Hi, sootch00. I remember the look your rifle with the white eagle emblem - love it. I do much appreciate your content and your sense of humor even more. So no wonder I'm a long-time subscriber of your channel. Stay safe.
Hi, Being you assembled them, if the Rear Sight Block is leaning to one side when the rifle was assembled, do the front ears of the optic rail need to be installed into the side grooves at that same angle/lean of the sight block? If so, does it still lock onto the rear tab properly? Or would you put it on level to where the sight angle will not be aligned with the rail, for it to lock onto the rear tab more level? The RSB (Rear Sight Block) angle "appears" to dictate the angle of the optic rail, and upper handguard rail also and being an AK basically, I doubt having a slightly crooked RSB is unheard of for these, but just wondering (for a friend) what you guys did when Installing the rails if that block was leaning when putting these on. Hope to hear back!
3 world in this time xD where? and this stereotypes with all fat americans ... what I read comments sometimes think that one exclaims the other who is more idiots xD
Hol' up, you are allowed to own guns in Poland. Actually, next to Switzerland Poland has like the least gun regulation in Europe. You can own AKs, ARs, handguns etc
Not just in the USA. The MSBS isn't making much headway in Poland either and their military just ordered over 17k more Beryl rifles last year with deliveries continuing through 2019. I am wondering, is the MSBS Poland's SCAR?
Polish military units and equipment were always top notch and world class. The only problem was being outnumbered by enemies. But polish army was the only one in history that succeeded to conquer Moscow.
It has different names you can call it ,,FB" ,,FB Radom" (it's better simple FB might be confusing) or ,,Radom's Archer" eventually ,,Radomian Archer" but never ,,fabryka broni" as previous commenter said it just translates to guns factory.
Vice blocks are easy to not mess up and yes they make a good one but I have seen promags and tapco mags fail so many times. I had a friend who sent his ar back to Daniel Defense twice due to failures then he tried a Pmag and realized it was the promags choking up his gun.
I am happy I was able to pick up some 5.56 Beyrl mags a few years back on Gunbroker. Awesome 5.56 AK mags, probably the best money can buy. I am lucky they and Bulgy Circle 10s work like a charm in my 223 Saiga.
Now available in the UK as the Radom Beryl M22 in 22lr. Looks exactly the same as its bigger calibre brother but with a lighter bolt. A great companion for my SIG 522.
Im a polish soldier. Lately we had old used ak's so we were glad and actually looking forward toget beryl as soon as possible. Unfortunately now when we are fully equipped with those opinion is solid. This rifle is a piece of crap. It has many disadvantages but mostly the lenght of it is the main issue. Also it has many sharp elements that hurts your back when you carry it. It is very easy to make it dirty in the field. And much more difficult to disamble into pieces. Wish to have ak back
The full name of the Beryl manufacturer is: Fabryka Broni "Łucznik" Radom - which stands for: Firearms Factory "Archer" Radom (Radom is city). Before that it was part of the bigger company named: Zakłady Metalowe "Łucznik" (Metal Works "Archer") which was famous in Polad for production not only weapons but also home sewing machines.
It's "AK-PLATFORM-BASED" assault rifle, but - honestly - it has very few things still in common with the "true" (..."original"...) Ak. This is one of the reasons people were discouraged by its price! I mean! - A 1000 BUCKS FOR AN "Ak"?? That "platform" cannot simply be improved anymore. The only solution was to produce something NEW - so we came forward with the MSBS. ...and something tells that OVERTIME the new MSBS WILL become a TRUE MARKET-HIT! Greeting fellas! Have a nice day! :)
oh yeah tht aswell^ but i heard from some Swiss and Italians said tht recent made Norinco and Polys aren't wht they used to be during their pre-ban glories. You can still get some solid ones but really depend on which norinco/poly factory they came from
in Poland, a company called wbp uses that same rail section, rear stock setup and almost identical safety lever for their tactical 7.62x39mm AKM rifles. Rob ski tested a standard AKM build from them with really good results.
you sure of that? the MSBS appears to have stalled in the last 2 years. The military has yet to adopt it, but did just place another large order for Beryls and Mini Beryls just this past June.

