Just got my Molot RPK in 5.56. It is fricking amazingly built.
20 seconds with a dremel and the stock was once again "folding". 
Many parts (much more than a Chinese AK or other variant) are serial numbered. The original pistol grip was in the box (installed grip is US for 922r). Other then the crappy caliber and crappy promag, I have no complaints other then I am already plotting to buy another

these rifles are the SHIZ!!!! I built one up in 5.45 right before they released these. I would have bought one of these in a heart beat if I hadn't of been able to find all the parts for a 5.45 build.

ETA: If you don't have a soul you can use promag and might get lucky and have them work

i saw that definitive arms is offering a permanent conversion for vepr ak's with a magwell that acts just like an ar... takes ar mags, has a bolt hold open on the last shot feature and mag release just like an ar... i am really wanting one of these RPK's, but the magazine situation is a huge factor for me. i have hundreds of ar mags. id much rather pay 550 with a professional refinish and be able to have an endless supply of mags. then again, maybe i should just buy this thing and stick it in the safe as a collectors piece. |

Personally I would not dump $550 into a gun in a way that will destroy any potential collector value just to have cheap mags, not to mention the $550 would get you about 15 mags which is not too shabby. |

RTI has 45 rounders. Not sure of make or CoO, but they're a hundred bucks. I'm tempted to get one for my 106, but that hundred bucks is probably best spent elsewhere.

I too would like cheaper, but up until now the few of those I have seen were always around the $150 mark, so I guess it is time to suck it up and buy. Worst case scenario I see them for $50 each and double down. |

Uhh that is a smoking price for Molot 45rd rpk 5.56 mags. Those were almost unheard of as of a few months ago, and the one that sold on gunbroker a week or two ago went for almost $400.

Nice rpk btw, you will have to post up some range results when you get some glass on it and dialed in along with some action shots. I would love to have one, but my collection consists mainly of short carbines.
I got 5 of the mags for my 106ur sbr, and if I had the funds I would buy a few more. Especially them being unobtainable for so long. Coincidentally I sent a few people some emails a week or two ago asking about these very mags and the likelihood of importing a small batch of them. The reply I got back wasn't too hopeful, so I am ecstatic that these have shown up! |

Well you know me and 556...meh. Too expensive for me
Shoots well, has a louder report than the 545 and definitely gives that RPK smile. The 45 round 556 mags are the final touch. |

It's visible in the third pic on the first page. |

Mine showed up at the FFL today, plan to hopefully wring it out tomorrow.
Was a little concerned about ordering from Royal Tiger / Inter-Ordnance but the rifle showed up in a timely fashion and in excellent shape. The three 45 round mags I ordered were in the box with the rifle. |
