nope. Takes away the funk. Its like having a USA made beretta. You dont quite feel like Riggs with it.
Explain this to me regarding Milled AKs.

What type of machine do they finish the forging on? A mill.
I forgot who said it, but it's like this for me...(I'm paraphrasing)...
Milled AK's are great for people who buy them and put them in the safe and look at how pretty they are, but then they go shoot them and find out that they shoot like every other AK. Then they sell them and buy a bunch of stamped WASR's and are happier than ****.

that does happen a lot. I dont care what the receiver is made of. As long as its an AK im happy. Im just not paying the price they are asking for them.
It seems to me that there would be a significant amount of metal loss and time spent in milling an AK receiver than with an AR - which should drive the price up due to the cost of the raw block of metal being larger and "labor" taking longer.
Either that or AR's > AK's
Either that or AR's > AK's
Then make them out of stamped receivers. Dammit man.
I believe milled AKs are drop forged as well.

Not exactly my first rodeo.
