>>62019356>Why are ak people so divided and inconsistent about what rifles are good?Because to like the AK inherently requires the mind of a contrarian>Why won't they admit the rifle is obsolete to begin with?Most of them do from what I've seen. Most AKfags are gonna tell you to get an AR if you want to be le oper8tor, but ARs aren't as cool
>>62019356my brother it's a stamped steel, gas piston operated, automatic rifle. it will never be obsolete until we go to energy weapons.
>>62019404>it's obsolescent
>>62019356Obsolete rifles? Wow what a horrible thing to own. Can you provide a list of obsolete rifles so I will never make the deadly mistake of owning one? Thanks.
>>62019382>Most of them do from what I've seen. Most AKfags are gonna tell you to get an AR if you want to be le oper8tor, but ARs aren't as coolBeing able to drag and drop anything you want on it and more readily available ammo is pretty cool.
>>62019404Something tells me you think bolt actions and muzzle loaders aren't obsolete.
>>62018571KR-104 or Draco are probably better than PSA if you want a 12.5” 7.62x39 AK.
>>62018571Right now is actually a great time to do a Form 1. I efiled before going on a long trip expecting it to take the whole month at least and I got approved in less than a full week.
The Word Obsolete means" no longer produced or used; out of date "If a thing is still Produced and made - its not obsolete.Please read a fuckin Book.
Everyone else get their chest rigs from moka?
>>62019356What exactly makes a rifle obsolete? You know the AR-15 was designed in the 50s right? Is that obsolete too?
>>62020616Looks like something straight out of a pride rally in san francisco.
>>62019441Your obsolete bolt action, xir>>62019356>NO, EVERYONE MUST BE A HIVE MIND, NO PERSONAL OPINIONS ALLOWED
>>62019441Hey can you please answer my question >>62019422 thanks
>>62019222
>>62019441Bolt actions aren't obsolete, snipers use them
>>62020646When I wear it with no shirt, yea
>>62019356>>62019382Being le oper8or is gay anyway. For a civilian reliability is king, and the AK is more reliable. The "obsolete" design is part and parcel with that. Older design, lower tolerances, more reliable.At some point the only "improvements" you can make to a design is to cut corners for weight, with tradeoffs that don't pan out in the long term.
>>62020864And hunters use muzzle loaders. It doesn't make them not obsolete. Especially if you're using the military as a standard.
>>62020892>Older design, lower tolerances, more reliable.He thinks lower tolerances is a good thing. He'll then tell you how important headspace is on aks. I also fully expect you to tell me next that revolvers are more reliable than semi autos, and muzzle loaders are king.
>>62020892>Older design, lower tolerances, more reliable.Why do you have an ak then? A slap gun would be best using that logic.
>>62020573>if a thing is still Produced and made - its not obsoleteWhere is your muzzle loader?
Even a shit ar is more reliable than an ak. https://youtu.be/27R5bKu5Myo?feature=shared
>>62020919>It's better to moderate your diet so you don't get overweight>Why do you eat food at all then? Haha checkmate
>>62021039Again: a colt single action army is better than say, a glock 17
>>62021095If you're admitting to gradations at all you're giving up on your prior "point" still. The AK is at the sweet spot, deal with it.
>>62021162A colt saa is only a small step below a glock 17?
>>62020453Would you say it's worth it? I have the option to get a regular 16" KUSA 103 at an LGS as well. I recall /AKG/ not being too hot on KUSA, but their 103 seems pretty solid by most accounts.
>>62020830Still looks like ass lmao
>>62020957>DI AR>”reliable”Just wait till he gets water in the gas tube…>>62020906Honestly, the big thing I’ve noticed and no one fucking talks about this (probably because nu-/k/ doesn’t own or shoot guns with any regularity) is parts breakage. I own over a dozen ARs and it seems like I’m constantly having to replace stuff.>Firing pins break>Gas rings worn>Gas tube cracked>Charging handle latch busts/pin shears off>Gas key dented >Bolt crack / sheered>Extractors sheering off >Caming pin wearing down the receiver >Receiver extension crackingThere are all things I’ve personally had to replace on my ARs. I’ve never seen that kinda parts breakage on my AKs and I shoot them just as much. In comparison I’ve only ever had to replace a busted old shitty tapco trigger, a defective recoil spring and a single bolt cuz the extractor busted and figured it was a good time to just replace the bolt as well.
>>62021324How are you spending tens of thousands of dollars shooting 12 + ARs and God knows how many AKs enough to wear out the small parts? Do you own 12+ 300 dollar ARs or something??
>>62021324Lol https://youtu.be/0MA1IFKwdAQ?feature=shared
>>62021324>hurrrdurrr it is a century that's why it blew up!I remember when I was a coping ak trog. https://youtu.be/4aIP4yZOcWU?feature=shared
>>62021354>he doesn't remember the filthy 14 as he called someone else "new"https://www.ar15.com/forums/industry/Filthy_14_is_now_over_40_000_rounds/138-196990/
>>62021398I didn't say anything about anyone being new in my post.
>is parts breakage.When an ar breaks, it is cheap and easy to fix. When an ak breaks, it's fucked until you can find someone to work on it.
>>62021430The AK is like the Toyota Tundra of guns.The AR is like the Ford F150 of guns.
>>62021373Try shooting it more than once
>>62021430>When an ak breaks, it's fucked until you can find someone to work on it.How often do AKs break? There are 50+ year old Chinese AKs still being run by African niggers. Can you say the same about ARs?
>>62021354Yes I do. And no, most of my shit is Colt and FN. The poorfag shit like BCM and PSA breaks constantly like you’d expect. Never had any issues with CMMG surprisingly and they’re my new go-to over Colt. Honestly fuck Colt, their new shit is trash with PSA-tier QC for 6x the price. >>62021430>Find someone to fix it.I guess you also pay someone to change your oil and brakes too? If you can’t weld and do a little metal work with power tools you’re not a real man.
>>62021510That one guy has a barrel mount for his laser...I'm surprised the pros do it that way
>>62021537It's a training photo, he also has a blank fire adaptor on
>>62021537Mounting lasers directly to the barrel is how they did it in the nineties. Obviously not perfect but for an infantry rifle it’s probably good enough.
>>62019222where do you guys browse pics for inspiration
>>62021472There are poor rice niggers with them in places like the Philippines. Or does that not count?
>>62021649I don't think pinos are using AKs.
>>62021510>I guess you also pay someone to change your oil and brakes too? If you can’t weld and do a little metal work with power tools you’re not a real man.It depends. I don't have a 20ton press, or headspace gauges, or spare scrap metal laying around to go full fallout to fix my ak. On an ar if anything breaks I just drop in a new part and carry on.
