HTIS Airsoft provides an in-depth comparison of various gas blowback (GBB) AK platforms, with the host analyzing their strengths and weaknesses. Instead of sitting at a desk, he stands before a rack of AKs, showcasing models like his personalized VFC AK with its steel barrel and realistic, narrower receiver. He also highlights his modified WE AKM, favored for filming and training due to its realistic bolt action and durability, despite its bulky magazines. Other featured models include the 2015 GHK Version 2 AKM and his extensively used GHK AK, both featuring real wood and steel barrels, with one even having a hand-stamped serial number. A GHK AK74 plum set with authentic Ukrainian furniture is also discussed.

He notes that WE and GHK Version 2 AKs have receivers sized similarly to AEGs, making them slightly larger than real AKs, unlike the more accurate VFC and GHK Version 3 models. He briefly touches on the use of AEG AKs for filming in cold weather when GBBs were impractical. Explaining the absence of Tokyo Marui (TM) AKs, he criticizes the AKX as fictional and the TM AKM as overly plastic, preferring platforms that perform well right out of the box.
