Customer Reviews for M&M Buds Exclusive M10 with Phoenix Collapsible Stock

Very Nice Quality Item Well Made and Accurate.

Well, what can say??!! Oh yeah....AWSOME!!!! This rifle is sooooooo much fun to shoot!!! Eats up whatever ammo you feed it!! Oh yeah I'm an AR guy. This my first AK. I have to say I should've bought 1 long time ago!! I can't wait to get another 1. The trigger on this rifle is pretty bad ass!!

All looked well at ffL got rifle back home, let me add this is my first AK type weapon loaded forst Mag 30 rounds FTF from jump, avtion would feed with 5 round no more . Colorado gun sales people who convert these things are really Cool, they offered to repair or replace if needed. Got it back about a week later with work sheet that said they ground down bolt because head space was to tight and that they test fired and cleaned. Yes rifle does work but barrel was filthy upon return no biggie, but the whole thing feel kinda Loosey Goosey

Was looking for my first AK and found out about this one at a local shop. Looked it up and liked the reviews that were on it (youtube, buds, etc., etc.,) So was gonna go for it during cyber week and still held out and eventually price dropped to $599 for buds Christmas specials. Jumped all over it at that price!!! Received my rifle the day after Christmas (FFL closed the 24th and 25th) and was super excited! Took her home and knew to expect the grease and gunk all over it so took a good cleaning session to get her just right and tight! Went out two days later to test it out. First two rounds good! The third round FTF'd! HUH?!?! Thought nothing of it. Got it unjammed and wahlah!! 250 rounds down range and not a one issue since! This thing is awesome!! Now, the only real pain in the behind has been finding a dang extra mag for it!! This thing is picky when it comes to magazines! My dealer had another M10 in stock so we tried polys and steels and the polys were too wide while the steels would get stuck and have a really, REALLY hard time getting loose! I'm sure I'll find another mag just need to shop around a bit more. Kinda a pain though so I am making sure to leave this info in my review!! Oh, and yes I did try another pro-mag with the same results! Kinda weird, so make sure you check it with the gun or make sure your mag retailer has a return policy! So, all in all I will say that I am having a blast with this thing! I already purchased the UTG side mount for a red dot or reticule scope cause the rails that this one comes with are really too far forward for any type of mounting like that! If I find anything else to notate I will bring up here to let everyone know prior to purchasing this firearm! If you are on the fence about this rifle you should really just go for it! It is a decent price for this day and age and it is actually fairly inexpensive to shoot as well! I am very pleased with my purchase so far!! Hope this review helps!!!

This was my first AK47 type rifle. Rifle arrived in good condition. It was greased up pretty good so I used the boiling water method to clean up the parts. Lubed, assembled, and went outside to shoot (I live in the country). First few shots went fine until I tried to rapid fire, rifle jammed. Inspection showed the round didn't "pop" up fast enough....not the rifles fault, clearly a magazine issue. Switched to US Palm magazines and blasted away without any further problems. Rifle worked flawlessly and is really fun to shoot! I was amazed how little recoil there was to this rifle. Now the bad.....I am going to spend a fortune on ammo! Good service from Buds.

***LIMITED REVIEW*** Just received this rifle a few hours ago and considering the below zero wind chill the range portion will come later. Here are some brief bullet points: - Bud's service and shipping were very reasonable. I normally deal with the Police Supply guys so I am spoiled. - Packaging was surprisingly great since I'd read other reviews of crushed boxes etc. Mine arrived looking like it was just pulled off the shelf. - Included rail covers are nice. - IGNORE the Tapco "waffle mag" information on the site. Mine had, you guessed it, a Tapco "waffle mag" in the box. - LGS had a couple of loose mags for sale. One polymer (Bulgarian) smooth side mag and one 40 round ATI steel mag. Both snapped right into the mag well with no unusual wobble. We'll see how they shoot when the weather clears. Considering the extras that come on this rifle I have absolutely nothing negative to report prior to shooting it. There are numerous online reviews if you search the M10 AK. You'll have to determine which reviews are valid or just the regular self-proclaimed experts wasting your time. If this thing shoots as good as everything else appears I'll be back to give it a "5" star rating.

Excellent rifle! 90 rounds fired and only one malfunction on the 3rd round which was due to my lack of cleaning the factory cosmoline off of the piston. Sights were dead on at 25 and 50 yards. If you're on the fence just buy the rifle...you won't regret it. As for Buds excellent service and fast shipment!

