AK47 & AK74 Review

[Anunnakiless]

but of coooourse! Bulgarian parts are veeeery good ahhaahhaah

[gruntpwnsnubz]

My bayonet lug was filed down dammit why did they do that is there any way I can fix this get a new part or something?

[money50863]

Tbh it won't break in your lifetime unless you run over it or something really stupid like that

[SuperRip7]

AK-74 is the most tameable

[reeseman67]

@SuperRip7 Agreed, this new 'AK-108', or the counterbalanced one to eliminate recoil doesn't make sense, there's no recoil to begin with!!! It REALLY is like shooting a .30 carbine/M1 Carbine, so enjoyable to shoot. I have fallen in love w/my SGL 31.... Great rifles' with an EXCELLENT 5.45x39mm chambering, and it is also a little more appropriate for the AK platform vs. the 7.62x39mm in term's of recoil management.

[flattop11438]

ak103?

[StraightDeu]

I was thinking about getting a WASR-10 but I've heard a lot of bad things about them. However, If I'm only looking to spend about $500-$600 would it be a decent buy to get the WASR and get a TAPCO G2 trigger group ( fix the trigger slap) for it?

[Psycolynch]

@StraightDeu  I own a wasr 10, AR-15, and Mini-14, The Wasr "CAN" be a good gun. You just have to find the right one. For example after 2010 model with the Tapco parts, make sure the barrel is straight, the receiver is not damaged in any way, and the mag well drilled to the correct size, and watch for cantted front sights, some are worse than others. If you go to a gun dealer and you do not like the gun they present to you, do not buy it, Ask for a couple different ones to compare.

[Psycolynch]

@StraightDeu CONTINUED>......I personally refinished the wood funiture, and added a new muzzle break. I have never had a problem with mine, however i have seen other wasrs way worse than mine. If you buy one be choosey, but for the price @400 if you get a good one it is a great value unless you want to spend 1500-2000K for a Arsenal AK.

[reeseman67]

@Psycolynch They don't go for that much, if it's a MILLED receiver, yea you're paying for an AMERICAN MADE MILLED gun. The MSRP is a little more than what they go for but I paid $720 shipped for my SGL 21(7.62x39mm/AK-103 style) and $800 for the SGL 31(5.45x39mm/AK-74N style). To me, the peace of mind of where the parts come from, how well they are assembled, their attention to detail and knowing the Saiga it starts as is an entirely NEW rifle, that makes them well worth the extra $200 to me.

[reeseman67]

@StraightDeu Spend $700 and get an Arsenal?

[MegaGamerRO]

How much rounds can fire ak47 before it breaks ?

[lance1499]

@MegaGamerRO  it doesent break that easy

[101crazys]

@GunWebsites Do you own ALL of these?!?

[rrrr779]

[MARFORCJTF]

I want a G3A3 full auto mine got stolen a long time ago now all these dam crazy people have made them illegal to import...

[Avanger011]

[GunWebsites]

@Avanger011

[edinak92]

awesome video

[DragonSkin342]

Polish Tantal made in America. Mindfuck.

[WAzzzUUppp]

ill take them all



[nuclearfish010]

how is the "triangle" stock collapsible ? 

[dvict]

What is the Difference between 47 and 74?

[koolkid21ful]

@dvict size

[7commenter7]

@dvict AK47 shoots 7.62 x 39 AK74 shoots 5.45 x 39

[drumlord420]

@dvict 27...JK! 47=7.62 x 39...74+5.45 x 39.

[AFRICA4AFRICANS]

ONE THING AMERICANS HAVE MASTER..AND DO BEST OUT OF ANYONE IN THE WORLD IS WEAPONS

[duhbeatman]

ringing sound in your video goddamn. maybe i still want to be able to hear at a young age! annoying as hell

[GunWebsites]

@duhbeatman

that is on your end, or in your head.. see a doctor

[joydivisionfortheak]

@GunWebsites I can confirm that theres a ringing sound in this video.

[Comrade503Alias]

@GunWebsites Nope, its the video, cool video though, but ringing is really sickening

[ihaterobbie123]

@GunWebsites I hear it too, got young ears =]

[APatrioticRebel]

@GunWebsites Well must be on my end to. Lol but seriously there is some sort of ringing sound not loud but still there. Good video tho.

