What about Vepr, Saiga? We got them here, I mean Ak-74 for civilians, In Russia. Kalashnikov USA is a branch from Izhmash aka Kalashnikov Group. So I believe they should have them as well.
@Jeremy S They can't have relations, legally. The sanctions put on Kalashnikov Concern literally make it against the law to sell their firearms in the united states. To have any ties to that company is illegal. Assuming money is going back to them. Now, could they open a company here in america and produce arms? Sure! However, they would not be allow to fund the parent company through those profits
@Jeremy S Yeah, I have no doubt they could've provided plans for building them, and especially setting them up. I just don't see them risking that as far as profits go though
@@rapl1183 I was under the impression that kalashnikov concerne was pissed off that someone is using their name in the United States and was trying to shut it down.

Russian made Vityaz-SN and it's civilian version Saiga-9 over time will not only break it's top cover, but also very common issue of beating it's own bolt guide rails in the receiver to death; ofc making gun unsafe to use. Because it's simple blowback gun and because of AK heritage bolt is very AK-like and it is designed that way there's a lot of mass just above line of recoil. So, because of Newton's First Law, upper part of the bolt wants to stay still while bottom part is already moving, making back side of the bolt to "bump up" after shot just a little bit and over time this little "bumps" will cause guide rails to break. As far as I'm aware this happens to majority of Vityaz-SN's and Saiga-9's at about 5000-7000 rounds through mark. And there's no preventive measures nor fix to it, as far as I know. Again, I'm not saying that KR-9 or AKV-9 are guaranteed to have the same issue, but this problem haven't been addressed in the video and people probably want to know about that well known and extremely common issue on very similar product overseas.
@@Militaryarmschannel Well, It is definitely a possibility and I hope it's true! (And I hope guys at Izhmash will be inspired by this and will actually fix Vityaz/Saiga-9's :D ). But, realistically, this issue still kinda part of the core design, so, please, keep an eye on the rails and stay safe!

Been watching this channel since 2010, can't tell you how much I appreciate this channel, because here in SA , we don't get to have nice toys like this easily. Really love watching you guys' vids
Tim, your toys are so cool! Your input to the industry is invaluable! And the proof is in the pudding. When they watch and make improvements when you point out obvious issues it speaks volumes to your integrity as well as the industry's willingness to learn and make improvements based on real world experience. Atta boy Timmy! And atta boy arms manufacturers! Much love y'all!
Thank you. I have earned a reputation for not holding back... sometimes to a fault as my critics would say. But I can't change my personality. I've been pointing out issues since day one on MAC and I'll continue to do so. We're consumer advocates, not industry advocates. 👍
O my god chap’ You said the fun word in a gun vid. Good of ya chap. Look if we’re honest we buy and shoot guns because there great fun to shoot. As long as your respectful and safe go have fun. You have a good soul ‘ You give good advice ‘ And your not just about the buck’s in your pocket. Love and respect from the UK to you and the family.
Great company too ! I've personally had to deal with them for my personal stuff and customers, they've called me right back , wish everyone operated in the same manner
Bought one of these a few weeks back in pistol form ( KP-9), added Jmac custom adapter and a folding SIG brace, totally love this thing! This thing will even use real Saiga Vityaz mags with slight alteration.
alen moradian When Larry Vicker went to Russia to try out the Russian Vityaz he did make a comparison with the MP-5 after shooting it. He said that the MP-5 had a little more controllability.
Kalashnikov USA needs to wise up and produce everything we want they will have no problem selling it. Also so people know. PUFGUN makes mags for the kr9. Should be able to find them here in the states. Seen them many times for sale here. Cheaper then the factory mags but supposedly just as good. Has texturing.
This will probably be my next purchase. The Saiga 9 was one of the "holy grails" us AK nerds were waiting to be imported before the sanctions hit. It's awesome to be able to get one that was actually made using the PP-19-01 tech packet and blueprints rather than something reverse-engineered from an AKM receiver. Not saying the competitors are bad guns or anything, but I'm also the kind of guy who would like to get something as close to the original Russian gun as possible.
Very Cool KR9 Tim. I would love to have one in the near future. It's just out of my price range right now. Thanks for showing this awesome Kalshnikov KR9 Sir !!!!!!!!
I picked up an AKV last week from my FFL and so far I am very happy with it. The LRBHO is a nice feature especially when shooting steel PPC matches. My only real complain is the weight at 6.5 lbs it's porky but it's solidly made with zero polymer parts. I also have a Romanian PAK 9 and while it's fun to shoot it fails in comparison to the AKV-9 due to all the cheap and poorly fit polymer parts and the fact it cost another $250-$300.00 to make it useable. The KR9 looks great and it's weight is attractive to me but unless the AKV takes a crap I won't be buying one.
That does make sense. The KR9 is more for people who want the original Vityaz. It is kind of like the Brownell Retro ARs. They are for people who want that original pattern AR, but you can get a more practical AR for less cost elsewhere.
