yea I got to hold and fingerfuck an Austeyr once it felt great

no shade to the norinco but it does look ilke I'd cut myself on the stamped metal and more importantly it looks unsettlingly AK-like, but wrong, so its a wrong AK next to your face. Or something I dunno this is amygdala shit.

Is that pic with the guy holding the one with the drum from a video? (and if so may I see it?)

It is literally just an AK, actually

Is that pic with the guy holding the one with the drum from a video

Unfortunately, no, I think I got it off some article

but I do have this one from a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7BTh1p--8w)

Yea.. and I've seen footage of AKs firing with their dust covers off, beat to shit, bumpfired til they caught fire etc, I know they're safe.

Even so an irrational part of me would feel weird holding that big ol' piston even closer to my body.
