This video details the 'junkyard prototyping' failures and successes of the AK-50 V2. Key issues included cam groove and lug failures, under-gassed operation requiring port drilling, and magazine disengagement due to recoil. Thermal expansion also caused sluggishness. Redesigned parts with improved geometry and heat treatment are shown for the next iteration.
This guide details the design and fabrication process for an improved cam lug and groove for the AK-50 V5 prototype, as presented in Brandon Herrera's Brass Valley series. It focuses on addressing design flaws in the V1 model by incorporating a roller bearing to enhance durability and ease of maintenance. The process involves CAD design, 3D printing, and integration of new components, emphasizing precision gunsmithing techniques.
