    I'm russian
    I've disassembled an AK many times at school, but had no complete understanding of its mechanics. Dozens of youtube videos weren't helping either, untill i came across this very one.
    It's simply beautiful. Everything is so clear now, even the smallest details and nuances.
    Huge thanks to the author

    After sighting in at 60 feet, I could easily cover 5 shots with a nickel ruclips.net/user/postUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL ! Truly a pleasure to shoot! Scope was easy to adjust for eye relief. Only problem the varmints must have seen it delivered lol!Update: So impressed with shot groups at 30 yards I purchased a Hammers 3×9 with adjustable Objective scope! Now a true nail driver!

    I used my AKM for 30 months - every single day on the range and plenty times in combat. It never had a stoppage for any reason whatsoever ... even when I'd slept on it in the mud or thrown it in the back of the vehicle among the 'spoils of war.' It takes genius to produce a tool so simple, yet so effective and reliable. A fellow warrior preferred an FN-FAL that he'd lovingly care for at every halt, every opportunity ... yet he still threw it into the bush after it had failed him a number of times in a very busy day, screaming "find me a 'kin AK!"

    I'm impressed. It is refreshing to see that someone has the technical terminology correct as well, especially when it comes to firearms.
    The only comment I might add is that it would be VERY informative, primarily for those unfamiliar with semiautomatic rifles in particular, would be to specify and differentiate between what is an "Assault" rifle as opposed to a plain-jane semiautomatic rifle, even if they look nearly identical in outwards appearance.
    Otherwise, thanks for your efforts.