An steel rifle like ak is expensive at 900$ but a steel pistol like Sig p226 at 1200$ or 1911 at 1500-3000 $ are not ? I mean why the heck are pistols so expensive its less steel, less reliable, weaker etc pistols should be like 150-300$ ...
From a consumer standpoint, most gun owners don't like that AK's aren't $250-300 anymore. Inflation and economic trends makes the $250-300 cheap AK's back then worth approx. $500 nowadays, and with WASR's / Yugo's costing around $600, the prices haven't risen all that much. People just think they have because it physically looks like it costs more. In my opinion, I tell people to suck it up. You usually find the same people complaining about a $800-1000 AK are also the same people that will build a $3000 AR on top of having other AR's in the $1000-2000 range. As far as pistols go, they cost a lot more on a manufacturing level because of the usage of very small, highly detailed parts made in CNC/ Milling machines. If you look at most expensive pistols on the market, they are VERY complicated. Rifles in general are pretty simple and use much larger, less detailed parts. If you look at the barebones surplus Russian pistols which used fewer parts compared to something like a Sig, you'll see why they are $250-300 and not $1200.
yeah, Radom is the city, Łucznik (Archer) is the name of the factory, Beryl is the model of this particular firearm. Also, legendary VIS35 was made by Łucznik (Archer).
I'd recommend you look at the Zastava M90NP, up until recently they were on Atlantic Firearms for $600. It's a 5.56mm AK that takes AR magazines, it has the adapter. Rob Ski reviewed it and it did very well in his test.
Hey MAC. Just wanted to let you know that I'm a firearm enthusiast from CA. I have been interested in firearms from a young age due to a father that had a collection who taught me the respect that comes with owning/operating one. I follow every big channel and no one has the level of knowledge and enthusiasm that you do as well as the ability to inform an audience. I'll continue to watch your videos and enjoy the time I spend doing so. Thanks!
Considering that the Valmet M76 type rifle (stamped receiver version of the Valmet M62) is no longer in production (Sako bought Valmet's firearms division completely in 1992 after gaining controlling stake-holding in 1987, with Sako now being a division of Beretta), the Radom Beryl is the only really huge high quality stamped AKM based rifle in production outside of the custom sporter conversions (Veprs and Saigas for example). But there's good new/bad news on that. Bad news: as Tim mentioned in video, IO isn't importing the Archer/Beryl rifles anymore, and haven't for at least a year or two. Good news: FB Radom with the support of Ted Marshall as advisor has been trying to set up a factory in Texas to make Beryls in 5.56 NATO and 7.62 Russian for the US market. Mixed news: Longer term, Radom USA hopes to make all the rifles and all their parts in the US to get around 922r/the '89 Bush Assault Weapons Ban. Shorter term, though, Radom has had tons of issues with getting fully licensed to sell such rifles with the ATF being a pain in their rears with 922r (early rifles were intended to use Polish made parts to launch sales/production). Ironically, IWI never had those issues that I know of (aside from the third pinhole on the Galil Ace pistols), and the US Ace rifles have a mix of US and Israeli parts made by IWI. Also, I don't know of any news of Radom's US division starting up soon, either.
@@TheREALLibertyOrDeath It never happened, but in 2021 AOA and Atlantic finally were able to start getting them and they've been hugely popular ever since... They have the Type C furniture/accessories also, but a lot of the parts go out of stock quickly. Apparently FB has moved onto producing the "GROT" for mil use, so now the Beryl is strictly a commercial offering, which many feel will be phased out of production altogether before long. They have 3 versions...
I had a chance to shoot 1 of these last week on a trip to Poland. After shooting this and then moving on to an AK 47 the difference was night and day. Really enjoyed popping off some rounds with this excellent weapon.
