@ImmaR4peYoAszz Steel is nice for realism but quite bad for performance. In a cold day here that Mk23 wouldn't shoot at all. I'd prefer quality CNC alluminium kits.
@angrymuffin123 by that logic, a stock plastic one cycles even better too? a steel one will cycle just as good with red gas or co2 magazines for the guns that take it, at the cost of $275, it's for people who only want the most realistic experience airsoft can offer, the ra-tech steel glock for example, weighs 10g off the real deal, where as the stock aluminium version is 300g off.
I Hope RA-TECH reads this too, because there seem to be a lot of confusion with the variety of AK models, not only at RA-TECH, but also at other companies like LCT.
Here is good summary of most models: imfdb.org/wiki/AK-47
It also shows that there are no wood grips on AK74 models.
Also the flash hider is from the AKMSU, which uses 7.62x39mm. The AK74U uses 5.45×39mm, so a different magazine would be needed as well to go with the AKMSU flash hider, if you want it to look authentic.
Of course a complete kit with an underfolder stock and a lower handguard with thumphole vertical grip would be even better, but there are real AK74U's converted to 7.62mm out there, so an AK74U with 7.62mm magazine and flash hider would be realistic enough.
@Moderaten031 Would you be so kind as to show one? Google AKS74U all of the grip you saw are bakelite (the polymer which was used in the WWII by the germans)
you're always going to finish the FIRST line of bb's that you load into it. the problem you will have is when you try to put more BBs in after you have fired all of them.
@LoneWolf8003 No, you're not always going to finish the first. My Meu marui with PGC kit can not empty a charge of bb's with a charge of gaz (slightly less). Besides, the steel slide is really heavy. But the MK23 mag is also very large, so you can put a lof of gas in it...
To me, the most important is to be able to empty one charge of bb's, at least. Because when you're going to reload the mag, you can also put gas...
@KhanSeb you raise a very good point. then again, I'm a fan of non-blowbacks for outdoor use. I have not yet had the honor of a blowback pistol. thankyou for the valuable insight.
@9rit Dude just look at the end of the video. The link is right there. I'm not even going to tell you it because you should of just done some searching. Damn....
What kind of BBs use this one in mm ?

The wood pistol grips were phased out as early as EARLY AKM... LONG before AKs-74u was put into service.

honestly i dont see a point in a steel slide. an aluminum one works perfect and the cycle rate is much faster than the heavy steel slide

P.S. Now you need an upgraded recoil spring so it cycles faster. Perhaps 150% or 160%?

Must have read your comment wrong...
I was referring to the front grip/hand guard being wood, not the pistol grip.
