Is this AK-12?

Coming on the heels of (and surely related to) news that Kalashnikov Concern has decided to launch the AK-12 on the open market, the Russian Army has announced today that both the AK-12 and the A545 (improved AEK-971 variant) have passed state trials and will be accepted into service with operational units for evaluation.

nah, im just referencing cs go, pp-19 does that aforementioned pattern and vityaz is upgrade of it.flamming_python wrote:
Unlike the AK rifle it doesn't have a muzzle-break compensator, or at least not much of one; so I assume it will just go up with a slight right - what makes you think it will still start stabilizing after that?
