I got a ciener 22Ak kit, its awesome. I'm going to be putting mine up for sale though soon, needs a new firing pin($10) from ciener though. Look in AK EE, its up for sale.

If you end up paying this for mags "Spare 10 round Magazine - $35.00
Spare 30 round Magazine - $59.00",  I'd rather act like I only have one mag and reload slowly without the conversion.

Could this be modified to work in a Krink (M92, 7.62)?

I wonder if they work as reliably as the AR model? For those of you complaining about the 30 rd mag price, just be happy you can get them. Think about how annoy it is to not even be allowed to own 30 rd .22 mags

This is something that I would also be interested in.


Any reviews?

Does the kit replace the barrel? how does that work.

There is a liner that goes in the barrel.

Check out the site listed above for more info.

there are some preban ciener mags around. over $150 tho

fortunately for the AR15 ciener guys there is a new guy making 30rd mags for half the price (black dog machine). The only reason ciener has been able to charge $60 ea is he is (was) the only game in town for 22lr AR15.M16 conversions w/ mags over 10rds

Ask TacticalOpsAR how he liks his AK kit in a few weeks For the guys asking questions about the kit, BASICALLY all you do is field strip the rifle, install the ciener barrel tube(it just slides into place, locks in using a screw), install the ciener bolt/carrier, and install the ciener Spring. Boom its done. Mine shot like a champ, but it did take a few thousand rounds through it before it was 100%. Its a good little kit, but like TacticalOpsAR said, ciener is the only guy in town making the kits(well at least AK wise), so he charges pretty high prices. But I can say I was satisfied with mine, and the 30rd mags are a blast to shoot. Hope that helps. Kit installs in about 1-2 minutes.

So how accurate is that thing?

Its a plinker setup. I hit tincans with it all the time when I used it. Its just for fun/show, mine was accurate, but if I was really wanting a 22lr gun I'd get a 10/22 and scope it. its as accurate as an AK can be...if you want precision, get a bolt 22lr.

That doesn't sound bad. I just wondered about the barrel-inside-a-barrel thing, if you could hit anything at all with it.