[RAINMAN22TP]

@GunWebsites no seriously there is a loud ringing

[GunWebsites]

@RAINMAN22TP

we know.. but this video was recorded and posted on Jul 18, 2009... so what would you have us do?

115,000+ people have watched this video for the information it provides.. should we delete i for a minor issue? Should we delete anything that isn't HD or 3D ?

seriously, why complain about a 2 year old tech issue on a video about guns?

what do you expect to be done?

[RAINMAN22TP]

@GunWebsites i was just stating the fact. it is a good educational video, and i enjoy watching it. i was just saying that there is loud high ringing. sorry.

[oPaRaLyZeRx]

@duhbeatman I hear the ringing also.

[norcalmafioso]

I got a question if you don't mind. If the end of the world was tomorrow what would be your weapon of choice?

[GunWebsites]

@norcalmafioso

a health mind..

[PnutButter1986]

@GunWebsites That is an awesome answer, enough said

[BuffaloTPU]

What would recomend? i have 1,300 bucks and i cand decide what i want, PREBAN AR15, AK74 Polish Tantal or a PREBAN Chinese AK47......Any thoughts?

[GunWebsites]

@BuffaloTPU

Pre-ban AR15s would be for collectors only IMO

a preban Chinese would be so old it would would either be 'worn out' or never fired (very expensive and collectible)

I suggest you do a bit more research if you still have ideas of 'pre-ban' being a selling point (it isn't)

[BuffaloTPU]

@GunWebsites .....I am a Collector.....

[GunWebsites]

@BuffaloTPU

Oh in that case, IMO an AK is more valuable since they were not made here (less of them exist here)

[BuffaloTPU]

@GunWebsites :-) Thank you!

[DragonSkin342]

@BuffaloTPU Polish. Yeah.

[USAFFountain]

Are the Armory USA AK's any good? I found one for 400 this week.

[Zkenrzttan]

where is the russian no american touched AK !?!?!?!?!?!

[posterrorscript]

nice collection, i just sold my wasr 10/63 gp made in 1987, and i purchased a IAC ak74 with wood furniture from Atlantic firearms. higher quality than wasrs and better than the arsenals in my opinion. it has chrome lined barrel, and muzzle break, and backed up with lifetime warranty. better product if you ask me! pick them up while you still can they have 4 left!

[MALCOMX2022]

hi there , i have klashinkov wrote on it 1977 , i wanna know if it is russian or not ?

reply in my inbox plz

thnx

[Oorah1987]

where are those nice wood grips made that you have on the ak-74's?

[chaquator]

Wait a minute.... Where was the first AK made?

[EmotiveZ]

@chaquator Russia! i believe?

[obeybosss]

@chaquator in USSR..isn't that obvious?

[sethboy66]

@chaquator russia

[SuperPreciousMetal]

get an original yugo m70

[Oprahd]

I own a Romanian AK-47 (under folding stock) and a Polish AK-74 Tantal (side folding stock). Both are good rifles but need a bot of filing to remove burrs when I first got them. Tantal was manufactured better than the AK-47 from the standpoint of fit and finish. Both shoot flawlessly. Watch the magazines though. I've had some problems with the plastic US made magazines. Some did not feed well until I adjusted them.

[TheSpecOpsAirsoft1]

any russian ones apart from complete foreign shit

[arkangel8419]

hey guys just got a .MISR S/A AKM I really cnt find any information on these. I just want to know what kind of AK it is. Like is it a good one or a shitty one or what? It really dsnt mater i paid 200 for the gun a hard case 3 30rnd mags 1 75rnd drum that turned out to b worth 110 a 4x28 scope & a decent tripod so i got a great deal. But icnt find any real info on these guns

[GonG108]

german , bulgarian or romanian they all make big holes in human bodys lol:)))

[marhooba]

The first wood furniture AK on here, can someone please tell me what model this gun is, and if there are any changes to it. It would be very helpful, thanks.

[MrDarkwolf1995]

ill take an AK47 over a AK74 out of the lineup ill take the Global armory

[Reyvondog]

the Arsenal ak74s are freaken beast

[ThePucko97]

In Soviet Russia gun shoots you.

Oh shit now i remember these guns aren't made in Russia.

