>>65305606Shame no one listened to the serbs when they told you Muslims are batshit crazy.
Since there's no more 8M3, Hornady Black SST or Barnaul HP?
>>65305695There's no more Barnaul HP either, since the Russian ban. So if you got a lead on Barnaul, I'd go with that over SST.As far as terminal ballistics, it's all the same imo.
>>65305615>serbs chimp out and bomb Croatian christians and Bosnian muslims alike>allow rich european psychopaths to hunt children in Sarajevo for sport>claim it's the muslims who are the problemI'm glad we bombed Belgrade. I'm glad we did it with depelered uranium rounds right next to schools. Bill Clinton is a hero for what he did over in Serbia.
>>65305764Is FMJ really the go-to with AKs? I know with ARs its that 77gr HP but I hear a lot about AKs and barrier penetration.
Super late but here are some crude dimensions for that anon who was considering a cope groza zastava.
>>65305615>Servs are the hekkin saviors of Europe that dindu nuffin.
Krebs Customs guy just died
>>65306782Something wrongI hold my headMarc Krebs goneA nigga dead
>>65306782He showed up to a local comp last year and honestly he wasn't looking good. Can't say I'm really surprised.
after years of having AKs, I have finally gotten a 7.62 drum mag
>>65306992I followed him on Instagram to watch all of his weird projects. He was always working on 3-4 crazy ideas at a time but you could tell he was struggling a bit. RIP Mr. Krebs
>>65307061What kind? Top loader or rear loader?
>>65305606>M76>M77>M92>M53>M24/47>M48I need me some more serb rifles. Waiting for my crypto to go up a little more. It did a 30x yesterday. I just need to wait a little for it to do a 4x then I can buy a house and new AK. Or I can be retarded and just buy the AK now.
>>65306782This sucks as getting old. I started to get into guns week before awb expired. Kits and customs were just starting off.>You get to see your parents die>You're old.>You start to see the awesome names die in the gun community >Your friends start to die>You remember you'll die soon too.
>>65305771>>65305980Look no gun Europeans love in that Muslim dick. Still complaining about the serbs being too mean to their Muslim friends while they're women get raped and their kids get turned into kabobs
>>65308102Who built the m53? All those Yugos and no M70 variant yet? Seems backwards, but opinions vary I guess.Post M53 pls.
>>65307061now ammo is too expensive for it to be practical kek.i basically only use 10 rounders now
>>65308176>ammo is too expensive>i basically only use 10 rounders
>>65308322yes
>>65308348
>>65308394i'm too lazy to work full time or get a better job
>>65308140Never seen a Serb simp that wasn't also a Serb. How do you feel about Russian cock by chance?
AK bros.... I don't feel so good.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KKnX6YCxcI
>>65308479this chivers guy sounds like a hack
>>65308161>Who built the m53?Me. I haven't finished it yet. Will be second mg42 once it's done. Saving up for a few parts and busy working on a Turkish Hotchkiss 1922 at moment.>All those Yugos and no M70 variant yet?Keep finding good deals on all the others and harder to find than a basic m70. I'll get to the m70 last probably. Looking at Yugo m91 or a ppk at moment. Ppk is just a big AK right?
>>65308102>M53Fucking based. I've got:>M70>M92>M90>M85>M77Buy a house first obviously.
>>65308681How do you like the m85 and m90? I'm looking at either of those and a m72
>>65308479Wait a minute what's 16 inch barrel makes AK inaccurate, and the AK was specifically designed to kill civilian. This is some fudd lore.
>>65308102how about you just buy a fucking house lmao
>>65308057korean rear loader
>>65309081My condolences lel. Make sure you wind it enough. More failures in rear loaders is caused by underwinding.
>>65309293haven't tried it yet but i've heard good things. Excited to try it in my WASR and particularly my 92.
