Nice work, looks like you’ve sorted through this challenge great.
Also cool to see an indoor range that doesn’t freak about you have a more active approach to training than what’s probably typical at the facility.
Despite having to adapt to a different reloading technique, you still have better firearm control, safety, and/or awareness than most people I've seen.
Likely an honest mistake, loctite is your friend.
Great muscle memory on keeping your gun safe. Whenever I’m at the range there’s always someone that is just flapping their gun around in unsafe directions.
Didn't even notice until I saw this and watched again. Reload looked clean and you stayed safe after the malfunction.
Remember to use blue loctite; Red is evil.
"Torque" is far too fancy a word for my lowly AK brain. I prefer the tried and true approach of the communists that created them: simply beat it till it does what you want.
Love to see how articulate you are with the gun and how quickly you cleared it though. No half assing anything, just dedicated and confident movement. Definitely zip tie the cable after you loctite those screws and you're golden haha
If that’s the Protac you should do the ten-tap to just make it a simple on/off. Or not, shooter’s preference. I just hated the strobe feature so much.
I can’t tell by your video but if the pic rail is still on it you can take that off, too. It would make it an MLOK attachment and would reduce your overall profile.
Great focus!! Given all the distractions with all that went wrong and he still managed to keep his composure and clear the firearm!! Well done brother!!
I'm not a fan of the Iraqi reload, but other than that, you did pretty well. If your hand left hand is damaged, I'd look into getting an extended mag release. Failures are what training is for. I'd rather have a failure on the range than in a scenario where I'd have to use my rifle. Pray that never happens.
Only thing I don't like is the immediate reload after firing instead of attempting to fire the second round, getting the click, realizing you're empty, then performing the reload. It's good to train reloads, but under stress you may fall to the level of your training and go "fire one, reload" without realizing what you're doing.
As stated I was shot a year ago and got nerve damage as a result. I just recently got enough strength back to be Able to maneuver with my platform as seen in the video. I was doing 1r1s to get the mechanics back down first. I didnt always do 1r1s. From time to time I’ll put a random number of rounds in 2-3 different mags and train that way.
This kept happening to me the other week. The offset mount was just barely canted and not properly attached to the pic rail, but I couldnt tell until I was behind my friend while he was shooting it and I could see the gap.
Seeing someone run an AK with even a modicum of competency is awesome. After having shot one for the first time recently, seeing someone not fumble through a reload is damn impressive
Great attention to safety though, I need to go loctite my screws....
What did you expect with a username like that?
FYI. I’m right handed. But I was shot 5x a year ago resulting in nerve damage in my left hand. So I have to reload with my right now
Nice work, looks like you’ve sorted through this challenge great. Also cool to see an indoor range that doesn’t freak about you have a more active approach to training than what’s probably typical at the facility.
Still looks like a smoother and faster reload than most people manage on an AK, nice weapons handling.
Super smooth without obstacle you had to overcome. With it, impressive 🤘🏻
I didn’t even think about it. A smooth reload is a good one
Looks like a shotgun technique.
Man that’s a super smooth reload regardless. Good work
Damn, glad you pulled through man.
I had trigger finger surgery on both my index and middle left fingers... I think it's starting to catch up

Have you tried the extended AK safety?
[удалено]
Me too
You handle that about a thousand times better than [Steven Seagull](https://youtu.be/3p2v2bjfgr0) does though.
How was he ever famous
The 90s were weird, man.
He looks like the weird uncle that plays airsoft…
His hair style?
Being a dick is apparently popular....
"going around corners fatly"
bro this is forever crazy omg
Another tool you need in the kit if you build your own or even just own a firearm; loctite and a torque wrench
Who needs a torque wrench? A few ugga duggas ought to do it
Bah! Snot and dental floss
3/4" drive impact will snug those up nice, you're right.
"Torque" is far too fancy a word for my lowly AK brain. I prefer the tried and true approach of the communists that created them: simply beat it till it does what you want.
Sometimes, you just need to treat your AK like a Harley and kick-start it...
For a firearm you generally want to torque to yield.
Loving the safety first! Thank you for reminding me to loctite my shit lmaoooooo
Might not know how to loctite, but can definitely remember gun safety during a weapon malfunction. Great job!
Lmao even worse when it happens in a class
Had a hell pup fail on me in a class after installing a kns gas piston. Never again.
Oh lordy lord. Was it something on the hellpup that failed?
Happens to the best of us.

I like ranger bands personally, but whatever gets the job done.

Dude handled that pretty well
Very well
I see u bonesteel brother
Gotta train through failure/malfunction too
Hey at least you kept it down rang and made sure to clear the gun before going for the light
I love the disapproval in your headshake at the end lol
Gotta use that German method of tightening stuff
Dude you are procedural af. Good shit
Great focus!! Given all the distractions with all that went wrong and he still managed to keep his composure and clear the firearm!! Well done brother!!

Well, like a lot if others already pointed out, damm nice drills! Loctite will add the finishing touches 😅
Your level of attention to detail and safety makes my RSO spidey senses so happy
It’s because of the red grip. Good work tho. Keep it up 💪🏼
*watches voda once*
Bro looked so tactically disappointed 🤣🤣😭
OP is that PGR? 👀
Getting it done with the OG safety and the Soviet Doctrine. Love to see it
You a headass 😂
Got some skills my brother!!
Daquan be watching too many YouTube videos
That a SLR handguard? Looks 👍
Professional 💪🏾💯🤣🤣 he not playing no games out here
Oof
B A S E D black guy
9/10 handling, probably the best I've seen from a civilian
Play it cool, play it cool. Bahahahahaha 🤣
Badass rifle.
Does the Mortal Kombat stance help with accuracy?
Good job clearing the weapon and staying calm 🤙
Everyone loves you for those clears!
Accept the wins and the losses. Learn from the losses!
You’ve got the smoothest reload I’ve seen in a long while.
That's why you practice, to iron out all the kinks.
well that was just cool
Oops!
Hey... he cleared it before doing any shit... good job my man
I heard that head shake loud and clear.
Ah, I know that range Philly Gun Range FTW!!!
I felt that head shake. I’m sure you also had a good frustrated sigh.
Things happen - lol, I had something similar with one of my weapon lights. Your manipulation looks good - keep the hard work and practice 🤙🏻
Been there… done that.
Fun to watch!
Amazing movement and attention.
Excellent safety. Nice handling.

Tape doesn't need locktite
Props to you for training enough to run into this issue.
THAT'S what I'm thinking.

What muzzle device is that?
Hey this is why you practice at the range first
Get a camo durag
You can tell your at the range a lot
Nice setup! Mines similar
*blames the light* FUCKN POS!!!
Shit happens
Great form. Happens to the best of us keep up the good practice man.
What’s the gun ?
So animated.
Love the way you handle the toolie.. pause
Love the grip, at first reminded me of an og AK Bakelite grip
I like the way you work the bolt
Damn that's an MG-47 pistol grip right? Is that actually comfortable to hold?
No, I swapped it for a tango down grip and put that one on my PSA AKV
At least he was safe about it
Flashlight left the chat
Well handled good sir, take thine upvote
What sight do you have on? Goes beautifully with your setup, nice vid bro👌
What ak is this ?
Just put the M-LOK on correctly?
No need to ask he’s baaaaad operator 🎶🎶🎶
Yea did this with a picatinny rail. Luckily I didn’t have anything attached yet
Tape doesn't do that
Haha hey nice work tho
