An AK with an adjustable cheek riser! Now I've seen it all!da, rifle is fine...
Dont laugh..An AK with an adjustable cheek riser! Now I've seen it all!
The cost is even more laughable .Dont laugh..
I believe thats all Russian made stuff that the military uses Zenitco. The furniture probably costs more than an Arsenal AK.
I'm conflicted. Most of this goes against the very notion of the platform of having a low manufacturing cost rifle that shoots well enough out of the box with no additional accessories and can be fabricated just about anywhere with basic tool overhead requirements. On the other hand, some of these features go a long way to solving the shortcomings of the platform with very little effort. The horizontal tab on the middle of the selector that allows for index finger manipulation is brilliant and not completely out of the spirit of the original. Reinforcement of the top cover to allow for reliable zero optics mounting is a logical progression. Yet, I kept going back to the famous mantra of "rifle is fine" in my head.
I think I'll continue to play Legos with AR pattern rifles and leave AK's alone (when I finally dip my toe in that area).
So you just described the AR.
The A1 was a great light rifle, WTF happened ?
Catch words happened ("force multipliers"). And then manufacturers figured out guys like to accessories as much, if not more than women. I suppose I'm guilty on all fronts there as well.So you just described the AR.

But the original AR's were not in the same class of ease of manufacture as the AK. Stamped receivers and use of wood instead of furniture requiring injection molding means any factory could pump out the AK. Hell, even the springs on an AK are easier to fabricate.
Easy for a developed country to manufacture.
I think that actually agrees with my point in a round-about sort of way.
