This review details the Krebs Custom SOCOM Saiga .308, a heavily modified AK platform rifle. It highlights the rifle's robust Krebs rear sight rail system and Mako Defense RPK handguard, both designed for stability and ease of use. Accuracy testing with iron sights achieved an impressive 0.75-inch group at 100 yards using Hornady TAP 168gr match ammo, showcasing the rifle's potential despite an average group size of 1.5 inches.
The Krebs KTR-08 is presented as an upscale AK-47 variant, featuring significant upgrades like AR-15 style sights and safety, and a Vltor stock. However, its high price point (around $1400 in 2009) and heavy weight (8.8 lbs unloaded) are major drawbacks, leading to a mixed assessment. While well-made, a standard AK might be a more practical choice for most users.