I can't wait to see the head to head w/ the PSAK-V! After the last few weeks it seemed odd to not see a live stream w/ Hank Strange in the past several days! LOL
Does anyone remember the old Vector Arms weapons? What ever happened to them? I was almost able to convince my father to purchase some HK's back in the 90s, but he wasn't really interested in them. He's more of an old world military arms collector. His extensive collection of M1 Garands and M1 Carbines is proof of his passion. Keep up the good work my friends.
Ouvi falar que muitas delas tem problemas de fabrica. Provavelmente a Taurus comprou um lote com defeitos e agora está vendendo como se fosse algo sem problemas.
@@joaocarlosgoncalves3247 uma delas ouvi de um armeiro que foi um cano torto. Outro eu vi de perto era coronha torta e enferrujada e dust cover com pintura descascada. As duas foram compras direto da fábrica.
@KillgoreES Ya they keep stating it, but who are they really kidding? You think Kalashnikov Concern didn't provide them with blue prints and guidance for the the KP-9? It's pretty much a 100% faithful clone of the AK9. I HIGHLY doubt that they would allow KUSA to use their name without some sort of agreement.
I don't think it's fair to say they "stole" the name. they were affiliated with Kalashnikov Concern, but when the sanctions hit they had to sever those ties. as others have said, I'm sure they had the tooling, specs, etc. for the guns long before they separated from KC.
Hey Tim, I know you're a friend of Yankee Marshall and know what he and other Washingtonians are subject to, and I saw your posts on social media about funding the fight in the courts against I-1639 in WA. But if you made a video calling people to action, that alone would help immensely because you have nearly a million subscribers! If even a small portion of them donate to the I-1639 Legal Defense Fund, that would make a huge difference.
My friend bought a Scorpion in fde also with the 7.7 inch barrel, I bought a NAK9X at the same time from the same store. Now a couple months later he sold his scorpion and bought the NAK9 also, he said he loves how the all metal AK soaks up 9mm recoil and I agree. The scorpion is an awesome gun, im thinking about the 16 inch version with the barrel shroud myself to play around in some pcc matches.
Seen the receiver for the Ruger that copper custom is making on TGC news video..good looking piece! And so is this! Good luck with the products that y'all are developing! ✌
I had to buy a PAK 9 to get my fix for the bizon 66 with the helical drum mag. I have even went as far as how to make my own mag to put on my PAK 9. KR 9 would be a great 2nd place.
Oooo... That's nice... Also, Tim, when will see another one of those bargain find competitions? Loved seeing those videos, would love to see one in the near future!
@@Hrajnoga That idiot Obastard put out that ridiculous law where firearms from other countries couldn't be imported without X amount of US made parts. I dont know all the details, just enough that we can't even get a nice commie block AK 47 anymore.
Привет Американским любителям оружия!!!!))) В России это оружие в гражданском варианте называется САЙГА-9. А для армии называется "ВИТЯЗЬ". Я стрелял из него. Отличное оружие!!! Желаю всем удачи!!!)))
@@GBGuns Lol. If you're going by that measure, then it's not any different vs. other direct blowback pcc's. Besides, the AKX9 was a limited production pcc. About the only thing that makes them the "same" is that they incorporate the AK as it's foundation. Other than that, they aren't the same at all...
They shoulda given it to you. You're a professional reviewer who helped them improve their product & saved them a lotta money. I woulda given you a free gun.
Compare the Saiga-9 SMG which is pretty much what we're seeing here. Saiga-9, the civilian, semi-automatic equivalent of Vityaz-SN; although the former is said to be incapable of firing with the stock in the folded position.
Once again, they need to recreate the Bison SMG. Basically the same except a sweet helical magazine under the front forearm. Peter G. Kokalis did a review a long time ago in SOF magazine.
Only issue I have with considering buying one, they were suppose to come to market years ago. Same issue with their AK-47 variant, which is still yet to come to market.
I've been extremely excited for these ever since I heard about KUSA working on them down here in Florida. Glad to see you have a positive experience with them; can't wait to pick one up for myself!
Unfortunately I was told by KUSA that shooting reloads voids your warranty. They didn't say "any damage determined to be caused by bad ammo such as reloads would not be covered under warranty" what they said exactly was "shooting reloads VOIDS your warranty". Pretty lame considering the most experienced shooters typically reload!
Im glad youre honest about the PSA- Other channels would flock to the name brand without a mention of PSA being a decent option too- and I like how the psa has a BHO. I can see how the Original would be better, probably smoother and nicer quality- plus the historic factor . But the PSA looks cool too and works. Would like to see a head to head , gauntlet and accuracy test of the two!
I think the PSA avk9 sounds like a better alternative. Its has a milled mag well instead of polymer on the kr9 it uses scorpion magazines and its cheaper. But if you want a vityaz clone then go with the K USA
You get to play with the best toys. Love you channel. I have no doubt you will accept Yankees challenge to fight 1639 and you been doing all along.. Love to see you torture test pistol videos
Some people get their panties in a knot about any exchange of money. The way I feel, Tim should be getting as much money as possible for all his endeavors.
