a QD sling swivel socket so you won’t have to purchase a separate sling mount.

The AK-47 Modular Forearm Assembly MkIII is machined from aluminum and hard anodized in the USA. It adds considerable functionality but only 4-6 ounces to the total weight of your AK. Check it out at Damage Industries.

Echo Nine Three V4-QD Now Available

By Matt on July 5, 2013 in Guns

When I showed the prototypes of the V4-QD sling mount from Echo Nine Three, several of the under folder AK owners out there blew up my inbox asking when it would be available. I have good news… It’s available!

I haven’t put hands on one of these yet but I wouldn’t be surprised if it turns out to the best rear sling mount available for AKs with under folding stocks. It gives the shooter a centrally placed QD sling swivel socket in a stationary location that should stay out of the way of the stock fairly well.

Check out the V4-QD on Echo93.com.

Strike Industries AK TRAX Hand Guard Rail System

By Matt on June 19, 2013 in Guns

The word modular gets tossed around loosely when it comes to firearm parts. In the case of the new AK TRAX Hand Guard Rail System from Strike Indsutries, I would say it fits well.

The AK TRAX Hand Guard Rail System is a new hand guard system for AK family of weapons. It consists of two main parts – the TRAX1 and TRAX2. The TRAX1 replaces the standard hand guard and gas tube cover. It is a stand-alone unit that can be used with or without its top rail section. The TRAX2 is an extension to the TRAX1. It can also with used with or without its top rail installed. This modular approach makes it possible to install the TRAX Hand Guards in four different configurations.

The use of the KeyMod attachment system at 3 and 9 o’clock further enhances the modularity of the TRAX. The availability of KeyMod accessories like rail sections, light mounts, and sling mounts continues to expand which should make this system even more versatile.
