I noticed you mount your optics on top of the carrying handle, I don't see that too often so I have to wonder if some drawbacks exist to that setup?

Im not speaking for the OP of the pic in question, but addressing the question of the optic mount. My understanding of the reason to NOT put optics on a carry handle of an M4 is that it results in the optic being mounted so high that its nearly impossible to obtain a proper cheek weld on the butt stock.

I know I personally never have and never would own an M4 or any of its variants that had a permanently attached carry handle for just that reason. Gimme a flat top with an integrated rail every single time ! Way to much versatility to not have it.

Thanks for explaining. Personally I like the idea of an AR-15 with a total flap-top, front/rear BUIS that fold flat and some kind of optic. Best of all worlds IMO.

I love bayonets. They make great stocking stuffers around the holidays too.

I used to have that one on the right... when I was a kid. Seriously... bought it at C&D Coin and Gun when I was like... 15. No earthly idea where it is now.

Beautiful AK you have there!

Is that a Romanian or Polish AK?

Thank you. It is a Polish AKMS by Koraynovich Arms. I love it.


Polish AKM bayonets are pretty common as of now- apex or cope's. I actually had bought one a few years back before I ever knew I'd get a Polish AK.
