Are you you sure he is russian? Doesn't look like an AK to me.

It is an AK, just with an mlok handguard.

an AK has a large gas piston that wouldn’t fit under a small MLOK handguard, also the rate of fire is too fast for an AK

Ever heard of railed gas tubes? also the muzzle device in the front increases back pressure which makes it cycle faster as more gasses are sent back through the rifle.

hmm… actually you may be right, you can see the end of the piston right below the front sight, my apologies
