LOL, Good Laugh.....be well.
I love this comment very original and I can see it now too . Maybe a lazy boy or rocker
The sound of this AK is just beautiful. Imagine hearing this in the forests of Vietnam back in the 60s.

Yep, you hear that and run for the hills.

My father was part of the Algerian Military he was was issued either a (Algerian made)Russian AKM or Chinese Type 57. He said he enjoyed them both. he said the best part was that Algerian solders could easily disable them and understand their mechanism. He himself got a record for disassembling and reassembling his AK. Btw typically the Algerians removed the built in Bayonet cause it was basically useless in the desert and Mediterranean landscape.
Our US Army guys in Vietnam called it AK50 for the Chinese version. AK47 is Russian.
Hickok your the best teacher when it came to firearms.
Agreed how knows a lot about guns history!
And ELA
And a decent one about life sometimes.
Isn't he a retired HS teacher?
Agree
The first time I have fired a full auto M16 in the Philippines, it made me chills. But firing a captured Communist rebel AK47, I was jumping for more like a kid. The experience 35 years after still gives me a lifetime experience. Today, I know it was not the original Russian AK but a Chinese AK. Who cares, what I care it has a full auto selector. 20 years here in the US, I have not fired any full auto rifles. It will give me the chills just to hold one. That's going to be the icing of my semi auto rifles collection, a tried-and-true full auto. Yes, there are some being sold or auctioned but the chances of getting one in the open market is rare and expensive. I don't want the FBI checking my bank accounts of my gun purchases.

The Russian ak copied the German version I read the ak book he designed after the Germans riffle and made it cheaper and more durable to survive the snowy weather
@@Gam18 That is what I read too. The differences the German assault rifle was overengineered. Just like their Tanks. While Kalashnikov made it simpler, cheaper and faster to produce. It easy to find AKs. But the German Sturmgewehr or STG 44 is so rare that it's a collectors item.
I remember fighting in Afghanistan and ISO OIF, our M-16s were much more accurate than the 47 and 47 versions held against us. When clearing rooms, and firefights at close range the 47 was much more effective. The 47 would pierce through walls, and anything you thought might provide cover. Frags were the only thing that was keeping us alive when in close quarters.
7.62> 5.56
It's scary to think about cause most people see guns and think ha ha modern warfare go brr but AKs are no joke, they will destroy an unarmored person up close like you wouldn't believe, like something out of a cartel video
@@peterreily1490 just about to say this, the Ks in Afghanistan have been in use since before the Russians went in, you could see daylight if you looked down the bore
AK-47 smoothbore ....no longer AK-47 rifles
Those Aks you saw in Afg were probably older than your M2HBs...
I remember when the Norinco AK's were commonly imported in the late 80's/ early 90's and then that importation was banned which also stopped the chinese SKS and tokarev clones from being imported. They were so cheap back then but I was just a child at the time. The quality was far superior to that of the Romanian Aks which were imported later. The Norinco is about as close as one can get to a Vietnam era NVA/VC Ak, provided it was the milled receiver version as the Norinco also has the correct tri-blade bayonet. Whats ironic is Norinco has continued to be imported into Canada since the Us import ban.
We still have plenty of Type 56 and semi-auto Type 56 SKS in the local militias here in China.
@@JackY-pu5nh why do you people do what you do?
its always good to see Hickok still up and running
I remember back in the 1980s those type 56 rifles were selling at around 250. Still kicking myself for not getting a milled receiver type 56.
How much does it cost now?
@@mustafaaljawhar1563a new car
@@mustafaaljawhar1563you can’t buy them now, since they aren’t being imported. The ones that are still here can range wildly in price but on average they are way more expensive
Remember the SKS around 1996, they were priced at $ 65.00 , we were hunting , at lunch we made a trip to Larry's Pistol and Pawn in Huntsville, Al, he had several crates stacked on the floor for sale, I don't know why I didn't realize I should have bought as many as he would sell me.
I have such a soft spot for the Chinese AKs, mostly because I have one, except it was one of the first of the bans. But they are exceptional rifles.
@Jason Puddy i also have one of them and very happy with it very reliable no problem greetings from South Africa
Egyptian Maadi imported in 1983 were some of the best... It WAS the first...
@@Jreb1865 Funny you mention the Maadi AK, my personal experience was that the Maadi was the most crude and unrefined build of any AK I had ever seen. I suppose it just depends on the luck of the draw. 👍🏻
@@nigel900 maadis fro century were trash, styer maadis were the goat. They were imported fully built on their original receivers. After 922r came out requiring AKs to be imported in spotter configurations with single stack mag wells, century bought out the rest of the parts kits and put them together very poorly. If you ever find a styer import maadi, especially below 2,000 dollars buy it!
M70 Ab2 Yugoslav Version one of the best in the world.Type 56 is solid,but the M70 is Dad.
Without the curved magazine, the rifle looks ordinary. With it, the rifle is surely one of the most striking-looking rifles ever made.
And they say it's unattractive. It's the most beautiful firearm on earth.
That's what i like aks in 7.62, not just because the better armor penetration, but also for that damn curved magazine look.
nothing about ak is ordinary really

