I've never understood stuff like this my entire adult life. I mean, I get that it looks similar to such and such and that 22's are fun but what gives? Reminds me of when Mossberg crammed a plinkster action into an AR looking "chassis" to hop onto the "tactical" market.
Is it a lack of manufacturing capability, import laws, trademark issues, etc as to why stuff like this isn't produced in a centerfire caliber?

For $200 you can get a conversion kit for your stamped AK.
Wonder if 5.45 is actually a .22 barrel? That is the conversion kit I'd like to see.Quote:

Tight fit is probably why there aren't AK-74 conversion kits everywhere. I'm just not crazy about barrel inserts personally.Quote:
