The first time i see this guy not shitting over someones video
This video is silly as fuck. I thought you were gonna say something intelligent like “I run an AK bc I prefer the stopping power of 7.62x39” or “I prefer using a side charger”…But hey, ever heard of a KS47? AR that shoots 7.62x39 and takes AK style banana clips. And there’s plenty of side charging options too, you can choose your barrel length, they come in piston driven versions commonly, etc, etc, my fingers will go numb if I type out all of the advantages. But on the real I like AK’s too, but I’m not gonna lie to myself and say it’s a better rifle. I’m glad to hear yall are training though.
@@pistolpeteskeet not everyone has experience reviewing things to know what you specifically would want to see, they talked about their guns and why they like them and didnt do anything ignorant doing it. Also not ar pistols or dracos. Why hate?
@@murderlesson101 XD he deleted his comment
I’m an AR guy, but those are some hard looking AK’s.
I came here for ak
Same
I came BECAUSE of AK’s😂
Those are some clean ass builds.
Much appreciated bro
@@guerrillasinthemist for surely, i just got me a dpms anvil. Things clean
I’m preferential to an akm pattern rifle too. I’m left handed and the reload on the ak for a lefty is super easy and crazy fast. And reliability.
how fast are you reloading?
This is why I try to stay off the internet, now yall got me looking for an ak to build lmfao
Those are some sweet fighting rifle setups y’all. I love it.
🤝🏾🤝🏾
I personally run ARs for SHTF due to the fact that in the US, the AR is much more dominant, thus more spare parts and more support. Don’t get me wrong, I love the AK, but the support is not as much compared to the AR.
AK in the truck.
Pretty sure they’re 1 and 2 in commonality so I don’t think that’s a real issue
Kinda expected this to be the early 2000s military history channel type talking points of “762 does more damage😲, if you’re in a gunfight and your AK gets burried in mud for 2 months, you can dig it out and it’ll still work😲AKs are cheaper, and the ammo is too😲”
But honestly it was a cool video, good to hear why you’d choose to run one nowadays, can’t say I disagree🤘
I guess you never seen what m193 shot from a 20in AR15A2 can do to someone
@@chrisnukem2133 I've taken hogs with both, and 7.62 is a lot more destructive. 556 makes a nasty wound, but it doesn't go deep. x39 blows a hole through and drops it instantly.
I definitely love the aesthetic of the ak way more than the AR. Like u said, u can have the same gun look 50 different ways with the same utility (light, optic, grips, etc) all going about it differently. Honestly the only downside to the AK platform is your more likely to get an AK with nonconcentric threads/bore than an AR. So suppressing an AK can be a bitch but its worth it. Love the content. Would love to see a breakdown of each of your aks as well.
AK-47 IS YOUR BEST FRIEND !
Yes 🤠
Definitely feel the "boringness" of ARs vs AKs. Running Ak's def takes more skill to operate efficiently. But the "boringness" of the AR 15 is what makes it such a great platform. You don't have to think as much once you get the manual of arms down. Everything is right where it needs to be. So all you need to do is focus on yourself and the fundamentals. Aks are better at testing you as a shooter and I'll never get rid of mine, but I had to go back to maining an AR cause it just makes sense in the world we live in today. Love yalls videos though and how much yall shoot. That's the biggest thing, fuck what's better, just go out and shoot. Train haha.
That’s our biggest thing. It’s no hate towards the AR platform but it’s too easy. Basically automatic vs manual.
Only why ar’s are better because they hold bigger mags than ak’s
@@user-os6cg2vi7tbigger mags?😂
Ak is straight forward too 🤨
I'm an AR guy, but def think people should run what they like. Both are great platforms and have pros and cons.
