I used these exact things to recrown my guns. It worked great, but I also already had a crown started in the first. Hes going to be starting from a flush surface, and that might not work well on something that isnt recessed.
Then again, he could just bevel the very end of the bore and leave the rest of the crown flush. Some MAKs/NHMs went that route.

I really want confirmation if that Europoor bought a Pioneer Arms AK and put an AK47 stock on it
Evan Diaz
Looks like my rear sight leaf is slightly canted, but the good news is the block itself is aligned properly. Should I leave it alone, try to fix it by hand, or just buy a new rear sight?
Henry Gonzalez
If it doesn't affect how you shoot, leave it. Less of a chance that the "fix" makes things worse.
Aiden Allen
I'd replace it with a new one. Is this the original or one you bought afterwards?
Sebastian Brown
Ignore this retard
Connor Nelson
That would drive me insane, personally. Fuck just looking at that picture is bugging me.
Like a tilted picture frame.
Julian Allen
Where can I cop this stock and does it work with the latch?
James Moore
So arsenal is the best I can do if I don't want to fuck around on the secondhand market?

Alright, so I’m stepping into the AK world after being an AR guy for years. I bought one of those Izhmash parts kits off of rguns (pic related is what they show on their site), and I plan on using a Childers receiver. To keep the end product 922r compliant, I was planning on swapping out the fcg, using a US made slant break, and of course the receiver would count as apart which gives me five components. After doing some research though, I guess I’d need six altogether.
Is there a US made barrel that doesn’t suck ass I could use, or is there an easier component to swap out that my research hasn’t lead me to? I’m hesitant to use different furniture because I want to keep it as original looking as possible, and I’d ideally like to not have to worry about autistic shit like swapping out magazine floor plates and followers if I can help it. I can settle though if it looks like it be a pain in the ass to do another route. Thanks for reading my blog
Joshua Richardson
The original
Any recommendations for a new rear sight? It’s a Polish gun but all the Polish ones are out of stock
Dominic Hill
>caring about 922r
Use a romanian barrel and own 1 (one) US made mag that you totally keep in at all times.
Dominic Reyes
Use a Polish barrel from AOA.
Carson Price
I like my adjustable RPK sight for the lines underneath
Andrew Rogers
i am. who is it?
Matthew Hill
First AK, should i go 5.45 or 7.62?
Kayden Bennett
Base pilled and blacked
Kayden Reed
You can still find some new vepr's out there. They're worth digging for, if you want quality.
Benjamin Watson
Thanks, I’ll keep looking and figuring this out. I’m assuming most US made AK components are still absolutely dog shit compared to their Eastern European counterparts? The idea was that I would build this rifle over the course of a few months/year when I had the spare money and a better living situation, so I don’t mind giving every component serious thought before buying
Nathan Brown
Go for .223. 5.56 is too expensive and designed to wound whereas .223 was designed to kill from the ground up
Gavin Gray
5.45
Blake Russell
Why are you this way?
Elijah Harris
but 5.45 is dead meme and will run out of usa, better get 5.56mm ak, like ACE
Aaron Hall
Bold of you to try and build right from the get go, unless you’re sending it out somewhere to be built.
Bentley Fisher
get a 7.62. most AK's in 5.56 are way too expensive, you can get decently priced AK's in 7.62, plus ammo's fairly cheap.
Henry Gray
What's the point of buying an ak for aesthetics if not for either the Eastern bloc conscript aesthetic or the African militia man aesthetic
Ian Edwards
If I had the tools I would have tried it myself, but I think I’m going to have it built once I gather all the parts. Since I have a lot coming up in the near future, it’ll probably be awhile before I can get it sent out anyways so I’m not on a time crunch to get it done. I just don’t know who does the best work for the price, so I’ll have to look into that when I can
Justin Lopez
I need an adjustable stock that's has a LOP of at least 14" so I'm getting a UBR with a buffer tube adapter. How dose /akg/ feel about my decision?
Elijah Williams
no one gives a fuck what you
Josiah Jones
>AR stock on an ak
trash. Enjoy your ridiculously high cheek weld and extra weight
Bentley Rivera
The cheek weld is no higher than the buffer tube which will sit almost exactly where the comb of a straight wood stock would be.
Jonathan Cooper
Is the MFER is only real good option for a lightweight mag funnel?
Jacob Garcia
nope. I've tried AR stocks. They sit like a half inch higher than milspec AK stocks. Buffer tubes are flat, AK stocks dip down below the boreline.
Dominic Flores
7.62 always
Luke Barnes
UBR stocks look cool but they’re heavy af.
Grayson Williams
PBS sights are pretty great.
Camden Reyes
You can't be this retarded
Those are viable aesthetics. I've never seen wood and plastic be well received here, only wood and metal
Matthew Morris
No it isnt. It's close but still slightly higher, which makes a world of difference when ADS.
Look at the comb of a stock and you'll see it falls directly in line with the top of the receiver (like a triangle folder). The buffer tube itself will follow this line too, but that's literally the buffer tube only. Once you put furniture on you're raising your view with it.

