Ive got a prejudice against AK's. Only because ive seen WAY too many in other peoples hands.
But THAT is totally BADASS. Well done!!!!
I was not an AK guy up until about 3 months ago when I bought an M85. Immediately I realized I am hooked and began the search for other AKs. I bought an M92, basically the same as the M85, then decided why have two of the same so I sold it and bought the Mini Draco.
Now I have carried and shot AKs but never really thought anything about them. Now that I own a couple I will say I am hooked.
Great looking build. I carried a Mini Draco SBR for a little over a year before building my 6.75" AR15 pistol in 300. The weight starts making a big difference, especially with a spare magazine. I far prefer the AK platform but the AR is just a little lighter. December marks my two year anniversary of rifle / PDW EDC.
I think the bag is not the most discrete, but given your size, manner of dress, and environment it may not be a big deal. Some of my readers carry similar bags because they don't care if they get a little more attention. I carry gray bags because I want to avoid all attention.

This is the final version:
The AFG did nothing for me.
I also made a new handguard and angled it to match the front sight.
You can't see it but I also added a RPK adjustable rear sight. This let me center the front sight for a better sight picture.
My wife did not like the camouflage backpack so I found a more civilian looking bag that it fits and it fits perfectly in this bag:
It allows me to carry it without anyone the wiser. I also carry first aid supplies, flash light, knife and a few other immediate need items. And the best part is my wife is not so concerned with it looking like a tactical bag that might have a gun in it.
Yes, I am a Baptist, and yes I carry a gun. You might think I carry a gun because I don't trust God. Well you would be wrong. I have complete faith in my Lord. It is mankind I have no trust in

Really dig the new bag, the wife made a good call.
I'd love to feature this on my blog, please let me know if I can email you some questions about it for an article.
DS, your comment about "grey" bags has been a constant quest and challenge for me. It means a lot of times in thrift stores, staring at briefcases and other strange cases Gotta think outside the box when going grey.
You can't beat the mountain, pilgrim. Mountains got its own way.