>>62021669Exactly. they're still walking around with original m16s in some of those jungles.
>>62021430>>62021510>>62021680More importantly, this isn't even true. You can swap out parts on an AK roughly as easily as on an AR. The only thing that's different is the parts availability and that's just because ARs are more popular.
>>62021620I just save random pic I like while browsing google and post them here.
>>62021697>You can swap out parts on an AK roughly as easilyI can change the barrel with a punch set and a wrench, or change my caliber just by popping 2 pins like on an ar? Or actually supress my ak effectively without having to get a kns piston?
Unpopular but TRUE opinion: All AKs are all basically the same regardless of manufacturer. Quality may vary but it literally doesn’t mater. The only thing that differs is the price tag. Arsenal fags and preban collectors will cope because they spent 4k on a gun that is literally the same as a WASR or PSA.
>>62021723>or change my caliber just by popping 2 pins like on an ar?Which AR do you do this with? IIRC only the MDRX does that in anything close to a quick timeframe. How often are you changing barrels or calibers in the field anyway? Not sure why it's valuable for that to happen slightly more quickly
>>62021723>I can change the barrel with a punch set and a wrenchNot something you can do in the field with an AR retard. >Or change my caliber just by popping 2 pins like on an ar? Again not something you’re doing in the field. > Or actually supress my ak effectively without having to get a kns piston?Yes you can.
>>62021723>>62021764Well and I guess I should clarify; I meant just that you can easily repair an AK by dropping in new parts at home, so it's not that different from an AR that way. I'm not sure what this claim was that if you lose a part that it requires a trip to the gunsmith.
>>62021764>>62021764You can't change uppers? And what do you mean by "in the field?" You walking to your shooting bench from your car isn't a field environment. Even if it was, guys in the middle east carried multiple weapon systems. You can carry an extra upper, you green, delta, ranger, recon, seal.
>>62021820But you need a different magwell. That means a different lower too right? The buffer tube wouldn't work the exact same either I would expect.Again this is the MDRX's entire selling point so how on Earth is that a selling point for their system if any basic AR can do it? I think you're making shit up.
>>62021759>quality doesn’t matterNew poorfag cope just dropped
>>62022078On AKs? It doesn’t. They are literally designed to be cheep mass-produced lead throwers. Even the best AKs can’t hold a candle to a basic bitch BMC AR.
>>62021759>preban collectorsdon't you mean post-ban?
>>62019356what>>62019382 said>Because to like the AK inherently requires the mind of a contrarianThats why there are people in these threads that shit their pants so easily over nothing
>>62021759quality doesn't matter until it breaks and you don't have a rifle anymore. retard
>>62021620Unironically conflict journalism accounts on twitter or instagram that specialize in small arms>>62021430you don't know anything about AK's if you think thats how it works
Why does Klayco look like he only drinks 100% pure söy.
>>62022208He is inbred, additionally.
>>62021430>When an AK part breaksYou mean IF an AK part breaks.
>>62021799I'm not that anon but there are things that you can't easily do with an AK and its all related to the front trunnion or barrel.Everything else is easy. The barrel populated parts are not easy to replace.If your front trunnion breaks you're fucked but its not as if you'd be better off with an AR because the equivalent would be the upper receiver exploding. I have no idea how anyone would break a gasblock. of all the things on an AK thats the thing I'd least expect to break. Sure you could bugger up your front sight but theres wings to protect the sight.
Should I rent a high end escort for a few hours or use that money buy another 1k rounds of ammo?
>>62022304Ammo, just hit on the Starbucks barista a few times then ask her out. She'll give it up first date.
>>62022315You don’t pay escorts to sleep with you. You pay escorts to leave after sex. Anyway, you’re probably right. I should go for the ammo. Not sure how long PSA will have that Tula in stock.
What is the best optic to run on an AK (7.62x39)?
>>62022528PGO-7
>>62022304>>62022315>>62022343The essence of /akg/
>>62019356Bows and arrows are also obsolete, but there is an obvious difference in quality between manufacturers. Are you that dumb that you can't understand something as simple as this?
>>62022088>They are literally designed to be cheep mass-produced lead throwers.This is every military firearm in existence lmao>Even the best AKs can’t hold a candle to a basic bitch BMC AR.So go back to /arg/ with the other trannies then. Are ARfudds all so aggressively stupid because of brain damage caused by lead poisoning from gas blowback? Invest in a gas-buster charging handle before your symptoms get any worse.
>>62021697Why lie like this?>>62021510>poorfag shit like BCMBCM is perfectly fine
Another thread ruined after the retards fall for the AR bait
>>62023385>Leopard print cheek rest
>>62021285Iirc kusa had a subcontractor finish a batch of rifles and the subcontractor put shotgun safeties in rifles causing issues and had difficulties sourcing decent barrels because dembts. Kusa is possibly going tits up but rumor round the akfiles campfire is that they have new management and in 2 quarters (just memeing, not a real timeframe) will come back. Kusa uses better parts than psa, and unlike psa, actually make a 100 series ak. Arms of America also has a Wbp "krink at home" variant short ak with better brace than the piece of shit the krink is equipped with.
>>62021285>>62024053Alsp to answere you, I have copped a kr103sfs, and have yet to put substantial rounds through it, but rifle seems good to go and most people who bought them like them (and didn't have as many issues as psa buyers, fyi).
>>62021859For most calibers, no you don't
I missed you /akg/
>>62023841you say that as if are have ever been any "non"-ruined" threads
>>62021859>Again this is the MDRX's entire selling point so how on Earth is that a selling point for their system if any basic AR can do it? I think you're making shit up.The same way the firearm industry sells you the same shit every year at shot show.
>>62021285id say kusa is very much worth it. i have a more recent 103 and its made correctly with the right safty and none of the rivets are over done.
>>62024879what suppressor is that? looking to suppress my kr103sfs
>>62024928its the dead air wolerine. youll need to get the insert and collar to fit the 103
>>62024952>youll need to get the insert and collar to fit the 103thanks bro
>>62025040np :) the part numers for those are WV209 and WV111

