AKs are dead, post ARs
No. We still bakelite.
Inb4 all the retarded bait posts that people will respond to anyway
I'm doing a Romanian AK build and when pressing in my first front trunnion rivet, the rubber block that came with the tool was too tall and the rivet head wasn't flush with the receiver so it didn't sit right. I was thinking of fixing this by pressing it down with the long rivet tool usually used for the rear trunnion rivets. Thoughts?
Friendly reminder that the current gen of PSAK is superior to the WASR
>tfw the sun won’t cooperate
Got any proof?
OP pic reminded me of a question I had been meaning to ask. What's the length of a 74 style brake? If I were to get an Arsenal 104/6/7-CR, cut the barrel down, then pin and weld a 74 style brake onto it, would the barrel length be over 16" or not?
Post contractor ak.
5.56 might be my favorite AK. Should I feel bad?
No, it's an objectively superior cartridge, especially when compared to 7.fat2
this best of both worlds and superior, upboat!!
Have a SLR104FR, and a VEPR 12. Should I convert the SLR to an AK105, or get a .30 caliber AKM first?
Also on the to do list; krink, PSL54, RPK74

Gross.

Nigga that's gay.

Wasrs have been blowing up for people ever since they first started importing them
I'd still kill my own mother for a good 5.45
Do you have the tension spring with it?
How noticeable is the weight difference between a yugo and regular milled akms? Also how hard is it to find good furniture and extras that will fit?
Been seeing a lot of the century built ones for super cheap and I might want in on it
feels tarkov man
too short you’ll either need the one that Arsenal puts on the cr models or the extendo 4 piece cnc warrior makes
also you if you plan on doing the gas block yourself you have to use a legit russian one for a sgl or a bulgaria one for the slr, the barrel dimensions are different so can’t mix and match
Don't just rattle your mouth off without any proof or substance, it's a waste of everyone's time and could get someone hurt.
Say what you will, I love my WASR
>Drum
Fuck, I really need to get one. I have a fuckin D60 for my AR for absolutely no reason.
using the Akbuilder tool?
I would take the long cupped rivet tool smack it with a hammer to seat it down then rebuck the tail.
At worse you drill and re rivet
Anyone want to explain exactly what is considered an Arm Brace for a Pistol AK? It seems I cant find a solid answer anywhere and I want to know before deciding if I should build a fullsize or a pistol.
Same user, I love mine
Edit:
Looked at your picture again.
You are going to have to drill it and completely re rivet it. The neck of the rivet swelled when you pressed it, I doubt youll be able to get it to seat properly
Thiss nigga gets it
I really want one of Atlantic's Polish WBP builds, but they're OOS and nobody knows when they'll be restocked. I was going to buy the used one on the files but the seller hasn't gotten back to me.
Should I just buy a WASR? I really want dimples and dat shiny BCG.
Bought it with an awful """BFPU""" look
user offered me choice between the SAR-1 and Tantal pictured for $700. Which is the better gun? Either one looks nice, will be used for a proper AKM type clone.
tantal isnt an akm, so how could you make an akm clone? get the SAR
SAR, like said, tantal isn't an AKM, and 5.45 is dead anyways.
If you have to ask if you should buy a WASR, the answer is probably yes.
Desert fox has E German folders for $85
desertfoxsales.com
From what I hear the Polish builds are as good or better than WASRs, and I'm trying to decide if I want to wait for them to come back in stock because I'm autistic about the lack of dimples
Needs a chink drum for max terrorwave
Are the EG the better folders?
Atlantic just got a shipment of stuff from WBP so I would guess they are building guns right now, shouldn’t be too long before they have some to sell.
They're lever folders, which is why they're so cheap.
Imo romy push buttons are the best due to the offset position of the stock. Those tend to run $150+. For 85 you can have a fielded folding stock that drops into fixed trunions and add a riser if needed.
Thanks user, I appreciate it. How long do they typically take to sell out? I've for it set up to email me, but I'd really rather not miss this batch
Why is 5.45 dead?
I'm taking the Yugo out to test a 75 rd drum. I kinda want to just burn through some ammo, tho, for kicks. How much should I shoot?
Its not, its just a meme
How much should a Arsenal SGL31 go for? I know pastebin recommends a vague 1k+.
They sell out pretty fast, and sometimes their email notification doesn't work. Keep an eye on the site.
>Should 900-1200
>Does
$2000-3000 because people are stupid.
Fugg. Thanks user
But where's the proofs?
It's not dead, but it's definitely on life support. The only people who care about in America are slavaboos. Everyone else will take 5.56, which is already abundant and more developed; or 7.62x39, which most AKs in America are chambered in and which at least has the benefit of being a decent durr round.
>tfw never even seen a trench art furniture set irl
>tfw only reason to buy a pap is for this
Forgot pic related
If you're lucky a dong will have carvings but it's rare
I've heard that Yugo 5.56 mags don't work in chinkshit, can anybody attest?
Np good luck. I'd get one myself if I had the spare cash.
>unpainted slant brake
The mag situation in 5.56 Yugos is a shitshow
Whats everyones take on the maadi? I hear so many good reviews but I have serious doubts a bunch of illiterate jawas in sand huts hammering a gun together is a formula for a better rifle
>he doesnt know Steyr import Maadis are """Egyptian"""
>literally Russians using Russian tooling in Egypt
You are actually retarded
>hmm, people say these guns are good, but I have the notion that because they come from the desert, these people clearly don't know how to build guns right
>even though they received training and tooling from the Russians
>and people seem to tout it as the closest thing to an actual akm.
Fuck off
I asked for details on why people love it, not your sassy ass attitude
Really? I've got like 12 sets.
Not that rare.
>gunbroker.com
What the actual fuck am I looking at
AKM clone and lore, otherwise they are pretty rough rifles
I'm not talking about the booster (though that's what was in the picture I posted), I was referring to the 74 style brake like pic related. The gun in the middle of OP's picture looks like it might be 16", but I can't tell. Iirc, up to the threads is 12.5 inches, and I would be pinning and welding onto that, but I'm not sure I'd get to 16" total barrel length with that.
As for building, I don't plan on converting a SLR or SGL. I'd likely just be buying one and getting the barrel cut down, provided what I'm thinking of meets the legal requirements.
That bakelite stock is super sexy.
Unlike this disgusting underfolder which is also for commies
Looks like a scam
I like your picture friendo.
Git
Your the biggest gag of them all
>Non firing replica
Can someone confirm/deny that SLR106s can take AK74 mags?
it will only feed about 15 rounds before it jams
>I like your picture friendo
Is it yours? I probably saved it off of here tbqh
Ya it is, but your welcome to post it. I dont even have that one saved on my phone.
OP, that AKSU is looking so good I cum pant.
Christ guys, how can I know if my AK will chernobyl on me?
Good think I made my screw build AK-47 clone myself, never trust Chinese AKs guys.
That's a pretty rifle. Thanks for posting pictures user