>>65309077Yeah I will. Just need to not let my ADHD take over and yeet my bags early. Looking at AKs and other guns to send my focus elsewhere.
researching the psa krink and find picrel in a reddit thread (reddit gay i know) my question is whats the inspo for this drip? ive seen that paint job before on aks ive just never seen a source pic of this type of build in the wild
>>65309958rhodesia larp, light infantry painted their FAL's like pic related and now everyone who wants to dogwhistle their hatred of blacks uses that baby poop camo.
>>65309996I don't know how i didnt realize but yeah it is just baby poop pattern on an ak. I gotta say it does look good
Before Serbian keyboard warrior me takes over: is Riley Defense any good? my local gun shop has one that has both a detachable mag and regular pistol grip (they think it's a fixed mag but I was able to take it out) so I wanted to harvest the opportunity, but the only manufactures I know are good are WASR and Zastava, so I wanted to know if Riley is good or not.>>65305771>Bill Clinton is a heropicrel and the AWB of 1994.>>65305980Yeah because Krauts and every other European nation immediately started killing each other because of this. No other tensions existed, they heard some Austrian dude got killed by a Serbian dude and started fighting in France the next day.
>>65310076>is riley defense gooddid you try, oh idk, maybe ONE google search?
>>65310084The only good result says "maybe". The rest are from Reddit.
>>65308478I have but they're always one of the three following1. Serb2. Serb (diaspora)3. misguided American
>>65310076>is Riley Defense any goodNot enough data to counter the previously earned "abhorrent dogshit" reputationTheir kit build M77s are good, but that's because the receiver is milled and the only thing Americans are good at manufacturing anymore is milling parts and the rest of the gun is Zastava made (but the guns are from Cyprus).Their US made guns are 100% NOT made for proper usage, they're "billet machined from forgings" that are meant for know-nothing boomers to say "I gots me one of them commie AK-47s" and shoot one mag out of every 3-5 years.
>>65310076Yeah, it was cataylst for the war.
>>65308742>How do you like the m85 and m90? I'm looking at either of those and a m72Love it, but Iike my Beryl more. Yamahawarrior89 makes a better adjustable gas port. My excellent cond M72 from AoA is at the builder.>>65309315>Yeah I will. Just need to not let my ADHD take over and yeet my bags early. Looking at AKs and other guns to send my focus elsewhere.House beats shitcoins. SELL and buy real estate.>>65309996>everyone who wants to dogwhistle their hatred of blacks uses that baby poop camo.gigabased
>>65305502Hope the 5.56 pioneer is good. If they bring back the 5.56 underfolder I am definitely getting it.
>>65311231It won't be good, pioneer is grenade-tier trash
>>65311370It isn't 2008 boomer, not payin $3.5k+ for a used up 5.56 arsenal. https://youtu.be/0BVzBOu99FM
>>65311605I can never tell if you pioneer tards are serious or trolling. Don't say I didn't warn you when it inevitably blows up in your face.
>>65305606What is a good folding stock for a saiga? Triangle style
>>65312216Wood
What exactly is the AK-201? Just AK-74 with rails in 5.56?
>>65312916thought it was a girl leaning against a tree in the thumbnail
>>65313076i thought i may have been the only one
>>65310816>House beats shitcoins. SELL and buy real estate.Yeah. $10k USD out. Slowly selling the rest of this shitcoin in $15 trades from several wallets. Should have full clipped it, but didn't want to screw my friend. Friend ended up getting all pissy I started selling in small clips anyway
surplus M70AB2 gets here tomorrow, I will report back
>>65309958I just bought one in 5.45 to use as the beater and save my others. Arrived with a lot of metal shavings in the rear of the receiver. I put surplus wood handguards in and the lower handguard retainer is now loose, a few mm of wiggle room.Had one FTF in 100 rounds, was with Tela Ammo. This is my first short barreled 5.45 and the handguard got pretty toasty after like 20-40 rounds, also my only nitrided barrel 5.45.I’ll keep you boomers posted.
>>65313032Hope they get gen 2
>>65313434what are the 922r parts besides the nitride barrel?
