Arcturus AT-AK04 Carbine – Modern AK Replica with Exceptional Precision

The Arcturus AT-AK04 carbine is a magnificent addition to the AK family, combining a modern look with precise performance. This replica has been crafted with high accuracy and care, paying attention to every detail.

Design and Construction: The AK04 carbine features a lower receiver connected to a lightweight RIS/M-LOK handguard, offering extensive options for accessory mounting. This model is equipped with an M4-type adjustable stock, providing customizable comfort. Most of the external elements, just like the original, are made of metal. Notably, the receiver, receiver cover, safety selector, and trigger guard along with the magazine latch have been cold-pressed from steel sheet, mirroring the original. Following the original design, the entire front and rear bases, such as the muzzle brake and bolt carrier, are also made of metal. The sling plate, along with the counter nuts located on the buffer tube, is also metal. All these metal elements have been industrially protected against corrosion.

Gearbox and Internal Components: The gearbox and its internal components are another advantage of this replica. It features a quick spring change system, and both the spring guide and piston head are equipped with bearings. The polymer piston has steel teeth that work seamlessly with high-quality gears. The gears are mounted on slide bearings to handle the highest loads. Only the motor rack is mounted on ball bearings to ensure it spins freely at high speeds. Inside, you'll find an electric "Micro Switch" trigger connected to low-resistance wiring, preparing the replica for use with Li-Po batteries. The use of an electric trigger eliminates issues like burnt contacts and improves trigger response. The gearbox is finished with a Teflon-sealed nozzle. Teflon provides durability and, most importantly, boasts excellent sliding properties—no lubrication required. It works with a metal hop-up chamber which houses a hardened 6.01mm precision steel barrel. The gearbox is also equipped with a spring tension release lever located next to the trigger. After using the replica, you can release the spring. The spring-loaded lever will push the anti-reversal latch to release spring tension, helping to keep the gearbox in top shape over time.