[MrDarkwolf1995]

@ThePucko97 the Arsenal is

[nawzays23]

hey can anybody pls tell me what's the difference? i still can't differentiate both of these weapons.

[leifericson923]

@nawzays23 the ak74 shoots a smaller round.

[SniperAngle12]

@nawzays23 most ak74s have muzzle brakes while most ak47s dont and also, ak74 mags have less curve than the ak47 mags and the stock of ak74(none wire or ar-15 style the solid ones) have a fuller(a groove) while the ak47s dont

[ThePrivateMan]

@nawzays23 - Reviews may be confusing as they show various differences that may not exist between the two rifles depending upon who makes it. AK47 was put into operation by Russia in 1947 and shoots a short, fat round like a 30 caliber (762.x39). The AK 74 replaced the earlier gun in 1974 as the Soviet army rifle, with the skinnier, longer, lighter cartridge of 5.45x39 which looks more like the US Army M16/AR15 ammo. The two rifles share 60% or more of the same parts, according to some reports.

[as11188888]

You're ready for a Zombie Apocalypse

[jkatz44]

I'm looking into buying an AK 74. I am looking for one that costs very little but still is high quality. What rifle would you recommend?

[PaleHorseWC2]

@jkatz44 Cost very little=Century International; high quality=Arsenal; a combination of the two=not possible

[Orgullo88Vikingo]

Bulgarian AK is the best, bitches!

[deveans]

yeah caps lock was on, sorry

[spartanunoob]

yeah unigue alright thats why i have a romanian WASR10 ak47 with a forward grip on it yeah real unigue alright do more research next time

[GunWebsites]

@spartanunoob

learn more, then get back to me

[spartanunoob]

@GunWebsites its not unique i have 2 of them with foregrip if u meant from that certain nation company year model or caliber i would understand

[LouieIn720p]

@GunWebsites Yes, I know that... The SGL lineup. I'm just explaining. Never did I say that all the recievers were Russian made.

[Miguelsr1rst]

Hi im new in the hobby n i like the Saiga but i hear it can only accept a 10 round clip period is this true?!

[GunWebsites]

@Miguelsr1rst

not true

[Miguelsr1rst]

@GunWebsites please tell me the truth then:)

[GunWebsites]

@Miguelsr1rst

They can hold mags with more than 10 rounds

[561sage]

@GunWebsites what do you think of the romanian wasr 10 reliability and are they the cheapest?

[GunWebsites]

@561sage

eh.. and yes, pretty much

[mitsubishidiamante]

Dear Gunwebsite wish you could have AN-94 on youre vids and had it test fired

[GunWebsites]

@mitsubishidiamante

I do too

[darksidejuggernaut]

wers my ak74u my fav style gun

[xxReaverXXCerberusxx]

Can't find any genuine Kalashnikov productions as easily, Type I-III unfortunately. Loved your review of AK variants

[munchiesnOOb]

lol... hungary... sounds like hungry... damn, now im hungry!

[ryancicocki]

WHY IS EVERYONE DISSING ON THE WASR 10!!!!!! I LOVE MINE HAS NEVER JAMMED SHOOTS WELL AT 275 YARDS AND CAN STILL HIT STUFF AT 300 AND IT REALLY ISNT THAT BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND YES I HAVE SHOT OTHER AK'S I HAVE SHOT THE AMERICAN ONE THE RUSSIAN ONE AND EVEN A CHINESE ONE THERE ALL PRETTY MUCH THE SAME!!!!!!!!

[esh325]

@ryancicocki My WASR-10 shoots perfectly too. And shoots the same as my other AK's like you said. I think it's bad rep comes from the ones imported a few years ago that was were poorer quality. The 10/63 is thought to be better.

[82Poland]

Which AK is the best ?

[MrBp230]

what do you prefer? ak 47 or ak 74?

[EdeathD]

@MrBp230 AK-47!

[MrBp230]

@EdeathD why the AK 47? didnt the AK74 have a bigger extractor claw for reliability? and doesnt a 5.45mm round tumble more?

[veggiebad]

what does a lightning cut do does it make it lighter?

[GunWebsites]

@veggiebad

just has some amount of less wood

[stuntmanmike37]

@veggiebad The lightning cut saves some weight, however it's primary purpose was for soldiers to quickly tell by sight and feel that it was a -74 and to not try to run the wrong type of ammo in the weapon.

