@JacksMagicBean Honestly, I can't say, I don't have a lot of experience with the Ace at this time, other than fondling it. But I will say that the PTR 32 is the most accurate 7.62x39 rifle that I have fired so far.
Thanks! I thought that one round that didn't go off could have been a light strike, but when I looked at the primer, it was smacked pretty good, like real good. I think maybe just a dud, but I'm all for increasing reliability. I do appreciate the info.
Bought one of these few months ago, fun shooter. Mine now has a wide handguard and steel bipod, Burris 1-6 lpvo with burris mount. ((10)) waffles and bakes fit mine so I'm happy.
Awesome! I'm definitely wanting to put a mlok handguard and a bipod or stubby grip on it. The thin grip that is on it literally cooks after about 60 rounds
Good video. I have one too and it’s a reliable accurate shooter. I think the timney 91 trigger will fit. That’s my next improvement. Of all the mags I’ve tested, a magpul is best. Real struck and front handrail can also be upgraded. I will need to add a check riser or magpul rear stock to better fit scope view. Keep up the videos.
I cannot bitch about either. Out to 300 yards, I can reliably hit steel with my AKM. 200 yards I am 100% with mine but I mounted an optic. I have a PTR-91. Love both platforms. Better is relative. The AKM is way better for close combat. The mags both rock in. If you use the AKM with an optic, the real world difference is negligible except for the weight. Irons are way better than the AKM. I have always felt the AKM irons are rough. The front post covers too much and I like the diopter more than I thought I would. But if I had to run and gun, I'd be taking the AKM. That said I want a PTR32 because roller locking guns are hella accurate. It would maximimize the accuracy of 7.63x39.
@@projectredbeard2199 My AKM is just shy of 7.5 lbs without ammo. What does the PTR-32 weigh without ammo? My PTR 91 weighs 10 lbs but I got the FR model with the bull barrel and aluminum hand guard intending to make it a DMR from the get go so it is front heavy but is capable of 1 MOA accuracy if I do my job.

Keep it up!
Appreciate the tips! I have a hard time getting to record at certain times because of work, so I get limited there some. But the other stuff I can definitely do!
I had the ptr 91. Built like a tank 1.5"moa with surplus ammo. That roller delayed system is wild but it does the job. Also it was the dirtiest gun ever, I dont know if its the design or what but after 100 rds it looked like an AK after 1k rds. A cool range toy but as far as a fighting weapon a 7llb AK or AR will be chosen over a 9lb gun same caliber imo.
The HK roller delayed system is just inherently dirty lol, but is very reliable, even when extremely dirty. This Is more of a DMR rifle. More weight, yes, but increases the capability of the round greatly.
So since it runs the ak mags I generally just get magpul mags it really likes those. The 1st gen didn't like other types, supposedly, but from what I've read, Generation 2 is more versatile. This is a gen 2 and I'm definitely gonna do more videos with it, so I'll try some other mags as well.
Thank you. Yeah, from everything I've read on them over the years, they just didn't gain in popularity like they should have, but they are awesome guns. I only remember the difference because I like 7.62x39 more than 556 lol
Awesome gun, great shooting. Love the concept of this rifle, would love one in a small barrel configuration but thebissues I'm hearing of the 762 on the roller delay system is concerning and I have heard issues of guns breaking roller popping and various issues. The weight issue is a concern too, nit because it's merely heavy but because the gun is so unwieldy and bulky. I would have to get one in the hk 53 or 33 config, and a little 8 or 10 inch barrel really 10 inch is all you need to fully take advantage of the 762 cartridge, with a 23 inch barrel kind of being a little to muc u but still the second best option. The great part of the 862 is that you can use the 762 cartridge to dull effectiveness with such a small barrel because the gun powder is burned so fast on the round, so taking advantage of this andnhsving a light compact gun is my whole agenda since I love the 762 round and it's easier to come across for now than 300 blk. So getting a bulky hk 91 base hk per 32 is just kind of counter productive, even thought I just fkj love the concept and lokm of it. I'm trying to get anything outside kf aks that chamber 762 and this has so much potentual
@Mithradates_of_Los_Angeles I think most of the issues were worked out in the first gen. As far as popping rollers that happens really on all the roller delayed blowback guns at some point really. But I see what youbare saying about a shorter barrel. Mine is 18" I believe but it's just so accurate.
Yeah, I love mine! Just got an aluminum mlok rail for it from Midwest Industries. I'm not sure why that round failed. It smacked that primer pretty good.
@K Ban I use high temp lithium grease on the bolt and rollers and use a thin coat on the inside of the receiver. Keeps the build up to a minimum for me.
I love my PTR32 had it for about 6 years and it just runs. Got mine new for $899 and nobody seemed to know about these. I put original g3 wood furniture on mine for that original old school battle rifle look.
It is a good bit heavier than the AK(i do have a Zastava m70 that i love) , however in the configuration in the video here it's getting 1 moa or less with TULA ammo...

While it is definitely heavier than an AK the accuracy is crazy for a 7.62x39 caliber rifle and even crazier to note that that is still with cheap steel cased ammo
Honestly, that depends on the purpose of the gun. If you want a lightweight gun that has been proven all over the world, the m70. If you want a gun to squeeze the most accuracy out of the 7.62x39 and don't care about the weight, then the ptr 32. The AK trigger is usually pretty good. The PTR is a heavy but crisp trigger.

