Kalashnikov Kali-103 7.62X39, 16.33″ Barrel, Red Finished, 10rd

(California Compliant)

Kalashnikov USA’s KR-103 is a 100% American-made AK-pattern rifle that retains the robust simplicity of Mikhail Kalashnikov’s original design. The KR-103 is largely based on the Russian AK-103 – an enhanced version of the AK-47 and one of the last rifles that Mikhail Kalashnikov had directly overseen the development of. Both the AK-103 and KR-103 have been augmented with modern innovations, with Kalashnikov USA going to great lengths to ensure the KR-103 met the original Russian specifications. One of the KR-103’s more notable features is its forged trunnion, which undergoes an advanced manufacturing process that aligns the grain structure of the metal with the shape of the part for remarkable density, strength, and a long service life. The KR-103’s barrel is produced using the most advanced cold-hammer forging process available, before being chrome lined to resist rust/corrosion as well as enhancing the rifle’s reliability. The barrel is topped with a vcompensator/flash hider hybrid muzzle device. In addition to minimizing muzzle flash, compensator/flash hider significantly reduces hefty recoil and muzzle rise of the 7.62x39mm cartridge to a level on par with 5.56 NATO. The compensator/flash hider is removable and can be replaced with other muzzle devices or suppressors featuring a M24x1.5 RH thread pitch. Another prominent feature of the KR-103 is a side rail for the installation on an optics mount. Kalashnikov USA offers a wide assortment of side rail mounts, but the KR-103 is also compatible with the vast majority AK-type aftermarket and military-surplus optics mounts. Other features of the KR-103 is an upgraded stock. This particular model’s stock is custom fitted and made from Italian Minelli Beech wood, giving the KR-103 a classic and iconic appearance. In addition, the KR-103 offers the same legendary reliability that all AK-pattern rifles share, ensuring flawless operation in virtually any environment or condition.
