Anyone know the answer to this? Bit of an update: if I keep both eyes open while looking through it, I can sort of see the fuzzy outline of something that resembles a crosshair there. Not well enough to use it to aim, however.

This shouldn't matter, no? I'm looking at it indoors, in a well let space, with the scope pointed at a white wall. Illumination shouldn't matter if I can't focus on / see the crosshair itself.

Now guys, I have an idea.

It's pretty easy to lose the reticle, you just have to move your head back and forth till you find it and possibly change your plane of focus
It's weird to explain cause it's 100% a feel thing

I've tried looking it through an eyecup, without an eyecup, I've tried moving my head around just about every which way from every angle and I still can't see it. Meanwhile my dad and brother can both pick up the rifle and see the crosshair at a glance without having to do anything in particular. What's the best way to approach finding where the reticle is? Because with one eye it doesn't even show up as something blurry- it literally looks like I'm looking through a telescope, everything is clear and focused 4x image with no reticle over it. I'm really frustrated, hoping I didn't just blow $350 on a paperweight because my eyes are fucked

It's an etched reticle so the only answer is that you're doing something wrong whether it's your autism eyes or something else
Just try both eyes open and changing your focus idk man

Attached: Scopeweed.jpg (1437x1458, 248K)

Try adjusting your eye relief. You might be putting your eye too close or too far away from the scope to pick up the reticle.

What do you guys mean by adjusting eye relief / focus? Is there supposed to be a knob for that somewhere, or do you just mean changing how far back I sit from the scope? Sorry if it's a dumb question

I'm mad they didn't put more holdovers and have a top vertical line so you can pick up the point quickly

does yours illuminate?

My first akm. So far pretty fun

Has Russia made any scopes more modern than the PSO?

Yeah, I’m talking about how far your head is from the scope.

Som1 called my rifle ugly, what do u guys think?
I know it's not a real SVD, but I'm happy to have a super rugged rifle that can shoot cheap steel cased .308

thinkin bout thous AKs

Looks good dude

I’m not a fan but if you like it tell everyone else to eat a dick

why aks have ribbed and smooth dust covrs

In Ak47 they found that it was not that easy to add some optics to the gun at that time compared to Americans ,by adding ribbed covers adjustable sights could be installed over the gun as it need of shooter, but as ak74 was a modern version ,more accurate so the adjustment of sights was not an important factor so they got back to smooth dus covers.

looks very metro

Fuck, boyos. Lately Stalker and Metro give me a major hankering for an AK, but looking closer at the games, I find that they only use 74's. I want to make a purchase that lets me get my Artyom/Strelok on, but 74's are more expensive, harder to come by, have more expensive mags, use more expensive ammo, and to boot, I already have an AR so 5.45 isn't that big a change up.
How do I reconcile my desire to cheeki breeki with the fact that I don't really want a 74?

What's wrong with just buying a 7.62 gun and kitting it out to look like a gun out of metro/stalker? 7.62x39 isn't any less or more cheeki breeki than 5.45 is. It just comes down to preference, if you like 7.62 over 5.45 then just buy a 7.62

thank you. I think /arg/ has poisoned my mind. Every second I had previously spent thinking about how to kit up a basic bitch 7.62x39 to look like the bois from metro last light, I was haunted by the voices of nameless tripfags circling around my head and whispering that they know I'll be using fakelite or that it's not even close because the REAL one was in 5.45 so what I would make is a total abomination
I think I need to get out of the house more

Fuck em my man

What said, fuck em. Don't ever base your desire to buy something off what other people think about it, unless the context is you trying to buy a shitty AK that explodes in 1-2k rounds fired. As long as you buy a base, decent AK for your project, who fucking cares what caliber it's in? I'm in the same boat as you when it comes to AKs. All of mine are 7.62 because when I started getting into AKs I already had a handful of ARs in 5.56, I wanted my first AK to be something substantially different caliber and feeling wise. Bought a milled 7.62x39 SAM7 and never looked back, was more than satisfied with my purchase. Love the way 7.62x39 feels when you fire it.

I guess I'm just retarded then because I'm still having trouble with it moving my head back and forth. If I am the scope at something really close by (10-15 feet away) with a white background, I can now see the reticle very clearly, but then if I slowly rotate myself and the gun to aim at something distance, without changing my stance or head position relative to the scope, the reticle fades out of view and is completely gone again. Do I just fundamentally not understand how scopes work? I feel like I'm in a single digit IQ right now

rate my ak, anons. it's all stocko and clean and simple, just the way I like it. I want to get a set of the exact same furniture but in a plum color, but I don't think they make those for milled receivers, do they?

