Thanks Matt! Good stuff. You just reminded me that I've been wanting to pick up a couple of MASH hooks.

A few pics of the new AKARS top rail cover by Parabellum LLC. Replaces the AK top cover and rear sight leaf but has built in irons that replace the leaf. I picked this rail over the TWS mainly because the TWS uses a peep for irons and I don't care for them on my AK's, I prefer the standard notch sight. Pics, rail seems really nice so far but not ready to do a review just yet PO 4x24P  PK01-Vi (Cowitnesses nicely FYI)  Beat to hell Konus MRD    The rear notch for the irons is much wider than expected, actually about the same width as the FSB ears  Z |

Very interesting. Looking forward to hearing what you think after you've had a chance to work with it a while.

We'll see how this runs in action but in concept I am a big fan. My experience with the AKSU and stormwerkz mounted to the top cover has been stellar, and I think the AK200 concept rifle plus the Saiga 12 version 030 hinged covers have excellent reputations in Russia.
I doubt I'll have time to do a serious review until mid or late January though, work is crazy, but this is something I have been looking forward to.

That paint job looks like it was made to match Badlands!

I have been thinking about a 5.45, but keep asking myself..."do I need another caliber?" I haven't answered myself yet.

I thought about that a lot myself, but remember this: 5.45x39 is the last cheap, quality surplus caliber available right now. It is easy to get a SHTF stash with this caliber!

I generally do not like having multiple calibers. However, the 5.45 was/is an exception for me. The price of ammo is hard to pass up, especially for training purposes. Other than mags and caliber, its the exact same gun as my 7.62's, down to virtually every detail, but especially in handling and operation. This allows me more affordable practice and training, with zero difference between weapons.
