First Mag Review - Is This The Best Draco AK Pistol?
About this video
Colion discusses his experience modifying a Micro Draco AK pistol after initially disliking the platform’s shootability and practicality. He explains the specific upgrades he made through Meridian Defense—including adding an SB Tactical brace, SLR handguard and muzzle brake, Delta Point Pro optic, and custom cerakote finish—to transform what he describes as a charming but problematic gun into what he considers a practical and attractive truck or backpack gun. Colion demonstrates the modified pistol’s performance and handling characteristics at various ranges.
Key takeaways
- Colion argues that adding a brace, quality handguard, effective muzzle brake, and red dot optic can significantly improve the shootability and practicality of an AK pistol platform
- According to Colion, the SLR muzzle brake reduces concussive blast compared to typical brakes on short-barreled AK pistols, directing gases forward rather than to the sides
- Colion notes that even with upgrades, the Micro Draco platform is best suited for close-range work, as he found accuracy becomes challenging beyond 130-140 yards with the short barrel and pistol configuration
