Happy New Year! Please comment and like - helps to beat RU-vid algorithm lol! Support AKOU channel, shop at the AKOU store: www.AK4774.com BTW, this rifle has standard AKM pattern side rail!
I bought one of Rob's other kits recently. I just want to say that it works really well, Rob even took the time to personally respond to me regarding a mounting issue for my specific AK. A++ to Rob. If he put this kit together, then I'd trust it
Local shop had one and I snagged it. Liked it so much that when a second one came in I grabbed it too. Spoke with the owner of Riley and the barrels are also new nitrated USA made. Current production is just to test the waters to see how they will sell, so if you see one you better grab it.
I wish All AK Operators Union members a Happy New Year and I saw this when they dropped on my Atlantic Firearms daily deal and was like got to get it but I have the M77 😅
your videos helped me finally pull the trigger on getting my first akm style rifle and I could not be more thankful for all the helpful information and entertainment. And happy new year to all.
thanks for the video on these Rob. I just put one in layaway this weekend! Now theyre called the RAK308. For anyone reading this, I stumbled upon a video where a guy took Zastava m77 mags and modified them slightly and they worked fine in his milled Riley fine (just in case the surplus mags dry up or get too pricey as time goes by)
Watched this video when it came out. I have an M70 Milled and a NPAP FROM Century and had ben looking at the Zastava USA'S m77 but when I saw Primary arms made a milled version I jumed on it. Wasn't sure what scope mount I needed so I reached out to Rob for guidance and ORDERED the recon set up.This channel is Great. Love what you guys do.THANK YOU
Don’t know whether to thank Rob or be angry. This is 5th rifle I buy because of his feedback. Ak103, ak105, PSL, FEG HD18, RD m77. Looking forward to the kits you release for this rifle.
I’ve been a subscriber to AKOU for years now Rob, and when it comes to AK’s your word is golden. I still have my CAI AK63D (milled receiver Hungarian parts gun) I bought back in 2015, and I bought it based mostly on your review of the gun. To this day the AK63D has had zero malfunctions, is extremely accurate, and has had no issues whatsoever. Be well Rob, and be prepared. - Jason/Freedom Fighter Until Death/Vermont, FRA (‘FRA’, meaning “The Failed Republic Of America”)
“That Title” at the end is my first name, ‘who I am’, and the State where I live ….. the Country where I live is the FRA, “The Failed Republic Of America”, which is true. What are YOU doing for the cause of Freedom? (Most likely nothing, like the vast majority of Americans.) - Jason/Freedom Fighter Until Death/Vermont, FRA (‘FRA’, meaning “The Failed Republic Of America”)
I agree that a lot of Century Arms Guns aren’t great, but the milled AK63D Hungarian parts gun that they sold back in 2015 is a decent gun. Go back and check out AKOU review from 2015 on this particular gun. - Jason/Freedom Fighter Until Death/Vermont, FRA (‘FRA’, meaning “The Failed Republic Of America”)
Nice cleaning rod. Possibly bayo lug also? Good on Riley Defense. Underrated, don’t listen to Reddit and the other people who have never seen one much less ever owned one. Just repeat shit they heard from a guy who knows a guy that heard something 10 years ago.
Did you get a new camera or something, Rob? The shooting video looked so super clear! Really nice run, and excellent video quality. I’m not terribly interested in an M77, but I’m always happy to watch any content you bring to us. I’ve got an FAL, so while accuracy may not be as good as the M77, I’ve got my .308 bases covered. What I’d really like is a PSL! Maybe some day, a guy can dream, can’t he?
If you do get a PSL... try to get a newer one. I have been through several of them and the old ones imported in early 2000's were real hit and miss. I had one pretty decent one out of five I tried. I don't have one of the newer ones but I hear they have been pretty good and don't suffer from a lot of the same issues as the early ones. It is a cool looking rifle, but they are quite overpriced right now IMO.
@@TheREALLibertyOrDeaththatd good to know...the Zastava 5.56 mags aboslutely wont fit a Romy 74 in 5.56...I bought 4 and there is nothing I could do with them
Why not just buy a m77 from zastava? Edit....rob brought it to my attention I missed it sorry guys I didn't realize it is different. Milled receiver. Nothing wrong with options. I though it was the same exact gun.
I expected Henry Chan to show up any minute!! Looks like it's time for a speedway challenge..... I would pay $10 to see a Rob vs. Henry speedway race. Rob build vs Henry build of the M77!!! Of course Henry has to build one first.