I didn't see this in the first page of comments, so forgive me if it has already been posted. All Archers seem to be 2012 or 2013 manufacture, with I.O. bringing them in through at least 2014. They were still selling them as recently as this year, but from what they've said those were older imports that they just now got round to modifying for high-cap & 922(r). Ones with a serial over say 500 (give or take) came with the Gen 4 rail system and collapsible stock. The final 150 or so also had the fire selector on the left side, but it was purely cosmetic. In all, 700 Archers were imported by I.O. Radom-USA has hit a couple major snags, and they are not sure when (if?) they will finally be up and running. So for now, the Archer is the only semi Beryl in the USA.On a personal note, the Archer is one amazing gun and a lot of fun! I am very glad you chose to revisit it here. As to the ProMag, we had one come in the store that broke the first time we tried inserting it into a VEPR 1V's magwell. The front tab neatly snapped off in a perfect square shape, taking the entire front of the body with it.For anyone thinking about an Archer, get one if you can and love smooth shooting AKs, cheers.
Panie i Panowie zdobycie pozwolenia na broń u nas jest tak trudne i kosztowne jak zrobienie prawka kat.C. Mi to zajęło 3 miesiące(2017). Zapiszcie się do stowarzyszenia kolekcjonerów, pobierzcie aplikację NTS Quiz i uczcie się przepisów, wystarczy chcieć... tylko trzeba chcieć!
Zgadza się! Wygląda na to, że łatwiej jest biadolić i czerpać wiedzę z memów niż wysilić się na wpisanie w google "jak zrobić pozwolenie na broń". Z drugiej strony to cieszę się, że ludzie, którzy są za głupi by korzystać z google, nie mają pozwolenia na broń.
Man, the wear those Polish military rifles have after years of soldiering is just gorgeous.The light silvering on all edges where the finish has been worn off...I want a rifle that looks like THAT.
Mac, I love my Vepr .223 rifle from Copper Customs. I added a bullet guide and the Bulgarian Circle 10 mags work great. I am working on a replacement follower for 5.45 AK mags, to have 5.56 ammo feed without issue. I will post video on my channel as soon as I've tested the mags. I wish one could ad the Polish Beryl rail onto another AK, like a Vepr. I don't mind modding my rear sight block. There needs to be a screw that has the post attached I some fashion, to lock the rear of the Bery rail to a standard AK, like a Vepr.
Hey for the top rail install, what I do for mine to make it go in easy is: Fold the rear sight forward, put the front part of the rail in the notches and push it up/forward, put in dust cover, and finally drop and lock the rail. Wont damage any part of the rail or firearm from squeezing it on and off
Considering all the AK variants you've tested/shot so far, what would be your thoughts on a currently available 'best buy' in a low-cost, durable, accurate AK in the under $600 range(IF there is such a critter?)? One requirement would be a side mount for sights either on the wpn or available as an option. Not all of us can afford the $1K rifles or even the $800 ones..
OK, $600 was a working number... so maybe $800 would be a better cost? I'm looking for a truck-gun but will shoot it a lot for proficiency. Would I be better off building up a rifle? NOT looking for bells & whistles galore. Or, would one of the Chinese Type 56 SKS's coming in be more in line with what I want?
People who say that people in Poland can't own guns are WRONG! Getting a license takes a while but once you have you can get yourself a Beryl, an AR-15 and pretty much any gun. There are a few restrictions like the amount of guns you can buy with a certain type of license however that can be increased pretty easily, you also can't have full-autos and .50 cals unless you spend some more time and money to get a license that we like to call "pełna kolekcjonerka" which translates to "a full collector's license", then you have almost no limits(there's still your budget). If you don't want a firearm that requires a license you can always buy a black powder muzzle loader or a revolver without any license or just an air gun. The gun related laws are pretty good here, there is just way too many people that have no idea about the law and just heard that guns in Poland are illegal and without doing any fact-checking they go around spreading this bullshit causing other people to do they same and then they even complain the very few people are armed in the country. If instead of spreading this bullshit they would just get a license, show how easy it is and encourage other people to do the same the country could be with the most guns/100 people since here we have much better laws than in many other parts of the Europe.
Very nice to hear you have very good firearms laws. However, when I read your text I made a "small" error: "If you don't want a firearm that requires a licence you can always buy a black market.. oops!! A black powder muzzle loader etc." I think it's time to go bed this evening !! I hope you will enjoy your excellent hobby!
