Why is there not any TiN bolt carriers for AKs?
If they were available would you buy one, and what do you think the price range should be?

TiN AK carrier?  No, definitely not needed at all.  I’ve never had an AK carrier not run properly because of friction issues.  Think of the AK carrier like a train, it just rides on rails, very little surface area engagement on the carrier.

Atlantic Firearms has them in several of their Atlantic Arms parts kit builds.  They do look good.

It's pointless, a stock AK bolt carrier is bullet proof and can run with zero lube.

That doesn’t mean they can’t look good.  With added protection.

It might look good on a gold or chrome plated AK, would look goofy other wise imo, though that's highly subjective.