>>62021792The whole ordeal of "ak suppress le hard" can be blamed to the rifle itself SOMETIMES but most of the time is because manufacturers are fucking R E T A R D E D and design their cans for AR and then spout an AK thread pattern and boom they call it an AK can. The only manufacturer outside of russia who understood how you're supposed to do an AK can is Dead Air with their Wolverine and that's about it.
>>62025882>adjustable gas block/front sight post>Kns pistonWhat is the issue anyway?

>>62026362>AR advantages>drop-in super safeties and other opportunitiesKeep an eye out for the AK side of things from what I have heard.
>>62026362>parts and ammo availabilityDefine what you mean by "parts" though.
>>62026362The one thing AK fags always had over AR tards was cheap ammo, but Biden ruined that. There’s almost no point to buying steelcase 7.62x39 right now when brass is only about 5 cpr more.
>>62026969You buy steelcase to keep that rifle's expectations down. It's not about CPR, it's about keeping our way of life.
>>62026405Yeah some dude is working on a ss that works with fime triggers. Only downside is I think the life expectancy is about 200-300 (iirc take with big grain of salt) rounds which is kinda garbage desu.
>>62026676Theoretically, an ar15 is easier to replace parts because they can take mil spec drop in parts where as an ak's bolt carrier most likely has to be fit and head spaced to the reciever trunnions. However, I highly doubt any of my import ak's will need a replacement bolt/bcg within my lifetime.
>>620269697.62 is much more effective dealing with brush and thick foliage, which is what my particular environment is. I'd say it's still worth it compared to 556
>>62019222>he doesnt do his own mud test to disprove karl the cuckngmi
>>62019356>Why are ak people so divided and inconsistent about what rifles are good?Nobody wants to spend $2000+ dollars on a rifle that was $800 a decade ago and admit they were ripped off
>>62026676I mean how most every gun shop has the parts needed to keep an AR going. While the AK tends to be much more reliable, the parts are not as prevalent on this side of the pond so you'd have to go to a bigger gun shop than for AR parts, or just order them online.>>62026969Sure, but on the other hand they were much easier to find during the pandemic when everything else was fucked. And honestly, why not have an AR and an AK? It's America, you don't have to pick just one...
>>62021649>There are poor rice niggers with them in places like the Philippines. Or does that not count?>>62021696>Exactly. they're still walking around with original m16s in some of those jungles.Not nearly as many M16s as AKs, and most of the ARs are new production rifles given to them around 2014