Anyone get a russian kit from rapex or boomerfire? Website crashed and I couldn’t get shit
Am i retarded for buying a polack underfolder as my first gun?
>>65309958if ure able to, do a chefur customs krink and save yourself from horrid PSA QC and headspacing
>>65313612Nope.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/AIODB6-4TnU
>>65311836I am gonna blow a load on your wife's face at the estate sale. :)
>>65313749Who gives a fuck. 922r is for importers anyway, end users can do whatever they want with their property.
>>65313076>>65313085I'm not seeing it. It is sexy though.
>>65314544>Who gives a fuckI do, because those are unoriginal parts that I will have to replace with surplus. Are you retarded?
Are either the PSL or M91 worthwhile?
>get an unfired vepr 12>gonna have to break it in>get 25rd drum to make it quicker + more fun + it'll be useful for 3 gun + it's silly and I want it>none of the buckshot I have fitsOH THE MISERY
>>65316502Psl can beat itself to death depending on ammo. Not sure for m91
Got one of the barreled Tula kits. 1972, 4 matching parts.
>>65316554Are they nosediving coming from the carousel into the feed tower?
did syria or ukraine kill off all the krinks.
>>65317409>he was too fat and slow to get the krink kit from cf yesterdaylmao
>>65317380The ones that barely kinda fit do sometimes yeah but they also seem to kinda bulge out of the mag so I'm just not gonna bother trying to shoot that. The rest just straight up won't go in.Went down the road to a store to grab a box of Winchester to see if it fit and it fit perfect so I grabbed a few more. Really wish there was a good outdoor range nearby so I could just break it in with spicy birdshot instead but I wanna run it in a 3 gun competition on Saturday so gotta do it quick at the buck and slug-only indoor range right by work with a few mag dumps at paper.
>>65317488Yeah it related to the crimp. I can't remember if it's star crimp or rolled that is preferable, but even then not all crimp end up the same length.Sounds like Winchester works, so there's that. Keep trying other brands and whatever does feed through the drum will feed fine from factory mags. You do have other mags, right? Besides the 5 rounder it came with.
>>65317488>break it inUnnecessary as long as you use 3 dram and above loadings.
>>65317614I did get a couple pufgun mags and everything I have fits those and the factory mag just fine. Might get a couple of the steel CCS mags which really I probably should've done in the first place lol>>65317616I was kinda debating back and forth whether I really should bother but it shouldn't hurt to dump a few rounds through it, maybe not the full 100 like fuddlore recommends but at least each of my mags filled up. Plus I have to zero the optic anyway.
>>65318048>couple pufgun mags>Might get a couple of the steel CCS magsBoth ok choices. Don't have any CCS steelies, but I heard they sometimes need fitting. Plus they're kinda hefty.Factory Molots are the patrician choice though.>I was kinda debating back and forth whether I really should bother but it shouldn't hurt to dump a few rounds through it, maybe not the full 100 like fuddlore recommends but at least each of my mags filled upYeah, go shoot the thing. If it chokes on something, make a note of what it was.>I have to zero the opticDo not mount it over the ejection port at all. Doing so can cause malfunctions, mostly FTEs.Enjoy the Vepr, and gl at the match.
>>65313783>first gunsort of since underfolders genuinely suck
Is $700 for an M70 + 6 mags and a can of ammo a good deal for babby's first ak? If so, anything specific I should look out for on it or ask about?
>>65318425Yeah that's a good deal especially if the optic is included.
Which one, /akg/?
>>65318433Yeah it's everything pictured just didn't think the optic and sling were worth mentioning
>>65318425It even looks kinda tasteful
Found this while searching.https://stalker.fandom.com/wiki/AKM-74/2
>>65318467Bakelite erryday.>>65305606I hope I get outbid on a Saiga here in the next couple of hours. I thought I wanted one, but I really don't feel like doing/paying for the whole conversion process the more I think about it.
