Excellent OP image. You ain't never gonna see a WBP in action like that.

Also... So most of us are familiar of the image with Tucker Carlson holding the East German AK in Iraq. I honestly forgot about it last thread... It came up when I was searching for images of Trijicon RX01s. Funny how the brain works, I've seen that picture of Tucker with the East German AK multiple times.. yet I never noticed the MP5k with the RX01, not the other MP5 with the RX01. Neat.

Does anyone have factory images or drawings of the stamping dies used for dust covers? I've always wondered how they actually did it. I assume it's a compound die?

>>64336129
Only pics of Kalashnikov factories I've ever come across are usually from the assembly floor/building not the machineroom.
Closest I could think of is this mandrel from an Armorers Set.

Making progress on the three position AK FRT. It is function checking correctly right now with moderate trigger finger pressure. Still gets hung up a bit at the rear of the action.

You mean the handful that were donated to 3rd line troops by AoA as a publicity stunt for a few pictures and to convince retard American consumers that they're real guns? Yeah those don't count lol.

I hate that you're making me defend a tripfag (only doing this because WBPniggers are even worse) but he regularly disavows PSA.

I bought a PSA in good faith knowing I was buying a piece of shit toy wall hanger noise maker, mainly as a way of cheaply testing out to see if I liked the short 5.56 102 style platform. I do like it, which is good to know, so now I can prioritize getting a more "real" 102 style gun. The PSA I bought did end up breaking, and it is back with them for warranty. When I get it back, I'm going to sell it. Simple as that.
I shit on WBP faggots because they bury their head in the sand like trannies and defend their purchase, saying it is a legit AK. I'm not saying you can't buy a WBP, and even "enjoy" it, so long as you're in good faith acknowledging that you're enjoying a toy wall hanger talisman, not enjoying a real gun.

WBPs have never had as many issues as PSAs. What broke? Firing pin?

Shitty bait and very tranny of you to just completely ignore all of the arguments and wall posts from the past week and offer up
>Not a real gun

>>64338617
>never had as many issues
You can't actually assert this quantitatively because the statistics on the matter are unclear, but we know that BOTH PSA and WBP have had far more issues than the vast majority of other AKs out there, and have been around for FAR less time, both of them.
>What broke
Typical issue that MANY have had with PSA 5.56 guns which is something works its way or wears its way out of spec (could be wear inside firing pin channel inside bolt, could be firing pin wear itself, hell could be headspace working out of spec), but gun started punching primers and bits of primer blow into the firing pin channel then the firing pin can't protrude correctly so you get light primer strikes and no ignition, until you disassemble bolt and remove bits of primer, only to have it happen again within 5-10 rounds of putting the gun back together. IE a piece of shit that would get you killed if you were actually using the gun to liberate some demonic tranny story time hour show.
>>
>>64338716
>You can't actually assert this quantitatively
youre right, except for PSA as they do seem to have way more issues than WBP. Even WBPs 5.56 and 5.45 AKs have seemed to have had less issues than PSA, Riley, Pioneer, etc.

>seem to have less issues
You're not controlling for total production quantity, and you're not looking at an exhaustive search of the reported failures. Like you might be under the "impression" that WBPs are more reliable than PSAs, and I might be under the impression that PSA's are more reliable than WBPs. That bottom line is both are shit compared to real guns and I would take a Zastava M90 any day if my life counted on it over either a WBP or a PSA 5.56 AK.

Highest quality AKM-pattern rifle. Namefag knows shit about WBP Fox rifles made for AoA and their development history vs other shit WBP makes. It literally buys PSA rifles like a broke wellfare nigger.

All this talk of 556 aks I've been thinking about getting into them. All my aks are 7.62x39 and have been eying the zastava zpap m90. I already have an opap and m92 and both have been flawless. Is it worth it? I'm fully invested in 7.62x39 but willing to shell out a couple grand for an m90 and a couple thousand rounds of 223, especially with the Russian import ammo ban not going away anytime soon if at all. Pic related, just refinished the handguard and swapped out the grip.
>>
>>64338758
>You're not controlling for total production quantity
to be fair i don't think you are either lol like man idk how many Rileys or PSAs are out there compared to WBPs but it seems as though not very many people had WBP issues until some 5.56 Jack issues came up (firing pin breaks or something) and now a couple broken bolts (who knows what that was about); a far cry from blown up AKs, Ski's Pioneer losing headspace in under 500 rounds, PSA AKs having poor rivets among other QC issues, etc.
>>
>>64339210
>thinking about getting into them
5.45 is the better caliber. Even WBP admits it. Theyre the most accurate, durable, and reliable Kalashnikovs ever made.
>>
>>64339210
I feel the same and am debating between an M90 and M85, obviously the barrel length is nice on the 90 but I feel like its just gonna be a fucking brick after I put some stuff on it

Personally I would just put the funds into an Arsenal 106, or find a Saiga that is converted or needs converting, or a SAR-3

>>64339418
>i don't think you are either
You're right, I'm not, but I'm also not making any quantitative claims about WBP vs PSA vs IO Inc vs Riley, vs Pioneer etc failure rate. I'm just talking about manufacturing processes and metallurgy.
I will claim the failure rate for all these shit AKs is significantly higher though than what we hear of or see from real AK manufacturers, or real kit builds done by good builders.

Okay made some progress. Three position AK FRT seems to be working by hand. Every now and again in semi mode it goes FRT, but I'm hoping that with a little more wear this stops, and I think it has to do with how forceful the carrier goes to the rear.

https://streamable.com/ccgtvh

I did NOT use the three position trigger jig that is floating around that has like two distinct ramp sections. I just used the standard 2 position FRT SS trigger jig, and kept cutting, removing more material from the trigger bar to decreased the magnitude/amplitude of the forced reset.

Keyed OP, Yugo thread.

On a side note someone mentioned in a previous thread was talking about corrosive ammo. I’m starting to think that corrosive ammo is a boomer myth. I’ve shot around 2000 rounds of 7N6 through my PSAK-74 and only cleaned it twice. Still no signs of rusting even after monsoon season. Okay, yeah maybe after 40+ years the bore will be rusted out but by that time someone in America will ether be making new ones/all guns will be banned/the country will be Balkanized and we’ll be able to buy real Russian ones from street vendors 1990s Bosnia style.

I've known for a hot minute. There is a reason why so many of the surplus barrels were dead.
>previous claimed he'd never use or own an AK that isn't chrome lined
Source? Where did I say that? I've had several had several AKs that weren't chrome lined, and they're far from my first pick, and I don't consider them real guns.

Gunbroker, and expect to over pay, even for the cheaper fixed stock model (KR-103FT). Can I ask why KUSA? Why now?