>>62030152The Bretonnians finally got over their tech aversion and found that guns are fucking great. Just bless that baby with some watery tart's bathwater and bam, you're in business, my liege.
>>62025153good looking out homie, I appreciate it! btw did you have to install a KNS piston? I noticed my gas piston on my kr103 is pnw. I know I can just drill it out but wondering if you had to fuck with your bcg.Also, what kind of grip tape is that? I want some to fix a pressure switch to my vfg.
>>62021459i like this analogy

>>62031723Not a Trump fag but Obama and Biden are the reason AK economics have changed. First with Obama in 2014 because of Crimea and secondly with Biden in 2022 because of the Invasion. Don't know how else you would explain it

>>62031845Obama also shit my pants
>>62030755i havent installed a piston but i probably will eventually and i dont think you have to mess with the bolt, just drill out the rivet and put the new pin in that comes with the piston. and the tape is called goon tape . i put it on most of my grips

Got my Lucky shot wood stock in for my Saiga. Always wanted to convert it but now that it looks like we aren't ever getting them again I thought I should keep it in the sporter mode since you hardly see em unconverted.Got this 7.62 Saiga for 150 at a gun show like 10 to 15 years ago, slapped a bullet guide and trimmed the factory mag catch and have since ran a lot of regular AK rounds through it. Always wanted a Ironwood Designs set but the dude died, only other option is Lucky Shot, looks great to me but I wish the buttstock fit the receiver better. If I could do it again I'd order it unfinished and try my hand at fitting the buttstock better. Do have a question, my original work on the mag catch is uhhh questionable at best. What are some good aftermarket options for replacing the catch?
>>62033326>keep it in the sporter mode then keep the izhmash furniture you absolute fucking retardsomeone needs to take this gun from you and save it from its suffering
>>62031845obamna sold my ak
>>62033356I can always put the original plastic stock back on, i'm trying to avoid modding the rifle too much
>>62031845>>62033365Obama gave me his AKI got an AK so it was pretty nice but I still oppose it in principle
>>62031940How bad is having a short barrel like this for 7.62x39? It's pretty close to .300 Blackout right, so maybe it isn't that bad?AK scrub so I have no idea
>>62033248You're retarded AND gay
>>62033384i personaly dont think its bad at all. i believe its an 8.5 inch barrel so you could get 1990 ish to 2100 ish fps depending on ammo brand.
>>62032634why
>>62032634M77 is nice though, honestly even if you weren't all that into yugoshit, it's a good rifle. Unless it's a century imported one.
>>62033744m26 lemon grenade alleges 7m62x39 chambered ak's need atleast 10 inches of a barrell. Regular full size dracos (not the micro or mini) have about 12.25 inch barrels, and the zpap m92 has a 10 inch barrel length.
>>62033851>>62033895>>62032661Its not a bad gun but I don't like it. Mainly because its uncomfortable to shoot. The scope mount is too far rearward to use any of my scopes/mounts. The stock makes it hard to use the irons without smashing my face against it in such a way it breaks the seal on my headphones. I've just left the gas on setting 1 because its super overgassed. Didn't even do official full "break-in" on setting 2 because it was bruising cheek. I've shot larger rifles without an issue but the thing just wants to flip out of my shoulder. My PSL (The one that will eventually beat itself to death) is pretty comfortable to shoot. The trigger is the grittiest out of all my AK's, even my Lynx 12 has a better trigger. I'd put up with all of it had I not paid 1200$-ish. All of the issue could be fixed with more money but I don't like it enough to "fix" it
>>62035690I'll add that removing the slant does a lot to cut down the cheek slap. If you replace one part thats the one to replace. I have a repilca Tabuk FH that works pretty well
>>62035690sounds like it's a bad gun
>>62035705This. Slant brakes are ass and will give you a booboo if you don't throw it in the garbage where it belongs.
>>62036984On second thought, it might be lol

