Tag and a question...I assume it is alright ot have people in the photos, i.e. in costume or unfiorm?

In relation to that questions, I assume this will not be a "cheesecake" photo contest with the most scantily clad woman with an AK automatically winning/going to the final four?

[eta] I apologize for even having to ask the second question, but BOTD stuff seems to flood out if you don't define rules in advance...

i see that some have post pics of rifles they used to own ,yet the rules states that the rifle you post must be your own ak, does this disqualify the guys who have posted pics of rifles that they previously owned?

Its based on the honor system but lets keep it to currently owned AKs.

I bet it's one of the 10 round VEPR mags that fit inside a fake drum.  There was a Russian member who posted in the Russian AK's forum with pics of how his VEPR RPK came with a 10 round mag (limited by Russian law he said) hidden inside a fake RPK drum.

If it is real, DROOL!!!!

eodinert what kind of mag is that in your 74?  A bulgy or Russian?


I spotted some more interesting stuff in those pics.  I haven't seen one of those Ak lights in use by a Russian, and I wasn't sure if that was real Military issue or something else.  Also it has the Sagia grip on it.  I didn't think I'd like that but it looks cool and one last thing the bayonet doesn't have the fence clippers on it which I've never seen either.

I've got two of those Izhmash Saiga pistol grips.  Not only do they look cool, but they are the most comfortable pistol grips you can put on an AK in my opinion.  Someone should make some U.S. made clones of these for us here in the states because mine took 16 months and $90 to get to me here in the U.S.

The black mag is Bulgarian, but the 45 round orange bakelite is Russian.

Unfortunatly - You're right - it is a fake. It was me who posted recently about Vepr SOK-1V (semi-auto RPK-74 clone in .223).
1V had been shipped with ten-round mags only, including one fake "drum" mag - a reflection of current Russian gun laws. BTW I've never heared about Russian .223 or 5.45 drums - only 45rd box mags. Though we have here some 75rd drums for Saiga rifles but in 7.62x39 only.
