In this episode of Whiskey & Windage, we sit down with Jim Fuller, the legendary craftsman behind Fuller Phoenix and one of the most respected AK builders in the world. Jim has spent decades mastering the art of the AK rifle, earning a reputation for precision, reliability, and purpose-built design that defines the Fuller Phoenix brand.

We dive deep into the philosophy of building rifles that last a lifetime — rifles made to be run hard, trusted, and passed down. Jim shares stories from his early days, lessons learned from the battlefield and the workbench, and his vision for the next generation of American-made AKs.

This is more than a talk about guns; it’s a masterclass in craftsmanship, legacy, and doing things the right way.

Tune in as Whiskey & Windage brings you raw, real conversations with the makers, builders, and thinkers driving the firearms industry forward.