>>6203535310 inch is good but if im going with something short 8.5 is where i like to be.
>>62021859wait.. are you trying to say that literally any standard AR 15 lower CAN'T swap uppers into different calibers? Because if so, that's monumentally retarded.
Does anyone have a jig where I can send a flat to you and just pay to have it bent?
>>62035690NTA, but they also group like shit. I don't care what bob sled says.
>>62040996I'm pretty sure you can convert to 300 Blackout without much trouble, which is because that cartridge was specifically designed to not require much trouble to swap to. But clearly the rest is made up.
>>62041431Thats a no no. its a firearm at that point and you should just buy a finished receiver or 80%
>>62041431>>62042243I don't know why people bother with that anyway, they probably keep better records of people who buy kits and 80% lowers than people who buy firearms regularly.
>>62042880You're right. They're actually not legally allowed to track firearms but recently it was leaked that the ATF requisitioned a bunch of large credit card companies and other payment processors for data on items like>ammunition>firearms parts>VPN services>political books and other merchandise >assorted religious materials So they can't make a list of people that own firearms but they can absolutely (and have) made a list of everything else a firearm owner would buy. Nobody is gonna buy ak magazines unless they own an AK so the ATF/FBI just tracks that and basically knows what you have. Not a massive leap in logic lmao. As for why people bother with flats? I don't know flats are a pain in the dick and easy to mess up and have look bad. On the other hand 80% with the rails already spot welded (just haven't had the holes drilled yet) are cool because if they came predrilled theres a good chance they wouldn't fit your kit. Ask me how I know
>>62042243Isn’t an 80% already bent though? My flat has zero holes.
>>62043039In that case it wouldn't be a firearm but like why'd you buy a flat dude? You can get the same thing for less hassle as a regular 80% Have it shipped right to your door
>>62040554Yes. But they heat treat and strengthen their bolts well, and they appear to be holding up better than any commercial American bolt thus far.

>>62043635I don’t care, I love my poorfag goyslop muttmerican AK74M clone. I love it so much I’m going to buy another one next paycheck and turn it into a wood stocked 74 clone once I find a nice surplus battle-work AKM stock set to slap on it.
>>62033326Can anyone follow up?
>>62033326>>62043792https://armsofamerica.com/ak-enhanced-trigger-guard-paddle-fb-radom-poland/This one is great. Doesn’t hurt your finger when you are reloading all day.
>>62043893Thanks, for retention of the pivot pin for the catch, does anyone sell a pin with a C clip to hold it in? I know most of these things want you to use a rivet and compress one side. Would rather avoid doing something like that since it's a real Russian rifle and I don't wanna smack it with a hammer
>>62043916What would you do without me babe https://www.apexgunparts.com/ak47-74-rivetless-mag-release-axis-and-eclip-stainless-new.html
>>62043928If you want a black one, for a few dollars more you can buy this entire kit, take the pin and c clamp out, and just save the mag release as a spare. This M&M mag release is not as good as the beryl one.

>>62043941I was just looking at that, that's what i'm gonna do.After I get these parts installed I wanna look into a scope mount for the optics side rail. Don't want it to go side mount to picatinny rail, wanna go side rail to scope rings. Don't want any picatinny rails on this rifle.
>>62043959Just get a POSP scope. It’ll look cooler. They make some that use the AKM side mount, make sure you don’t get a SVD sized side mount.
>>62043999What's the cost and are they good on real steel? I'm gonna shoot it and not just hang it on the wall
>>62044032varies on the whim of who's got em due to import bans on russian/belarusian import bans, great on real steel, but make sure of what kind of side rail you've got before you buy, there's 3 kinds of mounts for POSPs including the universal mount
>>62043607>>62043610 I got you.
>>62020646>>62020616Looks like bondage gear Mr.slave Jesus christ
>>62044122I will build a trash rifle with this some day.
>>62021759You’re right, unless it’s American made with inferior materials. Not sure why people dispute this, they are all designed fundamentally the same, regardless of country of origin. If you overpaid for a rifle with shiny finish that’s your problem. Also, nice optics OP.
>>62044535Truth. I only bought my kusa 103sfs because it was the only current production 100 series clone and kusa is still in company purgatory. After this, I plan on getting a wasr and some pioneers.
>>62044032Mine is loose. The tube that the occular end is housed within rotates a few mm

