That wood grip looks homemade, like 9th grade shop class.
that's a lie. they use the kids that got kept back in middle school because they failed 8th grade wood shop. 9th graders are too expensive
It's an upgrade from smelly men with beards building them in a cave with a campfire
Still looks beautiful
Looks like the shitty wood (pine grade 2) I use at work.
Love your tabletop reviews. That gas piston is crazy small. Looking forward to see how it runs.
Nice. I would love to own a couple.
It's a fun little gun.
"With all AKs, there is always the question... will it AK?" -TheAKGuy
I'm buying my first Ak which will be a mini so I'm learning. Appreciate it
Check out either the magazine article on the three Romanian Dracos or my recent AK pistol roundup article over on Tactical Life's website.
That's an expensive 🎤 you got man. I literally heard your stomach growl 😂
Would be cool if they sold a folding brace.do you think the buffer would be a weak link?
I bought one and it was sending rounds out sideways at a distance of about 3 yards. It also was failing to scoop new rounds from the top of the magazine in every different magazine I tried. I returned it for another mini Draco. The second one I had would scoop ammo fine, and was fairly accurate, but it wouldn't fully go into battery. The machining inside the bolt carrier or on the bolt seemed to be imperfect in a way that wasn't allowing for it to fully rotate/lock into battery during the last 1/4-1/2 inch of it's motion forwards. Eventually I bought a replacement bolt and bolt carrier. This ended up solving the problem. Very frustrated with how everyone always says that AKs always run fine because "They're AKs". This was the exact opposite in my experience. Every AK I've owned has been a princess, and only works when it feels like it. I've had a cheap old AR for 5 years and I barely clean it but it never once jammed. I've tried/owned 3 different AKs and they've all had nonstop issues. Just glad it's working now. It's a great gun when it works.
I LOVE MY MINI DRACO, perfect size for me . I would suggest a sling plate between the grip of your are not comfortable with the grip being squared off on the back of the gun.
Where did you buy yours? I'm from comifornia so doubt I could get my hands on one.
Just order a mini for my birthday. I'm super excited for this to come in. Next on my list is the micro! Gotta have them both!!!
Pick up the October/November issue of Tactical Life Magazine when it comes out. My full article including comparisons and contrast of the three will be in there.
@@GBGuns okay will do!
Just got mine last christmas... a mini... love it... how'z urs holingbup
I prefer booster cones on shorty ak's over flash hiders.
The obvious is it has shorter fangs, but just as deadly and fire breathing.
These are so awesome. Man i love america!!!
Check out the November/December Issue of Combat Handguns Magazine for the article I reviewed these in.
Some *very* aggressive checkering on that fore-grip couldn't hurt...just say'n.
The Draco AK9 is really nice too.
I love my NAK9, but they're made in a different factory than the actual Draco and WASRs. (made in Nova Modul instead of Cugir)
@@kcghostt Thanks, didn't know that!
SLR Rifleworks is the best for the Draco
What is your fav out of the Dracos?
I love my mini, but it’s the only Draco I own.
I’m thinking about re staining the hand guard, maybe a Russian red?
So far the Mini. The Micro is very cool, but with my larger hands a little risky. We'll chrono and group before our final videos come out.
Graham Baates yo bro you never did the Draco chronos ???
Yes we did. The article was in Tactical Life Magazine
Get a Ace or Stormwerkz adapter ASAP.
When 😂they AK round hits your back it won’t be 9th grade 😂
We need to think of a way to make regular handguard sets for mini draco I hate my hotdog bun handguard
Check out SLR
What’s the best Draco to get
Does anyone know if the mini uses a traditional ak47 bcg with the exception of the piston? I'm wanting to swap it for a full auto one because I've heard the fostech echo triggers require it in AKs. Thanks for any help anyone can provide
Yes they are all the same, just shorter pistons
@@GBGuns thanks, great video btw and happy holidays!
I just bought a mini and it didn’t have a recoil buffer block in it. Just ordered it. Would that cause any damage, or not allow it to function properly?
I don't think it would cause damage. You may want to check with Century, maybe they changed something since this video was done, for example smaller gas port might eliminate the need for a buffer.
@@GBGunsits not a buffer
aye
Bro use the bolt cuts to open gas tubes lol
M95 pap ?
“Optimistic 500m mark”🤣🤣😂😂
I know you said pistol multiple times but I was wondering if a draco still abides by the 21 year old age limit for pistols or if it’s considered a rifle at gun shops and you can purchase at 18? I haven’t found any information online.
Yes, it's a pistol.
It’s a pistol bro. Definitely not a rifle
Pistol less than 16 inch is not a rifle
My top metal piece keeps poppin off after I dissembled it
4:51 what’s this part is ? I’m trying to look this up
It's effectively a recoil buffer
@@GBGuns i cannot find it
Is there an link i can buy it ?
@@lilripstadamac804 it's against TH-cam rules to link to safety parts, but if you contact Century Arms you can probably find one.
I will replace that wood part with aluminum , skeletonize it and have it tough black anodize for better look. Nice little firearm.
Except that aluminum handguards get hot on AKs!
Of course It'll get insulated .
do a cleaning videoooo
Why? It's just like field stripping, except you wipe or scrub away any carbon. It the surface shows wear apply light lubricant. There isn't really a secret-special method to cleaning. Remove what shouldn't be there, lubricate where it's not happy.
Go check out my insane MINI DRACO build
I went hard
Her name is sand storm
I also got more guns there that I’m fixing
A lot
They all have a theme name
the wood handguard is crap but otherwise l love my draco. replace the cheap wood with midwest industries railed hanguard and you'll be happier than willie nelson on 420 day
Check out SLR
My mini came out the box with a defective dust cover that pops off after 2 shots. 1000 dollar POS. And they won't answer the fukn phone in Vt
Truck gun?
No way
You’ll blow out your ears unless you run a suppressor installed on it.
I'm way more accurate shooting this like a handgun lmao
