Soviet Arms Stizon Build: AK-V Helical Magazine Setup
Palmetto State Armory highlights a custom build featuring the Soviet Arms Stizon, a helical magazine adapter designed to increase capacity and expand customization options for the platform.
What Is the Soviet Arms Stizon?
The Stizon is a helical magazine adapter developed in partnership with Stuff and Things Inc. for the PSA AK-V platform.
Key Highlights:
- Uses a 55-round helical magazine
- Mounts directly to the front of the handguard
- Loads similarly to a standard magazine
- Designed to add capacity and a unique configuration to AK-V builds
Build Configuration Overview
This Stizon setup focuses on a clean, functional build with modern accessories.
Optic
- Holosun SCRS red dot
- Mounted in a lower-third configuration
- Available in solar and multi-reticle options
Handguard Options
- The Stizon is available with two configurations:
- Traditional handguard (used in this build)
- Midwest Industries handguard for additional accessories like lights and lasers
Suppressor Setup
- Dead Air Wolfman 9mm suppressor
- Mounted via 1/2x28 threads
- Configurable in long or short configuration
This suppressor pairs well with the AK-V platform and complements the Stizon build.
Why the Stizon Stands Out
- Increased capacity with a 55-round helical system
- Unique mounting system integrated into the handguard
- Flexible build options for both minimalist and fully accessorized setups
- Compatibility with common AK-V upgrades and accessories
Final Thoughts
The Soviet Arms Stizon offers a different approach to AK-V customization, combining high capacity with modular setup options. Whether running a streamlined build or a fully equipped configuration, it provides a unique addition to the AK-V platform.