>>62045089Yes.
>>620418936.5 gren, 6.8spc, .350 legend, .450 bushmaster and a lot more. All possible just by swapping the upper on ANY standard AR 15 lower. Also.. amazing trolling.
>>62045738Number one, you're the first person in the thread to even bother naming a specific caliber that I could look up, so congrats, you're probably the only poster so far that wasn't desperately fumbling for a point to make. Number two, we're two or three huge jumps from what I was even talking about to start with. This guy>>62021430>>62021680tried to pretend that fixing an AK is impossible without being a gunsmith, which isn't true and something he made up to have something for an AR to be better at. Which when that fell apart somehow got spun into this argument about the AR being easier to fix because you can swap into all the boutique calibers you're mentioning. Which doesn't mean it's easier to fix if something breaks, it just means you can swap uppers. And fine, maybe it can do that, if you carry a separate entire upper, separate mags and separate ammo; but who cares? Why carry all that shit for mild improvements in performance when you could just pick a less boutique caliber the first time? I just don't see it as valuable at all, seems like barely disguised consumerism.
I love my 74u :D
>>62045328love this rifal
>>62046867Nice krink fren
>>62046867I should've bought one when they were 700€. now they are rarer than dragunovs ffs
>>62047049>now they are rarer than dragunovsHow fuckin bizarre, in the US Krinks are much more common than a Dragunov or any of its derivatives. They're still not common of course but by comparison they are.
>>62032160That fucking Polytech made in 2018.
>>62047065i guess they imported a lot more kits into the US back then. On a side note, building firearms from kits used to be a US thing only, but now it started happening here in the EU too. An italian gunsmith started building p90s with short barrels from US ps90 parts and receivers since FN couldn't be arsed to import the proper short barrel versions. Hilarious part is that the first few rifles are done, but we won't get any ammo for sale in our gunstores for at least this whole summer.
>>62047527nta, but I saw that. Best part about this is the passive aggressive meltdown some gunsmiths in the associations had from this whole thing because it immediately disproves the old as fuck fuddlore that a gunsmith in italy can't also be a manufacturer. They were simply mad that a random fatass with the 'tism for ar15s proved that most fudd gunsmith can at their best just cold blue some 12g barrels
>>62046075Upper and ammo mainly, if it fits the AR15 pattern, mags AR mags work, capacity will vary. But you're also not incorrect, broken bolt is a broken bolt don't care what upper you're running. Also, it basically is peak consumerism. one stop shop rifle platform type thing.

>>62047049I saw website selling bulgarian 5.56 "krink" kits for a little sub 5k and laughed. While psa may suck, but I would much rather buy their krink than pay that much of a boomer tax for a fucking parts kit. Lol. Probably will settle for either aoa wbp krink at home, zastava m95 or a psa krink for actual krink vibes.
>>62021510>>62021537>>62021597>>62021607That’s MILES gear they’re all wearing. You can see the sensor circles on their rigging. Blank adapter, laser tag laser, laser tag sensors.>>62021680>20ton press,20 ton? kek
>>62023097Brosef, WHAT does the other side of that receiver look like? How is that scope so low? What mount are you using?
>>6204911220 ton is overkill for 90% of builds but there are some kits that need more oomph than a 12. Tigger guard rivets get pretty close to maxing out my 12 ton.
Why do the options for Western chest rigs that can run AK mags fucking suck? Sure I've got the Chicom placard from Parashooter half off but it still wasn't worth it. It's a fucking Chicom. It's either pay $160 for an mid tier Lifchik in fancy colors from Apex or wait six weeks for Beez to build an slim Condor looking knock off AK chest rig that granted has much better quality. I already have an Smersh, but I want an fucking chest rig that I don't have to buy from Azerbaijan through Prapor's cousin.
>>62049180Are you going for a certain aesthetic or something? Surely you can find decent pouches and attach them to a molle rig or are you that retarded?
>>62049180the real problem is that your typical AK mag is a fucking quarter circle haha
awesome

