Fun to shoot, no FTE/FTF no jams. Shot hundreds of rounds. Very pleased.

I loved this gun, but I wanted a "real AK" so I sold it to a buddy and bought an NPAP. I regret doing that every day. Don't get me wrong, I love my NPAP but I should have kept the AMD and bought an NPAP too. If these ever come back into stock, I will buy again in a heartbeat.

I've had this loud monster for a few years now and do I freaking love it!! I've had to have put at least 5,000 rounds of dirty Russian milsurp ammo through this thing and I haven't had a single hiccup!! As always, Bud's rules!!

Owned several AKs. But the AMD-65 to me is the best. Simply because of the Muzzle brake is really bad looking to go along with the balls of fire(only when using Tula ammo). I did upgrade with a cheek riser on wire stock which made it more accurate; also put a quad rail on it, Scorpion pistol grip,5 position fore grip, and put some OD Green paracord design through the stock. Read other reviews about the peeling paint but mine is in great shape and shoots well with no issues. Would recommend

Outstanding quality and price! Very pleased with the rifle!

One thing I loved about the gun is how durable it has been. With it being an AK I was also able to easily customize it. I have shot prob about 2,000 rounds through it and have had about 4-5 hickups and virtually all the ammo has been cheap hallow-point. Overall I love the gun, and it has treated me well. The only problem is that I have had issues with some mags needing extra attention to get fed properly.

Shoots straight and goes bang every time right out of the box. Nice fireball out the muzzle too! Good folding compact riffle

Great product, had problem with the trigger--minor issue easily resolved--- shoots great.

Awesome weapon, built like a tank. No failures at all when firing. Changed handles for a hogue grip and Midwest industries rail, thing looks awesome now. Also put on the metal cheek riser on the wire stock.

Gun worked perfectly right out of the box. But just like everyone else weld broke on muzzle break. The problem is that when putting the muzzle break on and welding it that it is lined up at the 12 o'clock position, which in itself is correct. . But the muzzle break is not bottomed out and torqued down before welding. It needs to be machined down to fit properly before being welded. Simply a extra step not taken by the manufacture. I shaved a few hundredths of a inch off the base of the muzzle break and then torqued a 1/8th turn, welded it and have shot over a thousand rounds with not a problem. Glad I bought it when I did. Can't complain I would say a bargain. thanks Bud

Bought mine before the hysteria for $489.00 I believe back in October. Just got to shoot it today, and have some issues. Had the gunsmith who I had it shipped to inspect it and he said all was great. But...had three different people shoot it yesterday and the rifle is at least 3 feet off. Yes, 3 FEET off. After researching AK sight tools, I guess this is not uncommon with AK type rifles. Second issue is magazine wobble. Bought four aftermarket magazines and tried three of them yesterday, only one would reliably feed (the stock MecGar one fed reliably). So word of advice if you purchase this rifle, buy the sight tool and metal magazines. Still love the gun for the price. I also thought shooting with that stock would be uncomfortable and painful, not so. Also be aware it will cost you big $$$ to convert to another type of folding stock. And even if you wanted to, the few people that make them are at least 6 months behind. To convert it to a better folding stock it will run you another couple of hundred dollars, including the stock. I believe Krebs and Stormwerkz are the only people offering the parts necessary to convert the stock.The stock grips are horrendous and flat out fugly, so I replace the rear one first and bought a new fore end with picatinny rail system. Much better. Last but not least, bought an inexpensive holographic type scope for it....don't bother. This rifle kicks to much for it to keep center. So in closing, I am not trying to discourage anyone from buying this rifle. It's great for the money, and plain wicked looking with the new fore end I put on it. I just wanted people to be aware of what they were getting in to. New grips, AK sight tool, metal magazines, and different fore end are costs you may want to include when you price one. The rifle was worth the money I paid for it, but definitely not worth the ridiculous prices people are trying to get for them on some forums.

I bought this rifle about a year ago when it was cheaper. The rifle has been a lot of fun. The only problem was that the muzzle break almost came off. I called and emailed TGI for three weeks before I got authroization to return the gun for repairs. Apparently, the material used for the weld was brittle. TGI repaired the rifle and got t back to me. I am glad to have it back fixed because my friends and I have had fun with it. Stock up on 20 round mags for this rifle. It gets three stars due to the muzzle break almost flinging off down the range.

