I thought the same thing. But clearly we're both wrong, because all guns based off a 70 year old design are stuck with this feature, despite the fact this was supposed to be the "new and improved" AK or whatever. Remember, militaries use it, so it must be good. They don't buy stuff based on price or anything.

They made them like that CUZ it's easier to find any AK mag as opposed to finding Croat mags (which are way more harder to find, despite IRG getting a handful in) that would actually engage the BHO or instead of using proprietary mags.
That's why they did what they did and I'm sure the majority of US owners have NON BHO AK mags in their safes then Croat ones

If I was designing it, I would have tried to make something that works with AK mags, but also had a BHO that worked with a propriety modified AK mag. That way, the people who have boxes of AK mags can still use them, people who want a rifle with BHO could buy more mags from me, and now I'm selling magazines in addition to rifles. A win for everyone.
If this gun was cheaper, I wouldn't care. Its the combo of high price AND lack of BHO that irks me.

You are right. You would have undoubtedly designed and manufactured a superior firearm. This one is clearly not worthy of your ownership, so Just move on - it's not even worth discussing!
PS. All of this back and forth about BHOs has already occurred in the "Unboxing" thread: https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/foru...1#post14992715

Somebody had time to do a video and post it on youtube.... shooting a group or three would not have been that difficult...... heck even a general comment about how the gun shot would have been informative. To be fair it was more of a #### shoot then a documentary.
Week 2, looking forward to some more range reports......
