HALO on an AK-74...what kind of mount? Any issues?

Post by Wakko »

I'd like to put my new HALO on my AK-74 Bulgarian with 16" barrel. Any issues there? If not, what do I use for a mount?

I believe the HALO is designed to work with MilSpec A2 flash hiders. Now how to mount an A2 on a AK74? THat I am sorry I can't help you with. Sounds to me like it would either be a custom A2 or a thread adapter, call TROS and see if he has anythign in stock for that purpose!

And make sure the bore is concentric to the threads!!!!

Got the Vltor mount and it mounts up easily enough, though I haven't fired the rifle suppressed yet. DEFINITELY very front heavy with the can hanging off the end, but it looks good regardless.
