Before you go to the trouble, make sure your threads are concentric to the bore. I was going to get a can for my m92 and am damn glad I checked it first. Lots of aks and krinks are way off and you get baffle and end strikes. I've seen some aks where the bore isn't even centered in the damn barrel.

After all that if your threads are concentric you still have a noisy weapon even with the suppressor. I've shot a few with different cans and it just wasn't impressive enough to be worth it to me.

If you still want to do it, you should be able to have one ordered to your thread specs.

you'll have to handload or buy the heavier rounds and experiment.

IIRC they make 147gr "Sledgehammer" rounds.



IF you can make subsonic rounds and cycle a Full auto M14 with a can , then an AK can do it no problem.








a 5.45 gun with a decent can is nice too. sounds like a .22

Great insight there bro.
A 30 caliber can had crossed my mind for my next one but I've heard these reports before.

It really sucked when I found out I couldn't run one on the m92. I was super disapointed.

Huntertown Arms is making one specifically for the AK.
Other manufactures quit because of the thread issues where the threads werent concentric, resulting in baffle strikes.

The Huntertown compensates for this by having a lot of clearance built into the baffles.

Look for the Military Arms Channel (MAC), they have a pretty good review along with some video footage. The cans will retail for 499.

I have several on the way.

I have a Gemtech .30cal with thread adapters that works on the M1A and Chinese AK. Seems to work fine without sub-sonic ammo. Eventually, I'm going to load some sub-sonic rounds and try it out.

anyone have a AK47 krink that they run a suppressor on with an adapter?
