It's ugly, but functional ugly. That's a sort of beauty of its own.

I'd buy it. Looks Russion--like it has a job to do, does that, and doesn't care about anything else.

The whole "quad-stack" magazine thing sounds interesting...

A US company just released some for the AR. Up to 75 rounds of 5.56x45, IIRC.

I'm interested to know how it will turn out with Russia's more tapered rounds.

I saw this on a local Real Steel forum. It's meh to me but I think it'll work like it should.

Surefire has the quad stack AR mags on their site, fyi Deus.

Why bother to give it a new name when all it is is a fancy akm with a whole bunch of Tapco-esque accessories hanging off of it?

Lame reissue with a new name. Big deal

Looks like they really were hurting... But this new platform looks like it has everything that modern armies have been Dieing for.
Good thinking Izhmash.

Its starting to grow on me...will this be for sale in the states?

I think AK's like this possess the same "ugly" quality that older work trucks have. They're ugly as sin, but that only adds to their awesome, because you know it will work when you want it to, and to heck with lookin' purdy.

Also, quad stack: SHOOT ALL THE BULLETS!
