A hammer forged, chrome lined barrel and chamber provide the ultimate in long life. The driftable post front sight with protective ears is adjustable for windage and elevation. The notched side catch with bar rear leaf sight is adjustable for elevation. The rear sight has presets for 109, 218, & 328 yards. The comfortable, ergonomic operating handle makes charging the firearm effortless. The spring loaded magazine release provides for quick magazine changes. The elongated selector handle allows for a smooth transition from safe to semi-auto.

Good purchase especially since the 7.62 x 39 ammo is cheaper than .223. Front sight base was WAY off, thinking of sending it back but didn't want the hassle. Mounted an inexpensive red dot that's right on and never misses. Removed old stock first thing. P

The rifle fit and finish is superb and everything is tight. It looks like a work of art and shoots better in my hands than my prior ar's(at least at the 25m zero). I haven't gone farther yet. Shot 80rnds only of wolf and Tula without any problems whatsoev

Excellent Russian product. Metal work is excellent. Very easy to convert over to high cap mags and pistol grip configuration. Original hand gaurd is nicer IMO than a standard AK hand gaurd and is more comfortable. The stock has to go even if you are leavi

I took the rifle apart and cleaned it prior to use and I think I did something wrong b/c my first shots were misfires caused by the pin striking too lightly. We disassembled and then put it back together at the range and it has fired flawlessly since. Fed
