That's a Soviet PBF (aka gorilla mask) bag chap. Biscuit.

So is it good to skirmish with? Just kidding! I've been very tempted by this since it was in the news section and I think you've helped me make up my mind, thanks for the review Grobut! Biscuit

The AKs74 would only really been seen in use, in significant numbers, by insurgent types in Caucasus. You do however see the very odd one in pictures/videos from North Pakistan (Swat Valley for example). When the Soviets were in Afghanistan the Mujahideen fighters/Afghan gunsmiths would attach the stock and/or body of the AKs74 onto an AK47/AKM, these are commonly known as Cyber Pass AKs and these are often mistaken for AKs74's. These are seen in quiet a few pictures of insurgents. Hope that helps. Biscuit

Great looking AK there enteryourusername, very similar to some of the early prototypes of the '47. Well done mate! WorldGuns.RU Biscuit

It is a VVS 'Vintorez'. It is classed as a sniper weapon but operationally it is for pin point hits at normal rifle ranges as opposed to long range 'sniper' shots. http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn20-e.htm Love the picture of the guy in the helicopter! Is that one of the RAF lot that they deployed in Basra? Biscuit #EDIT# always too slow to type a reply!!

That is faded Russian Fed VSR (and damned fine it is too!) Biscuit #EDIT# sp

Stealth1911 - that actually looks really good, has a nice 'guerilla workshop' vibe to it. #doths cap# mightyjebus - the real wood on your 74's...word's cannot describe!! Biscuit

The differences or the gun?

I think ACSlym means that if you look at the trigger you can see that it is an airsoft Beryl (there are a number of telltale differences between real and airsoft Aks triggers). At least I hope that's what ACSlym meant! Hats off to you xxxFENCExxx, that is one bloomin' lovely gun! Biscuit

You've answered your own question Rambo Kid! It is indeed a Romanian AKM. Biscuit #EDIT# sp

Eversley yesturday (skirmishing in the rain is fun!) Biscuit

Thanks for that, it'll be a very good price if its the case! Also as mightyjebus and PlasticMag have asked do you have any info on where we can actually purchse this?! Thanks again, Biscuit

A very good review, easy to read and very imformative! Got a question for you: I take it that the £220 price is just for the kit but do you know how much it would be to have internals fitted from LCT? Thanks for the review, Biscuit

Is the problem that you cannot get the hook through this? http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn315/G...ng/DSC01195.jpg If this is the case you have to pull the hook through at an angle like this: http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn315/G...ng/DSC01193.jpg and then it should go through with no problems like this: http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn315/G...ng/DSC01194.jpg The rest of these pics might be of use too (I took them in a hurry to illustrate what to do so forgive the crappy quality) http://s307.photobucket.com/albums/nn315/G...ver/ak%20sling/

Hope these help: gunsnet.net imageshack I cannot remember who drew the last diagram, so appologies for not giving credit where it's due. Biscuit

That works amazingly well, nicely done Sir! Biscuit

Wish the T55 was part of my regular skirmish kit....

Liking the braided sling there! Biscuit
