Rifle is super sweet! Glad to see 5.56 AKs getting some love. I just had my Saiga get a full 101 conversion from Blackbush Armory, popped a Kobra on it. The video has inspired me to actually take it to the range now, and take it out of the safe 😂
Keep in mind ejection doesn't necessarily correlate to gas volume. Ejector location on the Horizontal axis in the receiver rail as well as the ejector angle can radically change ejection on the kalashnikov even with the same gas pressures being present. If you need to know carrier velocity, you gotta observe recoil or put it on a slomo camera.
@@djbray7 agreed. This is mostly for other people reading this. I had this conversation alot with customers in the past when negotiating builds with them so just trying to get it out there where I can.
@@djbray7he isnt talking about gas bruh. Hes talking about the physical ejector. My psa ak 105 was having ejection issues and i just smacked ejector tab, runs good
I also have an extremely rare underfolder YUGO M95 with a really thick heavy barrel. Its machined really well looks different than any normal YUGO ive seen but it shoots like a Cadillac riding on a glass road. But the onty thing that sucks is the M95's didn't have a cleaning rod and the retainer and the lower grip appear to be machined to a lesser mass so you couldn't even get away with drilling a hole into your retainer to add your own cleaning rod, just not enough material left
I have the KNS piston in my WASR3 with an ALG trigger and I had that same super under gas slow feeling bolt issue but I was still ejecting farther than I wanted. But it didn't like my fast finger when down gassed that much.
Slapped a kns n an alg on my sam 5 to fix the issues with the 61 batch, then a 74 front end for that sex appeal. Turns out that 74 brake does more than just look nice. Jas become one of my favorite rifles
I still have a burnt bronze SAM5 that Rifle Dynamics customized for me that I like but dont love. Wish there were an easier way to sell that pig online and ship it to an FFL for background check for buyer. Papa has a tax bill that needs paid.
Great turbo mode! Many guys putting ALG triggers to AKs, are they so good? I'm building my AK 102 project from old saiga, have changed most of externals and now thinking about trigger and adjustable gas option.
I got lucky and the shop that I got my wolverine from had a hand full of of thread caps. But I still got the jmac replacement only complained is that it is heavier with the end cap and muzzle device
Best way to get involved in shooting matches? Me and my buddy have talked about just getting out to a carbine course and havin fun but I can’t find anything
Hey Klayco, I'm new to your channel and AKs in general, after watching some of your videos I wanted to ask if you think 556 AKs are an ideal SHTF/Survival primary weapon with the reliability of traditional AKs combined with the range and accuracy of 556 ammo, do you think they're more accurate than 7.62? Thank you to anyone who replies back with feedback!
As far as accuracy goes I think they're about the same no matter what caliber it's in. Rifle dynamics does some stuff to accurize the ak so you might look into that.
Klay I used to think 5.56 AK's are cringe. I was wrong. I just got my 5.45 built and now I totally get it. I used to be a 7.62x39 shooter only but I bet that 5.56 AK is the tits.
@KLAYCO47 Any chance you'll review the new'ish Midwest Industries "Alpha" series furniture?! I've been wanting to throw it on an SLR106F but waiting to see if you review it
Eh, I probably wouldnt buy it for my self, i dont find it super interesting (that's just me though) If someone I know already has it installed, I might be able to borrow it.
Got a sam5, added a kns piston and it doesnt cycle no matter the setting. Sanity checked it with factory piston to make sure it was right. Sent it back to arsenal and they said it was not over gassed, even though the brass goes super far. Not quite sure what is up with sam5s honestly and ive read all the reviews of issues lately. Honestly aresenals rma was realllly easy to deal with. Idk what folks are complaining about. They serviced it the week it got there. Has anyone else had issues with kns pistons in sam5s?
So not every ak needs a piston. In fact if an ak isn't overgassed enough. A KNS piston will only make your gun run worse. It sounds like you're gun was not overgassed from factory. In fact, it might be a little undergassed. If I were you, I would check it with steel case ammo which is about as weak as is gets and see what it feels like with the factory piston.
You just make me spend two thousand dollars with this video I just bought a Sam5 OD Green anyway I’m about to do it because I have another four Arsenal Sam 7 and SLR104 but you convinced me.
You would've thought that with everything going on that I would've bought a 5.56 AK. What'd my dumbass do? Got drunk on the internetz and bought a Draco, instead. YOLO, I guess lol.
You can get pretty damn close with a KNS piston and the right muzzle device. Honestly, the idea that you can't make AKs shoot smoothly is pure fudd lore. A budget AR out of the box won't shoot flat either, but you never see fudds talking about that, it's always about how AKs have insane recoil 🙄
Not a whole lot heavier than a stamped equivalent. I mean the receiver would be the only real difference. Interestingly enough, having a little extra weight in the center of the gun definitely makes the overall recoil impulse feel better.
Is it bad to have the detent pin depressed all the time? My suppressor just threads on and pushes the detent all the way in on my 74. Any issues with that?
Everytime you make a video about this gun I regret not buying the one with plum furniture on armslist NH. Lol smh. 900 to boot. And then you rub it in with all the wows lmao.
Only 250 ish were produced 20+ years ago from one of the best builders to ever do it in this country. Check out the link in the description for the first video I go into deep detail about.
Glad you reuploaded this.

