NEW 2023: The AK-12 in the M1 version

01/09/2023By Redaktion

The Kalashnikov Corporation upgrades the new AK12 to model M1 in 2023. The main changes: – Bilateral fire selector lever like AK12SP – Adjustable diopter sight similar to M4 – New adjustable cheek rest – Fixed muzzle device like AK19

The folding stock of the AK12M1 with the now adjustable cheek rest.

Revised fire selector lever, eliminating 2-round burst. It seems that there is even an additional internal safety that blocks the hammer.

Diopter 600 meter sight has a foldable L shape. The aperture diameter of the diopter is 1.8 mm. Probably a significant improvement, as the Russians mostly shoot without optics - even with the new AK12 in Ukraine, which have rails for optics, but they should be carried.

But what is most surprising is likely this handguard. If this is the final model, the Russians may switch to M-LOK. Perhaps this is just an experimental model or an export model.

By the way: Saiga PPK also switches to M-LOK.