ARfags are a damaged breed. Have a (you) and git
Will a Bulgarian full auto Fire Control Group work in my SLR-107? What about in my FM-AK47-11 vepr?
I'm not trying to get my pupper shot as this is fully legal to own and use (so long as you don't have 3 pins). I'll be discarding the auto sear. What I want is the rate-reducer, since I've had some bolt carrier tail deformation. I don't want a kaboom, and this is a safety device.
Will it work? Is your average Arsenal semi FCG interchangeable with this?
forgot to mention It's an AK74 FCG. Will it work in 7.62x39 rifles?
Those fags at AKP are a bunch of wannabe nazis.
opinions on the zastava m77 i got 4 back when they first hit the market ($549 a pop).
Overall i am satisfied with it i occasionally have a fail to feed one a specific mag/rifle combo looking at either one i cant see any differences in quality or any manufacture defects. and i learned the hard way to not use cheap m14 mags for making my 19round conversions.
na senpai it still too short 74 brake is 2.45 inches
cr model once cut is 12.5’ish
It’s close and could probably pass visually but it would look autistic and give local alphabet man an erection if he decided to drop his little stick down the barrel which also takes into account the micro bolt face gap
could just thread the barrel and use an 5.56 brake like RD does unless you want that slav aesthetic
tl;dr
no you didn’t listen
either the cr model brake or this thingy
cncwarrior.com
>What I want is the rate-reducer, since I've had some bolt carrier tail deformation. I don't want a kaboom, and this is a safety device.
The rate reducer will do nothing to prevent/reduce tail deformation. Your tail is softer than your hammer.
It is also not necessary to prevent a kaboom because if the hammer should fall before the bolt is in battery (possible in a full auto AK without the rate reducer), it will hit the tail and prevent the gun from firing.
Won’t work unless your bolt has pic related (it trips the release)
only surplus or some early imports (rare) have them
nigger AK's were invented by commies
>74 brake is 2.45 inches
That's what I needed to know. Thanks for the help.
