So , was able to get out at lunch for a quick shake down with the red krink.
Attachment Attached File


I took samples of various ammo to try , as seen. Federal m855 , wolf gold , Norma , and finally cheap ass Sargent major stuff.  
Attachment Attached File

Set up at 30 yards roughly and began shooting off hand.

The 855 was low , but I’m saying some of that was me getting used to the trigger and the awful sight ms for an old guys eyes.  If you have shot a krink , you know.

Next was Norma

Wolf gold and Sargent major was similar. I forgot to take a pic.

Zero failures.
Good muzzle blast , but not near as bad as my 7.62x39 krink.
Brace is solid and relatively comfortable
Trigger was typical AK and no “slap”.  
Ejection was AK and all went slightly up and forward.
No key holing , which I was concerned about.
Mag was great and seated well without any wobble or need to force it.


I then took it back to 65 yards and rested it on an ammo can and started busting clays. The first 10 shots were hitting 50% of the time. I was still holding a bit low , dang it ! I  then focused a bit more and was busting clays on every shot. Dang those sights are rough !! 150 rds were shot in 10 shot strings.

Next will need a red dot of some type to help this old guy out.

Overall fun and well worth it even with it being in 5.56.

Thanks for posting the review. That sounds like a fun lunch break.

I expected those sights would be terrible. I'm putting a red dot on mine right away. I ordered a Primary Arms SLX the day I ordered my Krink, and I already have an RS Regulate mount that I'll use.

Good luck with your new Krink!

I shot a little over 400 rounds through mine yesterday but it was just function checking the Krink and the mags I have.  I was mag dumping into the water, but I did aim at and hit a piling out in the water @ about 50 meters a few times.  I loaded each mag with 20 rounds.

I'll go to an actual range next time and do a proper shoot

Good to hear you guys are not having any problems. I watched the DemolitionRanch Krink review last night. His was throwing some huge fireballs and bright muzzle blast flash.

Looked almost like something out of a Hollywood movie lol

Get a 4pc FH and a red dot, all set

Putting both on my M92 made it a different animal

IMO PSA should offer the option of either muzzle device at checkout - maybe a slight premium for the 4pc
