mka akdal 1919

[moonshine 9]

UPDATE: They shipped a stage two replacement and totally screwed up the packing, it got damaged: the charging handle was crammed into something hard UPS cross country ground delivery and was so bent by the time i got it it jammed on the first pull rearward and scrapped the lower charging handle groove. Feed up i sent a nasty gram email and once i talked to the owner, he said he was offended. I think it must have been something i said about sending a monkey into outer space and maybe you could train a monkey how to package a gun fur shipment. still waiting for a care free day at the range with that new MKA 4 months later. sent #2. back waiting on #3.

thats a shame the gun sounds great exept for their flaws.

It's not for the faint of heart

But if you are a competent gun smith and are willing to chop up the gun, it's pretty cool :-)

I got one a ways back ...Dont believe all the drama alot of people say about this sg..If you break it in right you willl not have any issues with it ..I have 4 10 rounds mags and shot bird/buck/slug and only had FTF and FTE on the 1st mag when the sg was bnib. I love it but dont love how it likes to eat money. Ive changed out the butt stock so I can fit it in my rifle bag. Several 3 gunners say its superior to the saiga. Ive never owned or built a saiga but While I was in Iraq I did carry a benelli m4 which I loved but I think I would have been happy with a MKA, However due to the design flaws I wouldnt use it as a main weapon for combat. The MKA is based of a remington 1100 internals. It is NOT a quick field strip sg. Takes a few tools more depending on setup for take downs. The sights SUCK from factory is also another flaw. They are synthetic polymers as most of the gun is. The sights will need re adjusting often since they are just attached to the barrel. I have hit foot round steel plates at 100 yards with these sights but changing them is nice. Also to change the pistol grip and buttstock you need to cut it off the lower receiver . I did mine with a hack saw and it came out nice. The pistol grip is kinda big from my hand but I have yet to change it out. One other thing I hate about it is the safe switch since it is in a synthetic polymer hull becomes wore out and loose .you can tighten it but it will go loose again . However I love it but the people at the range next to me hate it sine it launches the shells far and hits more people to my right. Also the BB they have for it sucks and I hope someone makes a new style for it
