Sako M92S based on the AK
Am Shooting Journal ^ | 2/9/2017 | J Hines

Larry Vickers gets a chance to take this ultra-rare Sako M92S Rifle down range, which was based on the Soviet AK and Valmet Rifles.

The semi-automatic only Sako M92S rifle fires the 7.62x39mm cartridge. This model has a folding stock, a grenade launcher adapter and gas cut off switch. With many other add-ons, this rifle with a milled receiver is quite the shooter. The magazine release is very slick.

According to Larry, the shooting feels soft and thinking that the Fin’s did not overload the gas like the AK-47, most AK’s are overloaded with gas.

This sweet-shooting Finnish rifle is given a great workout. Witness what Larry Vickers has to say while shooting this Sako M92S rifle.

I’d hate to go prone in the dirt with that flash hider.

Ya wonder if it isn’t 180 degrees off. Still a dust storm, though.

Had an M76 in 5.56mm back in the 1980’s. Traded it for a Clayco AK. Both are out of sight now.

My Golani sporter fills in for the Valmet now.
