Cool!
I wonder if Saigas can still be gotten. If not, I bet the value of the S12s have went through the roof! (I got mine hehe)
Wolf ammo?
They need to open assembly plants in every state.
That way they can sell to people in the state without federal paperwork.
Boy, that’ll show Putin.
Never mind that the AK is made by just about every communist and former soviet country in the galaxy.
Capitalism wins!.........................
Hmm...I wonder if they can be printed?
Will they still cost 400.00?
I.O., Inc. has already been making AKMs in the USA. There may be others as well. Century Inc. maybe.
Any of you folks heard of the ARAK?
It’s supposed to combine the accuracy of the AR with the reliability of the AK.
I’m looking to build one. They emailed me and said that they sell individual parts.
The folks on the podcasts I listen to absolutely love these rifles.
Century Arms already makes AKs here in the US...

Chortle! Take that, cultural Marxist gun banners! Hoist on the Kalashnikov-designed petard of your hero, Che!
Unless they can find a way to produce a reliable stamped rifle with mil-spec CHF barrels, they wont really bring anything new to the US market.
If they’re going to make an American model AK-47, I think their best bet would be to go for high quality precision engineering.
Depending on the alloys used, they could make a “gold” edition much better than the best quality out there; and then using advanced materials to make a “platinum” version. It would be extremely expensive, but those in that market range are pretty indifferent to cost.
It would also likely need very high grade ammunition as well.
Got 3 AK47’s just before the Maryland Gun ban kicked in October 2013. If they had passed no law, I probably would have only gotten one.
Ummm, we already do that doofus.
As a collector I want original.
I built one on a receiver made in Cleveland Ohio.
AK-47s: Soon to be made in USA
The world truly has turned upside down.
AK’s are made in Zastava Serbia with 1.5 receivers.
Everything else you can keep, that goes for Izhmash too.
Its no accident that MSM outlets always blur the distinction between the true AK-47 and the various semi-auto only variants. The rifles in question are no more AK-47’s than the AR-15 at Wal-Mart is an M-16.
Plenty of the less stupid reporters and probably many of the editors understand the difference, but they don’t care because it doesn’t help them spread their propaganda.