Hey Tim I think you are using the Podavach mag loader upside down. In the video you're using it with the magazine to the right and the channel thing to your left, so you end up having to use your left hand to slide the rounds to the channel. In your case since you apparently are right handed, the magazine should be to your left, and you use your right hand to slide the rounds to the loading channel, then use your right hand again to use the block to push them. Also, kudos to M13 , you just showed accidentaly that the product is also left-handed friendly.
One mistake in this video. This is Beryl, not Archer. Archer means Łucznik in Polish. This is name of company which made this awesome gun 😅. Greatings from Poland 💪🏽
+Spyder they have a decent selection and prices, ive ordered several guns and accessories and theyre always quick to ship and respond to emails promptly, i highly recommend

Would love to see these imports make a come back.
Hey MAC. Just wanted to let you know that I'm a firearm enthusiast from CA. I have been interested in firearms from a young age due to a father that had a collection who taught me the respect that comes with owning/operating one. I follow every big channel and no one has the level of knowledge and enthusiasm that you do as well as the ability to inform an audience. I'll continue to watch your videos and enjoy the time I spend doing so. Thanks!
+Taylor Burgess Thank you Taylor.
That a sweet little rifle, more of a AR fan but I like that AK in .556. The optics rail is the deal sealer.
Great information, nice rifle.
Considering that the Valmet M76 type rifle (stamped receiver version of the Valmet M62) is no longer in production (Sako bought Valmet's firearms division completely in 1992 after gaining controlling stake-holding in 1987, with Sako now being a division of Beretta), the Radom Beryl is the only really huge high quality stamped AKM based rifle in production outside of the custom sporter conversions (Veprs and Saigas for example).
But there's good new/bad news on that. Bad news: as Tim mentioned in video, IO isn't importing the Archer/Beryl rifles anymore, and haven't for at least a year or two. Good news: FB Radom with the support of Ted Marshall as advisor has been trying to set up a factory in Texas to make Beryls in 5.56 NATO and 7.62 Russian for the US market.
Mixed news: Longer term, Radom USA hopes to make all the rifles and all their parts in the US to get around 922r/the '89 Bush Assault Weapons Ban. Shorter term, though, Radom has had tons of issues with getting fully licensed to sell such rifles with the ATF being a pain in their rears with 922r (early rifles were intended to use Polish made parts to launch sales/production). Ironically, IWI never had those issues that I know of (aside from the third pinhole on the Galil Ace pistols), and the US Ace rifles have a mix of US and Israeli parts made by IWI.
Also, I don't know of any news of Radom's US division starting up soon, either.
Any updates on this?

It never happened, but in 2021 AOA and Atlantic finally were able to start getting them and they've been hugely popular ever since...
They have the Type C furniture/accessories also, but a lot of the parts go out of stock quickly.
Apparently FB has moved onto producing the "GROT" for mil use, so now the Beryl is strictly a commercial offering, which many feel will be phased out of production altogether before long.
They have 3 versions...
I had a chance to shoot 1 of these last week on a trip to Poland. After shooting this and then moving on to an AK 47 the difference was night and day. Really enjoyed popping off some rounds with this excellent weapon.
Nice big ol magazine release on that rifle.
I didn't see this in the first page of comments, so forgive me if it has already been posted.
All Archers seem to be 2012 or 2013 manufacture, with I.O. bringing them in through at least 2014.
They were still selling them as recently as this year, but from what they've said those were older imports that they just now got round to modifying for high-cap & 922(r).
Ones with a serial over say 500 (give or take) came with the Gen 4 rail system and collapsible stock. The final 150 or so also had the fire selector on the left side, but it was purely cosmetic.
In all, 700 Archers were imported by I.O.
Radom-USA has hit a couple major snags, and they are not sure when (if?) they will finally be up and running. So for now, the Archer is the only semi Beryl in the USA.On a personal note, the Archer is one amazing gun and a lot of fun! I am very glad you chose to revisit it here.
