plain cooler than the typical AK47 made in
the US.

Bolt Hold Open Safety Mod
One of the things about using an AK47 at a public
shooting range is it's lack of a bolt hold open. Most
ranges require all rifles to be opened and unloaded
during a cease fire, and typically the only option
for an AK47 shooter is to hold the bolt back with
a spent round or plastic chamber block. Chris devised
a simple modification to the AK47 safety lever that
will allow the bolt to safely stay back with the chamber
open and visible.
This means you can step away from your
rifle on a range and the line safety guys can see
that your AK47 is unloaded easily.

Another feature of the modified AK47 safety lever
is the 'quick release' found in other rifles that
have a bolt hold open feature. You can load a full
magazine, and simply drop the safety then you are
ready to shoot in almost no time
