I like the look of it and would welcome a straight pull version this side of the pond (unlikely).

May offend AK purists but I like the Magpul stuff for the AK's as well.

I'm probably missing something very obvious, but what are the batteries for? any????

I don't like it, looks like it has a open slot up the left side for crap to get in.

Looks awful :bad:

Kalashnikov USA were, before the sanctions against Russia, nothing more than a distributor for Izhmash/KalashnikovConcern products in the same way Rusmilitary is over here.

AK & Scar had too much Stolichnaya & what should have never happen, actually did take place in the bogs of some crappy US dive-bar. They ended humping each other & the result is really not very pretty ... :bad:
