This video details a severely flawed custom AK build, identified as a Yugoslavian M70 B1 parts kit assembled on a poorly bent receiver flat. Despite critical errors in riveting, receiver bending, and hardware, the rifle surprisingly held correct headspace. Range testing revealed significant feeding issues due to a warped receiver and loose magwell, though the AK platform's inherent durability allowed it to cycle.
Brandon Herrera's first AK build class focuses on teaching enthusiasts to construct their own AK rifles from parts kits. The course covers essential gunsmithing techniques, including receiver types, trunnion installation, barrel press-fitting for headspacing, and riveting using hydraulic presses. The class culminates in range testing of the completed firearms.
