Good Friday everyone, as you all probably know by now, I am not a parts supplier, the only thing I sell is my services, I am a fully equipped AKsmith and I love what I do. I started this page as a information sharing page for any and everything AK. I can assemble your parts kits, do just about any kind of AK work from the smallest thing to all out custom work. So if you need anything from general questions to complete weapons, give me a shout. If you have pictures, information, interesting stories or anything pertaining to the AK PLEASE post them here.
Thanks so much

Ok, this is my first installment if knowing the AK. I'm sure most of you guys know most of this but I find this stuff to be great for reference. Feel free to interject your thoughts or opinions, this is partly a knowledge sharing site to. So here it goes, lets learn where the AK started.
Early variants (7.62×39mm)

Issue of 1948/49 – The very earliest models, with the Type 1 stamped sheet metal receiver, are now very rare.
Issue of 1951 – Has a milled receiver. Barrel and chamber are chrome plated to resist corrosion.
Issue of 1954 (1955) – Lightened milled receiver variant. Rifle weight is 3.47 kg (7.7 lb).[5]
AKS – Featured a downward-folding metal stock similar to that of the German MP40, for use in the restricted space in the BMP infantry combat vehicle, as well as by paratroops.
AKN (AKSN) – Night scope rail.[66]
Modernized (7.62×39mm)

AKM – A simplified, lighter version of the AK-47; Type 4 receiver is made from stamped and riveted sheet metal. A slanted muzzle device was added to counter climb in automatic fire. Rifle weight is 2.93 kg (6.5 lb)[6][N 2] due to the lighter receiver. This is the most ubiquitous variant of the AK-47.
