Elysium AK-47 FINISHED WITH VIDEO

[buffalowinter]

Work has begun on the Elysium AK-47 as used by Matt Damon. Parts are arriving and I am beginning fabrication after a successful proof of concept for the digital round counter.

What I'm building.

Successful proof of concept for the digital round counter. A lot of fabrication before I decide on a final design, especially the placement of the counter. Possible placement on the side of the receiver or mounted on a 45 degree offset picatinny rail adapter.

Digital counter done, waiting on donor AK.

At first glance, that round counter triggered my MILES Gear PTSD. I hope DOGE gets their hands on that system and shit cans it.

As always, cool project.

Digital round counter, function test. It did miss counting one or two rounds, but that's what you get for $10.99 Could have made it smaller to make it practical, but this fits in better with the "Elysium" aesthetic.


Fabricated an enhanced charging handle for the counter.

Pretty much finished. Digital counter and Laser installed. Some Russian decals to add. Going to fit a PKM box magazine to it.

Where's the cup holder?

No need, I'm building a canteen into the stock like this Colt.

And maybe a coffee grinder.
