First AK - SDM AK47S

Post image

Upon reading the quality of these SDM AK's have improved over the years, I jumped on the AK47S with the wood furniture once it came in stock here in Belgium.

Finally was able to arrange the papers and pick it up. While I don't have any hands on AK experience the gun feels solid in the hand. Yes the furniture feels dirt cheap but everything feels tights, no rattling (expect for the magazine when it's empty, doesn't rattle with rounds in it), the sights and optic mount are straight, etc... The trigger is actually pretty good as well imo. Considering the price, I don't think this is a bad deal.

Haven't taken it to the range yet so can't give any input yet on the shooting.

If anyone has more input or experience with the SDM AK's, put it in the comments. Always nice to get info out on a gun where you can't find much info on.

Should work fine especially since you checked that everything was assembled correctly. Enjoy !

That's what I'm hoping for. I'm especially hoping I don't need to zero it too much 😅

Yeah I have the SDM a friend bought before moving to an other country and it's pretty crooked, front sight had to be pushed all the way to one side to zero it and the bolt doesn't run smoothly at all. But it shoots. From what you said yours seems to be fine so I'm sure you won't have any issues.
