I was just wondering what you guys knew about the AK, because I am considering getting one. Does anyone have any expeirence with them or knows if they are good or not?

The AK is a very nice weapon indeed. I've heard nothing but good news about the gun for years now and since I got to use one last weekend I can confirm all the news is true.
The Ak is very solid and has a nice heft to it unlike some other AEG's I've handled. Even in stock form the range and accuracy is great and manages to pack quite a powerful punch to boot.
I'm sure Viking can answer any more questions you might have about the AK since he owns one.

How does it compare to some of the other AEGs (stock)?

all stock weapons are pretty much the same in velocity...the accuracy is the only major difference between stock weapons.

what about the beta spetsnaz, how is that gun? it looks like it would be really awkward to hold. The front is huge!

from what i've heard, accuracy is similar to an MP5A4...and, as always, as a stock AEG, it shoots in the 280-290 area.

Huge? Compare the standard AK handguard to the one on the Spetsnaz, and you'll notice it's actually much smaller on the Beta.... I guess it just looks beefier because of the added RIS rail.

Do they make a AKM or an AK- 74

You can't go wrong with the AK. It's the only AEG I've ever held which had only one thing remotely unrealistic in its composition - the plastic bolt handle. It's heavy, reliable... And now I want one

they make an AKM conversion kit... never heard of an AK74 kit, though.

The bolt handle is metal Ballista, it just doesn’t cock all the way back like the real thing, remember?

It's metal? Well, something about its material bugs me. I wasn't all that disappointed about it not going back all the way.

Yea its metal, the color kinda bugs me; I dunno if that’s a very accurate color but it still bugs me. Whatever metal it is it’s really light, but I have just confirmed it for the second time today its metal.