He lowered the gas and it didn't run. I don't think you're wrong, but his method seems to work well.

When tuning a kns piston, looking at ejection distance is the best way to see the change.
I also have an extremely rare underfolder YUGO M95 with a really thick heavy barrel. Its machined really well looks different than any normal YUGO ive seen but it shoots like a Cadillac riding on a glass road.

Supremo guntube/AK content as always, unmatched in the industry... except for maybe Rob Ski😁
I’ve always been a fan of milled aks. There just buttery smooth.
That was a great find!

Love watching you shoot brother
I am astounded with how fast you can shoot.
I have a SAM5 with jmac break and kns piston.. less recoil than an airsoft gun and to this day zero malfunctions on a variety of ammo and mags
Love you guys, thanks buddy
Thats insane man looks like its not moving at all when you shoot. Awesome gun
If guns were food, this one would be bacon

i was able to get the Wolverine stuff I needed (24x1.5 RH and 26x1.5LH + their collars) from Black Ankle Munitions less than a month ago
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
💪💪💪
Nice gun.
No recoil. I hope my kns piston comes in soon for my m92 now that my sandman has been released to me after 6 months! Lets go!!!
But wait, I really wanted a ballsack razer! 😎✌️

The big bonus is ammo availability and options.
As far as accuracy goes I think they're about the same no matter what caliber it's in. Rifle dynamics does some stuff to accurize the ak so you might look into that.
You are what we ak shooters strive to emulate, thanks...now could you donate some ak stuff to a worthy cause? 😂😅
I love my Dead Air Nomad-30, but I don’t know that I’ll ever buy another Dead Air can. The Wolverine is sick tho.
Nice shooter for sure.
Klay I used to think 5.56 AK's are cringe. I was wrong.

It is man, and they always at least offer the piece of mind of ammo availability.
Could you do a review on CMC elite 2.0 trigger? I'm hearing good things about it but i haven't seen a fast shooter run one yet
3:27 *Leonardo DiCaprio pointing meme* is that a baffle strike I see or am I silly
Lol No that's the way the baffles are built. They all have a little groove, but it definitely makes it look like it has a baffle strike.

Black ankle munitions has all dead air accessories
Will the Tommy triggers drop in work in that?

Still waiting on the klayco and Brandon Herrera collab
Never seen a milled ak with a ribbed top cover

You would've thought that with everything going on that I would've bought a 5.56 AK.
What'd my dumbass do? Got drunk on the internetz and bought a Draco, instead.
YOLO, I guess lol.
Question: is it possible to get a regular old stamped 7.62 AK to shoot flat like this?
Or is this a capability of only premium AKs?
You can get pretty damn close with a KNS piston and the right muzzle device.
Honestly, the idea that you can't make AKs shoot smoothly is pure fudd lore. A budget AR out of the box won't shoot flat either, but you never see fudds talking about that, it's always about how AKs have insane recoil 🙄
What kind of optic was that at the very beginning of the video?
I have to wonder what the weight is of the build is with the suppressor and red dot on there is with a fully loaded magazine. Any ideas?
Not a whole lot heavier than a stamped equivalent. I mean the receiver would be the only real difference. Interestingly enough, having a little extra weight in the center of the gun definitely makes the overall recoil impulse feel better.
@@KLAYCO47 that's amazing! Very impressed!
@@KLAYCO47yeah agree a slightly heavier gun always shoots better in a recoil sense.
Love the channel. Just got me a Serbian RPK to my AK collection.
Nice

@@KLAYCO47 thank you for the response & PIMPJUICE videos.

The one that can take AR mags ? Ya should get it! I have one and love it.
I need a 5.56 Beryl in my life.

amazing no recoil...
Where can I get that trigger?
Everywhere

Master mount
