Well, your mileage may vary. I just never thought it was a good idea because it’s very frequently reported. Could just be user error, cheap AKs, or cheap ammo in those case-head separation reports, though. Hell, my Yugo M48 does weird shit, and it’s a Mauser-pattern bolt-action, one of the most robust actions on Earth.

I made sure that the rifle was properly headspaced before firing, and I don’t reload, so the chances for case head separation are minimal.  
While I don’t typically buy brass cased 7.62x39, I haven’t had a single malfunction with this or any of my other AK patterned rifles.

If your rifle is separating case heads with any degree of frequency you need to take a close look at your action, because something is not right with it. As long as your gas block and barrel are made right an AK can take brass cased ammo without any issue. Steel is just the standard because the Soviets were cheap and didn’t want to drop the cash for brass shells.

That has nothing to do with it. I’m talking about case-head separation. An AK’s ejection cycle is far too vicious and powerful for brass. You get a soft case the bolt will rip the bottom portion of the case off, leaving the neck of the case stuck in the chamber. If you don’t notice and fire the next round out-of-battery you are S.O.L.

Using brass-cased ammo in an AK? Bad choice.
 
Then again, if you can afford to put money into something like this, you can probably afford to get your gun repaired/replaced if it blows up.

Thanks for the feedback.
 
I’ve been getting quite a few comments on the furniture color being off, and you’re right. For some reason it came out far too dark during the dyeing process.

That bayonet with serrations is banned for usage as per Geneva Convention. Now that that’s out of the way, this kalash is impressive looking. Although, the you could’ve given the furnishings greenish colour for a more Changeling aesthetic.

That bayonet looks awesome, although personally I would’ve gone for a bit of a brighter color for the hand guards and grip, maybe match it to the bayonet wrap if you can, AK rifles look really good with a little tinge of color.
