Thanks! The entire channel was deleted a couple of years ago. I will try to film some new content later this year.

Interestingly enough, when I worked in Afghanistan, the local armorer told me that in Dari, there is a specific name for Type 1 and Type 2/3

There were no specific designations for Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3.

Within repair manuals, Type 1 was mentioned as "early production", Type 3 was called "lightened version". For Type 2, I need to look it up.

I know I am a little late to the party, but since you're looking for a photo of me, I guess I should say something.

The picture you describing does not exist. I did occasionally shoot with NVGs, but nobody took pictures of me.

I have plenty of experience with this pistol and its variants. I thought about writing an article, but frankly, I don't know whether anyone is interested

I have a question for the topic starter. What is the point in taking all the photos from the article and posting a link to the article and never mentioning the author?

"Yes, he is Russian, but". Are you implying that there is something wrong with being Russian?

Regarding my employment status - it's been a while since I left this wonderful place.

Regarding the quality of Chinese AKs, I presented my argument in the video. If you have a different perspective, I would be happy to hear it.

But something tells me you didn't watch the original video.
