How much 7.62x39 is enough?
>>64573855If you're shooting even somewhat regularly, it's never enough.>So, n+1.
>>64573855At least 20K rounds if you shoot regularly. Less if you don't.
>>64573855Whatever amount you shoot in total every year(don't lie to yourself on this) plus 1 or 2 1000rd cases as a buffer.
I have about 200 rounds :(
I feel like 2020 was yesterday bros
How likely is it that I'll be accused of being a leftist if I buy an AK? I'm not one and I don't want to get shit for it at the range.
>>64575091Did you just watch the recent Jim Fuller interview/podcast or something? At one point he talked about how boomers would give people shit back in the 80s for bringing AKs to the range. Nobody cares now. Even if they did, boomers have proven themselves to be the one of the most incompetent generations with firearms in general, so who cares, fuck them. Also, I'd bet the average commie has an AR.
>>64575091Commies can't afford good AKs anymore, so unless you shoot US made shit, you're fine. Besides, the AK has killed more communists than any other weapon.
>>64575444Nice digits. Kinda wish the ribbed top cover had taken hold. It's very aesthetic.
One of my PodArms 5.56 followers took a big dookie in a Tula plum mag and the broken pieces tried chambering themselves. Doesn't even matter because it still works kek

>>64575091Unlikely. AK doesn't have the political weight/symbolism that it once did it terms of revolution. I've brought AKs to range tons of times and no has bothered me about it. At this point, the gun is an ideologically neutral symbol. You see it everywhere from extreme left wing and right wing groups. If anything, these days most countries producing AKs are socially and (often) economically conservative.>>64575127>Also, I'd bet the average commie has an ARThis has also been my observation. Commies often live in poverty and are low IQ/mentally impaired (unironically) enough to promote the ideology that keeps them in poverty, so this shouldn't be a big surprise. Radicals and ATIs can be had for <$450, where as the low end of AK price range is about $750, plus x39 is more expensive per round, be it 7.62 or 5.45.
took a pic with my wasr10/63 with my newly acquired aks 74 that I picked up on Monday, how's the telaammo situation? I know early imports were corrosive, but what about newer batches? saw that one video that his new batch was good

What's your guys favorite pouch/placard/chestrig for AK mags?
>>64576732They didn't put the hole in the side folder button because it was modeled off an airsoft gun.
>>64577167SOE AK/M4 micro rig personally.
Anyone know anything about the Sotac Klesch lights? I've seen a Sotac ZenitCo Klesch-2P floating around and I'm really wanting one of those with the gooseneck mount for a future build. I think the under barrel mount looks neat. I know their Perst-4 clones are decent if potted but what about the flashlights? Part of me is kinda like "Well, it's a flashlight what could really go wrong?" Should I just attempt to find an authentic ZenitCo light and mount? I know its already pretty crazy to find ZenitCo stuff like that and the shipping itself it a big risk if its already not in the USA, which is partly why I'm willing to entertain a clone for something like this. Is it even worth it? Are there any recommended alternatives?
>>64575091>actually caring what other people think
>>64578588dont waste your money hoss, the ebay china clones are almost a 1-1 clone of zenitcope
Zastava has secured an exemption on their end to export civilian guns. Prices set to rise still because of state side shenanigans. But at least they're coming back in again.
>>64578952That's really good news. Sad about the price, but I do think the modern Zastavas are really nice, maybe as good as the old Veprs.
>>64578952I was surprised to see that they announced this today, I was just thinking about it. Though, with Zastava being so large for the US AK market, why have they not capitalized on it by producing more interesting stuff? I would Buy an M82 and especially an M84.
>>64573822What's the best quad stack mag?
>>64578924Thanks. I may consider that. Yeah, seems like the pricing for legitimate items is more of just based on the company itself and the scarcity in the USA market because honestly it's not even worth it. Now the only trouble is finding a clone dealer for that specific item stateside to avoid tariffs.
>>64578995M82 has a good chance of soon(tm). We'll see how shot goes.But every new non AK would require them to set up entire new lines and methods at their IL facility for conversation for probably very little demand. All the other non AKs they bring in don't require any work.Handguns just come in.M91 and M93 both meet sporting import requirements and don't need any modifications.The rest of their line up is AKs.All the rifles use the same jigs for conversation, or are ak pistols and don't need to be converted.
>>64579193Man I fucked up "conversion" multiple times. I can smell the toast.
>>64579193I just want some sort of PKM variant, Kits are unobtainable these days and fully built out ones are extremely expensive. There should be more of a market for belt-feds with FRTs being made so easy to obtain.
I spent way too much time on this.
>>64578588>>64578924>almost a 1-1 clone>that cheap-ass coax button connectorAbsolutely disgusting, neck yourself right now. >>64579014They're all shit. Pufgun claimed to have solved the follower tilt problem of the 6L31, but was demonstrated to do exactly the same AND their transparent polymer is brittle. Stich Profi has proper materials, but IDK if their stab at multi-part follower is any better than the others. Range toys, the lot of them.

