  • Today we take a look at a DMR AK that we built, chambered in 6.5 Grendel. It's definitely the only gun of it's kind, so let's dive into what makes it special!

    About Me
    My name is Brandon Herrera. I'm the owner and operator of The AK Guy Inc, a 07 Firearm Manufacturer based out of Fayetteville, NC. I also co-own Stark Media Group, and designed the rifle known as the AK-50.
    I've started to dedicate this RUclips channel above all to have fun, but also as a way to document my entrepreneurial journey for the next few years as I try to grow my companies. Hopefully, people can learn from my example, successes, and failures.
    Either way, I'm having a lot of fun with it so far, and I hope it's just as fun to follow along!

      an AK can literally be any weapon imo. You can even make it to look like a Shotgun. If you remove the Stock and the Magazine, it will almost looked like a SPAS-12. And maybe one day, someone will managed to make an AK-47 to a Shotgun.

Would have been great if soviets/russians themselves switched to that solution and pushed SVD more into SVDK/SVU direction for company/battalion snipers. Yes, there are also those as well as separate ones, spetznaz snipers and so on. And everyone uses different equipment.

I know,I know(VEPR's) but they are rare and banned now. The gun could even be done with more of the short stroke operation like an SVD or SKS type action if need be for accuracy , if it made any difference. Good mags are also a must. I do wish someone would take it on like P.S.A on a large scale so I could grab one. I was a few years late on kit building $$$ or I would just try to build one out myself.....thank's for doing this.