Great little AK variant, fits just about every mag I shove into it and cycles just fine. My only complaint is not having any cheek weld which is easily fixed with a cheek riser. The finish was excellent on my particular rifle, honestly better than the M10 I picked up when I bought it. Buds was top notch as usual 5 stars all the way around.

What a great AK47! This is the sleeper of all time! I just got my FEG that I layed away before the gun hysteria started. It is absolutely perfect! The paint is great with no flaws that I see. The folding stock works great and is much more comfortable then I expected. If you get the chance and these come back in stock then buy at least 1 of them as fast as you can!! I got lucky and picked up 2 Korean 30 round medal mags and they fit tight with no wiggles. My FEG will be in my collection forever. So u will have to buy yours from Buds like I did. Buds gets a 10 for there outstanding customer service and there quality guns at great prices!! FEG gets 5 stars!!

This little baby is....well a BABY! I love this SBR. I have run a number of rounds through this and it shoots great!

I love this rifle...wish I had grabbed 2 when they were available. The finish is mediocre but acceptable. If this was a safe queen I'd get it refinished, but it's not so it stays as is. The fit is very good; all parts work without error and there are no sloppy fittings to be found. I've encountered no malfunctions with this rifle. The folding stock really makes this thing portable, it's easy to carry in a bag or in the hand. Echo 93 makes a single point sling attachment for this rifle that works great...makes for easy carry. I have a few AK's, and this was the least expensive, but is still my favorite. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this one again.

Just picked up my AMD-65 at my FFL on Wednesday. I made my final layaway payment the week before and Buds got the job done and mailed it to me right away. Regarding the AMD, it looks vicious. This is a weapon ready to do battle. The paint job is lacking as everyone else has stated, but you can always change this. Wire buttstock has zero wobble. Locks in and out perfectly. There is nothing fancy with this rifle. I would describe it as primitive. But when it hits the fan, you better believe it will work. I picked up two extra tapco 30 round plastic mags and there is a bit of a learning curve in getting them in the locked position snugly. At my FFL, the all metal 30 rounder went in smoothly. It's just the plastic mags and not the AMD, but since getting the rifle and having a few days to play with it, I am getting better at locking the plastic mags in smoothly in the first 1-2 tries. This gun is now out of stock at buds and the prices everywhere else are through the roof. I paid $449.00 at Buds. If you can get your hands on one of these at a reasonable price, please do so, if you can find one. I now have a high powered rifle that will work every time to protect myself, my family and the innocent. I plan to modify this rifle a bit, but other than that, if I don't get the chance to do so, I'm just as content with it, as it's not a beauty contest out there. Thanks Buds!!

Rifle goes boom, when I pull the trigger and no miss feeds. The finish is chipping, so plan on having it refinished. For the price I would definitely buy again and as always BUDS is hard to beat.

Now i know this is a half and half mil surp gun BUT i counted 15 scratches, a small dent in the reciever, the grip looks like a dog chewed on them, EXTREMELY dirty gun (looks like never been cleaned), the paint is HORRIBLE. Its a good thing I am replacing the grips, getting a quad rail, new sights, and dura coating it (knowing this going in).

This is the finest AK-47 for the money, no frills, not decked out with flashlights, laser, or silly optics. Extremely reliable, handsome gun, no canted sights here. This is a weapon for battle not a range queen.

Bought the TGI FEG AMD-65 7.62x39 Ak Variant from buds for $449, received it at my FFL about a week after final layaway payment cleared. Finally got a chance to shoot it today; WOW. What a great gun. It operates like a dream! The trigger is amazing. The included 20-round magazine fits great and functions without issue. It's not a super clean finish -- the paint is cheap and the grips are ugly -- but as far as functionality goes, this thing rocks. It's VERY loud and the muzzle flash is enormous... I was surprised at the relatively light recoil -- It doesn't kick nearly as hard as a 12-gauge or 30-06. It definitely packs a punch - it's a great mix of power and accuracy. I'm no expert shooter or anything but this gun consistently hit relatively small targets at 100 yards. The iron sights are ok, nothing special. I am quite pleased with this gun, I really don't have any complaints for about $450 this is an awesome gun. Accurate enough, powerful enough, well built and reliable. My first purchase with buds, so far I'm a satisfied customer. I've got a Ruger 10-22 on the way, can't wait!
