I mean that in just looking at the gun, unless you've got a standard AK sample to compare side by side with, or you're VERY familiar with the run-of-the-mill AK, you don't notice the different stock angle on the NPAP.
I don't shoot AKs regularly, but I'm not a stranger to them, and I didn't notice the difference in the first NPAP till I shot it, with the irons.
Once I started to line up on the sights, had to scrunch way down on them, which put my cheekbone against the wood.
The different stock angle was then immediately apparent.
I've gotten cheek slap from other guns, but those were not AKs & were typically higher-recoiling calibers in different rifle types.
On the NPAP, with the cheekbone against wood, it was painful to shoot on each shot, and resulted in that bruising I mentioned earlier.
If you do have a chance to shoot one of these before you buy, I'd take the chance & find out whether the NPAP fits YOU.
I saw another Internet post not long after, where a guy was saying his father had bought one of the "new NPAPs" & it turned him against AKs because it was uncomfortable to shoot.
And they couldn't easily replace the NPAP stock with a standard angle stock.