Hickok45 is a national treasure. Thank you for this video. One of my favorites.
This is probably one of the absolute coolest videos you've ever posted.
The original Beijing Armory #386, type 56 rifle ,required 157 milling processes , that's why the AKM replaced it. The original 56 had mahogany furniture, detachable knife style bayonet w/ steel belt scabbard , a flat muzzle nut ,chrome lined barrel, sage green cotton/ leather sling, aforementioned milled receiver (large slots) and highly polished bolt. Polytech Legend AK-47S Is exact , made at same Armory! Sold all mine when they gained too much value to shoot!
The Germans set up the Chinese rifle workshops before the war, until the Japanese made them stop. It's possible that is where they got their gunsmith traditions, and why they delayed switching over to stamped parts.
@@temper44 The red army stole all the tooling when they smashed up Manchuria, so it is probably because the great leaps forward + cultural revolution etc. stopped all R&D from happening at all
Hickok we love you brother! Your such a great man to have in the 2A community and we're glad to have you. Keep up the vids!!!
Good morning Vietnam
Chinese AK varient is so well made, and looks amazing
"Let's put it back on fun switch"
Took the words right outta my brain
Thank You Hickok for giving Us an Honest Review of the AK !! And Especially Running some Ammo through the thing !! I saw NO Jams , No Failures ! Thank You For Your Service , Bro !
That's awesome you're finally doing a video on this I have a Chinese polytech legend 56 And a Chinese type 86A1 underfolder In my eyes they are some of the best AKM Ever made And from what I've read back in the day China was buying a lot of American steel so there is a good chance they have American steel in them
Today, I didn't even have to use my AK
I gotta say it was a good day. 😜

Have a Romanian SLR One and Bulgarian Arsenal. Both Great AKs. The Bulgarian one is extremely accurate. I use Wolf Ammo. Never a Jam and fun to shoot. Thanks for the video 🎥
Nice gun, i have the only Russian 1.6mm stamped AK, its the early ISD Bulgaria, Armory U.S.A SSR-85C-2 it is a Hybrid AK47 built from pristine Type 3 decommissioned Bulgarian Ministry Of Defense, AK47 rifles, then imported to Armory U.S.A in Houston Texas, as single stack rifles, and Armory U.S.A milled out the mag opening to dead on exact AKM Specs for double stack mags, People like to call them "Parts Kits" but they were all done on an assembly line under the supervision of Ivan Kolev, Cheif engineer of Arsenal of Bulgaria, that designed the 1.6mm receiver, which before them the only other to do that were the Chinese like your rifle, The SSR-85c-2 rifles have the best AK47 parts like the complete barrel assembly, Styer processes Cold Hammer Forged Chrome Lined barrel, sights, top cover, bolt and carrier, and trigger group parts from unissued Bulgarian Ministry Of Defense Type 3 AK47, with an AKM stammped 1.6mm receiver trunnions, trigger guard, and AK-74 style stock set, it really is a Beautifuly nice rifle, Afer Armory U.S.A sold off, the later guns are marked TGI and are not of the same quality at all.

