However I'll be honest, a few interesting findings after about 350-ish rounds (and it probably has more to do with the rifle than the can):

It killed my Primary Arms Advanced 30mm red dot. After 9 rounds to re-zero it (since adding a can typically shifts your POI) I headed to the 200 yard range. After about 2 rounds the optic just quit. Could be a lemon since I haven't really used this optic all that long, and PA just released them not too long ago, but it did happen.

The stock was loose, and I do mean loose after I got done. Thought it was the can or the magazine, but the screw holding the Yugo stock came loose pretty good. Might not be that much of an issue on a regular AKM pattern stock (much less an underfolder or sidefolder), but it was pretty bad on my N PAP.

However, this is probably the reason my PA red dot is dead and the stock came loose:



The rifle is probably just overgassed a tad too much. I've noticed this N PAP seems to throw brass pretty high up, sometimes akin to how an SKS throws brass straight up in the air. So, I may be searching for another potential host for this can that isn't so overgassed. Atlantic has pictures of one of their Wolverines on one of the Polish WBP rifles, so I might steer towards one of those. Problem with finding a different, less gassy AK host is that I've always heard Combloc AK manufacturers tend to slightly over-gas them anyway for 'extra reliability'. I have a Wolf XP spring and one of those polymer buffers on order from Brownell's to see if it'll alleviate the issue in the mean time, but I really don't care for those polymer buffers at all.

Mike and Gary, the owners of Dead Air have actually said that the can seems to perform better on 5.45 rifles. While I wouldn't mind getting a 5.45 AK again, I'd rather not. I got rid of mine to consolidate ammo to just 5.56 and 7.62x39 for my bulk rifle calibers.

Is that a carrier outline on your trunnion? I wonder if all the current yugo rifles are over gassed from the factory? That said, look into the KNS precision AK piston. It tames the amount of gas it takes to cycle the carrier.

Yup, it appears to be. I've had 3 Yugo rifles over the years, but can't remember how they ran off the top of my head. I'm still friends with the guy that bought my Zastava underfolder, so I might ask to give it a go on his and see what happens.

While I have heard of the KNS piston and think it's an intruiging idea, I'm really leaning towards buying a new host for this can, though. Something with a folding stock like an underfolder or sidefolder. Hell, maybe I'll finally decide to do an AK SBR to go along with all the AR SBRs I have...

Picked up an SLR 106CR today, plan on throwing in a Form 1 in the mail tomorrow to SBR it. Immediately put on an Ultimak rail, PA Advanced micro dot, a Vickers AK sling, 105 cleaning rod and obtained a K VAR booster shroud to make it easier on the eyes for the next several months.

What's that rail you have the red dot on the middle rifle?

I've got almost the same setup but I've been looking for a good rail to try for a co witness.

The patina looks great and so does the overall build.
