From a business perspective, as firearms technology has advanced, the need for long barrels to achieve useful velocities has fallen largely by the wayside. Firearms like the Romanian-made AKM-based “Draco” pistol are an exceptional choice for home defense, and are relied upon by a great many Americans. The addition of a brace to a “Draco,” or similar, yields what is likely the most optimal choice for an all-round defensive firearm. The market clamors for these firearms, and the industry has noticed. As a result, may small dealers have these firearms in stock, and have been put in an awkward position by the ATF’s recent about-face: stuck with thousands of dollars of inventory they are afraid to sell in the configuration demanded by the right-willed consumer.
rifles are not an exceptional choice unless you live in the country or hate your neighbours. any shotgun would be safer for your kids in the next room and have more stopping power than any rifle or handgun. browning auto-5s are still pretty common here, there are other semi autos available. otherwise you can get a pump gun that holds like 8 shells, more than enough for 4 ruffians in a hallway lmao paul harrel made a great video on shotguns for home defense, check it out
I think the Draco series of AKs are pretty neat. I prefer the 12 inch barrel model, which is the actual Draco AK. The model in the video is a micro Draco with the shorter 6 inch barrel.. There is also a mini Draco with a barrel length around 8 inches. These are all very fun and cool looking guns, especially with the folding brace or a folding stock. The 12 inch version is that best all-around size for compact AKs in my opinion, better powder burn, less muzzle blast, higher velocity and better accuracy.
I've never understood why people think a draco is silly, but you never seem to hear anyone say that about an aks-74u. For a short barrel pdw, it seems to me that 762 makes more sense than 545 anyway. But I'm certainly no expert on these things, so maybe there's something I'm misunderstanding.
Two big differences here with the street version : a stock (ahem, brace) and sights. These both conflict with the target user's intended use, to carry it in they pants under they shirt and whip it out at a moment's notice to make as much noise as possible while pointing it behind them as they run away.
A better discussion topic might be how, given the street price increases for 7.62x39 ammo and the shrinking supply of cheap Russian and Chinese 7.62x39 bulk ammo, the 7.62x39 has become almost as expensive as the more powerful and widely available 7.62x51.
Short answer, yes. Long answer yes because the muzzle flash blinds you and the noise deafens you the barrel size robs the round of power. So half the power twice the flash twice the report. The accuracy is comparable to a pistol. So all the disadvantages of a pistol with all the disadvantages of a rifle. It's caca.
So this is basically the AKMSU for the civilian market, always thought the old AK cartridge was cool in a short package but yeah the issue is, is it too short.

The barrel is too short for the cartridge. The concussion from muzzle blast is too large. A trench and room clearing weapon; for such work I prefer a SMG.
Great review a lot of people hate certain things based off stereotypes. everything has pros and cons what amazes me about this is the fact it’s so small but it’s what you said still a rifle.
I think the mini is the sweet spot. I think it has similar velocity to 300blk from a 10 in barrel with its 7.75 in barrel. KNS also makes an adjustable piston for it. It has a standard rear sight as well.
Yes, some parts of the video show the Velcro strap tightened around the end plastic piece, conveniently repurposed for a makeshift "stock", even though it's not a buttstock whatsoever. If the user's arm can pass through the plastic and Velcro, it's 100% a brace.
Yes, and though it's used as a makeshift stock, effectively making this an SBR, it's a pretty crummy stock, not having a real buttplate, just the outline of one. Alternatively, you can just buy a bullpup rifle that's about 26" OAL with a 16" barrel that will give you better accuracy, velocity, and a real buttplate. Tavor X95 for example.
@@dashcammer4322 well if one were to say as an example, hold a Kel-Tec Sub 2000 outwards with only one hand or use a classic two hand pistol/revolver hold and not use the buttstock to the shoulder (not that it's a brilliant idea or anything, I wouldn't recommend it) to aim and shoot at the targets, does that count as an overly long handgun? Or is it still a rifle just as the manufacturer claims? Still, I definitely agree that a bullpup rifle configuration is more preferable to me than a (braced) large frame pistol is. This is why I would not work from the ATF ever.
Gunsmith says: It's not useless but would be better in a high caliber handgun chambering. Something specifically made for a short barrel. AK bullets aren't cheap anymore and don't you dont get a heck of a lot of velocity out of such a short barrel. Also you can't carry as much ammo. Similar to other very short rifle conversions. I'd like it if it came in 44 magnum 10mm or 460rowland would be best.😊 all bigger diameter bullets.
@@MJA5 for me it's about weight and volume of fire. How much ammo you can carry at once. 460 Rowland wins hands down. Most punch, least weight, armor is useless.
@dashcammer4322 gunsmith says: if the mag is made with rimmed cartridges in mind It can feed better than a normal mag. The recesses in the mag wall that acomodate the rim prevent the case from moving forward and backward under recoil. Just a bit tougher to make.

