The STizon 9mm AK Magazine Conversion Kit

Luke C ( ‪@BallisticAviation‬ ) is at GunCon 2024 hosted by ‪@brownells‬ and ‪@TheGunCollective‬ to talk with the guys from Stuff & Things. Stuff & Things specializes in creating some pretty interesting AK accessories and conversion kits and their latest kit is the STizon magazine. The STizon magazine is a 9mm Luger helical magazine compatible with popular 9mm AKs like the PSA AK V, KP9, and Draco, etc. Each magazine is sold in two different magazine body configurations (clear polycarbonate or aluminum) and comes with all the necessary parts needed to convert your AK to use the magazine.

For those who want to know: The CAI NAK 9 and 9S will hold 66-69 rounds. The PSA AKV will hold 56-59 rounds. The guys at STInc are still in the process of optimizing the followers, so the round count may change before final production.

[@Lavabird827]

69? Noice

[@joecentral-o9984]

I was hoping they'd keep that number 😂​@@Lavabird827

[@andiamocclash397]

Its pronounced the ''Steeez-on'' you amateurs 😎

[@classicbandgeek]

Nice.

[@kolper6799]

Nice.

Your auto-zone?

[@CallofDoobie585]

LMFAO

[@A_piece_of_broccoli]

Tizon attack confirmed

[@fearlessleader8623]

Thats actually freaking sweet

[@TheeGlocktopus]

Horribly impractical, throws the weight and balance off. Notoriously unreliable in dirty environments, harder to carry/pack multiple mags (strap several 2 liter bottles of soda to your IBA for the real experience) harder to manipulate, harder to reload. "Neat" doesn't actually translate into a useable product. I wouldn't have such a problem if they talked about it like the range toy that it is, but they dissect this thing like it's better than sliced bread. Conical magazines have been around for decades, but never seen widespread adoption. There's a reason for this.

[@fishpasteonyou1437]

Next year, Stuff & Things should show off an AK-74 helical magazine (just like the North Korean helical magazine).

[@motherurck7542]

And it'll probably work, cause as far as I know, there is no footage of the NK AK firing with that mag

[@isaacrhodes4617]

This would be epic

[@ValidSurvival]

The helical design is intriguing, and having options for clear polycarbonate or aluminum is a nice touch.

[@johnniewasr5740]

A solid one with windows/witness holes would be sweet also

[@adamcapi8819]

Hella cool magazine or helical magazine... both work

[@WarLordXavier]

Kel-Tech has been sharing their R&D 'sugar' stash haven't they?

[@crktritual]

Sharing booger sugar? In this economy?

[@cletus_maximus4711]

Ya know I was thinking the same exact thing. Kel-tech then KAK and now Stinc?

[@leo78744]

One day we will have all the guns in BF3

[@mylastaccountgotdeletedtha6936]

AEK-971, my beloved

[@azkrouzreimertz9784]

Honestly the coolest thing this year

[@ericbergfield6451]

Agreed as I have zero interest in AK's, but I've played enough Call of Duty, to still want this anyways

[@LifeisGood762]

PSA-44 hasn't dropped... yet.

[@j.j.123]

That's awesome, I don't even own a 9mm ak

[@boss350z5]

Change that... they're awesome.

[@pj4433]

Now you have a reason to get one

[@off6848]

Technically it’s a conversion so you could

[@garthsimanson8732]

Lost mine in a boating accident but I loved kt before that happened.

[@magaz]

A lot of people say it’s pronounced “STizon” but the correct way to say it is “STizon” it’s simple really.

[@MansMan42069]

Right? literally in the name. STizon not STizon.

[@andiamocclash397]

Its pronounced the ''Steeez-on'' you amateurs

Calico 9mm --"Hold my beer"

[@joecentral-o9984]

Cept that gun barely works if you can call it that.

[@RedZeppelinAirship]

@@joecentral-o9984 I have personally never seen a 9mm Calico jam, and I have 2 friends that own them and run cheap 9 through them and have no reliability problems (only accuracy). The 22LR Calico however, yeah never seen one run more than 8 rounds without jamming.

