This video explores the Dead Foot Arms underfolding stock kit for the AR-15 platform, aiming to replicate AK-style compactness. While the kit allows for an underfolder aesthetic and can be fired folded, it causes malfunctions due to port cover interference. The host details the unique engineering required, including a shortened buffer tube and specialized BCG, highlighting the trade-offs between AK functionality and AR platform integration.

Palmetto State Armory is expanding its JAKL platform with new caliber options, including a .300 Blackout and a 7.62x39 variant (AKL). The 13.7-inch .300 BLK JAKL features a pinned and welded muzzle device to achieve a 16-inch legal length. The AKL uses a JAKL upper on a KS-47 lower, accepting standard AK magazines, and is chambered in 7.62x39mm.

The traditional advantage of the AK-47 over the AR-15 in terms of compact underfolding stock capability has been neutralized by the Dead Foot Arms underfolding stock adapter. This innovation allows AR-15 platforms, including hybrids like the KS-47 chambered in 7.62x39mm, to achieve similar compactness. The adapter enables a functional underfolding stock, allowing the rifle to be fired even when folded.

This video demonstrates a ballistic gel test using raw chickens to compare the terminal performance of 7.62x39 and 5.56mm calibers. Using Hornady SST Ballistic Tip ammunition from 16-inch barreled KS-47 and Stag Arms AR-15 platforms, the test reveals significant differences in tissue damage and penetration. The 7.62x39 round exhibited more destructive effects, causing greater fragmentation and deeper penetration compared to the 5.56mm round in this specific test scenario.

This 2024 review assesses the viability of the .300 Blackout cartridge, particularly its comparison against 7.62x39mm. While .300 Blackout excels in suppressed applications and AR-15 platform compatibility, its high cost and safety risks (chambering in 5.56 rifles) are significant drawbacks. The 7.62x39mm offers more power and lower cost but requires specialized platforms. Ultimately, the reviewer prefers 5.56 for general AR use but acknowledges .300 Blackout's niche for suppression enthusiasts.

The PSA KS-47 offers a compelling blend of AR-15 ergonomics and AK-47 magazine compatibility, addressing a common pain point for 7.62x39mm AR platform enthusiasts. Its design facilitates easy use of standard AK magazines, enhancing reliability over specialized AR magazines. While featuring a direct impingement system, it provides a familiar AR-15 manual of arms and an improved magazine release.