As to the ProMag, we had one come in the store that broke the first time we tried inserting it into a VEPR 1V's magwell. The front tab neatly snapped off in a perfect square shape, taking the entire front of the body with it.For anyone thinking about an Archer, get one if you can and love smooth shooting AKs, cheers.
Only 700, glad I picked one up when they were available
Kurwa.

Są tylko trzy kraje który produkują kałasznikowy najlepiej: Rosja, Polska, i w Serbii
I remember in88at the gun&knife show. Brand new sks w/extras(pistol grip, collapsible wire stock, 30rd clip,& last of all the bayonet.) $89
Jak to miło jak w tych komentarzach tak łechtają nasze rozbuchane, polskie ego... Jak chcemy być na prawdę wielcy to więcej pokory rodacy!
I really wish someone would start importing these again. I'd buy one as soon as I could.
HEY, respect Polish weapons
That is a civil version because military version have fire selector on the left side, you can pick full auto, single or three round series.
Panie i Panowie zdobycie pozwolenia na broń u nas jest tak trudne i kosztowne jak zrobienie prawka kat.C. Mi to zajęło 3 miesiące(2017). Zapiszcie się do stowarzyszenia kolekcjonerów, pobierzcie aplikację NTS Quiz i uczcie się przepisów, wystarczy chcieć... tylko trzeba chcieć!
Zgadza się!
Wygląda na to, że łatwiej jest biadolić i czerpać wiedzę z memów niż wysilić się na wpisanie w google "jak zrobić pozwolenie na broń". Z drugiej strony to cieszę się, że ludzie, którzy są za głupi by korzystać z google, nie mają pozwolenia na broń.
Czy żeby zrobić prawko kat.C musze zapisywać sie do stowarzyszenia i i płacić składki?
I like that the stock is only collapsible and not side folding. Unfolding the stock first could waste valuable seconds in a firefight.
Смотришь такой видео и внезапно "Подавач") Just sitting and watching MACs video and suddenly "podavach")) Greetings from UA!
Дякуємо!
Thanks! :)
Man, the wear those Polish military rifles have after years of soldiering is just gorgeous.The light silvering on all edges where the finish has been worn off...I want a rifle that looks like THAT.
It's funny, AK guys like the worn look. AR guys would offer you less money for a distressed rifle. :)
Military Arms Channel Worn ARs look beautiful, too. To each their own, though. I'd definitely pay well for a beautifully worn milsurp rifle.
cool video! big fan :)
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Mac, I love my Vepr .223 rifle from Copper Customs. I added a bullet guide and the Bulgarian Circle 10 mags work great. I am working on a replacement follower for 5.45 AK mags, to have 5.56 ammo feed without issue. I will post video on my channel as soon as I've tested the mags. I wish one could ad the Polish Beryl rail onto another AK, like a Vepr. I don't mind modding my rear sight block. There needs to be a screw that has the post attached I some fashion, to lock the rear of the Bery rail to a standard AK, like a Vepr.
It's from "Łucznik" [woo-ch-nee-ck]
Hey for the top rail install, what I do for mine to make it go in easy is:
Fold the rear sight forward, put the front part of the rail in the notches and push it up/forward, put in dust cover, and finally drop and lock the rail. Wont damage any part of the rail or firearm from squeezing it on and off
Aaahh, Good choice Man :)
And one word of explanation: military version of this gun is named Beryl. Civilian version of this gun (only single shooting) is named Radom-Sport.
Yeah polish rifle ... maybe It’s good but I still prefer AR/M4 type guns ; p
The Beryl is the hands down best Kalashnikov ever made.
Considering all the AK variants you've tested/shot so far, what would be your thoughts on a currently available 'best buy' in a low-cost, durable, accurate AK in the under $600 range(IF there is such a critter?)? One requirement would be a side mount for sights either on the wpn or available as an option. Not all of us can afford the $1K rifles or even the $800 ones..
Under $600 makes it impossible to get a good rifle. You can get a working rifle, but if you shoot it a lot you'll likely find it won't hold up.
OK, $600 was a working number... so maybe $800 would be a better cost? I'm looking for a truck-gun but will shoot it a lot for proficiency. Would I be better off building up a rifle? NOT looking for bells & whistles galore. Or, would one of the Chinese Type 56 SKS's coming in be more in line with what I want?

