Ok, that's all I meant, you haven't bought the gun yet, so you have options.

And AFAIK, ICS doesn't make an AK47, onlt the AKM-74 -- gun is outwardly similar, but not the same mags. AK74 mags are easy to fit in pouches.

As for the leg panel, I presume you mean something like this dropleg platform:

As with drop leg holsters and stuff, we generally aren't used to having stuff strapped to our legs so it takes some getting used to, specially when you have something with noticeable weight.

But re-reading your post from before that, it sounds like you wanted the leg panel just to fit AK mag pouches. That panel is MOLLE (if you aren't familiar with what MOLLE is, those straps all over it are used to weave in different types of fasteners [MALICE clips, MOLLE2] which hold pouches or whatever you put on in place), so unless you meant some kind of subload leg rig with pouches (like a dump pouch) to keep your mags in, you might as well just get a black molle vest and put the molle pouches directly onto that.