it was a Zastava m92
Great review a lot of people hate certain things based off stereotypes. everything has pros and cons what amazes me about this is the fact it’s so small but it’s what you said still a rifle.
Very popular among gang members.
Micro
You're back after dogging on hi-point. Congrats 🎉
I think the mini is the sweet spot. I think it has similar velocity to 300blk from a 10 in barrel with its 7.75 in barrel. KNS also makes an adjustable piston for it. It has a standard rear sight as well.
It is perfect
The draco is part of the: blue state career criminal starter pack 😂.
That and Glock swithes
Yeah we need a more true to life test, he’s gotta shoot it sideways out of a Honda civic with no brace.
Lmao, that is a great point Rorschach.
And sometimes burner phones
I swear at least half of Donut Operator videos involve either a draco or a glock with a switch
This was awesome ❤
I remember 30 years ago it was called a KRINKOFF
Krink is 5.45
@@Matt-xc6sp no it wasn't at first it was 7.62x39.
Now a days it is.
you remember wrong then, dumbass 🤡🤡
krinkov is russian ak74su, these are yet another jank romanian knockoff of a beautiful russian gun
Does this come as an option from dodge with the chargers/challengers?
wait that's a brace?
Yes, some parts of the video show the Velcro strap tightened around the end plastic piece, conveniently repurposed for a makeshift "stock", even though it's not a buttstock whatsoever. If the user's arm can pass through the plastic and Velcro, it's 100% a brace.
@@kylevidetto1115 Man I love that.
Yes, and though it's used as a makeshift stock, effectively making this an SBR, it's a pretty crummy stock, not having a real buttplate, just the outline of one. Alternatively, you can just buy a bullpup rifle that's about 26" OAL with a 16" barrel that will give you better accuracy, velocity, and a real buttplate. Tavor X95 for example.
X95 is not 7.62x 39 though@@dashcammer4322
@@dashcammer4322 well if one were to say as an example, hold a Kel-Tec Sub 2000 outwards with only one hand or use a classic two hand pistol/revolver hold and not use the buttstock to the shoulder (not that it's a brilliant idea or anything, I wouldn't recommend it) to aim and shoot at the targets, does that count as an overly long handgun? Or is it still a rifle just as the manufacturer claims?
Still, I definitely agree that a bullpup rifle configuration is more preferable to me than a (braced) large frame pistol is.
This is why I would not work from the ATF ever.
i mean, thats like saying a musket is useless and last time i checkd those took nations.

Truth
Yep...that mf is great home defense. It's great to be American
ASMR awesomeness 😎 Great video! Keep it up ✊
Gunsmith says: It's not useless but would be better in a high caliber handgun chambering. Something specifically made for a short barrel. AK bullets aren't cheap anymore and don't you dont get a heck of a lot of velocity out of such a short barrel. Also you can't carry as much ammo. Similar to other very short rifle conversions. I'd like it if it came in 44 magnum 10mm or 460rowland would be best.😊 all bigger diameter bullets.
This aint about ballistic performance, this isn’t about that, that’s vanity. - Uncle Ellis, No Country for Old Men, probably
@@MJA5 for me it's about weight and volume of fire. How much ammo you can carry at once. 460 Rowland wins hands down. Most punch, least weight, armor is useless.
Stay away from rimmed cartridges for larger capacity box or drum magazines. There are more than enough rimless carts out there.
@dashcammer4322 gunsmith says: if the mag is made with rimmed cartridges in mind It can feed better than a normal mag. The recesses in the mag wall that acomodate the rim prevent the case from moving forward and backward under recoil. Just a bit tougher to make.
@dashcammer4322 What type ffl are you? How Many guns have you invented/ made? I have made more than 20 unique firearms and my ffl is type 7. Thanks for the advice.
It’s good for when you run up against an enemy squad in a phone booth while you’re trying to make a call. 😂
Phone booth? What’s a phone booth? (You’re showing your age.)
It became popular after BLACK RAPPERS MADE IT POPULAR like we do everything else I’ll say it since he just couldn’t
Really crazy how he sounds like his Dad.
I used to carry a full sized (12.5 in) in my daughter’s diaper bag with 5 30 round mags many moons ago. Fantastic gun. Never failed
Everywhere is war torn once somebody pulls out the baby draco.
Draco’s are the equivalent to Tec-9’s in the 90s-2000s…
Except it isn't a jamomatic POS.
@@syntaxerrorsix3137 lol!
My dad used a Draco pistol during the war in SE Asia. Said that gun saved his life. But his had no stock not like this gun at all. Found a Romanian model like 15 years ago for like 450 bucks. Only a couple of years later the same gun was 1500 bucks.
Useless?? No
Overrated?? No
Overpriced?? Maybe
Novelty yes
When you get your $ from Welfare and dealing drugs, price isn't as much of a concern ;)
Decent price for what it is
@@mikecollins8241that’s messed up 😂
the century arms and zastava ones are not overpriced at all. any AK for 700 bucks of todays money isnt really bad at all
It's for close range
What an astute observation
@@laksivrak2203lol
I have a full size draco with a folding brace I absolutely love it it's extremely reliable and run it with a leinar flash forward comp it makes one sweet little package
People don’t blink when talking about a 300 AAC HD pistol, suppressed or not. Add a brace and a 3 piece flash hider, and it’s a PDW.
I think about 3-4 more inches of barrel would help a lot and would get a good boost in velocity and still be very compact.
The problem with the Draco is that it’s compact enough to carry in a backpack and criminals love that.
Good for close quarter combat not long range targets
Yes. Next question.
that sound and fireball makes it cool af
Not as a PDW against the growing mobs of furrinners to protect your family
I had a century as 47 from 20 plus years ago I purchased new, it key holed new out the box, and I sold it to the first guy who wanted it. He fired a bunch of corrosive ammunition in it and destroyed it.
overrated yes useless nope
