I watched a few video reviews, including some in Russian language. Takeaways are:
- very reliable, no malfunctions incl. when left overnight at -27 C and then shot 5 rds rapid fire
- 2-3 MOA accuracy
- POA shifts 2-3 inches after reassembly if optics is used due to removable barrel
- okay-ish 4-5 lbs trigger pull
- proprietary 5-rd mags
So, this thread confirms that POI shifts after reassembly and barrel nut gets loose during shooting.. and they also discuss using cans with it. Damn, Russia has better gun laws than Canada, what a shame.
I think POI will not shift if iron sights are used, but shotgun style removable barrel is definitely not good for shooting tight groups. Probably, Akdas 223 has the same issues, as it is the same design style.

I skimmed through that discussion mentioned above and I would say that some users are disappointed and other are skeptical. Consider also it's a hunters crowd, very minimal amount of rounds through rife.

Geologists working in remote Russian locations HAVE to carry a gun, by law.

I remember an article in Nat Geo from the 70's, a Japanese fellow wanted to go solo to the North Pole and take a Handgun with him for protection, the Govt of Turd 1 wouldn't let him, he ended up taking a 303 and killing a Polar Bear with it.

Isn't as much a question of trust... Than a question of not poking a bear that is ok to use violence when necessary... Kind of like why most gun laws don't seem to apply to native.

Just some random thoughts
- Registering their firearms... nah, don't need that
- Safe storage rules... nah, don't need that
- Show up at a protest with AK's and 50BMG... Should the horse people get involved? Nah, don't need that

More like Turkish BAR.
Combination of both, detachable drop box mag is a different feeding system vs the BAR.

There is a BAR MK3 that uses a detachable magazine.
Looks more of a BAR than a M1A/M305.
The orginal BAR used a box mag too..
Pretty close to Benelli R1 actually, very similar bolt and gas system.
Makes sense, they cloned Beretta 92F and Benelli M2/M4 in Turkey previously.
The 223 unit is basically the cheap shotgun gas system design, kind of ####ty IMHO.
