Just test fired my ORF Krink rifle with the slim can design. Fired 120 rounds of Russian HP with absolutely NO problems whatsoever. The only short coming of the Krink is accuracy. There was not really any difference between carefully aimed slow fire and rapid fire (at 25 yards). Both did well to keep it on a one foot square target. But, it would lay the lead down. It was too windy to mess with longer ranges. I can do that another day. I have no serious complaints with the rifle. Just the galling on the barrel at the breech from disassembly (as ORF stated). Strickly a cosmetic/aesthetic issue. The huge balls of fire were very cool and I wish I had some photos of them. I was out alone so no chance of that. Based on my experience with this Krink, I would buy another if an interesting deal came along. I missed out on the $750 offer earlier last year. Too bad. But, I am satisfied that it worked and worked well. Also, I fired Yugo, Bulgarian, and Polish 30 round mags with no problems.
The Yugo folder from DCI/Century was a whole 'nother story. Very accurate and NO problems after 120 rounds of Russian HP. This thing is going to be fun to shoot at any distance. Very tight group at 25 yards, one ragged hole when sighted in. I may have to get anther one at this price (Atlantic FA). Last shot open Yugo mag functioned perfect. I need to get some more of these.
In all, a GREAT morning of shooting. My only regret is that I only took 240 rounds of ammo with me. I could have fired twice that much easily. It's nice to go out and just enjoy shooting without malfunctions.
I changed out the drips to MSG thick Yugo pattern. I love these as they really increase control of the AK with their large grip area. Some don't care for MSG products (R.I.P.) but these work well for me.
I also notched out the safety lever on the Yugo for ease of operation at the range (proof of clear chamber).
