Nitrided barrel?

I assume that would make it difficult to cut, right?

Right, but what’s the finish?

1.6 MOA from an AK at 300 yards, yeah I can live with that. For all you haters out there, keep throwin' your guns in the trashcan. I'll come get them. And store 'em in my safe with all my other stuff. Looks like PSA may be onto a winner here.

ETA: AK haters go pick yer nose somewhere else.

Probably Parkerized. Don't know if chrome lining and nitride play nice

the FN barrel did some work with that Wolf.

That’s pretty astonishing accuracy from an ak with off the shelf ammo. I’ve got some nice AKs already but I need one of these.

I'm calling bullshit!
Rob didn't fire 1 shot, then clean the bore, then fire 2 shots, then clean the bore, then fire 3 shots, then clean the bore, etc. Everybody know if you don't use the most retarded barrel brake in ritual you can come up with, the gun won't shoot good. the more "cross-fit" your barrel brake in is, the better you gun will be. I like to fire a shot then flip a big tire down the road. Then 2 shots, and flip 2 tires down the road. Probably what happened was Rob was firing blanks and Ula added in the trails and hits in the editing room.

Anyone know what the receiver thickness is? 1 mm or 1.5 mm? stamped correct?

Looks promising. Will be interesting to see how well Robski’s holds up. I’ve never heard of Geissele AK triggers causing issues with the bolts/bolt carriers due to steel hardness

I have. Robski did a video on it a while back too. mauled up the back of his tail carrier bad. they were tested as being a harder rockwell than even the Tapcos

Yikes. What brand triggers do you recommend? My SAR-2 has a Gordon Technologies trigger (I had Chris Butler work on it in 2003 to fix the typical Century Arms crap). Works quite well.

Is that considered thick enough? I thought 1.5 mm was standard. What do Saigas and Arsenal stamped receivers use?

Shit, Im glad I watched this.
I was ready to grab an M10 DIY from Atlantic next week, but then I heard Rob say they set the side rail mount high on those...

So maybe Ill just wait for one of these.

They need to ditch the banner on the side. Looks ridiculous. Other than that, the rifle appears to be outstanding!
Would love to see these in 5.45

I’ve long said if someone could make an AK that would shoot 3 moa with Wolf that isn’t overly expensive I’d be interested.

I’m officially interested. Waiting to see what the price will be.

The ones that were up last week were priced at like $869. I ALMOST jumped on it but will hold off a bit for their other AK releases.

Century RAK-1. The only really good AK product Century is making. I put one into every one of my AKs. No issues and a great double-hook trigger that works in single hook receivers.

I've had one in a 5.56 AK-74 build from the very start, which I probably shoot more than my other AKs these days, and a couple thousand rounds later no noticable wear to carrier tail.

I prefer the RAK to my ALG, it’s a great trigger in my experience.

Breaking in a match grade barrel isn't done for accuracy....it's done to make it easier to clean, which can lend itself to accuracy when you dont have time to clean your bore. When you're competing against others, and thousandths of an inch determines the winner....a proper break in makes sense. In a battle rifle, doesn't really matter. And, with chrome lined barrels it's a waste of time.

I have been stocking their web site for last two months checking obessively the MOE, Zhukov and triangle folder were in stock once. I tried to buy the folder yesterday but it was out of stock before I finish ordering...so yeah supply is lacking vs demand. I have been holding on to money to buy new ak checking out different options. I passed on some good deals on romanian aks. Im thinking of buying a kit and paying lee armory to build a kyber pass ak but that is rather expensive compared to PSA triangle folder. YES my heart is set on a triangle folder 7.62 ak. I know they have their GF3 folders in stock but I want chrome lined barrel.