>>62049887
>>62049887Father and I after my bday dinner today. Will convert m92 to underfolder soon, found a local guy who's done a few conversions and at a good price. Been procrastinating on that shit for like 3 years now lol
>>62049918Nice Beryl. Waiting on my next check to get one, hoping they don't sell out of the full package.
>>62050002Thanks, I got mine 2 years ago when aoa first started importing them again. Was annoying to track down all the furniture. That's a neat package they have now with all the furniture included already. I saw they also have the left side selector for sale, which I considered having shipped from Poland, but even now $65 for an inert switch got me having second thoughts lol
Is it fucked lads? Bought an M74 from some boomer on gunbroker for fucking $515. Plan is to get it rebuilt with an AK builder 5.56 AK-74 barrel. I'm trying to decide if I want to buy a Beryl bolt to replace the 74 bolt or if this is going to be fine. The one builder I asked and sent pics to said it's fine but that's just like their opinion man.
>>62050048Yeah I was considering getting it, but i'm not too sure I care much about it for the reason you mentioned. Especially not enough to pay the 100 extra to have it come pre-installed.
>>62050079Why did you buy without pics? Are you fucking retarded?
>>62050102Hey nigger, there were pics, they just conveniently left out the the back of the bolt lugs. I obviously got fucked but I got the rifle for cheaper than the cost of buying the rest of an AK-74 parts kit even sans a bolt.
>>62050136Nigger I would ask for a refund. You got scammed by a faggot boomer for 500 bucks for a fucking bolt. Lol. Unironically you're better off sending a psa to get tuned up by rifle dynamics or m26 lemon grenade. Lol
>>62050136>>62050143OpeRe read. I thought you spent 500 for the bolt. For the whole gun that ain't bad. Nevermind friendo. I am drunk and xtra tartded from getting off of work (and the alcohol).
>>62050143I didn't pay $500 for a bolt. I paid $500 for an AK-74 that I knew I'd have to get rebuilt anyway, effectively $500 for a parts kit sans bolt when AK-74 parts kits are easily $1k+ now.
>>62050136<same anon> Can't you just replace the bolt with another 74 one with a similar or same spec?
>>62050152That's the plan with the Beryl bolt since I'll be getting it rebarreled to 5.56. The whole point of this rifle is to have a beater 74 in but in 5.56 so I can actually shoot it and get ammo for it.
WOWIE this is the most active /akg/ has been in one day in a long time keep it up gentlemans. Looks like 5.56 is the key to keeping AKs alive
>>62048688>Side folding stock>90 degree gas block > 6P20 style break >Optics rail standard on all rifles >Smooth dust cover It’s totally a 74M/100 series WTF are you talking about?
>>62050159That would be really dope, will 5.56 run in 5.45 bolt though? Might just be better to have your builder get you both a barrel and matching bolt that way you don’t gotta worry about head-spacing issues.
>>62050366Not him but yeah it should. Plenty of examples you can find online where people build 5.56 AKs from 74 bulgy kits, using all original parts with the exception of the barrel.
Do we like MAKs here, or do I just have Chinese garbage?
>>62050079Looks fucked, at least your shitty 74 kit build only set you back $500. Mine also had grinded lugs, didn't see them on the picture, and cost $1400. Now the rifle isn't fuckin matching anymore but at least it won't explode. I got a NOS Bulgy 74 bolt from Mokas for 240. He's out now though.
>>62050465Wonder what Asuka would think of Chinese people
>>62050079Are you the same guy from a few threads ago or did two of you dumbasses make the same mistake?
>>62050481I can flip it to Rei lol. I live in Mass so we're pretty much stuck with MAKs lol
>>62050465Norincos are great, shame you can’t get them anymore.
>>62050486You can if you want to pay an arm and a leg. I had to change the furniture out on mine as it was some cheap plastic crap.
>>62050465Hell yeah brother
>>62050548my NIB Mak90 I had a spiker conversion done on.
>>62050548Damn, you got the cooler one. Mine was $1.9k, I didnt want to spend the extra on the bayonet version. XC Massachusetts sucks lol

>>62048774Those aren't defining characteristics of a 100 series rifle, anon. Are you being serious or is this bait?
>>62048774 meant to reply to >>62050345
>>62047527I heard Italian gun laws opened up a bit recently but what all has changed besides you can finally own 9x19?
Should i get PSA or wasr
>>62053212It's either>shit tier troll>functionally retardedthe answer is always going to be wasr
>>62053212Obviously you need the best of the best so get a Meridian Defense.
>>62052866kinda. when the european directive passed in 2015 some things improved, like the max number of guns you can own and magazines capacity, while some got worse (especially for ex fullauto milsurps that now are for the most part considered sporting guns instead of hunting)And in 2019 they also legalized 9x19 for handguns as previously it was legal only in long guns. Hilariously these implementations were done by the exiting left government. Salvini and the right who promised a shitload of things regarding guns maintained nothing as even the 9x19 was going to happen anyway as it was already planned to be legalized before they held office.

