That is THE farthest and HARDEST i have ever seen a rifle extract a cartridge!! that alone could kill someone! I like the gun, the stock is a bit long for my tastes but its collapsible so that doesnt matter anyways!!!
kak krasni!!!!! beautiful weapon you have there comrade... i had a very large collection but i was burglarized and every single weapon i had was taken from the locked case i had them in... they used a glass cutter and took every weapon i had, over 4,500 dollars worth of assault rifles (AK47, SKS Jugoslav, and AR-10) as well as glock 17 and glock 21, taurus .40 and .45 short ... i was devastated, i didn't care that they stole my TVs and Blu-Ray Player... where did u get the ak74?
@Davidkira1990 LOL! No, but thanks. I don't think I would do very well since I have more ppl hating this rifle project than liking it. No matter. It was fun.
Just one question - did you buy it at store or it's illegal posession right here. Cause in russia ppl not allowed to buy even pistol, let alone AK-74.
Nice remodeling on that bro, that stock is beast. tell me how accurate it is when you sight it in because mine has a half inch grouping. It seams like your shells eject farther then mine, is that something you altered?
@marsproductions1 Yeah, it does help w/recoil, however; that was not my motivation to use this type of stock. The "OEM" stock was/is way too short for my length of pull. Using the collapseable stock fully extended let's me shoot the rifle more comfortably and maintain better control. Additionally, in the fully collapsed position, I can still shoot the rifle accurately & comfortably. Hope that helps if your on the fence about whether, or not, to try one. Thanks!
Since the Red-dot sight is mounted on the rail that is attached to the top removable cover, wouldn't you have to re-sight after every rifle cleaning? I have an AMD-65 and that top cover moves around sometimes giving me the imperssion that a topmount rail is not a good idea. I am thinking about going with the rail that replaces the gas tube.
it does have a firing pin in it..thought it was a display gun at first:) love the supersonic crack..sweet rifle,looks like fun to shoot,nicely done on the AK bro..
@phishst1cks LOL! Thanks, brother! Yes, it really does shoot! LMAO! It's a blast to shoot. I plan to make a lot more shooting vids with it in the spring. I'm stocking in the ammo over the winter months.
That's a mighty nice rifle you've got there, damn. I don't really know anything about firearms but it looks like she's very stable and easy to operate.
@MrOrbitz89 Thanks! Yes, it is easy to operate, and the recoil is very controllable. All AKs were designed that way so that anyone could shoot them making anyone a potential soldier if needed.
Please tell me 2 things, What is that long rail system on top the brand and where i can get it. Second what brand is your stock and where can i get it. Thanks and amazing build man! I am slowly building my ak to look like that.
@grant227 Thanks! If you go the video of the rifle posted on my channel, I have included a parts list in the video description box that gives all the accessories manufacture. Don't forget to subscribe while you're on my channel page, also!
@valakin As I recall, it all added up to around $600 +/-. It's been a while now and I really don't remember the exact amount. It was fun doing the project, though. Thanks for your comment!
could you imagine doing that in a shtf scenario? lol that would be fucked up if you got one instead of the other person because you forgot to take off the safety.
i do that shit sometimes though, as i think many people do.
@f8talh8red I know, man. I was nervous not having fired the gun before. I didn't know if was going to run, or blow my face off, so I forgot the safety. I thought I recovered well, though. You? Thanks!
recovered awesome dude! those mom hands didnt hinder the recovery also, so thats good to know for future tactical runs lol oh yeah and make sure NOT to blow your face off! lmao isnt that like the first rule of shooting or somethin? other than dont put the muzzle up your butt! j/k
@f8talh8red Thanks! Yeah, the "Mom" hands do have their merit, I suppose. Ha! I could be wrong, but I distinctly recall reading the manual on page #6, sub section "F", paragraph .IV, it clearly states that there is to absolutely no inserting of the muzzle into, or near, the arse! Look it up!