🤝🏾
Yoooo it’s great to see fellow brothers support the 2A movement fr!! I’m in the Army as a combat engineer and I’m an AR guy fasho😤😂. 13.7 Sabre, Romeo 5 red dot, b5 sopmod sabre furniture, accurate up to 350 yards and love it. Would definitely try an AK though and am interested in getting the AK-103 from PSA. In a SHTF situation, I would much rather have the accuracy of an AR and the ammo abundance of 5.56. Mad respect to the AK platform fasho, cannot deny the durability of one. The modern AR’s though have become much more rugged and comparisons are getting tighter. Keep up the great content guys!! #AR🤝🏽#AK
Any opinion on your tubular stock versus the standard you went from? Cheek holds or the feeling of it weight balance?
All three builds are dope and the presentation of the video was solid, shoutouts to the camera man / editor cause that was clean. Subbed and lookin forward to more vids like this.
Y'all made me get an ak, but in serious shit I'll take high end ARs over any AK with very few exceptions. Love yalls content. I'll have to make a vid on my AK and thoughts about said exceptions pros and cons.
real
That outro 😂 just stumbled across your channel, really dig the videos and vibes
Zenitco goes on all aks 😮💨🔥🔥
They're overpriced for aesthetics to LARP like a "Russian Operator."
Thank you for sharing your views on the AK platform. Very solid points. I love an AR and will trust it with my life, but I keep an AK at my bedside. Seems like you guys want to stick with 7.62x39, have you thought about plan B if and when it dries up? Been looking at Beryls and Galil ACE Gen 2, but so far no commit.
Looks like y’all have quality firearms and optics. I like to see that.
I like what you said about the manual of arms. As crazy as it sounds I am more comfortable running a AK. Its a workout running a AK. I like the knock down power of 7.62x39. The fact that it compromises cinder block makes me smile. I enjoy my AR it has some great strengths, but the simplicity and reliability of the AK keeps it as my go to rifle. You guys have some solid set ups!!! great video!
its all about your training whatever you most comfortable and use the most... muscle memory and all that
stay prepared and safe
Yo for my first AK what do you guys suggest me getting? I’d like to modify it as well.
Shoot us a dm on instagram can go in detail on there
Awesome AKs guys.....love to hear debates on this subject....I love the AK as well as ARs but my MAK90 is my 1st love lol kool vid subbed 👍🏼💪🏽👊🏼🎯🔥💨
Yeah, AK's were always cool to me so i took a couple classes to learn to build them. The fact that you can get parts to build a 9mm or 5.56 AK is a plus.
AR "aluminum rifle"
You need to wrap that top rail on the collapsible stock with 550 paracord. Wrap it super tight towards the receiver, wrap around the bottom tube where it join up, then secure it with black electrical tape on the final couple rows. Makes for a great cheek weld and looks super cool.
Got a cheek riser for it already
To me, the 2 massive advantages of an AK are that it is much easier to operate in the cold with gloves on. And secondly when I shoot my a r sometimes and I seat the mag on a closed bolt I hear a click but when I let go. The mag falls out. I'm not the only one this happens too it's an incredibly common Issue for a lot of people. But I've never done a mag change on my AK and wondered if the mag was truly in there or not.
This was my first of yall's videos, but everything was spot on! Those clean ass builds earned you a sub right here 👌😂
Better stopping power, I have a romanian wasr 10/63 it's better than any security blanket. 😅
Those AKs are dope and all 3 look different
U guys need vickers guide Kalashnikov volume 1 if you really like the akm platform. It has the trials guns in it and one that was presented to Joseph Stalin. After that comes every country that was in the Warsaw pact with Russia that had a patent to make the rifle. I have two polish rifles, one an akm from 1966 and the other a milled receiver, both excellent rifles with cold hammer forged barrels and laminated furniture…
AK was built as a Battle rifle. Big bullet and rugged for durability purposes born in fire and came out as iron. AR is like a kids toy it's damn near all made out of plastic built for boom and zoom easy to handle and operate under stressful situations and not as heavy. I'm an AK guy but, maybe for long distance purposes 100yard+ but, if we're clearing rooms or in some urban environment then AR all day long because it's more practical. I like to use the AK as if it's a mid range sniper rifle with fully automatic capabilities.
