Faxon ARAK-21

Will the 7.62x39 upper work on a ks-47 lower

Faxon make this with mlok slots to make it lighter

I wonder how this would scale up to magnum length. Magnum length AR needs more competition so prices drop to ~$2000. I'd like to see a platform that will do 300WM/338LM/300Norma.

I wish they'd come out with 5.45x39 for these

Its really not a big deal to use the cpd mags. I have some and they work excellent. They’re a little pricey but the cheap x39 ammo makes up for it

Cmmg 7.62X39 AR/AK takes the AK mags

Please do a meltdown video!!!!!!

Does it work with an echo trigger or binary trigger, though?

Arak 21 melt down????

Should do a meltdown with the ARAK.. Just saying

Looking for a my first rifle and I can't decide between ar or ak looking at the arak now, looks great leaning towards the arak but still don't know

I have that one but be honest I like my palmetto state KS-47 it’s the best ar/47 ever built for the 7.62x39 and takes ak mags and only 699

What's that sound right before he shoots? U can hear it when he firsts starts shooting, Especially slowly.

Get you a hype man like Chad

PSA: I was an ARAK owner ten years. I had both the 5.56 and the 300bo. This is a fun rifle to shoot and an amazing work of engineering. I'm really proud of the work that Faxon has done. The two things I can say about the ARAK is it is built like a howitzer, build like an M1 Garrand. You can literally drive over this rifle with a tank and it will keep shooting. The second thing is the Faxon barrels are absolutely beautiful 1 MOA even after several thousand rounds. HOWEVER, I grew out of the ARAK. The first thing that became tiring is that with a full mag and a 2-7x37 Nikon scope the rifle was over ten pounds. I grew tired of the long hot overland hunting days with the heavy rig. You can dress down the rifle by removing the rails and running a micro red dot, but it's still DAMN heavy at the end of the day, I'm 6.1 and a lifetime overland hunter. Also, the rifle gets DAMN hot. Shoot one mag and it's WARM. Shoot three mags and you will want a glove. Shoot five or six mags on a hot sunny day an the rifle will overcome even the glove. I am not exaggerating. This rifle gets massively hot during high rate of fire. Be warned. The ARAK is optimal in the 300bo configuration. I had many failures running the 5.56 even after the dual ejector bolt swap provided by Faxon. The rifle had a hard time running hot ammo including Magtech and American Eagle. And it wasn't a tuning problem because I used the smallest gas setting and still got massive tearup on my brass from both ejector and extractor, and double feeds due to fast cycling. It was frustrating to say the least. I'd get jams about once per magazine on any type of magazine. The arak will run 5.56 perfectly with certain types of ammo but it is picky, which I find a problem should ammo types become limited. FINALLY! Sadly the resale value on the rifle was horrible. I spent over $2500 on the complete rifle with two barrels including a high quality billet Seekins lower with performance trigger, the rifle sold for $800 after 4 months of advertising. You can run a performance AR-10 in 308 with a .5 MOA barrel with a LIGHTER weight and better heating characteristics for the price of what I put into the ARAK. I was in love with the ARAK, but when the honeymoon was over, it was waaaaay over. I will probably not buy again unless I just want a cool rifle to show off at the range. But props to Faxon for making a very cool range rifle. Props to Faxon on their FX5500 ultralight AR at 4.95lbs. God bless the Faxon family.

If the mag well was changeable between AR and AK mags it would be very impressive.

I want a big one that's an AR-10 and an SVD.

Meltdown test the ARAK please?

Unimag

PWS Long stroke piston vs Faxon?
You need to have a head to head comparison.

How does this compare to galil ace?

The Arak is really well engineered got a lot of nice features

That thing is awsome.

Non free-floating barrel...

I one of these is a 7.62 soooo damn bad

Did anybody realize how fast that bolt was reciprocating?

Those empties are coming out of there fast

If there one that used ak mags to you would just have basically an ak with a lil different design an name there's quite a few out there already maybe use the palmetto ks47 lower somehow with this upper si it kinda be both still ar components with ak mags an piston type assembly upper maybe someone could Frankenstein this together that can machine who knows idk how they function just throwing it out there

They need a 6.8 spc barrel

would a lower like PSA's lower (and other manufacturers) that uses AK mags work with the ARAK-21 in 7.62x39 upper?

Are those mlock mounts? They look a bit thick.

Make a FA video of it at close range suppressed.

Pretty impressive that a company like Faxon designed this. I don’t think I’d personally purchase one but I’d love to shoot one to see handle and feel what they are like with the different barrels and calibers.

Dream gun

did faxon discontinue the arak rifle & uppers? i havent seen them in stock on their website or anywhere else in a long time.

Dance Goffer.....Dance!!!

Man I've never seen or heard of this firearm or the company, but the way that thing ejects shell casings... Lol that alone is like a secondary firing system 😂 talk about collateral damage haha

Is that click the trigger reset? I can tell the gong, gunshot..

Yup a good farm gun...🙃

7.62 was very impressive.

Does anyone know if the CMMG Mutant 7.62x39 lower will fit the ARAK 7.62x39 upper?

You never covered the accuracy

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 KJV, Jesus Christ is the only way.......

Shes a beauty that must be shooted with 7,62

Would you choose those platform as your Preffered 7.62x39, ar upper?

So could you put the upper on a JAKL lower?

❤

It almost looks like the galil iwi but instead of it looking like an upgraded Ak with ar look it’s more AR.