Haha what
Jaxson Walker
Who remembers that autist from a few years ago who would constantly slide this thread with the same fucking military pictures?
Logan Hill
>dirtbag
Carson Thompson
yeah, with the occasional memeball tier Russia shit
Gavin Smith
Ahahahaha I forgot about that. Truly different times
Owen Carter
Was pretty sure it was vince.
Grayson Barnes
How do I get pic related?
Justin Watson
What pixel are you referring to
Jack Taylor
Very carefully
Nathan Powell
Just get a SAR1 and be happy
Juan Wood
Yeah I’m thinking you’re based
Luke Rodriguez
Someone say SAR1
Tyler Moore
>that wear from flipping the selector to safe
intoxicating
Dominic Ross
Fellow patrician. Laugh at WASRfags with me who own the inferior Romanian rifle
Alexander Gutierrez
>romanian rifles
Samuel Jackson
Looks like a norinco/polytech hunter galil conversion
Colton Howard
>gyppo rifles
kek
Ethan Flores
Indeed
James Cooper
Why have that surefire on a quick disconnect mount if you can’t use it without the pressure switch? You know they make end caps with both a pressure switch cable port and a push button, right?
Josiah Cooper
Cause the QD isn't so I can use it as a hand light?
Aiden Russell
Then why bother having it on a quick disconnect mount if you’re not going to take it off?
Angel Wright
>saw an NPAP for $499 at local pawn shop
Just got a job so hopefully I can snag it soon. I had one back in like 2014 but I didn't like it.
Mason Miller
Cause I do take it off
Just not for that reason
Michael Adams
>rifles
Carson Perez
>STILL not bf4 s12k clones
At this rate I'm gonna be done before you
Michael Butler
Im really fuckin trying bruh. The guy at evlutionz (Anthony I think?) got in a wreck last month so now its gonna take even longer
Adrian Morgan
Yeah, they're great aren't they.
Asher Barnes
wood furniture or rails and plastic
Landon Ross
>all arsenals gone everywhere except some pistols at buds
Fuck me
Nicholas Thomas
it’ll stay that way for years to come. they’re not that great anyways.
Connor Martin
Guess you’ll just have to start buying American made
Charles Perez
Recommend me a good ak.
Hunter Price
Psak gf3
Justin Stewart
The dude looks like such a fat smooth brain
Ryan Flores
Ian Richardson
just get a wasr, no american crap, no saiga, no kits, no yugo, just get a wasr.
Lucas Hughes
Anyone here try the PUFGUN mags? both the 30 rd AKM mags and the 60 rd 5.45 mags are interesting me right now
Brayden Kelly
I thought century was trash.
James Wood
Century is trash but Wasr is fine if its not one of the ones they butchered
Sebastian Gray
They are pretty much tapco tier
Cooper Myers
So reliable but not durable?
Bentley Carter
Fuck off AKG and last posting me
Anyways
So in my wasr eplaced the Shepard's crook with the retaining plate, but now the two pins feel losser then the should be. Its installed correctly
Not sure they will fall out just by normal handling but I'm concerned that firing will cause the gun to fly apart now. What do?
Hudson Gomez
If you actually installed it correctly, then the pins literally cannot move.
My guess is you’re just retarded.
Michael Gomez
Converted saiga 7.62
Leo Kelly
He said a good ak retard
Zachary Ortiz
>pins feel losser then the should be. Its installed correctly
nope
Chase Rodriguez
Please rate my vz
Andrew Wilson
Not an ak/10
Alexander Lopez

Alexander Reyes

Cameron Adams
Just bought this style of side folder for my MAK. I'm determined to make it more modern and get rid of the bumhole stock.
Jacob Green
>Converted

>stock gas tube
>no threaded fsb
wdhmbt
Wyatt Flores
Partially converted*
Gabriel Roberts
>no good aks
Deffine good desu like what do you mean? Mine work great
Lucas Rodriguez
I was just mouthing off, they can kill people at 300 yards. they all just seem to have finish problems, canting, weird gas tube issues, kinda shitty cartridge choices, and meh ergos. even the $1400 ones. all this shit would be unacceptable at modern prices for other rifles. these are designed to let conscripts protect tanks moving into West Germany from AT infantry in a 200 yard radius, but we ask much more than that from them and get pissed when it doesn’t happen