Very nice weapon. I also liked how you tagged the accessories in your video. So, where does this leave the Scorpion Evo in your list of faves? Also, I just picked up the Evo pistol w/SB tactical brace and am wondering if I can shoulder fire it since it's just a pistol? Your suggestion? Thanks

Brownells offers these guns in Europe :-) Try contacting them.
@@Hrajnoga That idiot Obastard put out that ridiculous law where firearms from other countries couldn't be imported without X amount of US made parts. I dont know all the details, just enough that we can't even get a nice commie block AK 47 anymore.
MLGInfidel1 that was Bush Sr.
Привет Американским любителям оружия!!!!))) В России это оружие в гражданском варианте называется САЙГА-9. А для армии называется "ВИТЯЗЬ". Я стрелял из него. Отличное оружие!!! Желаю всем удачи!!!)))
So what are the differences between this and the AKX-9?
go watch a video on the AKX-9 and you'll see pretty quick how different they are.
@@AnontheGOAT I own the AKX-9. My question was about the operation/function. This is essentially the same gun with some cosmetic changes.
@@GBGuns Lol. If you're going by that measure, then it's not any different vs. other direct blowback pcc's. Besides, the AKX9 was a limited production pcc. About the only thing that makes them the "same" is that they incorporate the AK as it's foundation. Other than that, they aren't the same at all...
@@AnontheGOAT Lol
They had one of these at my local gunshow 2 days ago..it comes in a nice orange hardcase
They shoulda given it to you. You're a professional reviewer who helped them improve their product & saved them a lotta money. I woulda given you a free gun.
That thing looks fun AF.
WHERE ARE THEIR 762×39 RIFLES AT?!?
E A 5.45x39 too?
@@jason127x99 haven't got into the caliber yet but hell yea. That too!
Haven't had the chance to bump-fire my AKX -9. Very frowned upon at my club range
Compare the Saiga-9 SMG which is pretty much what we're seeing here. Saiga-9, the civilian, semi-automatic equivalent of Vityaz-SN; although the former is said to be incapable of firing with the stock in the folded position.
Vss is my bucket list gun!! MAC help haha
At 12:43 you didn’t blink once in 30 rds. Very impressive. 👍
You guys notice things I don't... 👍
Once again, they need to recreate the Bison SMG. Basically the same except a sweet helical magazine under the front forearm. Peter G. Kokalis did a review a long time ago in SOF magazine.
I'm liking mine a lot! It's OK suppressed but like you Tim, I'll just shoot it stock. Just ordered the drum mag! ;)
Only issue I have with considering buying one, they were suppose to come to market years ago. Same issue with their AK-47 variant, which is still yet to come to market.
well it's available so... I bought mine from Brownells 2 months ago.
I've been extremely excited for these ever since I heard about KUSA working on them down here in Florida. Glad to see you have a positive experience with them; can't wait to pick one up for myself!
Unfortunately I was told by KUSA that shooting reloads voids your warranty. They didn't say "any damage determined to be caused by bad ammo such as reloads would not be covered under warranty" what they said exactly was "shooting reloads VOIDS your warranty". Pretty lame considering the most experienced shooters typically reload!
Im glad youre honest about the PSA-
Other channels would flock to the name brand without a mention of PSA being a decent option too- and I like how the psa has a BHO. I can see how the Original would be better, probably smoother and nicer quality- plus the historic factor . But the PSA looks cool too and works.
Would like to see a head to head , gauntlet and accuracy test of the two!
Coming up on 1M gents, keep up the great content! BECOME A PATREON VIEWERS!!!
I think the PSA avk9 sounds like a better alternative. Its has a milled mag well instead of polymer on the kr9 it uses scorpion magazines and its cheaper. But if you want a vityaz clone then go with the K USA
Great video!
Just bought the PSA, should be in Friday:)
Great video Tim. Can you make a new video comparing this to the zenith z5rs, and b&t apc9 pro and or ghm9?
Keep pumping out these great videos.
You get to play with the best toys. Love you channel. I have no doubt you will accept Yankees challenge to fight 1639 and you been doing all along.. Love to see you torture test pistol videos
Nice,I saw mags are $45-50 a piece,and this is in my area $1300-a piece.
Thanks for comparing with the AKV. Foresight like that us why we keep you around. Good vid.... "Pig in poop."
you can fix some of the suppressed gas blowback by putting some tape on the back of the dust cover. just saying.
That's awesome, I hope their AK rifles comes out soon.
Tim your services are worth lots of monies I don't think it would change anything if you accepted payment for your services. Keep up the good work.
Some people get their panties in a knot about any exchange of money. The way I feel, Tim should be getting as much money as possible for all his endeavors.
@@xenonram agreed sir.
Kr9
Very nice weapon. I also liked how you tagged the accessories in your video. So, where does this leave the Scorpion Evo in your list of faves?
Also, I just picked up the Evo pistol w/SB tactical brace and am wondering if I can shoulder fire it since it's just a pistol?
Your suggestion?
Thanks
Ok, now I want another gun haha!
Nice Norinco shirt !👍
There’s a link in the description if you want one from our forged from freedom store.