Stamped receivers denote them as the AKM family which had quicker production time and cheaper to produce. AK-47's were early versions with milled receivers and this includes the Finnish Valmet RK62 a heavily modified AK-47-their 3rd version of improved Ak-47. The Valmet M72 (stamped receiver) was produced for civilian /semi automatic use..
АК-47 собирался на штампованно- клепаной ствольной коробке, не был принят на вооружение и в войска не поставлялся. На фрезерованной коробке собирался только автомат АК.
Summer of '84, Ft. Knox, Ky. Warsaw Pact weapons familiarization included a number of their munitions, small arms, & a heavy machine gun. I fired a Chinese SKS carbine (solid milled receiver) & a Romanian made AKM, also learned the "trick" of laying down effective fire with an AKM. I was favorably impressed. We sent a lot of rounds downrange that day & NOT a single one of those weapons malfunctioned!
Kind Thanks Hickok45! Some fancy shootin there! I’ve been a cabinetmaker many years and have used many gallons of shellac. Made from beetle egg cases that are collected and dissolved in denatured alcohol. It’s been used for centuries. In our early days it was often called spirit varnish. I’ve restored many a shellac finish on period antiques and some gun stocks. It is a tough finish, easy to touch up but not as weather resistant as an oil based varnish. Paste waxing it will keep it lovely. You can also remove shellac with denatured alcohol and on an old finish carefully remove grime and grease then wax but you must be quick. Always experiment of course. Many Blessings and Kind Thanks! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
You described the thing "shellac". I had seen it in China when I was a child. It was used as furniture finish. Its dry form looks like crubled something (I didn't know it came from bugs). Once dissolved, magic happened and it looks like clear paint. I recall the carpenter used a rag, not a brush to apply it. I asked what paint that is, he said that's not paint, it's "clear skin" 清皮。
Don't know if you'll see this Mr Hock but I am 20 and have watched you for quite some time, though only a few videos. I find Chinese weapons to be absolutely fascinating and seeing your experienced take on this weapon was great. Thanks.
I swear the screwdriver caught my eye. I have one just like it. It's my "goto" screwdriver out of dozens that I own. Mine is at least 50 years old.
My dad has the same one exactly, I'm 42 and I recall that thing being around for as long as I can remember.
Norinco AK are top tier and are very good pre ban from what I remember
There are many good channels that discuss, demonstrate & critique firearms but when it comes right down to the nitty gritty, none of them really come close to Hickok45.
I came across a Mossberg 152 K , for a 72 year old gun, it's in excellent shape and shoots just as well. Love the old guns.
Finnish army has used their own versions of original AK-47 since -60's. First model they basically took all weaknessess out, like stamped reciever -> milled one, much thicker reciever cover and moved aims.
Im a simple guy, when I see the full-auto video I like first before start watching. 😘😘
I always love Mr Hickok's post-shot giggles 😂😂
It is always fun to watch someone who is passionate about the subject. Truely inspirating.
Да, прикольно хихикает дед)
Always loved your range, keep doing your thing 🔥
Such a lovely work of art.
I have a polytech copy, and it's the sweetest ak I've ever shot. Love that thing
Earlier this year I acquired a Kalashnikov USA KR103SF, or side folding stock. Sure is fun to shoot, although not full auto. Recently got the quick release optic mount that attaches to the left side of the receiver and installed a red dot. I can quickly remove the optic and use the side folder to use it as a pistol and iron sights.
Does the red dot lose zero with the quick release ?
@@AK4974U Not so far. But I can't imagine it coming loose as the mount is adjustable for tension. I put it on and took it off and checked placement with a digital caliper. Near perfect.
also unique to the type 56 is the RPK pattern of the rivets and just to keep hickoks stock from getting loose there is an easy trick i learned from Robski aka the AK Operator where you take some wood chips like when youre carving something with a knife and unscrew the stock and then put the fibers or wood chips together with the screw back in and it automatically tightens up pretty good and keeps the stock from getting loose. anyway nice video i love the AK platform and the type 56 is one of top 3 AKMs of all time!
I served in the army in China for five years. The gun used 4 years. Very practical an automatic rifle.
That terrifying sound I use to heard it when my dad he was a soldier back in Vetnam war the sound does do the talking
yes,China give millions to Vietnam
I'm glad this got recommended to me. Used to watch every video. Thank you for what you do and being awesome!
He never seems to disappoint
My father, a former Iraqi Armed Forces Captain, has one of these, it was commissioned in 1995, the weird thing is that it doesn't have a buttstock or the bayonet, he was decommissioned in 2003, but he still has the weapon.
What happened to your country's armed forces was such a disgrace.
@@PrimericanIdol agreed.
@@PrimericanIdol but the army is still a bit strong to be honest, we pushed ISIS back to Syria
That AK is a conversion (legally) from semi to full-auto. You can see the letter A is added by engraving. The selector stop also is cut short.
That's why he said that.
Lovely, I always prefer the Aks with the wooden stock , I’m not a fan of the folding stock, the Romanian AK with the dong is also another lovely firearm
I wanna see you knock every single target down, your aim is right on points, I don’t get to shoot them, so I enjoy watching you shoot them, what a cools Ak 👍👍👍
Hickok shooting full Auto the first time is perfect meme material.
Bought a semi-auto Chinese AK back in the day and took it over to the Duarte shooting range where I emptied a few wooden crates of ammo through it. Couldn't believe how hot the barrel became after just a few shots, and that got me wondering how insanely hot the barrel would get in full auto, and how accuracy would be affected when a rifle barrel gets too hot to touch.
That's why the AK is made cheap
Compared to guns made in this time anyway
I love how much you enjoy shooting.
Thanks Again Mr Hickok, Ive watched this video probably 10 times I like it so much. I bought my First Norinco in early 85' when I was 24. I now have a 47s and a 87s. I think they are beautiful guns. The 47s was $456 out the door and the 87s was $525 out the door in 85'. Back then I remember ammo was hard to find. Keep Em Firing!
10:57 "HeHe" he felt true joy for the first time in his life.
My father still says to this day that during his years in Vietnam, he would gladly choose the AK over the M16 if he couldnt have his M14. That said, the AR platform has come a long way since then.
It´s always nice to see a new video from this channel :)
They are beautiful Type 56,pretty good for reverse enginered and up there with the best AKM
Yeah these are considered high grade now.
"finnish RK 95 enters the chat"
Hello there.
As one might come to expect, but costed accordingly even back when AK's were cheap.
I heard they got the technical data package before the Sino-Soviet split and pissed off the Soviets because of their liberal exportation of the rifle.
@@ToreDL87 In the 80s i had a choice of a brand new in the box from china a semi type 56 with folder spike or a old ex NZ Army L1A1 ,course i got the FAL both were only a couple hundred NZD,sold the FAL for good money then our government grabbed all the semi auto centre fire rifles and lever guns if more than 8 cap except bolt guns of 5 shot cap and shot guns are down to max cap of 3 here in New Zealand
Man you’re still going on strong love to see it! Been watching you for at least 10 years
Why is it so insanely fun to shoot fully automatic firearms? LMAO!!
Really interesting that in full auto it doesn't have much rise. I fired a Thompson SMG with the drum and it rises a lot.
back in the days watching movies, good guys' guns can fire forever and easily take out 70 enemies without any need to reload.
Once you go AK you never go back! Got rid of all my AR's and never looked back!
hi hickhock45, this is actually the first video of yours ive managed to click onto before it reaches the 1 hour since uploaded mark.
Crazy!!
Hickok45 was a teacher. I cant believe he said "metal ammo". Copper, brass, steel, iron, etc is all metal! Oh well! No one is perfect. Pretty sure he meant steel cased ammo.
Hickok is a Str8 LEGEND!! Glad to see your still making great content. Godspeed brother.