>>65312216I think sovietstocks still sells the 4.5mm triangle folder kits. Otherwise a Russian 5.5mm triangle and the iglim trunnion from Atlantic. The bolt on ones are faggot shit
What folder is this exactly? 5.5mm pin but doesn't lock AKS-74 style
>>65318796It is for the PP-19/Saiga 9
>>65318819Thanks, guess I need one now
Is this okay for a first AK?https://atlanticfirearms.com/pioneer-arms-ak47-forged-rifle
>>65318866Get a 5.56 AK as your first AK. I know a bunch of people are gonna call me a faggot. But 7.62x39 is no longer cheap. 5.56 is more affordable and since you are probably coming over from an AR you already have ammo sitting around.
>>65318866>Pioneer ArmsNo
>>65318879Ehh neither are really that cheap. 5.56 is only like 10 cpr cheaper than 7.62x39 right now.
>>65318879>556 AK as firstNo. 556 AKs are expensive and the mags aren’t interchangeable. 556 AKs struggle with feeding and reliability issues because the AK was not designed to run a nonstandard round. 7.62/5.45 or just get an AR15.
>>65318167Underfolders are excellent, you are simply homosexual
>>65318911>556 AKs are expensive and the mags aren’t interchangeable.Will this meme finally die? The Bulgarian commercial mags have worked in basically every 5.56 I have seen. >556 AKs struggle with feeding and reliability issues because the AK was not designed to run a nonstandard roundBeryl and Galil are a thing and, in the case of the Galil, pre-dates the AK-74.>>65318904Those cents add up if you shoot a lot.
>>65318879I wouldn't get a .223 AK because they're all over the placeI have a .223 Vz. 58 which has been surprisingly reliable, that is to say totally so far
>>65318932Bulgy comm mags don’t work in an M90, M85, 556 Norincos and Saigas. Galil is a jewish abomination, not an AK. Beryl is the only acceptable 556 AK but even they suffer from common 556 AK problems like FTE and firing pins breaking prematurely. Just get an AR.
>>65319077Before moving to Israel the guy who designed the rifle had Balashnikov as a last name. That is like some Luigi/Waluigi shit.
>>65319201That is incredible. I’ve heard Galils are good but they just make me cringe, probably never own one.
Bulgarian 74 built on a nodak nds 2 for 850. Should I? My concern besides ammo, is it's potentially a century built rifle. The actual Bulgarian parts seemed to match. Barrel is a US stainless steel barrel. I want it just to have a 74 but I'm also considering a zastava for like a few hundred more.
>>65319638Getting into 5.45 in the current year is kinda stupid but that's on you if it's filling a perceived hole in your collection.
Considering getting an m90. Would you guys recommend another 556 AK instead?
>>65320066Fyi the only mags that work perfect with it are the Zastava M85 mags they’re $50 each. The plastic z mags are good but they look gay.
>>65320066If you can find a Beryl for a non obscene (to you) price, sure. But that's unlikely.>go price check beryls>buy m90 and the spend the difference between the two on M85 steeliesA rifle and ~16 mags for ~$2k sounds better than just a $2k rifle. Even if the Beryl is cooler to some.
>>65320066Quality galil kit build or original import if you’re feeling rich. Avoid century and JRA. Hillbilly Firearms does good work.
>>65320502He said an AK, not a jewish abomination
>>65320488Figures. Well I'll probably give it some more thought but the m90 might be the way to go for me personally>>65320250Oh right.>>65320502Hah maybe some day.
>>65320606>Dood, Jooos
>>65305606I'm looking to get a hunting rifle and the zastava m76 is a legal choice here in my country and a rifle shop is selling it. How good of a rifle is it? I love the aesthetics but I'm looking for something really accurate. How good is it for scopes and other attachments? I want to run it with a thermal scope and hunting scopes.
>>65318911i agree just cause 7.62x39 is the traditional caliber and based but my 556 eats
>>65318467Both
>>65320066>>65320250my M90 works ok with Bulgarian poly 5.56 and AC Unity mags. The steel Zastava mags work the best but funny enough my "ZMAG" is pretty tight.
