Dear Mr. Zasta,
This is the dingus who got his money order sent to the wrong place and returned to the post office he mailed it from. As of today he has resent the letter with the 40 dollars and some extra change for your troubles. I hope I haven't put you through too much trouble and that the reemed out 5.45 muzzle brake is still available, and again sorry for the wait i wrote the address wrong.
from artyonk.

My SGL21

Has a hogue grip, PK-AS, and a solar tactical magazine well. I actually want to transition to an aimpoint mounted on an ultimak but I really love the PK-AS

What made you decide this wasn't email appropriate

So I always see people saying Century's imports are gtg. Is the AK63 ok? I'm itching for a cheap underfolder that isn't a Yugo, so I can put chinese furniture on it and pretend I'm Danny Trejo

autism

Any specific wooden or Bakelite pistol grip that will fit best on a Yugo? Anyone have an extra to sell?

>Is the AK63 ok?
It's not an import, but there are more than a few ok reviews. It doesn't have the ESS barrel that the Clearview/Classic AMD65s have despite the misinformation spread around. I believe they have a Green Mountain barrel, iirc.
I'm not sure you're going to be able to fit chink furniture to it without permanent modification, but that could be incorrect as I have no experience with the 63.
I'd say grab it and fuck around with it, if you can get it at a reasonable price.

Why not grab surp Yugo handguards that come with a free Yugo pistol grip?
apexgunparts.com/balkan-wars-handguard-set-yugoslavian-pending-c.html

Oh shit it does? I have a set in the mail. I didn’t even read to see pistol grip I saw balkan war handguards with maybe trench art and ordered them. Wow. I’m a brainlet.

Ah, I understand. I just noticed on Century's website that when you go to their firearms they seperate them by made in US, and Imports.
Yeah I'm gonna hold out for a deal and jump on it just for fun.

>apexgunparts.com/balkan-wars-handguard-set-yugoslavian-pending-c.html
You may need to double check what you ordered, I think they also had a separate listing that had handguards only.

Is the SLR 107R good to go?

Any bakelite grip will fit a Yugo, but you'll just need a different grip screw(the yugo screw's head is too large for a standard bake grip). I had one on my AB2 for a little while, until I found the "peg" bakelite too small for my preference.
You'll want something like this

no

WASR

will do.
they are just a little less quality than a wasr but by no means were they made by century. for 500 they are worth it

>Dear Mr. Zasta
lel, it's definitely the autism

Appreciation for the tips and help. This is my first AK so I only knew to grab a new recoil spring and the handguards/pistol grip set. I also got a retainer plate thing from brownells I heard is easy to use and better then the regular crook? I just wanna make sure my gun is good and doesn’t beat itself to death or knock rivets loose.

Your rifle is fine. imo the recoil spring issue is over stated, but I only have an OPAP and AB2 which both have a proper spring, so take that with a grain of salt.
If you start having FTE(ject) though you might consider it into the reason.
Although with GT I doubt it''ll be an issue.
Enjoy your DF and get some other mags (and some different muzzle devices you can play with)
>And some 8m3, JIC

Attached: 20170802_222743.jpg (3264x1836, 1.77M)

And a different nut, as that's what sets the angle and yugos don't have a regular AKM grip

The Yugo grip "nut" is riveted into the receiver. Angle is irrelevant. Now if you wanted to put a Yugo grip on a regular AKM, you'll need a longer grip screw, and the external "grip nut" on yugos is significantly lower thus needing a shorter screw.

Defines will! I wasn’t sure if the spring was an issue for real or not but I figured $16 on a new one to make sure the rifle was gonna be good was worth it. Any worthwhile muzzle devices or shouldn’t I stick with the slant break for now? Mag wise I have the pmag, and I ordered some serb mags and I got lucky in /bst/ and found 3 bakelites. Also 8m3? Will look into. Thanks /akg/ for being a useful general. /arg/ is useless.

>The Yugo grip "nut" is riveted into the receiver

you retarded no it's not

yuo have much bullet

If any of you guys had to pick between a Steyr aug and a gucci AK what would yall pick?

I already have a basic bitch AK but recently got some cash and im checking out the AUG hard.

It's not? Odd...

Attached: DSCF1575.jpg (3648x2736, 2.38M)

AUG is gud.

Personally prefer AKs.
You could buy a Tavor. Is basically an AK bullpup. Or a Galil in caliber of your choosing.

The So called "Serb" mags are hit or miss, so don't expect the best. Unless you get actual surplus mags, there's almost always an issue of "tolerance stacking" and they'll need fitting of some sort.
Look at Arms Of America or What-a-Country, for surplus mags. (WaC has Hungarians for like $15 and Polish for $13.)
>Also 8m3?
It's a "hunting" round that is notorious for it's fragmentation. Pay no attention to the Tulammo meme, as the 8m3 is made by the same company (Ulyanovsk) that made the stuff that was imported 20+ years ago.
Congrats on the bakes, hope you didn't give too much, given the current market.

Well than a bake grip shouldn't fit. Some user actually cut one in half to show the different angles for this exact situation, hopefully he'll pop up

Give it a year. Part of the reason the market for exponentially fucked in the past 6 months is because people associate Russia with AKs and every Normie-No-Guns and their neighbor is trying to buy one right now. They try and buy a saiga or vepr on jewbroker, see nothing but rifles/shotguns marked up 500% then settle for a different variant marked up 250% only to latet bitch hurr durr AK market is dead. I mean, shit, the same kind of people paying $750 for a wasr were the same kind of people emptying their wallets last year for a heavily used .410 saiga because they genuinely thought they were outright illegal. Not banned from import, as in a crime to be in the possession on citizens. And no one could tell them different.
The new members our community has acquired are rapidly killing us and they're too stupid to notice.

