Now how you go about
that is your problem; this isn’t as easy a process as it is on an MP5 or M16,
but you wouldn’t have bought an AK if you wanted life to be easy on you. Personally,
I move the fire-select switch with my right index finger. Sometimes I’ll pull
my left hand towards me from the handguard and switch her down with that –
either way, you’re in business. The next step is sighting in, the sights are
nice, not like the peep sights found on M16’s or MP5’s. I like standard open
sights, it’s just easier for me to use. Pull the trigger, and a nice stream
of white plastic will leave the barrel.
In thick brush and vines,
you may get snagged, it’s really isn’t all that bad, just keep her low and
you’ll make out fine. With the stock tucked under your arm, you can even use
her for CQB. Of course, you may want to cut her shorter. That leads to the
next subject: modifying.
Sight On the full stock |
For internal upgrades,
I find that you can run an M120 spring with oiless metal bushings off of the
stock 8.4 volt 1300mAh battery with no problem at all – it is a reliable set
up. Stay away from the Systema Bore-Up cylinder kit as it requires
an M130 minimum to run, and needs an M140 to work effectively. If you want
a higher ROF (Rate Of Fire), switch to a 9.6 volt battery and nothing
higher on stock gears. Upgrade your 15 amp fuse to a 25 or 30 for less resistance
and burn outs.
(From experience the
15Amp fuse will blow if you use the M120 or 140, for a guide to internal gearbox
work on the TM AK47, read this page here , remember
that to stay within UK FPS limits, you should fit either an M100 or
an M90 spring – Arnie)
