Draco is actually Century's name for the AK pistols they produce. They're the most commonly seen AK pistols so I also assumed originally that Draco was a "catchall" term for them.


Also, I'm proud of this thread. I can't believe we've made it 6 posts without someone calling the OP an idiot for even asking about the Draco as a concealed handgun, as I've seen on certain other forums "rlol"
Hey, if he can find a way to carry it concealed, more power to em! :thumbs2:

Re: The short version of an AK thats called a pistol'

Right, it's a pistol. It's legally a handgun.

You cannot carry it openly, just like you cannot currently carry a Glock, XD, or 1911 openly.
With a CHL, you could, however, carry it concealed.

Also, every state's laws are different. Carry laws in TN are much different than here. I can't comment on the legality of carrying it there, as I do not know the laws.
But in Texas, it's a handgun, and requires a CHL to carry concealed.

Re: The short version of an AK thats called a pistol'

It's legally considered a 'handgun', and you can carry it concealed with a CHL.

The long version is a rifle, and can be carried, concealed (If you can somehow fit it somewhere) or openly, without a CHL.