Why don't you just get an AR? You can get a decent one for the price range you specified.
Look at DDI. Making solid AKs for around $800
People who say that people in Poland can't own guns are WRONG! Getting a license takes a while but once you have you can get yourself a Beryl, an AR-15 and pretty much any gun. There are a few restrictions like the amount of guns you can buy with a certain type of license however that can be increased pretty easily, you also can't have full-autos and .50 cals unless you spend some more time and money to get a license that we like to call "pełna kolekcjonerka" which translates to "a full collector's license", then you have almost no limits(there's still your budget). If you don't want a firearm that requires a license you can always buy a black powder muzzle loader or a revolver without any license or just an air gun. The gun related laws are pretty good here, there is just way too many people that have no idea about the law and just heard that guns in Poland are illegal and without doing any fact-checking they go around spreading this bullshit causing other people to do they same and then they even complain the very few people are armed in the country. If instead of spreading this bullshit they would just get a license, show how easy it is and encourage other people to do the same the country could be with the most guns/100 people since here we have much better laws than in many other parts of the Europe.
Very nice to hear you have very good firearms laws.
However, when I read your text I made a "small" error:
"If you don't want a firearm that requires a licence you can always buy a black
market.. oops!!
A black powder muzzle loader etc."
I think it's time to go bed this evening !!
I hope you will enjoy your excellent hobby!
Hey Tim I think you are using the Podavach mag loader upside down. In the video you're using it with the magazine to the right and the channel thing to your left, so you end up having to use your left hand to slide the rounds to the channel. In your case since you apparently are right handed, the magazine should be to your left, and you use your right hand to slide the rounds to the loading channel, then use your right hand again to use the block to push them.
Also, kudos to M13 , you just showed accidentaly that the product is also left-handed friendly.
Eh, it works either way. :)
Another great video, Mac, keep it up
0:48 its Tantal, older brother od Beryl ;)
Greetings from Poland
Does it have a 3 round burst? Saw one actually have it still functioning a while back.
Military version does, alongside with semi and auto (selector is located on the left side and standard AK selector works as a safety lever only.
I love the way the Beryl ejects spent cases - 10 meters away in every direction :-)
How much is one worth?
One mistake in this video. This is Beryl, not Archer. Archer means Łucznik in Polish. This is name of company which made this awesome gun 😅. Greatings from Poland 💪🏽
Mac you never maked a video with the fn fal. why???
Dziekujemy za podzielenie sie z nami tym.
(Thank you for sharing that with us)
Some pubg kids will come and say
"I want to see the recoil control for 6x"
I'm looking forward to your new Beretta ARX video. Given its features I think your right that's kind of a under appreciated rifle.
I keep hear of copper customs. is that a gun shop
It's his gun shop, ya.
oh ok. to bad . I live in Texas
+Spyder you can get firearms shipped from copper custom to a local FFL
nice. didn't know that
+Spyder they have a decent selection and prices, ive ordered several guns and accessories and theyre always quick to ship and respond to emails promptly, i highly recommend
I saw your very
first vid on this Beryl. I got one, glad I did.
YEY im from poland :P Beryl cool rifle.
Lovely video. I live in Poland and some day I will go the extra effort of obtaining the Polish sports rifle permit to have my own Beryl at home.
Yup, promag is complete junk. I don't trust Tapco mags either but at least they make a good AK trigger.
Big fan of the channel. all the way from New Zealand
Thank you for watching. New Zealand, I would love to visit one day!
+Military Arms Channel we're still allowed semiautomatics here, unlike our Aussie cousins.
Pubg Upgrade team were here 😂
Heck yeah
The 5.56 AK is chaotic good in its purest form
ee cie beryl
who takes one mag to the range LOL well love your channel.
who came here after PUBG update?
Anil Byanjankar here
Anil Byanjankar me
Oops in pubg mobile it fires 7.62
I'm not a major fan of 556 AKs, but I really, really like this rifle. Are there any vendors that will make one just like yours? Seriously, I want this rifle.
