Frequently Asked Questions

How do you remove the muzzle device from an AK to install a suppressor?

To remove the muzzle device from an AK, locate the detent pin, press it down with a tool like the end of a brush, and then unscrew the muzzle device to the right (righty-loosey).

What is the purpose of the detent pin when installing a Dead Air Wolverine on an AK?

The detent pin on the AK firearm indexes into a hole on the Dead Air Wolverine suppressor. This engagement prevents the suppressor from loosening or 'walking off' during firing, ensuring a secure and stable attachment.

How do you prepare the Dead Air Wolverine suppressor for direct threading onto an AK?

For direct threading, first remove the top collar. Then, push up on the suppressor's base piece and twist it until the circular tab sits on one of the two silver pegs, exposing the internal threads for attachment.

Is it normal for threads to show on the AK barrel after installing the Dead Air Wolverine?

Yes, it is normal for some threads on the AK barrel to remain visible after the Dead Air Wolverine suppressor is tightened. This indicates sufficient thread engagement for a secure mount, and the suppressor's indexing system will prevent it from loosening.
