Description
Dytac SLR Airsoft AK Krink AEG (Black – SLR-AK01-BK)
The Dytac SLR AK Krink is a compact AK-style electric rifle that brings the look of SLR Rifleworks’ modernised Kalashnikov builds to airsoft. ‘Krink’ is the popular nickname for the short-barrelled AK carbines, and this black version (SLR-AK01-BK) combines that short, punchy profile with custom-style upgrades for a rifle that looks very different from a standard wooden AK.
Dytac is a Hong Kong company best known for licensed parts and replicas, and its SLR range recreates the work of SLR Rifleworks, an American shop known for modern AK furniture and handguards. The Krink is a great choice for players who love the AK but want a compact, contemporary rifle for CQB and fast-moving games.
Design and handling
The short Krink layout makes the rifle quick to bring up and easy to move with in tight spaces, while still giving you the familiar AK controls: a large selector on the right side and a paddle magazine release in front of the trigger guard. The SLR styling replaces traditional furniture with modern parts that give you more options for mounting accessories.
Please check the product images for the exact handguard, stock and rail layout of this SLR-AK01-BK, so you can plan your optic and accessory choices.
Performance and set-up
As an AEG, the Krink runs from a rechargeable battery and performs consistently in all weather. The hop-up can be adjusted to suit your preferred BB weight, and the short barrel makes it a natural fit for close-quarter sites where handling counts for more than outright range.
Compact AKs have limited battery space, so check the space and connector on the rifle before choosing a battery, and ask us if you are unsure which pack will fit.
Getting started
Before your first game, charge your battery fully on a suitable charger, fit it and check the rifle fires on safe, semi and auto as expected. Set the hop-up from zero, adding a little at a time until the BB holds a straight, flat line, and then check where it lands at the distances you usually shoot.
Your site will chronograph the rifle before play. Spend a few minutes learning how to change the battery and clear a jam so you are not doing it for the first time mid-game.

Compatibility
As an AK-pattern AEG, the Krink is designed around AK-pattern AEG magazines; most mainstream brands fit, but fit can vary between makers, so try a spare before relying on it in a game. Check the battery space and connector before buying a battery. Rail and muzzle accessories should be checked against the rifle before ordering.
Care and maintenance
Remove the battery whenever you are not using the rifle, and never leave a LiPo charging unattended. Run a cleaning rod with a clean patch through the inner barrel regularly to keep accuracy consistent, and only use clean, seamless BBs of a decent brand.
After muddy or wet games, wipe the outside down and let the rifle dry naturally before casing it. Check that rails, accessories and the stock are tight, and have any gearbox work carried out by an experienced technician.
Who is it for?
