Holy crap lots of questions. Thanks to all those that complemented the AKs.

It's my "nickname", a common name for those named Alexander.

See here (switch to Cyrillic encoding in your browser):

"Aleksandr (Александр) = Sasha (Саша), Shurik (Шурик) "

Perhaps, as earlier AKM's did use wood pistol grips. Problem is they're a real pain in the ass in airsoft form. Especially for stamped receivers. So that won't be happening. Although I have considered doing that for "Rusty", but once again, pain in the ass.

Hah, I can't compete with Inokatsu/RMW kits, those are all stamped steel, my AK's still have alloy bodies and TM compatibility. He also has real steel mags converted to airsoft, which I don't have... yet.

There IS a folding stock on the small AK...

Yes, but you won't get it back.

I'll be using "Rusty" with GP steel mags, and a Chicom chest rig.

AKM also gets steel mags, as well as a set of bakelites, an M22 Russian vest, and Berezka camo.

Cheers,
Шурик
