OptimusPrime

Want to talk about Tactical AKs? CQB Radio wants to hear from and already wrote something aboout these... "Some people love tactical AKs, some hate them.  Me - I like them a lot. As a guy who usually runs support, I am more biased toward a MK46 or a MK43, and of course - the M249 is always fun too. BUT I am becoming more and more open to the AK-family, and the tactical AK is the kind I tend to like best. I do get that some people are 'AK purists' - they need a wood stock, nothing 'tactical', and that's the end of the discussion.

aRick of Public Enemy is now back from Taiwan and his new video shows that his GHK AK Gas Blowback Rifle has a new feature installed by Hephaestus. This is a left side selector switch, similar to Galil rifles, which makes it easier for you to put the rifle from safe to fire modes, and vice versa.

Strike Industries AK Rail with Keymod

OptimusPrime

The Keymod system that was developed and openly shared by VLTOR Systems now gets an AK rail made by Strike Industries. This sets a standard in attaching accessories on rifle front-ends and can be easily reconfigured. Since the Keymod system is open, any manufacturer can develop their own products with it. We think that this is perhaps the first Keymod for the AK platform.
