Shootout Test: DDI AKM47
This time we took DDI made AK, for our Shootout Test.
Shootout test is based on 3 stages: 100yds, 200yds and 300yds. 2 shooters are using the same rifle at each stage. At 100yds, points are multiplied by 1 and shooters can score maximum of 6 points each (6 hits = 6 points). At 200yds, points are multiplied by 2 and shooters can score maximum of 10 points each (5 hits x 2 = 10 points). Finally, at 300yds, points are multiplied by 3 and shooters can score maximum of 15 points each (5 hits x 3 = 15 points). Time is recorded at each stage. At the end, all points and times are calculated into the “stage average”.
DDI AKM47 Scores (average per stage):
100yds
Time: 9:95s
Points: 9 on 12 (75%)
200yds
Time: 10:12s

AKM 47 from DDI Under The Hood review!
AKM47 from DDI
Destructive Devices Industries is ready to release their newest product: their version of AKM, based on stamped receiver. This rifle is made from Hungarian surplus parts, which are in excellent condition and with matching numbers. Rifle is covered with Fenocite – this is proprietary coating process which is basically ferrotic nitro carburization. Most of steel parts on their rifle are coated that way. Interestingly enough, according to DDI, this brings surface hardness to over 64C Rockwell. When all this sounds great, there are some issues with DDI AKM. Please watch this video, to see if this may be a problem for you or not…

AK 47 Milled Receiver version from DDI Review
When we have received AK 47 Milled Receiver version from DDI (Destructive Devices Industries), we were shocked by initial quality of this rifle. DDI acquired Waffen Werks and fear was, based on previous rather poor experiences with WW, that they may not live up to expectations. So when the box with rifle was open, it was nice to see high quality finish and very nicely assembled AK. However, we all know that looks could be very deceiving…the only way to see if this DDI AK candidate has what it takes to be an AK, was to take it to the “farm” for testing…here is our review of DDI Milled Receiver AK47 with fixed stock and side rail.