>>64577204I think I'm wrong, but doesn't zenitco stocks fold on its own without using the built-in side folder mechanism? Similar to what JMAC folders use?
>>64579589What was wrong with this one?I like your grid posts, wish I had enough to warrant that.
>>64578993>maybe as good as the old Veprs.Not even close, and they look ugly with their proprietary furniture.
>>64579924For the first row, would it not be ak74m?
>>64580203M is with folding solid stock. That has unfolding stock.
>>64579924Wrong on the first rifle, it's not an AIMS, it's a pm md. 90, or just their Pm 63 (AKM) with a side folding stock added because those can be added to any fixed stock trunnion.4th rifle is not a chinese type 56, it's hungarian AK63D. Didn't look past the first line
>>64580149Not them, but maybe you should try not posting underage anime girls. Then maybe you could have a leg to stand on when you tell other people how to live.
>>64580298>4th rifle is not a chinese type 56, it's hungarian AK63DBut it has the Chink rivet pattern?
>>64575091How often do people with guns accuse other people with guns of being extremists where you live? I'm willing to wager it doesn't happen often. More than likely, any who would get pissed at you for having an AK would also get pissed at you for owning an AR. I
>>64575013Better than zero.
If money is no object and I want one good AK, should I buy Russian, or are the Bulgarian SLR series as good? There's an SLR107CR that I have my eye on for $2400 (less than SGL21s are going for these days).https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1138480763
>>64580399hell no it isn't "just as good." What does "one good AK" even mean? Do you want an original collector's piece? Arsenal isn't it. Money no object, go get a transferable machine gun in 7.62x39. That is the pinnacle of AKs.
>>64580399If money is no object, I would buy a nice russian parts kit and have it built by the best gunsmith I could find.
>>64580408*5.45x39
>>64580408I'm just saying that I'm willing to spend a few grand on a really nice AK that I plan to actually shoot, no collecting. So SLRs aren't as good as SGLs? What are the differences in quality?
>>64580305kys normie niggerfaggot
>>64580420they're both good
>>64580178Added some, modified some, was time for an updated pic. Will hopefully be updating the new grid image once $0 tax stamps go into effect.
>>64576549Atlantic firearms is running a sale for 1500 rounds of 5.45 for around 45cpr. Im considering finally picking up aks-74 as well, seems like now would be the time. Personally I would assume corrosive and just clean your damn guns. corrosive isn't that bad just flush the barrel.
>>64577204probably, but he could have built or bought a homebuilt krink on an ak74 receiver kit
>>64580420>I'm willing to spend a few grand on a really nice AK that I plan to actually shoot, no collecting.Don't spend more than $2k on an AK if you don't care about collecting.
Does anyone one have any of these kind of "mag bags" they could measure for me?
>>64582276lay it down on a piece of paper and measure
>>64582288I know how big mags are, but the bags are obviously larger. I'm already leaning towards 4x10 for 30s and 4x14 for 40s but I was hoping for some confirmation before I buy.
>>64579589can i get the uhhhh number 16 with the extra cosmoline
Does /akg/ like zenitco'd or wood with dong more ?
>>64583272woodif i see a fully donked zenit ak i immediately assume its airsoft
>>64583310What about fiddy fiddy?
>>64583272Trick question
>>64580234omg, for the longest time I thought M stood for modernized variant of the 74.
>>64583272Hear me out.... a PT5 stock , and a dong. Yeah??? Yeah??????
>>64583548Anyone know the going rate on a pt5 right now?
>>64583563yeah i see them go for a downpayment on a hyundai elantra N
>>64583580Think I might sell mine and just put a woody back on. They're cool but fully decked made it way heavier than my others
Why did they abruptly raise the price of these almost 400$
>>64583547It is. Modernized with a side rail and a folding solid stock.>AK74solid stock>AKS74folding skeleton stock>AK74N74 with side rail>AK74Mall above in one rifle
>>64583604I think the tariffs took effect.
You all itt are so gay. Post AKs
Almost 100 and like 5 AKs
>>64583855>basic and fugly
>>64583689ahh, so the AKM (762x49) is the exception that is also modernized but not folding.
>>64583888
>>64583902Well MPiKMS-72 is AKM that is folding, but with AKM reciever.
>>64583930very base. Nice rifle

>>64583855Is that an SGL31-94?
>>64584173>fresh out the box vanilla AKs >calls others reddit Do not reply to me anymore. You are filtered
>>64573822Am I retarded for sitting on 1300 rounds of Tulammo and "cheapest ammo LLC (made in Russia)" the last 5 years and trading like half of it for a Tisas 2011?I only shoot 9/556 for the most part. Can't find any line on Russian ammo, it must be rare, but I'm valuing it at 0.50c/rd. I know it'll appreciate but I also don't want to be a retard holding ammo when the gun will also appreciate
>>64583855>>64583865
>>64583604because that's not the DIY model that you must be thinking about. Also, that's Atlantic Firearms, so that's a red flag for someone looking for good deals
>>64584395Tula? I still find it in local gun stores and buy it for shooting as fun range ammo because it's shitty inconsistent ammo. I don't think there's any reason to hold on to 1300 rounds of Tula as an "investment" I doubt anyone will want it because it's been banned for a while now and nobody really cares because it's shit
>>64580171You're wrong
>>64584006>unconverted saigaLmao! Lol, even
>>64579593you sound like a bitch ass nigga my nigga. spend money on retard russian shit when china nigga makes it just as good. fuck around and play games wit me nigga i dare you
>>64585504does it even feed well
>>64585550Unlikely. Quadstacks are notoriously jammy.
>>64585591But Suomi quads worked well. Is it because of the tapered x39 ammo causes problems and 9 para is straight case?
I’m considering getting an AK-104 clone and can’t decide trying to get a parts kit made from AKfiles or just buy a KUSA one
>>64584338rifle is fine
>>64577933I'll give them a look, thanks.
Why can’t I have one?