First purchase with Bud's. It was flawless. The gun is a great AK platform gun, I like all the extra stuff that is already on the gun. The gun came with a smooth Tapco mag that appears to have one of the corners shaved ever so slightly, to make it fit. There is no mag wobble with the magazine that came with the gun. I have yet to try any other magazines. Overall, the gun appears to great. The only negative I noticed is the black finish has some nicks in it and there is a scratch on the receiver from the safety lever. However, that is not unusual for these types of guns. Would certainly buy this gun again.

My first purchase from buds excellent service received it in 3 days. Gun quality was excellent i would recommend the m&m m10 great gun shoots very well. Thanks buds ill be making future purchases from you.

If M&M had taken the time to give this AK a decent finish it would be perfect. But the finish on this AK is really bad. It's splotchy and not at all uniform. Very thin to none in some places. But the rifle is a thing of beauty when it comes to shooting it. I put 90 Rounds through it and it performed flawlessly. And it's extremely accurate . Didn't even have to zero it in. At 25 yards I shot the bullseye out of the target. At 50 yards, 10 rounds in a two inch group. This AK would be a 5 if not for the finish. Almost gave it a 3 because of it, but everything else is just to good.

this was my first ak and my first purchase from buds. the rifle is a love/hate relationship. i had heard that people were receiving their rifles in damaged boxes and i was hoping i wouldn't be one of those people but when i went to go pick up the rifle at buds local shop the box looked like it had been thrown and kicked up and down the street. there was some minor cosmetic damage to the rifle (deep scratches and chunks of metal missing from the quad rail were it looks like a metal object punctured the box) but mechanically the rifle is solid. i wish the finish on the received and other area was a little better but i do understand this rifle is made in Romania, imported by Colorado gun sales, refitted and made to accept double stack mags and all the goodies us Americans love on our rifles, and then shipped across the nation. i know you take this chance when buying online and if buds received it like that then there isnt much you can do. i do love the rifle though and the cosmetic damage does, in a way, make it look like a true ak. i just wish i would be the one putting the wear and tear on the rifle rather than me receiving it like that all in all i love the rifle and i wouldn't trade it for anything. if and when they come back in stock i might even buy another one. the trigger is amazing, collapsible stock is nice, grip is awesome, and the quad rail with the flash hider really sets this rifle apart.

Ok my first AK First off I like the trigger better than my Bushmaster Patrolman As the last post said a 7 inch group at 100 yards is easy 6 shots 3 will hit a 2 inch group on open sights. With bad eyes – Am 6-1 and the extended stock is 5+ inches longer than a Bushmaster trigger to butt. I will stop here but I am loving me some AK M&M :-)

Just received mine and back from the range.Outstanding rifle.I was a little scepticale about ooline purchase.Bud's was quick to ship, and no problems with rifle,sights were straight,tapco mag fit well and tight no wobble.rifle was a little crudddy inside but everything cleaned up.100 yard shots at a 6x6 plate surprized me on accuracy.I am very pleased with purchase.Picked up 1000 rounds at lucky gunner for $440.00 and no jams,misfeeds worked perfectly.Bud's are good people in my opinion.

My first experience with Buds and it was excellent. Timely shipping, excellent communication, the whole process was a breeze. Now, about the rifle - I am so glad I got this version with Phoenix stock. AK makes their rifles with fixed stock with "one size fits all" approach, well guess what, it doesn't. Phoenix stock by itself if a $65 upgrade and in this combination it was only a $20 upgrade - already installed. I’ve read a lot of reviews about the sister product m10-762 (also available at Buds) and opted for this model just because of the stock. In those reviews, ive noticed a pattern where folks were complaining about canted sights – not an issue with my rifle. Took it out shooting and was hitting 1-2 inch groupings at 50 yards no problem whatsoever. Keep in mind; I have very limited AK experience, so it’s pretty darn good in my books. Recoil was nominal, perhaps due to the upgraded stock, but also may be due to the fact that I had open mind approaching this rifle. I am pleased with quality, but only time will tell for sure. The paint does scratch easy, but it’s not a Ferrari, so I am not worried about it. Was surprised to learn that receiver does not stay open and you can’t make it stay open. Tapco mag that came with the rifle fitted in no problem. Purchased 2 additional metal mags and they wouldn’t latch at first, but after a few attempts they bended into place and now work with no problems. Absolutely NO wobble, which was also a common theme with the sister rifle; in fact mags fit snug with a noticeable click. Rails up front did heat up after 200 rounds of rapid fire at which point I switched to the tactical handle. And here is the kicker – went to the gun show and saw a similar rifle up for sale and it was priced at $790… so much for a good pricing at a gun show. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and highly recommend this rifle. The build is complete opposite of your typical soviet AK stereotype. Awesome rifle!