Now that we've cleared that up, did you get the friend invite I sent you? If so, can you please approve it so I don't have to approve your comments on my videos? Your comments are always welcome! See inbox!
@f8talh8red Dude, sorry, I wasn't trying to be anal about the invite. Youtube's system isn't perfect, I guess, because I'm still having to approve your comments. WTF? I don't get it...maybe it'll take one of these days. Thanks!
oh, i know, it just seemed like you were getting a little annoyed.
i dont know what the hell is going on. i fricken hate how glitchy computers can be. i wish they made one that just worked how its supposed to all the time.
@TehBloodyYank556 No, not really. I concentrated on figureing out how to co-witness instead. Besides, I knew I wanted to keep the option of using the iron sights if I changed my mind later on.
not to sound like a douche, but that sounds like a horrible idea!
ive heard of people doing that with their ar's, but that was so they didnt have to buy a new low pro gas block, and they could run their rail system or ff right over the top of it.
Has anyone tried any Wolf 5.45x39? I ran through a box of 1000 and about 3-5% were over charged rounds and the casing had to be removed with a cleaning rod. I don't know if i got a bad batch or Wolf hasn't put too much time into their 5.45 round. Please let me know your experiences.
@kg9pz - there really isnt a reason to. Maybe buy a couple of boxes of the hornady 5.45 for grins and giggles, but other than that, just stack the surplus deep.
@Trygar1987 - wolf is shit. Well, the old wolf is anyway. the new WPA stuff is made by barnaul and is pretty damned good. The surplus stuff is the best ammo you can get for 5.45. outside of the really expensive hornady loads.
@smokybob63 Thanks for the sub and comment! I have shot over 550 rds of the Russian surplus ammo without any issues what so ever. The 2160 rd case is the only way to go. I get it from Aimsurplus. You'll be just fine with it.
@smokybob63 Two spam cans come in a wooden crate w/a can opener for $259.00 + shipping to your location (prices will vary with distance), but they have a shipping estimator in the shopping cart. After you add the amount you want to the cart, just enter your zip code for the rate.
@FirearmsPlus Thanks! I had some reservations about shooting it since I had no idea if it would cycle, or not. My somewhat nervous condition clouded my thinking and I forgot to release the safety! But, as you can see, it ran without a hitch. The controllability is related to the 5.45 X 39 caliber. I am very impressed with this round right now.
To many people in America like this gun now,an bought one,an now the was cheaper ammo is going to go way up an price,an run out,and the not produced domestically5.45x39round will be hard to come across.I Still think the round is better then the223/5.56x45for many reasons but the AK maker didn't like this gun he said should have stuck with the round that has it all7.62x39which has more punch power close range.I say longer range this is better,an the.223 is just a weaker round shots through less
@AGeekWithAShotgun Thanks! I've seen some 74s on here that have a few tactical doo-dads on them, but I thought I'd do one of my own. Glad you like it and thanks for the comment!
The rail over the dust cover is made by DPH Arms. I bought it at carolina shooters supply dot com. They also have an installation video on it as well. It's solid as a rock on the rifle and a great optics/accessory mounting platform. Highly recommended.
@TacticalGunChannel Did you violate the TOS? Maybe email YouTube and tell'em to fix it!! I've watched a few of your vids through the search feature, but it would be nice to have them all in one place for easier viewing. Let me know if/when it gets fixed, k?
nice....where u shooting fmj? it sucks cause the ranges where im from only allow hollow points or soft points on there range so i only shot 300 rds of tula hp thru my 74 and no problems....
@TacticalGunChannel Yes, it was FMJ, but I was not at a range. I was on private property, so no issues. I can shoot whatever I want there. Same around here with the ranges, at least the indoor ones. NO FMJ STEEL CORE! It puts holes in their backstops and they don't like that. I'm getting ready to order 2160 rounds of ammo (milsurp) and a new rifle. Can you guess what it will be? Stay tuned..............So, did you find out why your channel is not available? Maybe have someone else try to see it?
