My birthday present came in today. What could it be?

[tnxdshooter]

What's in the box?

A PSA Ks47 of course

Look it's a hybrid


Back up sights installed


Backup sights deployed


Mag fits


The fit and finish is excellent. The upper and lower fit is very tight. The magpul pmag fits fine as does the gen m3 pmag.

Waiting on the charging handle to get here. I'm gonna order an optic tomorrow.

 

[swg1]

Review quickly please. My birthday is Monday!

Interested in getting one myself.

 

[tnxdshooter]

I did already see above.

 

[tnxdshooter]

Thus far I don't like the trigger. I'll probably swap it out.

The tree huggers thank you.

Nice!

 

[adcoch1]

Let us know how it runs, I want one too...

 

[If1HitU]

Coungratulations on your birthday present very nice.

 

[Deus Machina]

Very nice.
I opted for one of their AKs, myself, and it's a solid thing. If I was more into optics I would have gotten the KS47.
As it is, a sidemount will cover my optic requirements, and once I find a low enough sight, the TWS cover I have laying around will do that and give me a longer sight radius.
But if you like the AR ergonomics, this seems like the best of both.

I've got two ak's. One is the custom built one I posted on here previously. The other is a norinco mak90. I also have two sks m's that take ak mags. So in that regard the ks47 was a no brainer.

I can tell you it got 5 star reviews from numerous people on the PSA website. The only thing I don't like thus far is the trigger isn't all that great.

 

[tnxdshooter]

They went out of stock after I bought mine.

[nhcruffler]

Very nice. I've read good reviews about them. Please let us know how well it shoots.

 

[tnxdshooter]

Changed some stuff around

Magpul moe+ and ctr


Radian raptor charging handle


Battle arms development badass lever

 

[tnxdshooter]

I wasnt trying to sight in the green dot or the mbus sights. I was simply shooting to test function. I shot 90 rounds through it with no malfunctions.

The strung out shots are as fast as I could pull the trigger. The ragged hole and the shots in the bullseye were when I was shooting slow fire. All done at 25 yards.

Looks like you've got the makings a good one there! Been thinking about getting another rifle in 7.62x39 as I have a boatload of ammo with that round but don't really want another AK. Like that the KS-47 uses standard AK magazines too!

I got a PSA AR in 7.62x39 just before these came out. Its great, but had I known I would have waited for one of these. This is probably the best platform for shooting 7.62x39 suppressed semi-auto. AK's are too gassy. H&K 7.62x39 are based upon G3 receivers and heavy pigs. Regular AR lowers require specialized mags --- I hate all the friggin different 7.62x39 mags I have to lug to the range. These use regular Magpul AK mags, and have all the options in the world for optics and accessories. You got a winner.

 

[tnxdshooter]

I have heard these are actually even better than the cmmg mutant

 

[tnxdshooter]

Painted some magpul mags to match
