Microgunner Posted September 3, 2009 Report Posted September 3, 2009 Ellett Brothers Wholesale just got a batch in. Anyone have any experience with them? I have a GSG-5 and like it. I'd think the AK-47 would be in the same league. They offer the polymer stock with lots of picatinny rails or the traditional wooden stock, both the same price. Should I treat myself and which one?
steel609 Posted September 4, 2009 Report Posted September 4, 2009 I always liked the looks of an AK, and with GSG's reputation, it should be a fine weapon.As for which stocks, I'm kind of a traditionalist and like the wood stocks. But, the tactical stocks would be a cool addition as well.Ok.....so I'm no help. :-\
Microgunner Posted September 4, 2009 Author Report Posted September 4, 2009 Yep, I'm leaning toward the wood myself, if I order one.
Microgunner Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Posted September 10, 2009 Just ordered me one with wood furniture.
steel609 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 One of my local shops has the AK with wood stocks.I'm impressed with it compared to my Armscor AK22.
Microgunner Posted September 17, 2009 Author Report Posted September 17, 2009 Not as nice (robust) looking as I'd hoped. Much more toy like than their GSG-5. Ordered mine with the 24rnd. amgazine, came with the 2 rnd (yes two) magazine????? Been on teh phone trying to get a replacement. I'll let y'all know how it shoots.
Microgunner Posted September 17, 2009 Author Report Posted September 17, 2009 The guy at ATI said the 2 shot magazine was for the German market only. Was accidentally shipped with my rifle. Repalcement 24 round magazine is on the way.
asmurff Posted September 17, 2009 Report Posted September 17, 2009 Pretty cool looking, glad you got the magazines squared away.
Madhouse Posted September 20, 2009 Report Posted September 20, 2009 Cool-looking unit!2-round?!? LOL, I wonder why they did that...
Microgunner Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Posted September 24, 2009 Cool-looking unit!2-round?!? LOL, I wonder why they did that...Well, the 2 rnd mag was intended for the German market only according to the importer so I'd guess it's because of some oppresive German law.
imschur Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 I want one of these. I need to see if it is CT legal.
Microgunner Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Posted September 24, 2009 I want one of these. I need to see if it is CT legal.If you'd scrape off all the bumps it'd probably be legal in CT. They don't like bumpy guns in New England, I've heard.
imschur Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 you got that right. We have an evil feature law. You can only have two of the five evil features.1. Flash Supressor2. High Cap Mag3. Pistol Grip4. Collapsible Stock5. Bayonet LugSilly laws

High Cap Mag3. Pistol Grip4. Collapsible Stock5. Bayonet LugWell, it has no flash supressor, collapsible stock or bayonet lug, so maybe it's legal as it comes out of the box.Silly lawsWell, it has no flash supressor, collapsible stock or bayonet lug so, maybe it's legal as it comes from the box.
imschur Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 I was wondering what was at the end of the barrel. So thats just a turned profile then?
Microgunner Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Posted September 24, 2009 I was wondering what was at the end of the barrel. So thats just a turned profile then?It's just a screw on attachment that camoflages the .22 bore. It could be replaced with a flash supressor or muzzle brake I believe.
Microgunner Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Posted October 1, 2009 The replacement 24 round magazine just arrived from ATI. Took exactly 2 weeks from date of call. Now I'm gonna try the new Kalashnakov out.,

Microgunner Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Posted October 1, 2009 Not yet. Looking foward to it.
Microgunner Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Posted October 3, 2009 Fired the Kalashnikov this morning. About 250rnds of cheap Remington bulk Golden Bullets. All shots standing at 15 yards. Only one malfunction, a FT Eject. Was grouping about 2", but I wasn't really trying to wring out it's accuracy potential. Just firing for function. It handled great. Magazine easy to load. I gotta say, it was a lot of fun to shoot and I can't wait to give it a real workout. It's a keeper...so far.
imschur Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 Thanks for the update. My wallet is beginning to twitch
