Those of you AK guys who enjoy your dongs, which way does it point? Do you prefer a reverse dong or a forward dong? What feels better in your hand?

I've owned many AKs, and the only one that's ever had a dong is my AMD-65. I'm a traditionalist, so it extends forward. It's a fantastically comfortable AK to shoot.

"Regular" AKs don't benefit from dongs, and I think they look stoopid no matter which way they lean.
“Dongs” are Romanian or GTFO.

Hungarian AMD65 has a “reverse pistol grip”
 
Why tho? Every high speed operator guy says you need a little one on an AR. What's different about the AK that goes the other way?

Did St Mikhail put one on his AKs?

No?

That's why they suck. They spoil the lines of a beautifully designed object.

And FWIW I think all that bullshit on that pictured AR is useless, too. I would never put one on a semiautomatic firearm; I can't really see a use for them, generally. "But...but...but how will I know where to 'index' my hand????"

By f***ing training, that's how.
 
Why would you waste 300blk on that?
It actually makes some sense.

Cheap surplus 7.62x39 is essentially gone.

So you might as well get something that is readily available on the commercial market.

Supersonic .300 blk is ballistically pretty close to 7.62x39, so it's going to be close to the same gun.

Of the AKs I've owned, I've always had .223s. So maybe I'm not the best person to talk to about this. Ha.

There's a ton of x39 for sale here but its the same price as cheap AR ammo. About $11/20.

The prototype had an AR gas block and tube feeding a long stroke piston. I heard the russians did something similar with the groza. Is this what they put into production?

.65 a round for 300 BLACK isn't bad. Especially for this 110gr VMAX stuff that shoots very very straight. Couldn't replicate anywhere near the same level of accuracy with a x39 round from my SKS.

 
It’s threads like this that make me feel good about being an AR guy!
This. I hate AK's for many reasons and aesthetics is just one of them.
The furniture on an AK looks like some special needs kid from Moscow made it out of play-dough.
And while I know accurate AK's exist, they are rare in the wild.

The AK just screams commie "best we got... bare minimum innovation"
 
Right now I'm just running 300BLK on an 8 inch suppressed AR pistol. Would be pretty cool to have an AR dressed up like an AK with a can on it tho. 7.62x39's "cheap to shoot" days are gone aren't they?
Depends how deep tou stacked it when you considered it cheap.