>>65321082M76 as all Zastavas are in the upper bracket of AK accuracy. You can expect around 2 MOA up to 300m with good ammunition.As for optics, as all Yugo rifles it is not compatible with AK side mounts or furniture. You would need dedicated accessories.
>>65318911The reason some 5,56 AKs have feeding issues is because many of them, especially American ones, are just poorly made. 5,56 Russian Saigas don't have more issues than 5,45 or 7,62 ones. Same with Finnish Valmets or Israeli Galils. The AK platform itself is perfectly capable of running every caliber from 5,45 to .12 gauge and .308.
>>65320066One thing you should know about the M90 is that it’s quite heavy. I believe it has the same barrel profile as the M70, but is about two inches longer and 223 bore instead of 30 bore, meaning there’s a lot more steel.
>>65321451Also has a 1.5mm thick receiver + the thiccboi trunnion.
>>65321313Instructions unclear, combined both and lost 15 rounds of capacity in the ensuing debacle.
>>65320066>m90>556 akno, wasr 10 and ammo. 556 aks are trash and gay
>>65300075I turned the screw head down in the lathe
>>65323605
>Surplus Yugo M67, made in Bosnia>New production Igman M67, made in Bosnia>Telaammo made in AzerbaijanWhich way, White man?
>>65323605>>65323613Well, it worked I guess. Nicer fix than hogging out the grip.You have a lathe, but do you have a bench grinder? Get a buffing wheel and show some love to that grip.
>>65323624>Yes.Surp M67 is goat, but corrosiveNew Igman M67 is probably just fine too.Tela is just cope GT. Is it corrosive? Maybe. Treat all AK ammo as if it were corrosive and clear your rifle. It'll be fine.
>>65323686They're all around the same price. I haven't bought since sanctions and I can't find shit on the boards. Prices are retarded, so I'm only buying one case. Still not sure what to get.
>>65323624I’m currently using Serbian Belom brass cased ammo and I really don’t think it gets much better than that for AK food.
>>65323527well maybe i'll just get both
How well does US made Arsenal plum furniture match surplus plum? I have a triangle folder with surplus handguards and pistol grip on my 74 and years ago I had a black poly folding set, but I sold it because I liked the look of plum and triangle better. Now I’m kind of wanting a polymer side folder again but don’t want to shell out all the money for a full black set when I could spend half that on just a plum poly folder, but will the plum poly folder look awful paired with the rest of my surplus plum furniture on the rifle?
>>65324804>How well does US made Arsenal plum furniture match surplus plumNot at all; PSA and other brands' are a similar color to Arsenal's as well.Different plastic (this matters a lot in coloration; both are nylon mixes but the mix is different), different base color for the dye, etcCommercial plum is noticeably lighter and more overtly "purple" than surp plum that tried to be "as close to black as possible." Buy a cheap grip if you need to see it in your hands to compare to believe me.
>>65324841I kinda figured that would still be the case but I hoped in the half decade I’ve been away from the AK world someone would have had some sort of more correct looking US made plum. I’ll just end up buying either a full set of black or just a black folder and hand it be mismatched with my plum. I took my SLR-104 out shooting last week for the first time in probably 5 or 6 years and forgot how much fun it was despite the fact cheap 5.45 is dead
>>65324910>someone would have had some sort of more correct looking US made plumThe slop consumers buy the incorrect (cheap) shit the companies are already providing, there's no incentive for them to be "correct" because the lowest common denominator of AK buyer in the US is some schmuck looking to buy "an AK-47" to shoot once a year to show his friends how cool he is when he LARPS Red Dawn. The audience that cares about "correct looking" things isn't large enough to warrant spending that capital to correct the colors; and on that demographic, it usually buys surp and gray market RU shit anyway instead of looks-matched copies made domestically because "authentic" is worth more to many of those people than just looking the part..>cheap 5.45 is deadCheap everything is dead, 5.45 is just the worst hit of the Cold War intermediate trio. It's still sub 60cpr for new production corrosive shit from Azerbaijan though.Being a 74fag is painful in current year, but still doable.>t. 74fag
>>65324940I just miss having genuine near unlimited cheap fun with my SLR-104. It was a great run while it lasted and I loved that rifle to death. Nowadays my intermediate caliber fun needs are met with an old Colt A2 and an AUG A2, and while I love those I miss the days of ripping through 7n6 without a care in the world with a truly phenomenal rifle
>>65324966Fair enoughI learned to bumpfire with my kitbuild 74 because I had 1500 rnds of Wolf I bought for $300 and wanted to see if I could do it; can't do that anymore. Even mags cost double what they used to, if you can still find surplus ones.
