what to look for in an AK?

[XinTX]

Well I recall you trying to 'hurt' yours to give it a bit of that BFPU look. It didn't hurt it any more than either of our ham-handed build quality during the sauna day.

But yeah, an AK is a pretty tough old bird. And if the front sight is a bit canted, some Kentucky windage can help.

The FSP is pinned on lol. However, they're pins that weren't meant to be taken out, so who cares if they get bent up and deformed.

I know but I've read they out it in a vice and beat the shit out of it

Kalashnikov was pimping everything in his latter years, from vodka to rifles; but in his heart he knew he got the AK right the first time, and it didn't need such "accessories!"

I can lie I've thought about putting a railed gas tube on mine for a pay micro dot but since I filed my rear sight it's a whole lot quicker getting on target.

I do want a left side charge handle dust cover sort of....

For the purpose for which he designed it, storming-of-the-trenches type assaults common to the Soviets, yep. Some of us are just 'murcanizing that philosophy a li'l bit
