So who is making a $600 AK? Mine cost $800+. Don’t take this the wrong way but I think blue metal on wood looks good and the AK doesn’t look good in black on black, especially with looks like AR stock

Damn, so good to see your channel still thriving, love your content! I get so excited to see new content from your channel. Also love my GF3. I've been very curious about that Soviet Arms rail. Thanks for the ideas and God bless you, Rob!
Some people keep talking shit about the PSA GF3s. I have 3 no issues yet for the past 4 yrs. All I up graded was the trigger (ALG), replaced the recoil spring(ALG).
I got a GF3 way back when you did your 5,000 roubd review. I had zero isssues with the rifle itself but the side rail was out of spec and refused to accpet any mounts. I sent it back to PSA and they said that accoeding to thier tests the side rails where fine. I posted a video on TH-cam showing them otherwise. They took the rifle back saying it would take 6-8weeks to have it fixed...I opted to get my money back. Then several months later PSA issues a recall about offspec rails.

Dang I didnt see that recall was issued. I bought the GF3 shortly after Rob posted his 5000 rd rundown too. How common was the problem? Does it mean it just might be difficult to run optics?
I was considering a similar build for my ZPAP M70. I painted it FDE/Brown, 3X ACSS Prism with wrap around rail, Zastava MLOK rail with bipod and vertical fire grip. I am planning to get a side folding adjustable stock after replacing the top cover with a railed hinged one. I love the mix of the best of East and West in a harmonic package which people with an eye for fine engineering and practically can appreciate. Happy Weekend everyone. Keep up the great work Rob!
SPR AK gang. Love to see it. I did a SPR build on my Zastava M90, 4-14x PA scope. Slick setup, heavy but a great shooting rifle, and it works well with 5.56.
Dang you, Rob! You're tempting me to re-SPR my AK. That's exactly how I want to run mine. I bought all the gear to spr my AK. Some from you(wink wink). I just may commit the SPR project again. That's a great rig!
Hmmm...I was contemplating this with my Vepr(that I purchased because of your videos years and years ago). It is accurate and not just "for an AK". Thanks, Rob!
Thx for sharing the build details, Rob. To some it seems like minutiae, but it is helpful I think. 6:21 Even the vaunted and mighty Zenit is not without the limitations. Thanks for sharing!
Great work Rob and Company! I get most of my AK accessories from your akou store! Thank you for your contribution of high value content and products for We The People!” The AK is a firearm for the common man and the one gun an owner can utilize for all tasks!
That's awesome, My GF3 has been set up like this for 5 or 6 years now. Its got an RS Regulate GK rail and RS scope mount with an Atibal 1-8X optic. No can yet but thats the next big purchase Im gonna make for my collection.
Rob Sky, you are a true professional with the AK... the way you use the trigger speaks volumes about how professional you are. Thanks for your videos...let's keep learning
This gives a new meaning to the phrase "taste the rainbow". Lol. That bullet drop looks like a basketball shot at that range. Good shooting my friend! #7.62x39
It’s like shooting a f!cking mortar, using that x39 at extended range lmfao! the round reminds me of those Wiley coyote and road runner cartoons with those acme anvils falling! Lol🤣👍🏻 I dunno I think that 400-500m cap on x39 seems sensible… but out of everyone on guntube, I think robski the one to show us the way to stretch past that. Even if it seems really impractical lol. since we are not all professional marksmen, I would love for you to break down some technique and process of the hows and how you were able to become so efficient at doing mid range work with x39, the arching of the bullet, holdovers, compensating, the overall finessing of the shot. i also would love to see you do some optic reviews and breakdowns- I think your input and analysis and explanation of some of the modern optics out there available to us, especially lpvos would be an invaluable resource, to have someone with your skill and experience testing, reviewing, and analyzing optics on the market-and pushing them to their limit.
Great video you are one hell of a shot! It would be interesting to see what the GF5 can do at that distance with the FN barrel in it. PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN 🙏
I learned more from Rob ski on shooting my ak accurately than any other channel, the first time I hit exactly where I was aiming at yardage I did a little dance.
Love my gf3, probably around 6k rounds deep with not a single malfunction. Front sight is canted, bullet guide has a small amount of wobble (rivet is snug tho) and I had to file a small amount of splash of the bolt carrier tail but otherwise this thing has been phenomenal.
I call that just getting to know her… it’s always fun tinkering with the small things we have to do to get our AK’s to run like machines. I think it makes me appreciate the tool even more that I a had to put a little personal touch and elbow grease into the equation. Maybe it’s just me…
@@Gator69420yea man, still functions flawlessly. I haven’t been running it as often with the current state of 7.62x39 but still runs like a top and nothing weird to report. Congrats on your gf5.
@@ninjaxams cool man thanks for responding! So many different reviews online and can never trust anything someone says especially in today’s world. I went with my gut feeling and got the PSA G5 Life time warranty American made I think a lot of these people Bash PSA due to early on issues that happened years ago and can’t let it go. They’ve def made some bad firearms who hasn’t 🤷🏼♂️but I think I made a good choice! How many rounds you think you got through yours ?
Always good stuff ... Ski is right about 7.62x39. If you shoot it at long range and master wind and crazy drops you can appreciate the flatter shooting cartridges much more. Nice alternative to playing with 22lr.
I apologize in advance if this was covered before and I can't find it. And this is the AK channel not the more precision shootingy VRSC. Use of .22lr rifles at shorter ranges (100-150m) for training? Transferable skills? Transferable bad habits? Thanks for sharing your knowledge Rob.
I preffer to use this setup over 22LR because it still forces me to deal with the recoil management on the top of the wind game. But yeah, from wind point of view, 22LR will take you places as well! ha!
Thanks for making such informative videos, I've been binge watching and what happened to the users guide part 2? I guess You Tube took it down, (The Gun Police)
Rob, I love watching your stuff, especially for your uniquely 'no bullshit' approach. When you make complaints, it can reasonably be assumed that they are legitimate issues. If you say something is good, moreso than most, I'm comfortable trusting something as good to go (at least enough to buy and verify my examples) I'm also incredibly happy that you got me turned on to the PSAKs back during your BR2 review. Got one back then, and haven't looked back. With your GFA prism setup, it's been an absolute gem for a couple of thousand rounds and is my go to SHTF AK (alongside some more NATO centric options)
Rob, can you do a video on the Soviet Arms handguard installation? Other than the shims, any other tips you have? Are the rails performing well for you?
Damn nice setup! As a fellow AK shooter, I to love to "kit out" all my guns. I've got a video of some of my AK setups deep in my Channel videos. I've definitely took some inspiration from your setups.
This is what happens when a rifle is made well for a purpose. AK platform CAN be made to be accurate to fairly long ranges. All that's needed is adjustment of the design in the necessary direction.
Great shooting Rob, always a pleasure seeing you with an ak in hand. Loved the setup and your range looked fun, great idea with the light to show hits on target. Stay happy and healthy Rob.
Hey Rob, is there any chance you could put up a tutorial on how to install the Soviet Arms rail? Im looking at picking one up i see your store has one in stock. Thanks!
I will guide you through it via email when you will be ready. I had some install videos and YT took it down because they don't understand what the handguard is...hands down
I put a surplus Romanian dong furniture set on my Wasr 10/63 and I can’t bring myself to change it up. Has some good trench art carved into the stock and looks awesome with the cheese grater upper handguard. Going to have to get a different AK to make a tactical one 😂 great video as always
