“The AK Masters was a straightforward, run-and-gun style competition using both steel and paper targets at a variety of distances”, said Hicks. “It was a two-day match, ten stages in total with five stages on each day. The heat and humidity on Day Two made it particularly challenging but that didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of the shooters.
“Everyone, including the range staff, had a great attitude and the Clinton House Plantation was a spectacular setting. I shot KUSA’s KR-103 7.62x39mm rifle with a Holosun 503G red dot optic (with the ACSS BDC reticle) and used KUSA’s new polymer magazines. The whole setup performed flawlessly, and the Wolf ammo did its part too. I’m also truly grateful to Kalashnikov-USA for their continued support.”
