Good, although the ear muffs I was using were too big, kept hitting the stock so it was hard to aim. Gonna have to get more of the foam ear plugs for when I shoot it. It also needs to be sighted in badly, shoots a little to the right, even at 25 yards.
Other than that, it doesn't kick much, and it pretty fun. Gonna go through ammo quick though

Nice man, I'll say one thing about the mags though... Look for used Milsurp ones from eastern europe or chinese stuff. The polymer mags are great for the range, but if your ever doing dynamic drills with them the locking lugs are prone to breakage if you and your rifle come down on the mag. If your even going from a kneeling to prone stance it can happen, and having a broken mag in that AK turns even the unstoppable commie firearm of choice into a paperweight. You want metal, or at least metal lined feed lips, metal body.... basically if a mag has a metal option for it you want it. There's a ton of good **** out there for them. My Arsenal built AK is getting an ultimak gas tube mount in the somewhat forseeable future so I can run a low profile red dot up front. I was playing around with it in low light and came to the conclusion that the irons indeed suck ***** when it starts to get dark.
I wouldn't be concerned with ammo choices with it. Corrosive stuff isn't going to melt your barrel out of it like some people will imply, just clean your **** after you shoot the corrosive stuff. Windex with ammonia is pretty good for neutralizing the salts and bad **** in the milsurp ammo if it's going to be a little while before you get to clean it up.
Anywho, nice rifle though... treat her right!

Shooting guns is very safe man, especially at a good range. There is one up near me that is pretty damn cool, been twice now and the range guys are always nice and they don't hassle you over stupid stuff. If you ever wanna go, let me know I think you'd like it. I know you don't really like guns, but it's really fun.