I was never a fan of Romanian dong handguards, but this guys build changed my mind. The black tape was a nice touch
what's the side optic mount on the AK on the left? w the eotech and magnifier
New subscriber. I like this Show and Tell format where the audience can talk sheet. I also like your Mission Statement and support your Human Right to self-defense, affirmed in the 2nd Amendment. And advantage of 7.62x39mm is better ballistic penetration of materials, at least at closer ranges.
I used to collect them. Had about 8 or 9 of them back in the 90s. I wish i kept them all. That was back when they were 300 bucks for an akm and 90 bucks for an sks before they stopped the importation of them. That's the reason I can't get myself to spending what they are now for one. I still have an old Egyptian maadi in the safe though
Ive used an ar in sub zero freezing conditions and hot as balls, between the 2, its really personnal preference, both handle fine in nearly every environment. I also will say it depents on the set up. Ive always used a gpr. An ar will always be lighter and smaller than a similarly set up ak. If you want 7.62, go 300bo or just ×39, though i will say, theres a reason lots of armies are going to a ar-18 design.
300 is meant to run suppressed definitely doesnt have the Umfff the 762 provides
@@yngchino1130 just saying it's an option, 7.62 is a fine round, not my preferred round personally.
I chose 7.62×39 cause 308win ammo cost and quality AR10 rifles are hard to come by I love Battle rifles. PSA has my attention with their pa10 and sabre10 line though but for now I'm running KUSA KR103 as my main fighting rifle😂
@dariuswilliams7509 I mean 7.62 x51 is very different from x39 but ok.
I’ll get an ak some day🥲
A full size m16a1 is twice as scary looking as an AK-47.
556 coming out a 20 inch barrel is spicy

You covered why I like my AKM's good job, I subed...
Yes 😎

The AK-47 stands out as one of the greatest firearms ever made due to its unmatched durability and reliability. It works flawlessly in the toughest conditions making it a favorite in conflicts worldwide, not to mention it is incredibly easy to use. Its simplicity, combined with affordability and global availability, has made it a trusted weapon for decades. The rifle's widespread availability and low production cost further cement its status as one of the greatest firearms ever designed. which is why i own 2 trust PSA AK9mm and GF3's :) Sometimes you got to go against the grain AR's are alot like elephants once youve seen one you just about seen them all lol.
I'm so used to AK that I sometimes fumble when fast operating AR..
Also most importantly AK stock basic surplus trigger is light-years ahead of an AR trigger. AR you have to spend a lot to get a decent trigger. I also have bought both the best triggers too and I'll tell you the ALG ak trigger is better than the guiselle SD3G
Love it everyone has nice builds. train with the weapon and know what they’re talking about
Awesome. Stay safe guys.
Guy on the left be lookin like kobe bryant tho
Damn boi those some nice pieces. Got that cable management on point, nice weapon lights GAHDAMN.
I think for most people ARs make more sense. I have a Bulgarian 5.45 with zenitco furniture that's super nice but if I could only have one gun, it'd be the AR15. Ammo and parts availability, and the fact that you can get decent ARs for a lot cheaper than decent AKs.
I like AKs for the vibes and the fact that 5.45 is so smooth. There's just something different about them.
I have less recoil with an AK. I know that shouldn't happen but it does, at least for me personally. I think it's because the AK is heaver so takes more force to move, but I'm not an expert. Maybe I'm just weird.
Glock for a side arm and ak for a rifle
Love from your Mexican brother. Damn, I wish I could train with you guys. You all seem like you could teach alot
Way I always put it is an AR is more customizable, but an AK is more personal. You can know next to nothing about guns and build out a decent AR, but with an AK you can make it unmistakably *yours* in a way you just can’t do with any other platform.