Vepr anon reporting in a day later, ended up only using it in the first stage and switched to my 1301 I brought as backup for the rest of the day. Didn't even entertain the idea of busting out the drum. Learned the hard way to not use the cheapest ammo I can get my hands on, in this case winchester white box, and I'm gonna try winchester AA instead at a friend's recommendation. A couple other guys in my squad who also had veprs (super tricked out Dissident Arms veprs at that) recommended federal action shotgun instead but that's more expensive and only comes in boxes of 200 so it's a full commitment.
I have a bunch of Golden Tiger I want to sell since I got rid of my AK. How much per round? 50-55?
If you want a 5.56 AK you have chosen already to forgo tradition so just get an m90 or m85. I have an m85 and love it. The steel zastava and polymer bulgarians work great.If I wanna shoot one though i grab my wasr10 and spray some x39 from my AKM.
>>65325515>end of that webmjej
>>65325515You suck at shooting AKs
>>65325522Where are you posting it? I’ll take it.
>>65324804>willingly choosing polymer over a triangle
>>65323624Belom, made in Serbia
>>65323794>>65326364Cool, thanks. I have never run brass through an AK before, lol. The online ammo market fucking sucks these days.Gonna hold off though because I just found a crate of 7n6 for a 37 cpr locally.
>>65326605Most brass FMJ 7.62x39 kind of sucks, I don't know what they get wrong since it's not the bullet diameter
>>65324804Not at all. Surp plum is made out of cancer and looks better.
>>65323624>go to ammoseek>search for 7.62x39>filter for free shipping>buy whatever has the lowest cprRight now it's Patriot Sports brass case Czech ammo fwiw
>>65326135The best thing about triangles is that you can easily strap those beefy rubber buttpads and velcro cheek pads to them.
>>65326772Belom is fine, very accurate for 7.62x39
>>65305606WBP Jackin’ it
>>65327337Fuck I don’t know why the picture oriented itself like that Fixed
>>65327276>you can easily strap those beefy rubber buttpads and velcro cheek pads to themOr a bolt on adjustable cheek rest.
>>65323686Tela 5.45 is confirmed corrosive. Not sure about their 7.62
>>65319436Its literally just a finnish valmet with a fal para stock
>>65326135Since im not mechanized infantry or jumping out of aircraft, folding stocks are simply less comfortable with no real world benefit
>>65327987It's very close to that in principle, yes
>>65328108So why sperg over it being a "bastard rifle"The BM59 is definitely a bastard rifle, and it is excellent If its good, its good. Hell the AR is a bastard rifle if you think about it. Johnson lmg bolt with ljungman-ish gas system, firing a slighty modified varmint cartridge, all in a wacky for the time inline layout made of space age plastics and aluminum
>>65328135the ak itself is just an upside down garand kek
>>65327998Good for vehicles too
SAM5 good? bad? overpriced? worth it at all?
>>65325897Was gonna sell it to a local dude but if he doesnt want any I'll probably post it on gunbroker
>>65328426Unironically the most disappointing 5.56 rifle I’ve ever owned since I began buying guns in 2008.
>>65328780Fugg... any specifics?
