These guns should always be restored to their original AK design. The "sporter" importation configuration is goofy and an embarrassment, and nobody wants that. It's also easy to do and parts are available, so there is nothing to stop you

The shroud is cosmetic, so maybe just forget it? Put a brake or flash hider on instead

It is amazing that those parts hold up but the geometry of that is different and the forces have more dampening. With the magazine, the geometry of it relative to the recoil and the shockwave having no dampening, it puts the material is at a big disadvantage

Not 12 gauge. Also, that mag broke after that video

I'm really sure it will break on the first try. That is, a full magazine (heavy) and the recoil shock will tear the top off. Too high of leverage forces

I would terminate the idea with extreme prejudice. That magazine won't last 10 seconds

Some people have said he is legit, and some have had problems. Also, stuff from russia can take months to get. So you just have to wait and hope. Also, you will have no recourse if there is a problem. That's why it is always better to pay with a credit card

The effectiveness will depend more on the ammo than the barrel length. So for maneuverability, I would cut it to 18" exactly, measured from the closed bolt face, and try some different ammo for patterning

Short is better for interior work, go ahead and cut it down to exactly 18" You won't need a 4th port, you can enlarge the 3 ports, and it only needs to be a very slight amount

It's not bashing if it's true and high quality work is expensive, so

Or gamble on the election, if a democrat is elected, there will be a buying frenzy

Hello I don't think you will find a replacement barrel. There are almost no replacement parts on the market

The fair starting price is $1,600

The double hook trigger in an S12 in general will need some modification for clearance. If there is additional clearance issues with the right side latch, you will find out when you put it together, and it will just be a matter of making the appropriate cuts to relieve that. If you search around on here, you will find some interesting ways to grind the 2nd hook to act as a trigger overtravel stop, which is pretty cool. Maybe GunFun did a tutorial on it

Pretty darn sweet