@@projectredbeard2199 so I currently own a Zpap92 pistol, I never owned a rifle AK variant but I’d like to for sure, Accuracy is a must in any platform I get, I believe in having a pistol version of your rifle just in case something happens but also for CQB (hypothetically) which is why I have a Zpap 92 and before that a real Romanian Draco (12.5 inch) My rule of thumb; one is none and two is one, I love that the PTR 32 uses AK mags and I’m itching for a rifle at this point however the M70’s I’m torn between happen to be a wooden fixed stock or magpul furniture/ folding stock, with the wood grain fixed stock JMAC Customs has an adapter that allows for Sig and Sig style folding stocks so if I dont like the fixed stock I have a more of a compact option to add on, Wasr 10 is also another decent option but of course it would be the cheapest amongst the two however I want a longer barrel for accuracy with the possibility to have a folding stock but would you rather carry a PTR 32 and a 556 rifle or an AK and a 556 rifle ?
@Vanguard Gaming gotchya, so for me, I don't own a 556 anymore, I probably should, but I sold mine because I had way more 308 and 7.62x39 ammo so I just stuck with those. The ak platform is plenty accurate and more accurate than most people think. We have some PSA GF3 aks, and they are awesome aks, 300 yards with a micro red dot all day long. The PTR32 is just stupid accurate, like 1 moa with TulAmmo, that's why I made it my DMR rifle. If you want an all-purpose rifle, then an AK is probably the way to go. I have not run a Zpap, so i dont really have an opinion on them, but the M70s are gtg, and if you want to save some more money or put more money in ammo, maybe take a look at the psa Ak47, forged trunion, bolt, and BCG. I honestly think I just seen them have some blemished gf3s for like 599. But if you want to stick traditional import, then m70.
@Beef Supreme dang... hopefully, they will get it straightened out for you. The only issue I've really heard of on these is if the locking piece is the wrong one, but that's not really a common thing. When you get it back, let me know what they say, im curious.
I have one and I don't think it's better than an AK at all. More magazine and and ammunition sensitive than any AK I've ever run as well as heavier. Fun gun but it's obvious why the Finns stuck with their Valmets instead of going with these.
@dbmail545 Mine hasn't been ammo sensitive at all. Accuracy wise, at range, it is far superior to the AK. Heavy? In a way. I now have it configured as a true DMR and it works that niche very nicely. The AK does have its advantages don't get me wrong.
An adjustable stock would be cool, but idk why I kinda like this one lol. And for the trigger, I'm not really sure there is a whole lot of options, I know there used to be a guy people talked about that did hk trigger jobs but I can't remember the name and I think it was like $300. The trigger is heavy but very crisp.
The ptr 32 is a 9lb rifle bare throw an optic on it, throw an base on it and throw a full mag and you are at almost 14lbs. Idc what you think that is heavy for a 7.62x39 rifle. Period. An AK with a full mag is 7.5lbs
@John Outdoors I never count rounds. Why remove mental concentration away from your target? The HK design does not lock to the rear. The mag that I reinsert had a primer that did not ignite, so I dropped the mag out, and as it was falling, I seen there were a few rounds left. I had already fire a majority of that mag, and obviously if I wasn't just out shooting, it would have not been re-inserted. Also, yes, the sun was directly in front of me, it didn't mean I couldn't hit my target, I just clearly stated that I wish I had some coverage to ease in visibility.
Man if you don’t like the sound of that bolt on the rollers you just might be dead inside . I love mine . Nice video and presentation .

@dbmail545 Mine hasn't been ammo sensitive at all. Accuracy wise, at range, it is far superior to the AK. Heavy? In a way. I now have it configured as a true DMR and it works that niche very nicely. The AK does have its advantages don't get me wrong.
Seems it would be worth it to get an adjustable stock and Trigger Job done on it.
An adjustable stock would be cool, but idk why I kinda like this one lol. And for the trigger, I'm not really sure there is a whole lot of options, I know there used to be a guy people talked about that did hk trigger jobs but I can't remember the name and I think it was like $300. The trigger is heavy but very crisp.
@@projectredbeard2199 Bill Springfield still does Trigger Work I believe. Its like an $80 dollar job or $300 for a new one already done.
@Sense Offender Yeah, that's the guy lol. I may do that. I need to get a few more things, though, before I do.
Liked,subscribed and unsubscribed. I don’t need gingervitis in my life
Sometimes it just be like that
Meal Team Six at it again...FUDD Factory.
If you think that pellet rifle is heavy maybe you should lay off the cheese burgers dough boy
Steve did you just call one of your own kind a dough boy? Lol
In my opinion he should learn to count his rounds and not worry about being obese

I've always hated you
He also said the sun was beating on his face. Lmao!
The ptr 32 is a 9lb rifle bare throw an optic on it, throw an base on it and throw a full mag and you are at almost 14lbs. Idc what you think that is heavy for a 7.62x39 rifle. Period. An AK with a full mag is 7.5lbs
@John Outdoors I never count rounds. Why remove mental concentration away from your target? The HK design does not lock to the rear. The mag that I reinsert had a primer that did not ignite, so I dropped the mag out, and as it was falling, I seen there were a few rounds left. I had already fire a majority of that mag, and obviously if I wasn't just out shooting, it would have not been re-inserted. Also, yes, the sun was directly in front of me, it didn't mean I couldn't hit my target, I just clearly stated that I wish I had some coverage to ease in visibility.
