Posted over at Predator Intelligence is some more new about the airsoft Izhmash AK-74M. Expected around September sometime this may well be one of the “best” built AK’s we’ve seen for some time:
The prolific weapons manufacturer behind the AK makes no bones about it that they will be targeting market figures of 40K airsoft players along with military training prospects. The US military already makes use of M4/M16 version along with a variety of other weapon facsimiles for training purposes, so it is not a stretch for AK options to serve similar purposes and we are sure the appeal of an Izhmash produced airsoft gun will certainly drive sales. They already see the purpose of use for Russian youth in training for sport.
