Just sold mine as part of the "reduction in force" my collection is undergoing.
Kicks stoutly, but not overly harsh. Worked well with buckshot and slugs out of the box but you will need to tweak the gas system if you wish to run target loads instead, also this will be necessary if you wish to drop the money on an SBS stamp. The 6 round box mag that came with are decent, the 12 round box mags are overly long, and I found the pro-mag 12 round drum to be a pleasant size, about the diameter of a grapefruit. I actually preferred the 12 round drum to the 20-rounder as there was less wasted space involve (shells are only stored on a ring running the outer diameter of the drum, inside that is more or less wasted space), and it was a handier size and weight. If yours comes with the conventional stock you can cheap out and replace it with a tapco pistol grip and telescoping stock, or you can spend a bit more and do a full stock conversion where you change out the trigger group and make it into a true AK regarding pistol grip location and shoulder stock (this is also obviously a more advanced evolution than the cheap tapco replacement).
All in all I liked it and was quite happy with the system. Mine also had a side rail so I tossed a mount and a red dot on it for giggles. Also added a flash hider/striking device to the muzzle. Only reason I sold it was the desire to free up money for other things.
