Just curious if anyone else has an opinion on the feasibility of an AK chambered in 6 ARC.
You mean, to produce a mini-sniper rifle that's smaller and lighter than the SVD, for use by Spetsnaz or other Russian special forces, like was done with the Barrett 6mm REC7 rifle?
It seems to me like that should be technically feasible, although I very much doubt that the Russians would want to use 6 ARC, due to its 30-degree shoulder and minimal case taper.
