ATI Milled receiver AK?

[Surfer22]

Hello all,
Has anyone heard about ATI making an AK on US receivers and Urkraine AK parts???

Thanks for any help!

Welcome to the group !!! :welcome:

Haven't heard anything on an AK vrom ATI.

With the way ATI is having firearm copies built for them to import, nothing would surprise me.

So I went to their website.

Nice price for a milled AK but I wish they did it right. The receiver doesn't have the rectangular milling on the sides and the lower handguard is from an AKM.

Regardless, for the price it looks nice!


Just noticed it comes with the drum!!! Great price!

I picked one of these up a couple of months ago for $400 from a guy that needed money. I like to buy the oddballs
because they interest me. These AK models are listed as ATI AT47 RIA, they have milled recievers, and are built on
unissued Bulgarian parts kits, using ER Shaw match barrels. My experience is that this gun is a very nice reliable
shooter, the barrel makes a definate difference in accuracy. ATI seems tgo have done a great job on this build.

Thanks for the update binky59. You happen to have a picture or two you can post of yours please? :D Very interested in this newer model.

who's the actual maker of the receiver??

[binky59]

ATI uses a machine shop in Penn. to machine the recievers. I'll see if I can come
up with a name and some pics.

OK.

I've been to that place, Pile upon piles of all of ATI's stuff.
Was pretty neat watching 16 AK receivers get produced at once and seeing something like 65,000 parts kits in one spot.
