Key Features
- Milled Steel Receiver: A solid, one-piece billet provides superior rigidity and a smoother action compared to stamped receivers. I’ve put a few hundred rounds through this, and you can feel the difference in the cycling.
- 10.6″ Barrel in 7.62×39: This barrel length keeps the pistol compact and lively while still allowing the potent round to perform effectively at typical engagement distances.
- Magpul Furniture & Magazine: Ships with modern Magpul MOE pistol grip and handguard, plus a reliable 30-round Magpul PMAG. It’s a great out-of-the-box setup that fits well and feels solid.
- No Gunsmithing Required: This pistol is ready to run. The build quality means you can take it from the box to the range with confidence—just add ammo and eye/ear protection.

Look, the milled receiver is the star here. It adds a bit of weight—coming in around 6.8 pounds unloaded—but that weight soaks up recoil and gives the whole platform a dense, overbuilt feel. The 7.62×39 round from a 10.6-inch barrel still packs a serious punch, making this a formidable tool for defense or just a blast at the range. The included Magpul PMAG is a trusted standard, and the furniture offers a solid, ergonomic grip right from the start. At $890.45, you’re paying for that milled construction and a complete, modern package.
Who This Pistol Is For
This C39v2 is for the shooter who appreciates AK reliability but wants a step up in build quality from a stamped gun. It’s ideal for someone wanting a compact, powerful truck or home defense firearm that’s also range-friendly. If you’ve handled standard WASR-style rifles and wondered about a more premium feel, this milled pistol answers that question. It also suits the enthusiast looking for a unique, high-quality AK-pattern pistol to build a braced or SBR setup around, as it’s compatible with many standard AKM pattern stocks and braces for later customization.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The milled receiver construction is exceptionally solid and promises long-term durability. The Magpul furniture and magazine provide immediate modern ergonomics and reliability. The 7.62×39 caliber in a compact format offers serious stopping power. Its overall build quality feels premium, justifying its position in the market.
Cons: The milled design makes it heavier than stamped AK pistols of similar size. The price point at $890.45 is above entry-level AK options. The 10.6-inch barrel, while handy, does sacrifice some muzzle velocity compared to a full 16-inch rifle. Aftermarket handguard options may require specific fitting for the milled receiver pattern.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this pistol compatible with standard AK-47 magazines?
A: Yes, it uses standard AKM-pattern magazines. The included Magpul PMAG is a great start, but it will also reliably accept surplus steel mags, Bulgarian polymers, and other commercial options that fit the AKM spec.
Q: Can a brace or stock be attached to this pistol?
A: The rear of the receiver is configured for a standard AKM stock/brace trunnion. You can attach a compatible stabilizing brace to it without modification—just ensure you follow all current ATF regulations regarding pistol braces. For a stock, you would need to go through the NFA process to register it as a Short-Barreled Rifle (SBR).
Q: What’s the real-world difference between a milled and stamped receiver?
A: Milled receivers are machined from a solid block of steel, making them thicker, heavier, and more rigid. This often translates to slightly better accuracy potential and a smoother action feel. Stamped receivers are formed from sheet steel—lighter and historically more common. The milled version is generally considered a more durable, premium construction method.