Hi. I want to buy to weapons based on the AK (technically the RPK). The Molot/Vepr-12 (shotgun) and the Molot/Vepr Hunter in 30-06. I know you can't buy them in the US because of sanctions, but I'm in Europe and I might get lucky.I investigated a bit. VEPR is a brand of MOLOT for weapons sold in the US. There is also some confusion with the MOLOT name (Molot the gun manufacturer and Molot the private company) that is clarified in this post. https://www.theakforum.net/threads/molot-vs-molot.325374/ i.e. The private company absorbed or bought the Molot factory.And now for the question. Are recent (i.e. made by the new Molot) Molot guns of good quality?Sorry for the long post, but if someone knows the answer, they will surely lurk here. Thanks in advance.
>>62055281And they haven't tightend up security?
>>62058097Not to my knowledge, no. They seem to either ignore it entirely or just say they fixed it without actually fixing it.
>>62049180I just bought the parashooter volk but haven't tried it out yet. Their lifchik from apex does seem better, but I wanted something small that I could easily throw in my range bag. What complaints do you have about it specifically?
According to akqualityenforcement on Instagram, Palmetto are going to start using the correct rivets and dimpling the trunnions to the receivers soon. Which is baffling that they weren’t already doing that.
>>62059928And according to Rob Ski on Youtube, everyone should include a pack of tactical Huggies baby wipes in his EDC.
>>62059928m26 lemon grenade mentioned this in a video not too long ago. nice to get some confirmation. I wonder if they will increase their prices on aks. Might be able to score some cheap, older psa AKs.
>>62059928palmetto state armory is going to wait as long as humanly possible to not make their AKs to soviet specs haha
>>62060107Next they should fix their metallurgy and not use butter for their trunnion metal
>>62060166or maybe learn how to cut picrailshttps://youtu.be/-ukob9PbzqY?si=f9U6gHR7NqZZSP3g
I never imagined this would be the best AK in /akg/. What has the world come to.
>>62061003>best ak in /akg/
>>62021759They hated Anon for telling the truth.
>>62061048I want to be wrong, but I think we both know I'm not.
>>62021759>all guitars are the same, whether it’s a $199 Walmart guitar or a $2,000 professional stage guitar. They both make the same sounds
>>62061931AKs are not guitars, they are kazoos. Slide whistles at best. Possibly a vuvuzela.
>>62062108Wrong, AKs are more like didgeridoos
>>62050048>I saw they also have the left side selector for sale, which I considered having shipped from Poland, but even now $65 for an inert switch got me having second thoughts lolIts not like you can just slap that bitch on there either. Guess how I know.
My only AK is a1995 PARS Maadi. How good or bad are these? I’ve read that they have softer receivers and the FCG pin holes will egg out.

LGS nearby has a Century Arms M70 AB2 underfolder on their website that caught my eye. Are these the same as Zastava M70's qualitywide/ worth it if I can haggle the price low enough? Or just a no go because it's Century and not a WASR?
Why isn't there a decent domestically available 5.56 AK with a 10-12" CHF CL barrel?Pioneer has a 5.56 AK I think with a 11.75" barrel, and then there is the PSA AK102, but both of these are of super questionable quality, and neither is a CHF CL barrel. How do I get a red dot on a Galil SAR kit build?Anyone know where to get a SAR 5.56 CHF CL or at least just chrome lined barrel?>>62023385Cool build overall IMO
>>62050345>Lacks bump rivet>Stock pin is 4.5mm and not the 5.5mm of the 100 series>AKM style bolt knob>Piston is an AKM or AK-74 type>Gas block and FSB are pinned and not pressed into placetbqh Anon, its more an AKS-74N than an AK-74M/AK-101 and that is fine. I honestly which they would just start calling it an AKS-74N or AK-74N depenind on the stock type and put a ribbed cover on it.
>>62064318Actually I just know, as a fact, it's superior to your AK.
Want to make folding shovel for 10/63. Does anyone sell just the folding mechanism? All I can find are mechanisms + stock. If I have to buy both fine, but id rather not. Have another ak for my dumb question.