[TheXtro101]

For a regular civilan life,I'll pick an AK-47(or the slight better improve AKM.Both firing 7.62mmx39) for general purpose use(target shooting,home defense, small-medium size games).

But,for actual going to combat war,I'll pick the AK-74 for better accuracy & controllable on full-automatic.

[checkie4ever]

I know its not AK but try some CZ VZ 58.They are really better ones.

[ezekielishappy]

what ak do you like the most?

[GunWebsites]

@ezekielishappy

the next one..

[ezekielishappy]

@GunWebsites HUH?

[kosancicivan]

@ezekielishappy  Serbian M70 (Yugo AK)

[Cruxair]

Pls tell me if you know which one is the best of these , I think the amd

[xXBKawsum96xX]

74 kiks 47 ^ss. This is nothing but, i think Russian guns are better that U.S guns

[keesurt]

@xXBKawsum96xX and that's based on what? arguments? I'd like to know

[xPOSSUM45x]

Which do u prefer, the 47 or the 74?

[sadbutfunny1]

doe anyone use the Stubby grip on their ak?does it get in the way when you load a mag?

[israelll]

I want a Poish Tantal or Yugoslavian Zastava m 70,75.

Thanks for the video.

[acefishfish]

[jakersdaman]

lol at 2:55 hes feeling up the gun

[bestfaneverhere123]

what is the difference between an Ak-47 and a Ak-74?

[dunnboyt]

@bestfaneverhere123 47's shoot 7.63 and the 74's shoot 5.45

[venomouseye]

@dunnboyt i believe u meant 7.62...

[dunnboyt]

@venomouseye yes typo

[juggy444]

the AK made in russia are the real AK

[daonejorge]

why do people hate wasr 10's so much, i love mine

[Gloomshadow1]

@daonejorge wasr had a rough start but the newer ones are better. I got a CAI AMD65..its solid. Fine tapco trigger too.

[jonnychaos313]

is the wasr 10 meaning the century arms brand

and what is the differance between the 47 and 74

[siralexu]

thats weird from what ive seen in romania they all have a wood front grip

[miqp11]

Presents Ak47 collect only in Russia, and all the rest a fake)))

[ferdin12]

why no ak63d?

[giorev33661]

where is the russian ak 74 its the best

[endroo93]

AMD owns. Cause our army uses it! (Uhm, Nope)

[Hatinonthehaters]

If its not made in Russia, its pure shit.

[SeppLainer]

@Hatinonthehaters

LOL? Most Ak47s/74s weren't made in Russia.

[r2d23678]

@Hatinonthehaters not rly

[Hatinonthehaters]

@r2d23678 so what you saying is you rather have a cheap knockoff rather than the real thing? its like saying you want a shitty chingchangchong ipoop thats made in china instead of an Ipod.

[r2d23678]

@Hatinonthehaters nikka pls, I've shot a $400 dollar Ak and it was very reliable an accurate. lol @ thinking Russia has some secret unbelievable tool for making good Ak's.

[TaticoolFirearms]

@Hatinonthehaters ipods are made in china

[FukAllah666]

@Hatinonthehaters you're an ass

[wweironman12XBLGT]

@Hatinonthehaters Not really, the USA can't get any made in Russia anymore, well that's what I heard. But the Norinco AK-47 is really good.

[LouieIn720p]

@wweironman12XBLGT How do you explain Arsenal? Their AKs are used from a Saiga reciever made in Russia at the Izhmash factory...

[GunWebsites]

@LouieIn720p

only one model is based on the saiga (Russian).. most of their stuff is Bulgarian

[Theonlysweetman]

@Hatinonthehaters I disagree, the 2 best builds (sorry I dont know there name) where the arrows in a traingle, one with feathers and one without. The one with feathers was made i russia's main armoury, and the one without was made, within another factory outside Russia, and happens to be the better production model then the one made in Russia.

[MMBNM]

@Hatinonthehaters Krinkov FTW

[deveans]

@Hatinonthehaters NOT TRUE AT ALL. THE BULGARIAN SSR I HAVE IS ON EQUAL PAR OR BETTER THEN THE RUSSIAN ARSENAL I HAVE. IN SEVERAL WAYS. AND WHILE WE'RE AT IT, THE ROMANIAN WASR I HAVE IS A TOUGH, WELL MADE WEAPON. nEVER ANY JAMS,  THEY ARE GOOD GUNS

[LouieIn720p]

@deveans Were you punching the caps lock button while typing this?

