Kalashnikov USA Premium K-Series Aluminum AK Stocks
Kalashnikov USA have added two new aluminum AK stocks to their KUSA Premium K-Series line of AK parts and accessories. One of the new stocks is telescoping and is compatible with fixed-stock rear trunnions. The second one has no length of pull adjustment mechanism and is designed for side folding rear trunnions. Let’s take a look at the specs and features of the new KUSA Premium K-Series aluminum AK stocks.

Let us know in the comments section what you think about the new KUSA Premium K-Series aluminum AK stocks. What features do you think a modern AK stock must have? I’d love to see someone making a side folding rear trunnion stock that can be folded and locked over any or a wide variety of side scope mounts. There are some options (check the videos here, here and here) but they are for specific types of side scope mounts and/or stocks, and to my knowledge, there is no universal solution.

Looks like WOOX had an orgy with KRUK (КРУК) and COD: mobile.
Probably looks sick on a 3 gun setup, but it's also a massive snagging hazard.
I think it is pretty ugly, and agree it doesn't look comfortable. If I want a light folder I just go for the triangle folder, I quite like them actually. I'd rather they just do the outline rather than all the holes in it, looks like excessive "strengthening". Without adjustable cheek riser as well, so... meh. And why can't they make a side folding version that fits the non-folders without a huge mechanism that sticks out an inch from the rear?
I really like the quality of the K-USA arms, but some of their accessories are kind of missing the mark.
What we really want is more traditional designs and real innovations on the side. Some 5.45 offerings, and some US made 5.45 steel cased ammo that doesn't cost a ton.
