I was under the impression that an AK is an AK pretty much. Recently saw a "quality" Russian made that wouldn't take a Polish or Turkish mag. Any idea why?
Didn't they make the mag opening a different size during the "assault weapons ban" days? I seem to remember something about this but not enough to say for sure.
Saiga perhaps? Have to convert those to take the excellent ComBloc standard magazines.
My thoughts exactly. The Saigas have to be converted to work with double stack Hi cap mags.
There is some variance in AK mag widths. They probably redid the mag opening using a slightly narrower mag and wanted a very tight mag well to magazine fit.
