What magazine were you using and did it come with the gun?
I'm not full-auto, but the mag in the video is a Polish Beryl 5.56 mag. I ass-u-me it came with the gun, as they are fairly hard to come by on their own.
At $1300, I wish IO had put on a better stock; that appears to be the same long, hollow, chintzy thing they put on their "STG-2000" and "AK-47C" rifles.
Also, I was under the impression that the translucent Beryl mags had a metal reinforcement strip running down the front face; see the two mags in the middle:
Does the mag in the video lack that? I can't really tell.
Finally, Polish Beryl mags work just fine in Arsenal 5.56 AKs (SLR-106 etc), so I expect the reverse would be true.
The reason I'm skeptical is that I.O. tends to use less than stellar companies to outfit their rifles (UTG/tapco faux tactical junk for example). They offer an all american made magazine for the Ak47 that looks like a ((10))...which looks just like the promag version...which sucks likes a dyson.
I want one, but the $1300 is a hard pill to swallow for an AK
I do have a bonus check in December that my wife doesn't know about.
