The receiver rarely suffers a stress crack on the right from the bulge but strangely experiences a stress crack on the left side where there isn't a bulge in the receiver.

Ron, how do the bulgy 7.62 barrels out of the SLR107s hold up to key holing compared to the WASRs? Also, have you put any of the Zastava AKs currently being imported by the company and not by century back in the line? Also, have you put the new century imported RPK from Romania in the line as well? |

We are still using the older (8+ years ago) Romanian AES-10B RPK's and none so far have key-holed. V/R Ron |

@HendersonDefense
Really loving the updates! If you have any updates on how the Krinkov SLR-104URs holding up I'd still really love to know how long the barrels, receivers, and other parts last on these and how does this compare to full-length AK74 rifles. Keep hearing that these are far more wear-intensive on the parts. Thanks again Ron! Love these threads of yours. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By GerryOwen:
So about that PSAK update...? I can't give you a straight answer because of parts swapping by the staff. We have six full-time armorers and only four of them were working the day we put them on the line. The others had just finished their 4-day work week. I don't know at what time in the testing did my guys start swapping parts. I figured staff would relay the information the other armorers but it was my fault for not making it clear. On top of that, those armorers didn't keep the weapons assigned to individual RSO's for proper round count. They were all over the 8-10,000 round mark before one of the armorers brought it to my attention. I told the staff to keep the weapons secured until I spoke to PSA staff and I just never got a hold of them. PSA did try reaching out to me quite a times but at one of the worst possible time of my life. They were trying to reach out to me when my best friend who owned New Frontier Armory was diagnosed with stage four cancer. David, my wife and I started Battlefield Vegas and I just couldn't believe what was happening to us. We only got to spend exactly three months from the day I told him he had a dangerous growth in his arm pit until the time we sat alongside his wife, parents and his sister to hold his hand and watch him pass. I didn't answer very many emails up until that point and let a lot of them just sit unanswered while trying to comprehend what just happened and why it happened so fast. David M Famiglietti left behind a beautiful wife and two amazing kids and those were only things that my family focused on for quite some time. Fast forward to last week.. I put one of my staff in charge of the PSA's to include their 9mm version. He will be in comms with PSA throughout the process and provide them round count and anything we encounter along the way.

As for the PSA AKs, is there any additional data to share regarding what was replaced and why? Was it standard maintenance based on past experiences from other AKs or was it related to a failure? There are a lot of die hard AK fans looking forward to these tests, as a lot if us have high hopes for a quality American made AK that can compete with the WASR and other combloc guns at an affordable price. Thank you for everything Ron, you're awesome. |

Ron,
Please convey our condolences to David and his family. I was shocked to learn of his passing. I remember listening to him in an interview on a podcast so long ago that I forget which one or who interviewed him. He sounded like a genuinely nice guy. Thank you for all the great feedback you provide the shooting community. -Ricky |

Maybe this has already been answered, I read through the thread about a week ago but don't recall. What brand of 7.62x39 do you shoot? I'm asking because people say the commercial bi-metal jacketed ammo ruins barrels. I see where you said you have yet to shoot out a WASR barrel. Nice!
Second question, any SKSs on the line? |

We use Wolf-branded ammo for all of our 7.62x39. It comes packaged differently and not always in the normal retail packaging. As for SKS rifles, we use both Chinese and Yugos. V/R Ron |

Ron, being numbered with the other PSA AK owners waiting to hear any info on their rifles, I would ask you which models you are putting through the paces? AKV (I think you said the 9mm), GF3? AKP? the newer AKE?
And it can't be stated enough the enormity of gratitude I/we all have for your insight, details, and thoughts on so much that effects us. Thank you for your time here. |

Thanks for sharing this information! The AK may or may not be as reliable as shown in InRange's mud test, but at least I know if I keep it clean, it'll run a long time. PS: I'm curious about your findings about the G36. I saw you had good reliability with FN guns & the HK 416 being as good as any other M4. |

I don't believe we've experienced any differences between the WASR-10's and the WASR-10/63's. I know we are using the 10/63's right now and they are still as reliable as the older units. As for the G36, biggest failure point on that is the bolt carrier. The welds will eventually break where the ambi charging handle is fixed. We've lost some bolts as well but AUG, SCAR and G36 bolts are definitely stronger units. V/R Ron |

For the last few years WASR's and the newer AES-10B's have been shipping with the inferior BASS wood furniture. Some mistake the wood for beech. Bass wood has slightly better durability than balsa wood, but not much. It's garbage. |

They don't hold up on the range and within 2-3 weeks, they have so many dents and gouges from being soft that they make the weapon look "used and abused". My staff understand my mindset now but initially they didn't understand why the big deal about swapping it out. 95% of our customers have never shot a gun, let alone a machinegun. They are already intimidated and scared when walking in and having beat up and trashy furniture does not help one get over the fear, it makes them wonder if it's even safe to shoot just by the looks of it. We use Romy G furniture sets are the MUCH better. V/R Ron |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By HendersonDefense: Yes, we do have some of the new ZPAP Yugo's but I wasn't aware they had chrome lined barrels. So far so good with them as I haven't seen any set for demil. V/R Ron I'm also waiting to hear about your experience with the Yugo ZPAP pistols. I just got an M-85 version in 5.56 with the 1.5mm receiver and CHF and CL barrel. Also own an old Romy WASR-3 in 5.56. Thank you OP to take the time out of a busy schedule to do these threads. It would take the average user 100 years to put the typical month's worth of Battlefield Vegas use through them and the AAR is invaluable! |

Saw that you mentioned you were running Tortort receivers and just wondered how they seem to be fairing under pressure?

We've been running 5-6 of the Tortort milled receivers and finally had to pull one from the line. In my opinion, it has nothing to do with the receiver itself but an over-gas issue inherent to all AK's. V/R Ron |

So the locking lugs on the receiver still looked fine?
(I know you probably hate this question but at what appointment round count?) Thanks for the info. I couldn't find anything online about how a TorTort receiver held up to a high round count. Probably because I'm bad with the internet... |