[deveans]

@LouieIn720p

yeah i saw that later i had been playing Black OPS and had jammed a key. i get a bit excited by that game

[cCcMo42cCc]

@Hatinonthehaters Well a Yugoslavian one keeps up with the Russian made one

[rzpaintball]

@Hatinonthehaters polytec?

[ryancicocki]

@Hatinonthehaters WHAT ABOUT THE AMERICAN AK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[4302BC]

@Hatinonthehaters and your comment is pure shit.

[GonG108]

@Hatinonthehaters no no my friend i am a native bulgarian and i can tell you the best ones where made in bulgaria .

[VoidOnTuesday]

@Hatinonthehaters Nope, you can get good quality Chinese made and Bulgarian made ones.

[cepomwa]

how can you buy so many rifles?

[whatdafloopyjoop]

whick is better the hungarians or the wasr 10? i just cant decide what i want!

[GunWebsites]

@whatdafloopyjoop

The WASR 10 isn't 'better' than much.. pretty much ANY factory made AK will be better than the WASR-10 IMO

[chimichanga1254]

@GunWebsites do u think a wasr 10 ak is worth the buy

[PRSpl4yer]

@whatdafloopyjoop There's nothing technically wrong with the WASR, just nothing really right with it either. They shoot fine and they're typically reliable, but they're the reason people think AK's are inaccurate.

[Gloomshadow1]

@PRSpl4yer people have always thought the AK "inaccurate". its not though. not really. The AK does exactly what it was made to do, survive a harsh battlefield and kill a man at 250M or closer for as little cost as possible. Mission acomplished. To get it to shoot with more accuracy you will have to sacrifice all of its main strong points to some degree. An Aresnal built AK can shoot a little tighter but not enough to make a real difference IMO.A WASR is "fit for duty" for the average user.

[PRSpl4yer]

@Gloomshadow1 Well it all depends on what your definition of accuracy is. I'm happy with anything that shoots 4 MOA or better, because that's realistic accuracy. People dis AK's and Mini's for not being as accurate as an AR, but honestly theres a difference between shooting on a bench and shooting in combat ;)

[Gloomshadow1]

@PRSpl4yer My sentiments exactly. A 1 MOA rifle is absolutely worthless in combat if it jams when you need it the most. Mikial Kalashnicov said " the best is the enemy of good enough" and what he ment by that was that arms designers always want to build "the best" designs..but all that tight shooting high-tech stuff ends up not being "good enough" bc it fails to endure. But a rifle that is "good enough" to get the job done ALL THE TIME is actually "the best". He was talking to Eugene Stoner! ha

[seribas]

dude your video takes fore fucking ever to load, i have broadband high speed too, wtf am i waiting for ads or what?

[GunWebsites]

@seribas

Yes.. I have control over your download speed..

Here is the "Download Speed" knob right here next to the "More Ads" dial .. let me adjust that for you..

How is the speed now?

[yagossisiht]

@seribas u just have shit internet

[slayer56429]

personally i like the ak 74 because i thinks its a bit stronger in bullet penetration

[AirsoftVeteran96]

im gettin a arsenal and i want to know which to get, a 47 or 74, any thoughts?

[vietnamguy1223]

arent 74s smaller?

[GunWebsites]

@vietnamguy1223

Well the rifles are the same size, but the bullets are a bit smaller in diameter

[ecollins92]

@vietnamguy1223 ammo 47 is 7.62x39 compared to the 74 is 5.45x39

[machinegunmana]

great selection - love that AMD, its my favorite AK variant

[airsoftdovani]

what is the differents between the ak 74 and the ak 47

[esh325]

Which do you prefer? The AK-47 or AK-74? I prefer the AK-47 because of its larger caliber. The Soviets Spetsnaz units use AKM's still because of the larger caliber.

[GunWebsites]

@esh325

I tend to agree, but the 5.45 is growing on me (and my wallet)

[esh325]

@GunWebsites, I wonder why there's so much 5.45x39 surplus?