>>65308478>Never seen a Serb simp that wasn't also a SerbNice projection, Toniblerim Clintoniqi or whatever flavor of balkan diasporoid you happen to be. Not a single German, American, Canadian, Italian, Greek, or Australian flag I've ever seen positively post about albanians on this site has ever been an actual westoid.>brings up cocks unpromptedLeast gay /k/um slurper
>>65328798Wildly overgassed to the point that recoil was fully unacceptable for 5.56 (still only 5.56 recoil but still) and so overgassed that the bolt carrier gets deformed when it smacks the end of the receiver at the end of its travel. You could put a rubber buffer in, you could put a KNS piston in, but it was just such a disappointing rifle for me that even if I did all that to fix it I’d still be mad that I even had to do any of that to fix a rifle that cost me $1800. I bought it to more or less replace 5.45 for me in an AK and I would legitimately rather shoot an overgassed short barreled AR without a can than shoot the SAM5. It had no reason to jump around as much as it did when shooting especially for a milled gun and the fact that it was literally damaging itself simply by functioning was something that would have just constantly bugged me even after doing what I could to remedy it. I don’t know if they fixed later batches with correct size gas ports or what, I sold mine a few months after buying it new because it was just such a crap experience.
>>65329163it seems like the newer batches have been fixed, but goddamn that sucks
>>65328426>SAM5 good? bad? overpriced? worth it at all?I bought one on the 250th sale, 61 prefix 2021 NOS batch. Got it for $1500, and came with a $50 coupon that I used towards correct furniture. Gave it to my builder as soon as it passed my exterior inspection. Zero cant, fit is exceptional, finish is typical arsenal paint. Gas port was drilled to 7.62 spec, with restrictor in place as I suspected. Had it welded up to 5.56 spec, and he cut the receiver for the correct ambi selector and pressed on a correct bulgy 24mm fsp.He's charging me $100 for the labor because he's cool like that, and I'm in ~$250 for the correct furniture ambi selector, bulgy fsp, ar-m9 grip, arsenal railed handguard and arsenal vfg. I'll post pics when I get it back.
>>65328937I think both Albanians and Serbs are low IQ mongoloid peoples
>>65329670Don’t have pics but basically its going to be configured exactly like my SAM7SF, but fixed stock until I can get the collapsible. I’m picking up a SAM7K from my FFL tomorrow too.
>>65329676The Arsenal flash hider is so damn fugly
>>65329684You hate the eggbeater, but you give the massive arsenal VFG a pass? I kinda agree but my aktism won't let me put anything but surplus factory shit on my guns. I'm replacing the FIME fcg with surplus tomorrow.
>>65329689I kinda like old school beercan grip VFGs, hard to use on AKs though because you run into problems getting the mag out even with some shorter ones
>>65329691I actually need to move this one forward a touch. I got some circle 10 waffles today and none of them fit the sam7sf. Go figure lol
>>65329696You'd think Arsenal mags would fit an Arsenal rifle but what do I knowI have an IMI mag that got stuck in my Saiga so bad first try, we had to whack the mag release with an axe to get it out. Great mag otherwise but required serious filing
>>65327998>reduce the footprint of your rifle>not a real world benefitThis sounds like AR babby cope. Being able to transport my AK in a tennis racquet bag that doesn't scream "I HAVE A GUN" is definitely a real world benefit.
>>65330237Folders are a big reason why I love AKs
>>65330237>living somewhere where you have to worry about if people know you have a gun or not
>>65329163So you bought a lemon
>>65330725NTA, yeah he did but its not his fault. Arsenal fucked up the SAM5 by drilling the gas port to 7.62 spec. Kike-var, in typical scumbag Armenian fashion, denied it up and down and sent out cease and desist letters to AK forums discussing it. They finally agreed to fix affected guns (all of them) by installing a restrictor. You must be a newfag noguns because this was huge news 5 years ago.