[@silverbug97]

​@@RedZeppelinAirshipI'm convinced most of the reliability issues people have with the Calico stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of how the magazines work. People either wind them up too much or too little and then are surprised to experience malfunctions.

[@joecentral-o9984]

nice touch getting brandon herrera at home making a video a video on the ppbizon at home

[@roaringsteelmedia]

It's pronounced STEE-zon Cause it brings that *STEEZ*

[@leviwoodring6101]

I pre order mine a while back. Glad to see an update on it. 😊

[@ToolsandTargets]

Preordered this as soon as I saw it. Can't wait!🔥😎🔥

[@StevenL00]

Can't wait to see you do some ammo testing w/ that too!

[@stincusa]

Love you

[@makevelicustoms]

@ToolsandTargets shouldn’t you be watching The Golden Girls reruns you sly dog 😅

[@eriklambert3809]

Same! It will be cool to see you use it! Gotta ask aluminum or poly? Either way it will look good on the wall!

[@ToolsandTargets]

@@eriklambert3809 I ordered the kit and an extra mag both aluminum first, then I got to thinking to myself, how can I not get that clear mag for the video? So yeah, I ordered a poly one too.😂

[@roxanneslp]

Thanks for the update!

[@browmanphillly]

The very first time we tried, we invested $1000 and after a week, we received $4500. That really helped us a lot to pay up our bills.

[@pliskenx51mm83]

The Bizon we have at home actually looks really good!

[@derekteter982]

Just yesterday I was just hoping someone would make something like this. Now I just gotta gather the scratch. Hope these sell well.

[@mega-nerd]

Really cool to see

[@Crangaso]

Removing rivets is real easy with the proper technique as mentioned (drilling the head)

[@marlowek1936]

Thats pretty damn dope!

[@brahtrumpwonbigly7309]

299 is an absolutely fantastic price. I was so ready to hear they cost as much as the gun. Seems like that's usually how this crap goes. I would spend 300 on this all day long.

[@mikea.6608]

Ordered mine!!

[@Cunning_Jester]

this is so cool

[@Terran994]

Sold. Just got to decide which platform to go with

[@triviszla1536]

certainly a vibe

[@WILDINO14]

🎉🎉🎉🎉 excited for it already have my pre-order in and like their goza bullpup kit definitely different 🎉🎉😊

[@stincusa]

Yessssssss

[@Lynndons]

Looks cool, wish I still had my original Izhmash Bizon kit build.

[@brianjarrard869]

Very practical

[@roaringsteelmedia]

I love 9mm AK's, this is awesome! If drums are cool, this is next level 🔥

[@narr0wm1nd49]

This solves the biggest drum problem, you can't shove them in a pouch.

[@proZach380]

Maybe work with PSA to sell a complete rifle/pistol

[@vincev4630]

Ah yes, turn it into a throw-away gun 😂

[@stylojp1385]

i love this guy so much

[@secrityforcemarine]

been waiting for this sense I was 9 playing syphon filter. pre ordered month ago and a spare mag

[@stevene6482]

Thanks for the memory lane!

[@nobodyspecial1852]

Still can't find the ignition capable taser.... real bummer.

[@Rendraco79]

NICE!

[@Ace01010]

I've been waiting for this day...

[@MatterMadeMoot]

That's badass. Would like to hear more about their printing process (what machines, material, etc) if they do end up using it for any production components.

[@stincusa]

We use Formlabs Fuse 1 and 1+ SLS printers in Nylon 12 and Carbon Fiber Nylon 11 for prototyping and some production parts like grips, mag extensions and even our bullpup kits.

[@alw1217]

It's pronounced Stizon, not Stizon, even tho it's really close to Stizon. Just remember Stizon, with emphasis on the Stizon part.

[@chrislo2731]

I always thought it was pronounced Stizon, thanks for the clarification.

