Hey Guys,

I just swung by engineering and snapped a few pictures.

These first two photos are of the prototype for our 9mm AK, that will be released in late August/early September. It has a side-folding brace, and takes CZ Scorpion Mags.





Thanks!

9mm looks interesting, thanks for posting

Why the 45 degree AKM gas block and FSB on the 5.56 rifle? Looks funky but I'm a 74 guy I guess

What is the muzzle threading on these?

@ark-and-spark

This was an early prototype that had 3D printed parts in it. I will get another picture to put up.

Thanks!

Even using the Vityaz rivet pattern. You've got a potential buyer right here.

No weird gap on the bolt carrier and front trunnion, check.

Folding stock, check.

Uses Scorpion mags that are pretty cheap, freely available (and I already have a ton), and look right with the platform, check.

9mm AK, check.

Wallet catching on fire, check.

Damn you PSA!  I guess I'll have to get one of these before your MP5 clone comes out.

Curious about price, how barrel is threaded  (suppressor use) and if it's blow back

Want it

BUT DOES IT TAKE A GLOCK MAG

When are they for sale?

Never mind....August/September.

@rlett4 - We are not releasing pricing yet, but it will be VERY competitive.

@adamtheduke - It will be blowback.

Thanks,

Josiah

Any chance of a fixed stock 9mm?  Are you 556 AKs out yet?
6/6/2018 4:53:08 PM EDT
[#19]
This..... This is awesome!
6/6/2018 4:55:03 PM EDT
[#20]
Forgive my ignorance, but are those Scorpion PMags?
6/6/2018 5:13:32 PM EDT
[#21]
@goloud,

No they are not. They are an early prototype of our magazine. The final version of ours will be translucent.

Thank you!

This is making my 9mm carbine decision more and more difficult.
6/6/2018 5:25:46 PM EDT
[#23]
Looks good and I will probably be buying one.  As someone else asked, do you know the thread pitch at the muzzle?
6/6/2018 5:29:29 PM EDT
[#24]
@FiremanFrank

Thread pitch is 1/2 x 36.

Thanks,

Josiah

Any chance that the production model won’t have the huge PSA logo behind the selector?
6/6/2018 5:39:24 PM EDT
[#27]
Also, have you considered an AKSU type rifle/pistol?
6/7/2018 1:18:15 AM EDT

Looks pretty neat!  I spy a hinged dust cover; will that possibly be on the production version?

Not trying to be ornery or anything, but competitive with what?

@KentuckyMarksman - About two weeks on the 5.56 AK.

@sputnik556 - We will have 5.56, 7.62x39, and 9mm pistols in the near future.

@Circle10 - A hinged dust cover will be on the final version.

An update on our KS47. To make the KS47 more price competitive, we changed the upper and lower receiver from billet to forged. They will be available again in 60-90 days. We will have a new pistol version and other variants coming out in the near future.

Thank you,

Josiah

BTW, are the trunnions and bolt carrier going to be cast?
6/7/2018 1:37:30 PM EDT

@walkinginadangerzone

The 5.56 will have a forged Bolt carrier and Trunnion. The 9mm BCG(one unit) and front trunnion will be forged.

Thank you,

Josiah

I think using a common magazine (MPX/Scorpion/MP5) would have been a better idea personally, but overall I am very interested.

This thread is going to cost me money...Especially considering the use of forged components.

OK I see it now...I misunderstood that and something OP said later about their prototype for "their mag"

Switch it to 1/2x28 and not the archaic thread pitch that is 1/2x36

I'm a 5.45 nut but could be persuaded for a 5.56.  Would the rifle versions incorporate the same hinged rail setup?  I've been dying for an ak12 type hinged system.  If so, you have my money.

All of it.

This is my major concern as well. Everything looks really nice on this until I saw the thread pitch.

I agree on the thread pitch. Lots of people will want to run suppressors with it and not all the companies offer 1/2x36.

This is very interesting.  I'd like one with the metal triangle folding stock.
