The Krebs AK A Better Kalashnikov |

| The 7.62x39mm Krebs AK-47 (bottom), is king of the AKs. The AK-74 (middle) is chambered in 5.45x39mm and (top) a standard rifle. Krebs, in Clint’s opinion, is the king of the AK platform. |

Having a bit of intimate history with Mikhail Kalashnikov’s AK-47 rifle (like besides more than just owning several versions in the last 40 years), I have watched the AK evolve in the American firearms’ industry; especially in the last decade during the so-named War On Terror. Businesses have grown to include schools of instruction, manipulation, disassembly, and maintenance, as well as general and specialized construction of the rifle system. Some builders, using the term loosely, have turned a good idea into a worse rig and some have truly stepped up and forward with the AK platform. |