I swear to God most people on Ak files cannot read. Guaranteed the first 4-5 posts you get are from people who didn't read your post making non sequiturs or recommending things you've already done. After that you get 1 or 2 people who can actually read but they end up arguing with the first 4 retards that misread things. Also, that faggot mod with the rat pfp races to be the first to reply. Doesn't matter if it's at 3 AM, he'll be there with some reddit tier reply just because he thinks his opinion is valuable enough to contribute to every single thread ever. Ak forum is a wasteland with the same 3 people talking to each other. Weapons guild is slow. I hate everything
>>65329676nice
>>65330716like literally every single place on the planet? Because all people arent stupid and everyone feels slightly more comfortable and unaware when there are no guns around?
>>65329676What foregrip is that?
>>65331178What was the question?
>>65331178Average age of AKFiles is like 80 years old dude. And yeah fuck Nails I hate that faggot. He’s racism banned me like 9 times. >>65331817Arsenal
>>65318911>556 AKs struggle with feeding and reliability issues because the AK was not designed to run a nonstandard round. 7.62/5.45 or just get an AR15.Nigga what?My saiga 223 runs fine.My Yugo m76 in 8mm mauser runs fineMy Yugo m77 in 7.62 NATO runs fine.
New can arrived. Haven't shot it yet. Fucking reee that 7.62x39 is 59-61cpr shipped right now. Fuck.>>65331178AKfiles is solid af IMO save for the retards and boomers. At least there aren't any tranny faggots on it. I'll take a dumb retarded boomer any day over a tranny faggot. Nails is a shithead I'll admit that. >>65318911Bullshit. There is no reason that 5.56 AKs can't be done right.
Lately I've been interested in the AKS-74U
>>65332563>Bullshit. There is no reason that 5.56 AKs can't be done right.Make your own then. Oh thats right, you can't lmao
>>65330716I live in Yuropea and an incognito gun bag is a great boon for breaking gay local laws>keep gun in car in gun bag: some asshole will report it and it's kind of obvious what's inside>keep gun in car in a big gym bag: nobody's reporting a suspicious gym bag in someone else's car
I buy m90. If I don't like it for whatever reason I blame you, /k/, YOU
>>65333160I told you not to get a 5.56 AK you fucking retard, but instead you decided to listen to an attention seeking tripfag. Do you not realize that shills are only telling you to get a 5.56 AK because they want to keep the price of 7.62/5.45 down?
>>65333160I fuck your mother. If I don't like it for whatever reason I blame you, anon, YOU
>>65320606The galil is literally the best version of the ak
>>65313032Folding top cover with rail, hinge machined into rear sight block.
>>65331799Skill issue, I could walk to my post office and back with a rifle slung over my shoulder and nobody'd give a fuck
>>65332804Other than the jacked up barrel pin every "issue" in this image is pure autism. If it shoots it shoots who cares
>>65333925>every "issue" in this image is pure autismYeah. The context of the original image (years ago at this point) is that he was hyper focusing on little stuff like milling of serial numbers to force match parts while simultaneously making egregious mistakes like wrong receiver/markings etc. Also shit talking people after they helped him set up the project. This isn't even the really bad one mind you. Theres a couple where he warped the shit out of one and took and angle grinder and flux core or stick welder to it. People just post that image to bug him because he was super proud of it. Usually, he'll just pretend he wasn't the one that built it because he's ashamed but every now and then you can make him crash out over it.
>>65332224I had question about book-keeping and insurance stuff. AKfiles is usually pretty good with that topic because there's a lot of large vendors and small shop owners that like talking business there. No dice this time. Sometimes it's like arts and crafts time at the special ed section of a nursing home staffed an actually homosexual caretaker. I have to try so hard not to get banned
>>65334342Dad! It's fucking over bro!
>>65334342>>65334368get out of the tread rats! you are fucking up my luck!
>>65334391>he doesn't know it's fucking rigged bro
>>65333898Still jewish, and still not an AK
>>65334391>>65334368>>65334401Fuck you Rat mod. Nails is a fucking rat dude omg dude its over