Every piece of furniture you have is a different color and finish

Did Slovakia make any AKs, or just buy them from the Russians?

Wtc 8m3? Haven't seen any in a minute.

Is there legit anything wrong with these if you swap the bolt for a proper comblock unit?

Like the country Slovakia or Czechoslovakia?
Either way someone here owns a super rare Czech AKM, but I'm not sure what the deal is with those. They've been using VZ's for a while

headspacing is an issue, also the trunnions are made of playdough

The trunnions are still shit. And a new bolt wont be properly headspaced.

That would turn the rifle from a possible bomb, into a definite bomb. It wouldn't be headspaced, as if that wasn't a problem enough.
Also
>trunnions will still be super weak. May see cracking in a couple hundred rounds
>rails will still be super weak. May see deformation in a couple hundred rounds
>receiver will still be super weak. May see a crack in a thousand rounds
>barrel will still be bottom barrel. Crowning will chip, rifling will degrade in a couple hundred rounds. May bend from a hard drop

Duh. Thanks user. I need to wake up a little more before posting.

A couple hundred rounds is stretching it. But the gun is confirmed to beat its self apart within a few thousand rounds.

How good are you at giving head?

>They've been using VZ's for a while
They use the Bren 805 now. Fantastic rifle.

Just got this a few weeks ago. ArmoryUSA receiver with a romanian parts kit. built back in 2004 or something. Just got the magpul grip on it the other day. Feels great.

what kind of scope is that there?

Yo update Century responded to my email about the order and they ended up sending me the tracking info, it is shipped. So they really do have the furniture.

223 days pending FBI background check this is hard

So 8m3 is just a hollow point? I prefer fmj and I kinda like golden tiger. Also a Jow Forumsommando let me get them for $35 a pop so that doesn’t seem to bad. I’ve seen $60-100 for them.

Any of you guys every try shooting a suppressed AK? How was it?

I want a Sig so goddamn much.

I should hope they'd be thorough considering it's such a dangerous weapon with that slightly shorter than normal barrel.

I'm gonna ask you fellows a semi-dumb question when do you think kvar will have slr-107rs back? I already asked them and haven't got a response.

It's a lot of responsibility that goes along with the Great Seal blazoned cuck stamp. To think if it fell into the wrong hands

Post your handguards when you get them. Hopefully you get something cool. I'm thinking of grabbing a second set while they're still available.

They won't tell you. Wait half a year and check, Arsenal isn't shipping anything stateside at the moment due to mil contracts, allegedly.

it's an RPG optic, I can't be fucked to look up the name though

What AK should I get
My budget is ~1800 and I'm open to getting an SBR.

I’ll make sure I do, those ones you got there are cool! What’d you do with the stock ones? Was thinking I might finish them in a red stain.

Wasr or Cugir paratrooper. Spend the rest of your budget on upgrades and ammo

They're sitting in a bag with the stock grip. Probably will stain them purple or something absurd.

553s will be around awhile and can be custom built to your configuration including paint, steel or aluminum lower, diopter or rail

I guess I'll opt for one of those only if the 550 doesn't make a return, because that's what I really want.

>only bring in 50 SG550s

Goddamnit. Why?

Hi /ak/
Whats the consensus on the AIMS 74 rifles? I know they're Romanian parts kits but it seems like some important parts are american made and I don't know how I feel about that. I want a 74 because I love my 47 so much but they're getting really hard to find especially sub 1000. All opinions would be nice.

Attached: aims_74.jpg (600x300, 42K)

Who knows, someone may bring in more. I don't understand why they wouldnt
I'm assuming here but my guess is it has something to do with getting ATF red tape? Why are they approving unlimited 553s and limiting 550/551/751?

ATF faggotry, that’s why.

I’ve spoken to JDI’s owner on the phone though and you can still get your 550. You just have to buy the 550 upper conversion kit they have on their website. Unfortunately, the kit doesn't come with a lower, bolt, charging handle, or stock with spring and pin. But if you buy those separately, you are only about $1500 in the hole on top of the $1600 you spent in the upper.

>Swiss Jews are most expensive Jews

Oh shit, sign me the fuck up

>All opinions would be nice
After finally getting to play with a Saiga 5.45 rifle recently, you should get a 74 type. Recoil was at least half, and I thought it would be about equal.

Attached: IMG_20180603_180123746.jpg (3194x2448, 1.6M)

Everything I've heard is that 5.45 is a sick cartridge that can cause some tumbling havoc and is really accurate so it will be my next gun but they're hard to find besides these Romanian rebuilds and some arsenals here and there but those are around 1500

I don't see a 550 conversion on the site.

Is there any non surplus 5.45 to be found anymore? Also, how the fuck can I get my hands on a non 106 SLR in 2018? If not, what’s arguably the best quality AK nowadays? I’ve heard cz 58’s have dried up, and new WASRs are trash.

sanswissarms.com/news.html

Read the bottom of the page. Kits have been ATF approved for import. Call them to order.

>Tfw found Norinco hunter conversion I forgot about under bed
I really gotta get a safe.

Wait 6-12 months and see how the market changes. Half a year ago things were aplenty. Now we're in a drought.

Problem is I don't want to be totally out of options and I don't see things getting better without the russian sanctions being lifted and thats going to be like a 10 year thing I feel.
ammoseek.com/ammo/5.45x39mm

Really tired of people always asking if there is any 545 left its just as cheap if not cheaper thna 556 you just have to use ammoseek

Ever heard of a country called Bulgaria?