Racism and prejudice is a big reason people dislike China made weapons.
I recognize Mr. Kitamura's argument in favor of state funerals (kokoku funerals) as the interpretation and opinion of a lawyer.
For your information, the argument of lawyers and others opposed to state funerals (state funeral rites) is that what is stipulated in the Law for Establishment of the Cabinet is that the Cabinet is allowed to decide only to manage the affairs of what is recognized and stipulated as a state ceremony, and that it is not explicitly stated in the context of this Law for Establishment of the Cabinet that state funerals (state funeral rites) are state ceremonies. The context of the Act for Establishment of the Cabinet Office does not clearly state that a state funeral is a national ceremony. Therefore, it seems to be the view that a Cabinet decision cannot be made by the Cabinet alone, and that a number of new laws are required to decide on state funerals (state funeral rites) as state ceremonies.
I think it is very problematic for only a few people in power to decide who is eligible for a state funeral...
I think the cabinet's decision is a broad interpretation of the law on the establishment of the cabinet.
My dad had that same wood-handled screwdriver set for a hundred years, seemed like.
It's not a scary bayonet, it's a built-in rifle stand.
I hope Hickok celebrates his 100th birthday smacking that gong with his beloved Glock or my favorite SIGs!

I have the Norinco AK47, 2 of them actually. Its extremely loud! I was shooting at some targets in front of railroad ties and I noticed the rounds were going clean through 2 layers of solid oil soaked railroad ties. It wouldn't help to hide behind a tree if they are shooting at you.

Yugoslavian version of AK had magazines that hold bolt in back position when you done with ammo, but if you release empty magazine then immediately bolt go in front position.