Im trying to find a replacement muzzle brake for my amd. Any advise on finding muzzle brakes or flash hiders that are over 4 inches?

that's beautiful, what did you use as your base?

followup, Why is /arg/ so spiteful and nitpicky?

Part of me wants to dislike them because its just pretending to be an SVD, but honestly the furniture is really well done, and looks great. Guessing that one is in 308? It looks way better than the 7.62 veprs that people dress up for sure. I love it.

neat

Getting my Maadi tomorrow, $1000 for a non steyr import.

I'm going to continue AK posting because I am working overnights and I'm tired of playing videogames.

Has anyone used this before to amend their NFA trust? I've got a krink kit coming and daddy wants his SBR

>followup, Why is /arg/ so spiteful and nitpicky?
/arg/ has been in an ever-downward spiral of tribalism for a long time. If you think people bitching about Century is bad here, try to talk about anything other than DD, Radian, or BCM in /arg/. Lots of tripfags that like to use it as their diary. All that money just to shoot a .22 round and not be able to hit anything past 25yds. I don't know how they haven't imploded.

Should'a got an IO. LMAO @ ur life

$75 - $80. Stay away from JewBroker

Haven’t seen any on AKfiles in a while under $90

Should I go for a PSL look or should I make it a RPK? I'm leaning towards the RPK route.

I think it’d look pretty sweet with an M60 bipod. You’d have to remove the front sight, probably profile the barrel and build a special collar for it (likely around $200) but it’d be sweet. I’m fixing to send this upper out to john at retro arms work to have the barrel turned and a collar made.

I only ever play stalker with mods that include all the 7.62 rifles anyway

Hi, John at Retro Arms
protip - this isn't arfcom. Don't shill yourself here.

Shoo, Shoo, furniture Jew

If I was John, I’d probably have posted a pic of the final product and not an M60 bipod slapped onto an HBAR A2 upper. I was suggesting him because throwing M60 bipod onto shit is dank, I’m doing it, and so far as I know, he’s the only guy doing the collars.

>India either buying 750,000 AK-203's from Russia or being licensed to manufacture AK-203's to replace the INSAS

thoughts?

No, YOU dont.

Yes we saw.

Patently false
Looks terrible imo. It doesnt go with the rifle and the wood looks downright cheap and super soft. My advice is stop trying to make it something it isnt remotely close to, both aesthetically and mechanically.
Theres been an alarming number of ARtards here lately, not only posting in this general they once talked shit about, but also oddly under the false impression that this is an AR/AK general.
Even here they're still seeking validation. Hilarious.

203 is probably the better option out of the current KC offerings in that caliber, looks better than the ak-15 pattern guns. That's a lot of guns too.

That's not Bob Ross, thats Seth Rogen with an AK

My doubt is so big you couldn’t lift it

this is the most retarded thing I've ever read
>question
Does anybody know if current form 1 times are as short for a trust as they are for individuals? I'm have no NFA items, but am looking to form 1 a few AK's very soon and figured a trust would be best so I could add some family members as trustees later on. Any thoughts?

The tripfags here have no taste. You do you.

Is there any way to attach an AES-10b carry handle to a regular old Romy RPK?

Yeah, get a handle and bracket (or make the bracket, they aren't too easy to find) and tack weld it to the RSB

So if you post this in every thread but the most you get are a couple guys here and there while also meeting an overwhelming disdain for discord from the rest of the /akg/, for what purpose do you continue to spam your gay lil chatroom?

Should be about the same. I've got a trust and did a couple end of 2018.

If you're the only AK discord, you are the largest by default. Even if you have only 3 members.

Let me rephrase, I want it to grow and be the same as the AR Discord and have everybody be happy and then delete it out of the blue

Best route to put an optic on a krinkov? would prefer to stay away from side rail just because I want to be able to fold it without taking off the optic.

What sub do I poke around in, friend?

Try applying yourself, just ever so slightly. I think you can figure it out.

At first glance that doesnt look like it would retain zero very well

It's mounted to the rear sight block, retard.

Do you trust your irons to retain zero?

That's why I said at first glance

So is there any point to the overpriced bullshit mags like the bakes and ((10)) mags other than memes? My generic $5 Polish steel mags feed fine.
