On this episode of AK-47 Radio we actually do the SKS. Simonov’s carbine, the 7.62×39 it was built around, the PTRS-41 it got scaled down from, and why the AK ate its infantry job, plus the Type 56 / M56 / M59/66 copies people actually own. Join us as we go right off the rails […]

We had a real guest last week. That was nice. It’s over now. This week the comrades catch their breath and empty the tank: leftover tisms, rifle fondling, and an extended Mi-28 spiral that nobody asked for and everyone is getting anyway. If you wanted an agenda, last episode was your episode. This one is […]

This week on AK-47 Radio, the guys are joined by Washington Gun Law to dig into the latest NFA rulings and what they mean for gun owners. Then we turn our attention to Colorado, where increasingly aggressive gun-control laws may offer a preview of what anti-gun lawmakers will try to push nationwide. From the courts […]

It’s just Will and Sam holding down the People’s Airwaves tonight, which means any semblance of structure is abandoned almost immediately. After going thoroughly off the rails, the comrades manage to drag themselves back on topic for a quick dive into the Soviet SVT-40, its history, quirks, and place in the Red Army. Then they […]

Tonight the guys give their after action report from the 2026 GOALS in Iowa. They talk about what they saw, what they liked, who they met, and their overall impressions of the show. Then they revisit some of the more controversial firearms they got their hands on, which mostly means arguing about the Stenzel SAK-21 […]

On this episode of AK-47 Radio, the comrades head behind enemy lines to revisit the early-2000s war film Behind Enemy Lines. They break down the rifles, machine guns, and military hardware featured throughout the movie, separate the fact from the Hollywood fiction, and explain why the film probably gave you a wildly unrealistic idea of […]

Tonight the guys look ahead to the 2026 Gun Owners Advocacy and Leadership Summit (GOALS), talking about what they’re excited to see, who they’re hoping to meet, and why events like this matter to the firearms community. Then, in true AK Radio fashion, the conversation goes completely off the rails as they dive into their […]

Tonight on AK-47 Radio, the comrades spend an entirely unreasonable amount of time discussing rifle grenades, their history, and why the Yugoslav-pattern AK is uniquely suited to launching them. The whole detour is, of course, Sam’s fault after he picked up a Yugoslav underfolder and immediately became incapable of talking about anything else. Along the […]

Tonight, the guys sit down with Shawn Herrin, longtime warden of We Like Shooting, ball-tist, and creater of CIV Medical. They discuss why trauma training matters just as much as marksmanship, how to build a capable medical kit, and the mindset behind being ready when things go wrong. Shawn also shares the story behind CIV Medical […]

Three idiots on the internet talk about gun stuff, provide an update on the AKR Shooting Challenge, and follow a cosmonaut who goes on a terrestrial vacation to Tatooine and comes back hating sand.
