Tokyo Marui AKM Gbbr
The Russian AKM rifle or Автома́т Кала́шникова модернизи́рованный, is the modernization of the mythical AK-47 rifle designed by Mikhail Kalashnikov that has been in service for the Russian army since 1959 and has become the most common variant of the AK throughout the world. When it comes to mass production like the pressed steel that replaces the milling of the previous model.
Tokyo Marui launches this version of the popular Russian rifle in the wake of the undeniable success of the MWS and its Z-System.
The upper cover is made of pressed steel, the body has been manufactured with the new metal alloy with which Marui works in the latest models and which has shown, both in the MWS and in its MK18 variant, that it perfectly withstands high-intensity use.
The stock of this model is made of a high-quality polymer with a specific paint treatment that allows it to give a realistic appearance of wood after digitizing the texture of the wood and printing it on a 3D surface, maintaining the original appearance. Still, purists will be pleased to know that, with minimal modifications, the replica accepts original grips, as well as real wood pieces on both the rail and stock.
As for the internal system, it has been designed by the same engineer behind the Hi Capa 5.1 so we can assume that the operation will be as exceptional as in said replicas. During the manufacturing process of this AK, numerous challenges were encountered to achieve realistic operation combined with the efficiency that characterizes Marui, and due to the operation of AK-type rifles, the Z-System could not be used, which has given such good results. given in the M4 and Type 89 family, since in the AK models the bolt stays in its forward position when firing the last cartridge, so the Japanese brand has had to create from scratch the system that it has patented as the " gas blowback machine gun AKM" and that allows that once the magazine is emptied, if the trigger is pressed once more, you will only hear the sound of the hammer "clicking" in the air, since the bolt will have advanced back to its position advanced automatically.
The mechanism, yes, can be disconnected to be able to test shots without balls, but enjoying the recoil, in the same way that in the Z-System you can press the bolt manually to do the cycle without balls.
The charger has 35 balls and is entirely molded in aluminum, something that has also been a challenge at the production level, since it has not been easy to achieve manufacturing by injection molding, and in whose process it has also been possible that the entire charger be a continuous gas tank that takes advantage of the entire curve, compared to traditional AK gas magazines that usually have a rectangular gas tank that wastes a lot of magazine space and also increases the price by having a greater number of parts to manufacture .
The replica has an impressive recoil thanks to its 19mm cylinder and, according to all the lucky ones who have been able to test it so far, the sensations are even more powerful than with the MWS model.