I fell for that title 😂😂😂😂
I jus got my zpap XR variant and I love it ngl
Have you have you ever ran subs suppressed? Now that's a trip with an alg. You'll hear the round hit louder
New sub. Great content, guys
Nothing wrong with a a good AKM rifle. I'm a AR guy. I do think the AKM is starting to go into obsolescence. Due to the fact the AR is such a better optics platform. And it's more about the targeting system than the rifle itself. Plus with the AR. You can switch ammunition and now be able to engage from way further out. Putting distance between you and your target. 7.62x39 is akin to throwing bricks ballistics wise. Compared to 77gr OTM 5.56 stuff.
The AK in the middle is the coolest one. Love the wood stock and bottom forend. 💪🏻
There are AKs chambered in 556 as well…
My man I love my aks too..all of them..polish.arsenal.n krebs all never have any problems.keep the dope video coming
I'll take my saiga AK all day every day. I know you can get an AR to run but the one i had wouldnt run for shit.
Love that riced out Wasr on the left!!
So damn glad I found this channel
Every AR looks the same...same black rifle, same junk at the ranges every time I go. No personalities, everyone copying everyone else

AR guy here but nothing but love. I like long shots.
you guys be puttin in hella work with those in chiraq?
Lol this comment was very weak and unoriginal. Please make it funny next time 🤝🏾
Above or below replacement levels
Only reason I don’t use AKs is because the ammo isn’t super common in our country. But I like the Ak more than AR hands down
They make 556 AKs
@@guerrillasinthemist damn ya learn something new everyday
what was the song at the end??
There's only a few issues but they're pretty niche. A big one is parts availability and ease of repair/maintenance. Ak's are not as common in the united states and there's less companies making parts for them actively in this country making parts harder to source if parts being imported stops. Also actually working on the rifles, to rebarrel an ak you need a damn arbor press while with most ar pattern rifles all you need is some hand tools and a gun vise. Then there's also night vison usage with an ak. Simply put the mounting options for proper and effective night vision LAM setups are fairly limited. Along with many of them requiring you to install aftermarket rail setups, and there aren't many good options that will actually hold zero for your LAM. That bullshit being said, aks are super cool rifles and all three of those builds are badass.
no lies being told here

Was looking at getting a century arms 9mm Draco 9s but now yall make me want to jsut get the big boy lol, but damn I also wanted a AK PCC to have fun at the range without breaking the bank smh decisions
meridian defence is a beau-tie.....good choice man
I have both Ak and a mk-18 and you made me sad when you said that lmao
7.62x39 is better out of short barrels than 5.56, and the piston/bolt and carrier is more robust on a short gun than a direct gas impingement AR in a short barrel.
AKs are meant to be able to run garbage quality ammo, ARs are not.
Stuck case clearing and chamber access is better on an AK, although, an AK is less likely to get a stuck case to begin with.
These are the biggest advantages.
🔥🔥🔥 set up on the 762 platform 🏴☠️
Just got my pestilence.... they are just better 😎
for guys with zenitco handguards. real stuff cost are crazy amount to get now . but if you want a b33 frontier-armory and barwarus are maiing zenitco copys of sport handguard the rail ones and the b33. you can pre order them now. the big rail copy is already out. dont know if they will be just as good. i guess they are made in turkey and the US
AK. Big 30 cal! 🔥🔥🤷🏽♂️
Kalashnikov rifles are ok I dont want one only because I live in the US and its not as common as the Stoner rifles
These are facts
Yo what is the name of that handstop on the left ak?
Emissary hand stop/brake
@@guerrillasinthemist thank you
"I'm gonna give yall a better reason: video games and action movies." 🥴
Sounds and look impressive, young lions
To get an AK with the same modularity with modern attachments costs way more. On top of that the ammo is much more expensive due to foreign wars. No bolt hold open makes for slower reloads. Magazine compatibility is terrible.
Only one of the things you listed is true
What state is this? Can you all advocate for us folks in Ontario, Canada to get our guns back? Thanks!
Why do people bring up issues with the M16 that was during Vietnam way before they were born and it was because the government didn’t do what the designer suggested. Also there were issues with the ammunition corroding because of the hot humid weather, those problems have been solved a long time ago.
