AK47. A combination of letters and numbers that quite possibly evokes more emotion than any other alphanumeric name in the history of our world. The ubiquitous AK47 has come to symbolize liberty, freedom, hope, and defense. It has also come to symbolize tyranny, oppression, and terrorism. No matter the association, the AK47 is the most commonly encountered military rifle worldwide. It has proven itself for combat, Homeland Defense, hunting, and good old fashioned recreation. In recent years, we have seen the Kalashnikov become more fluent in the tactical language of today's Law Enforcement and Military circles, with a multitude of rail systems, stocks, and grip options available.
Over the years, the aftermarket for the AK pattern rifles has really stepped it up. No longer are we tied down to the wooden furniture that is better suited for smaller statures. A whole slew of butt stocks, hand guards, rail systems, and pistol grips as currently available to modify the Kalashnikov. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean that all of them are as tough as the gun they're designed for. A lot of these components are very inexpensive, and for the most part, you get what you pay for. On the other hand, playing the used market and/or looking out for good deals, one can put together a quality package that best suits their needs, sensibilities and aesthetics.
