    They are a Atlantic Firearms product line

    I'm not quite sure what that means. I like to know who built the weapons I buy, OR better stated who DIDN'T build them. Are you putting them together? is this a Century build, a Vulcan crap thing, contracted out to one of our awesome IPs? A little more info would be greatly appreciated. :)

    The rifles are a Atlantic Firearms product line and you can consider them our product and backed up by a 1 year warranty.

    Only going to do sidefolders? Any in the shop for looking/pawing before you are for real ready to sell?

    BTW, you can kinda understand why people are asking questions, I hope. Lots of bad hoodoo in the US over AKs of various sorts.

    Reviving an old thread. Just bought one of these yesterday, and am hoping they are decent shooters, if not the prettiest machines. I know absolutely nothing about AK's but always liked the look, and now's the time to buy I guess, so...

    Did anyone actually buy one of these? Am I going to be disappointed?

    Lord knows I've seen some pretty ugly/sloppy-riveted/crooked barreled AK's at shows over the years. These look pretty straight from the pics however.

    Well, the Romanian ones tend to have crooked front sights, and a lot of slop in the mag well. Hate that!! And I have to have metal mags in one of those. Kind of a purist on the retro look that way.

    From what I read though these Egyptian ones are leaps and bounds over the Romies.

    Do you guys have any with fixed stocks?

    So I finally took possession and got it to the range today - was pleased overall. It shoots tight groups, although the front sight is a bit off. Shoots about 2" left at 50', but other than that, no problems. Mag fits tight, crutch stock wasn't too bad (but I think I'll look to add a fixed stock down the road).

    Question though for Atlantic: Was this AK supposed to come with the Egyptian cleaning rod? Mine didn't come with any rod at all. I know it wasn't supposed to come with the bayonet/accessories, but I thought it came with a rod?