[@vladboy1]

And the Russian is pronounced bizon

[@GSGunsandSnakes7.62]

Dam that's really nice.

[@bigbigmurphy]

This will make a fine self defense pistol!

[@darwincamacho1411]

Yes

[@HKGunPlay]

I am so getting one of these. The PP from COD. I can’t wait. Looks so sweet

[@Aiello_]

can't wait for the bullpup helix mag ak next year LOL

[@stincusa]

The only thing sexier than that STizon is Luke's hair. We're jealous.

[@TFBTVShowTime]

❤️🗿

[@maxfanin1792]

This "Diet Brandon Herara" is going to take some getting used to 😂

[@jonasgeez2140]

That gun looks fricken cool

[@Kaizergeld]

Well… I need that.

[@joshmajor8662]

YEP!!! These are apparently only Luke Lol

[@Sheppard2030]

Nice

[@TeraQuad]

12 ga STIzon?

[@rexmcstiller4675]

The Bizon 2 was also in 9x19 available

[@isaaco5679]

About time guns start going back to under-barrel tube magazines!

[@ImportedGuds]

I would imagine you can do both the bullpup and stizon mag conversion?

[@andrejohnson6101]

Bro unlocked the legendary skin 😂😂😂

[@sion8849]

I like how companies are now drawing designs from 3d printing 2a projects and just selling them, PSA did it and now them. Glad.

[@simoncleret]

Would be hilarious if you guys adapted it to other guns like the Skorpion EVO and whatnot.

[@pootinhammer]

ive been so excited for this for awhile and i don't even have a 9mm ak

[@starvinmarvin1200]

I got this gun maxed out on call of duty, id love one of these IRL

[@bigblue729]

Don’t own an akv but I’m ordering this kit

[@BiggumsSmalls]

Bizon with the 'tism- STizon

[@ChristianPerez-ku9dz]

I had zero plans to buy an ak……. Now I don't have a choice 😂

[@socialmedia5534]

Welp, just bought a MPT, now time to buy an AK-V fro. PSA lol

[@SolFireYT]

Time to get 2 PSAKVs

[@dbmail545]

Will there be a version for Colt SMG pattern magazines?

[@DonaldJPump24]

Will the final product be 3d printed as well?

[@ticket2space]

Dont forget the PAPs!

[@JJ_SDWR]

Huh. Unique, that's for sure...

[@the7observer]

now make a bullpup version of this.... :P

[@JRotten]

PSA needs to sell this already installed on the AKV

[@goontheracoon]

rly wanna see an smg with two mags on each side.. you can load while mag dumping, just having the last round switch what side it feeds from.. basically, you can spray and pray until the barrels glows.

[@ianray8823]

Oh thought this was an unlockable thing on a BattlePass

[@modakkagitplugga]

Any way for this madness to work on an ar or at least a galil?

[@jackmcgowan5848]

Lol ima need 2 AK-Vs now😂😂😂

[@treloughfarrer7604]

I didn’t want a 9mm AK but I do now just for that

Who knew I could actually get my very own Bizon from cod 😮

[@rogerstith8075]

What stock/brace is that? Anybody know?

[@stevensomersii5207]

Do these kits work with the chiappa pak9 variant? Im very interested in this kit man Also, super big Bizon fan. If this is actually legit it’s like a ak fanboy dream come true man

[@RidingandFlying]

90's Calico called. They want their mag back.

[@ognoders]

hoping for a WASR-M compatible version.

[@letsgetit90]

Yeah, I was hoping they would discuss the Wasr-M.

[@thomaslyons441]

So if I add this is that bullpup kit upside down... I could have a 9mm P90!

The bullfrog was my fav gun in warzone. I dont even have a 9mm ak but fuck i want it

[@maddog7012]

The only type of AK I'd ever want. God dammit!! 😂

Has a "Vera from Firefly" vibe.

It's a Callahan full-bore auto-lock. Customized trigger, double cartridge thorough gauge.