Saw the rifle at Atlantic and was intrigued. Saw this video pop up on my feed and didn’t hesitate to order one even before watching it. BTW I borderline despise Riley for some shenanigans they pulled on my several years ago, but I’m willing to give those one a go because of the Tortort and kit build. We’ll see, but I’m excited. Thanks Rob
@AkOperatorsUnion after watching your fine video I determined to get 3 of them myself and I was Fortunet enough (had help from Kareem) to pick 3 of then up from centerfire in Versailles ky . Yesterday I am TOTALLY 1000% stunned by how well fit and smooth they are directly out of the box. Riley hit a Grand Slam Home run with this package deal. And I wouldn't have my new rifles if not foe your channel and you having enough shooting skill to show off this platform. THANK YOU!!!! Blessed day for you. Edit This video was the very first video I had ever seen from you and your channel. SHOUT OUT to you tube Al Gore Rhythm for making this possible. Lolz
Holy production upgrade Batman, your intro was a High dollar cinematography! I started getting goose bumps brother! I was hoping to see you at Shot show this year, maybe next year. If you happened to slip while walking around the Zastava booth, my bad, I was drooling over all that place! Ha ha! Keep up the good work Brother, Stay frosty!
I bought a Riley Defense and put your angry hello kitty optics setup on it about 3 years ago. I'm extremely happy with the machine. I might have to look into getting one of those m77's off ya rob.
Interestingly enough, when it came out this video inspired me to finally go ahead and do a proper M76 kit build complete with ZRAK. These Riley M77s on the Tortort receivers just popped up again and the price is far lower than even the price of parts. Atlantic just sold M76 builds on Tortort receivers last week for $1k more and they didn’t last a day. If these are half as good as Robski says, these are must haves for any AK aficionado.
This parts kit rifle is worth it. People are not understanding the receiver alone costs 60% of the price. For one to get it assembled somewhere would be north of 1800
Great video bought one right after watching, Robski man can you shoot, plus you are about the only one I have ever watched on line, that makes me say man I want to have a beer with that guy, and just talk shit, your the man!!! keep up the great content
What an absolute beast! Oh, and the rifle is great too haha. As always, excellent shooting and a great video. I keep trying to tell myself an AR10 makes more sense for a DMR setup, but this is just so much cooler.
Awesome video as always Rob! Beautiful rifle and she is a shooter 💪 would love to add one to the arsenal! Can't wait to see more footage keep up the great work and happy New Year
Hey man, Im itching to see a 5k test on a Pioneer Arms rifle if you get the time/funds. Figured I would suggest it for your concideration. And thanks as always for your stellar content. We appreciate it.
Happy New Year Rob and the AKOU audience! I'm usually not a fan of milled AKs or even RPK trunnioned and 1.5 mm sheet metal AKM platforms as in my humble opinion it is weight that could better be left off or at least used on more productive add ons. But it is justified and serves a purpose with an AK styled DMR rifle in a true rifle caliber. The weight, increased strength and rigidity are positive attributes in a 7.62 X 51 DMR and it also helps disprove that the AK platform is inaccurate. It seems to me this rifle can easily compete with the FNFAL, H&K 91 or AR 10s.
I used 168gr Federal Gold Medal. Here is my way of thinking: for that price you are getting surplus parts kit, extremely well preserved, in 308 on milled receiver...fkn win -Rob Ski
I have ani extensive thread on AK Files about my Riley Defense AK that is at 6.5k rounds. It has been a wonderful rifle. Don’t write them off because they have gotten really good these days
@BuckshotBen I can forgive Zastava for using the cheesy plastic furniture for 922R, but why they couldn't give us a flash hider like the original M77 or like Riley offers?
Using M76 (7,9mm) for last 3 years with M93 optic. Up to 800m its very good. When barrel is heated (after 20 bullets) losing little on precision. Role is as extended arm of platoon.
@@cloudmane4159 I didn't buy it, I own it in mine plattoon. Its military property. But you can find it in good condition, just gugl it. Its not above 350 dollars.
MUZZLE BREAK RECOIL PAD AND CHEEK RISER I ALSO USE A BUFFER JUST IN CASE. I AM 300 RD'S IN AS YOU SAID WE SHALL SEE IF "ENDURANCE" IT WILL MINE AND YOURS HOLDS UP
