CA Compliance:
California compliance
- Status: Legal to own in California.
- Configuration: Featureless, built by WBT: grip fin in place of the pistol grip, stock pinned in a fixed position, flash hider removed and replaced with a thread protector (a muzzle brake is an optional upgrade). The magazine release works normally, so reloads are the same as anywhere else.
- Magazine: Standard detachable, 10-round.
- Your options: If this page shows a compliance selector, choose the build you prefer and we configure it that way. If not, this is the configuration we offer by default; on AR-pattern rifles and some AKs a different build is often possible, so ask us before you order.
- Upgrades: AK-pattern rifles take AK-specific parts only; AR-style grips do not fit, and the MagLock is not an option because an AK receiver does not open to swap the magazine. Rifles that use a standard AK-47 magazine can usually be built with a CompMag instead. The AK options we offer are in California Compliance Upgrades.

About this rifle
Palmetto State Armory AK-47 GF5 (Saber Plan B Muzzle) is an AK-pattern rifle chambered in 7.62x39 with a 16" barrel and a 10-round capacity. Finish: FDE. An AK has a one-piece receiver that does not open like an AR, so the MagLock approach is not available; AKs are built featureless or with a CompMag, as described above.
Manufacturer details
The Sabre AK-47 GF5 features an FN cold hammer forged 16" barrel with a proprietary blend of hammer-forged chrome-moly vanadium that is referred to as "Machine Gun Steel" by virtue of its use in FN's M249 and M240 weapons. The hammer forging process work hardens the steel, making it more durable. This barrel is magnetic particle inspected, to ensure quality and dependability.
The rifle also features a stamped steel dimpled receiver with a forged Romanian front trunnion, swell neck rivets and a side scope mount. The Sabre AK includes a Plan B suppressor mount flash hider, as well as an ALG AKT Enhanced Trigger with Lightning Bow and Hammer Forged Carrier both with a DLC finish. The rifle is finished off with a Burnt Bronze Soviet Arms 11.5" handguard and railed gas tube, RAL8000 B5 folding stock and P-Grip. Includes (1) Burnt Bronze metal magazine.
The Sabre GF5 AK contains the following Romanian parts from a vintage 1960's or 1970's parts kit:
• Bolt
• Carrier
• Front Trunnion
• Rear Sight Base
• Rear Sight Leaf
• Dust Cover
• Recoil Spring
The Bolt, Carrier and Trunnion will have matching numbers.
