Kalashnikov USA KP9 / PSA AKV!
This review compares the Kalashnikov USA KP9 to the PSA AKV, both 9mm AK-style pistols. The KP9, an American copy of the Russian Vityaz, costs over $1200 and uses proprietary magazines, while the AKV uses cheaper Scorpion-style magazines. While the KP9 features a metal magazine well and a 5.5mm folding stock pin, a tilted rivet on the receiver raises quality control concerns for its price point. Both are blowback-operated firearms, but the KP9's recoil spring lacks buffers found in the AKV.
