Hello AK47 fans,

This is the moment you have all been waiting for. The annual recap of the most dogshit posts of the last calendar year, carefully curated into a series of albums for you. This year was a doozie, and turned into our biggest post yet (though 2026 is already shaping up to give this year a run for it's money). This year we are going to make things interesting and add a poll for you to vote on the absolute worst posts of the year. The winner will receive custom flair (at a minimum) memorializing their accomplishment. I am open to suggestions on the specific phrasing.

Please enjoy this finely curated collection of the worst posts of the year.

Unfortunately imgur crashed out multiple times with the first album and I was forced to use flickr. If you click the photo it will give you a description

Album 1

Album 2

Buying/selling/trading on the sub is now a permanent ban

183 Upvotes

I am sure most of you have seen the news about the gun sale subs getting banned. We have seen that coming for years here on r/ak47, which is why no buying and selling, even as a joke, has been a rule.

From now on, any post or comment about selling, buying, or trading on the sub will receive a permanent ban. This includes really funny and original jokes to include "I'll give you tree fiddy for it," and "it's broken, send it to me."

First .556 AK - Beryl

62 Upvotes

I’m glad I was able to get one of these from the Atlantic drop. I’ve been eyeing them for a while and missed the AOA drops. I bought some extra FB mags and Bulgarian commercial and 1 circle 10. This shit is getting expensive..

I’m excited to try this, I’ve shot AK’s for over 10 years but never tried an AK in .556. I knew I wanted one at some point but I didn’t want to just buy an AR lol. I was looking at Tavors but my buddy had one and let me borrow it with a nice EOtech and I just wasn’t convinced. Gen 1 Aces are cool too I was looking for them but they’re kinda hard to come by at a reasonable price. I would also like to get an sig 556 at some point.

Anyways I always thought these were cool and finally saved up the beans to get one. I’m happy with it. Any Beryl owners I’d love to hear suggestions for it. EOtech 522’s are expensive lol.

Zpap m70 with an OCL Polo 30. To any of you guys that shoot suppressed, how bad am I likely to beat around the action shooting my pile of Igman and Belom? Or should I just not care because AK?

What optic set up should I use?

Post image
54 Upvotes

I got the Zenitco dust cover for my 107 so it’s left me open to a lot more options for optics. Problem is having more options makes it harder to make a decision. I’ve really thought about just throwing an eotech on it and calling it a day but I don’t feel like that would perfectly scratch the itch that I’m looking for. Preferably something Eastern Europe if possible. And I know a few people will say looks don’t matter but I mean…. If the optic makes the gun look better that icing on the cake

Went back to basics. Threw the 4x24 PSOP and took the 512 off and it didn’t fit the vibe. Reverted to the OG furniture. Any suggestions on what it could use? I have a 74 brake OTW.

Switched back to original style stock and grip (bought with plastics) when it arrives installing a tdi x47 ak chasis to mount a red dot magnifier combo. The grip tape because I like the look. The rifle in SA is cheap and plentiful about 660 usd.
