>>65358157Is this gun using blanks... to pump water?
>>65358201Iirc, it's a fire suppression foam system.But yes I do believe it uses blanks.
>>65358216This is pretty hilarious and very Soviet. What's it called?
>>65358235>What's it called?I don't know it's designation, but here's an article about it.https://kalashnikov.club/a/pozharnyy-ak-kak-poyavilas-neobychnaya-razrabotka >With a clearer picture than I used in the OP.Looking at it in lower res, I first thought he had a Plum waffle, but in this it's clearly a ribbed 103.
>>65358307Thanks, it's apparently called the "ИП-1", but the project was stillborn, probably due to some Russian firearms regulations. Would've probably gone further if they had based it on a pump shotgun.
brap
>>65358157All clothes should fit like thar
>>65358601Thats how zoomer chicks dress
>Excuse me while I whip this out
if you guys remember this, I asked you how much I should sell this repro dong for. I sold it for $250
>>65360643Nice. So what'd you replace it with, or are you just rocking the no HG Somali pirate look?
>>65360643aren't those 3d prined?
>>65360643Holy fuck someone paid $250 for that?
>>65360841replaced it with an old worn out Romanian (I think?) palmswell hardwood handguard that I accidentally cracked and chipped putting it on because I'm a gigantic impatient retard and I don't really care about it. It's a WASR and that wood is worn as fuck, I just like how smooth it feels>>65362683I actually can't tell, the dong lower handguard feels much heavier than something 3D printed, unless the maker filled it with something. The bottom screw hole looks like wood but the inside kinda looks 3D printed so idk>>65362967yes and I had multiple buyers interested
>>65360643How do you know it was a repro again?Because that sure isn't wood, it looks like dried out bakelite to me.>mfw someone else got a nice deal on a bakelite dong and it wasn't me.
what is /akg/s opinion on the iglim ak-103 parts kit? azerbaijani made and built to the same specifications as they were in russia?
>>65365415>built to the same specifications as they were in russiaEvery single person I've seen actually have the parts in-hand has said they're grossly out of spec with real RU parts, and that there's a clear step down in QA and manufacturing tolerance.
Gents, I bought a WASR10/63 when I was 18 (15 years ago) and it's been chillin in my safe periodically slathered in oil basically the whole time since. I've been way more into shooting/buying/carrying pistols and the AK is my only rifle. I feel like I want to shoot it more now, but I literally don't know where to start. >The 30 round mags I bought with it are "legal to own" in my state since I bought them pre-ban but I can't take them to the rangeThe mag buyers guide wasn't super clear, are the Magpul 10 rounders the best small cap mags for the price?>It only has iron sightsHow do I tell if my front sight is canted? It "looks" good to me. Should I just put an LPVO or small red dot on it anyway?>I don't want to drop $130+ on a legit side rail mount. Any good optic mount options for cheap? >retard question incoming Is the 15 year old 500rd tub of steal case wolf 7.62 good to shoot?Thanks!
Can those niggers at RS finally get off their asses and drop the Gen 2 Galil handguards? I want a new 5.45 rifle but I'm not getting it until there's at least one decent aftermarket handguard out there
>>65368950>I feel like I want to shoot it more now, but I literally don't know where to startTake it out and shoot it. That's the start.>are the Magpul 10 rounders the best small cap mags for the price?Probably, but I don't really fuck with commercial mags.>How do I tell if my front sight is canted?Invert the rifle and place the sights on a flat surface. If the sights are straight, the ears on the front will both sit flat as will the rear sight.Pic related>Should I just put an LPVO or small red dot on it anyway?Sure, why not.>I don't want to drop $130+ on a legit side rail mount.Then don't. >Any good optic mount options for cheap?Not really. Airshit replica tier mounts will shift or just flat out break, so you're better off just buying once, crying once imo.>Is the 15 year old 500rd tub of steal case wolf 7.62 good to shoot?Lel, yes. I'm currently shooting M67 from the 1980s, I think your basically new Wolf will be fine.Also, post it nigger. :)Too few AKs in /akg/ these days.
>>65368977They're definitely not gonna make it until the ACE is gone from the market.>or if you do buy one, never make it. lelThat's how shit works.>You can never have two things that go together on the market at the same time.
>>65369020The most infuriating thing is that they've already been produced. They've been sending them out to guntuber faggots on Reddit for months but still haven't put them up for sale yet because of "issues with their anodizer".
>>65369051Then get the gun and wait for them to "work out the problems with their annodizer"? I'm not seeing the problem.Unless it's your need for instant gratification that's the problem.>Hurry up and wait or become a goytuber and get sent shit early
Meridian dropped ak102’sFor $2k
>>65369051On noes, a company won't sell a substandard product, how awful of them!
Suppressed an AKTorrent of gas in the faceBeg for assistance
>>65369001Thanks pal! The front sight seems like it's good enough. It's usually flat depending on the range I set the rear to. I'll send it with irons and see how it looks on paper at 100 yards.
>>65370457are you jewish? AK's can pick up on it well.
>>65370457>leather gasket between dust cover and recoil guide>electrical tape over the gap between dust cover and receiver>reddit piston>low-backpressure silencer>Ops-Core SOTRThose are your options. I actually highly recommend the SOTR. It’s one of the few products shilled by Garand Fag that turned out to be worth it.
Can anyone recommend a barrel for a Bulgy 74 5.56 conversion? Was thinking about the AK builder barrel made for that, but want hear about other options.
>>65358157
Russian Type-2 AK non-matching kit build for sale on Moka's Raifus for only 8500 bucks lol
>>65373884Holy shit. Giving KikeVar a run for their money. The sad part is, it'll sell.
>>65373884Reweld or tortort
I know its not an ak, but why the fuck won't zastava import more of theseI want controlled round feed for $500 or however much these sold for a few years back
>>65373884I saw a matching NICE t2 kit sell for 6500 on gb a few months back8500 for this mixmatched garbage is ridiculous
>>65364185Nta, it was wood iirc. Painted or something maybe
>>65374221just don't look at the Russian SVD they have a page for that was 20,000 dollars. Someone bought it.
>>65374216I think because of sanctions or whatever they have to get approval from Serbian government for every export shipment of firearms, so they're probably only focusing on what sells the most like M70 and M92. They haven't imported the M77 in a while either.
>>65374235Well bona fide military SVDs are a lot rarer than a TIGR or something I see they had a Hungarian one too, whatever happened with those? I thought they ended up being vaporware
>>65374240God thats such bullshit>everything_i_want_is_banned_from_import.png
>>65374235>Russian SVD >20,000 dollars>Someone bought itWHY.jpgYou could get a PSG1 with original accessories and documents for that kind of money, and unlike the SVD, that's actually a good and accurate rifle.
>>65358157 kind of off-topic but what were the firefighters using AKs for
>>65374492it's for fighting fires
>>65374504oh okay
>>65374492It shoots out foamy jizz canisters like a can cannon to extingish the fires
>>65374538Not quite, but close enough lel.
>>65374234That's why I'm asking him specificly. Looks like bakelite to me, and I've never seen a repro with what would have to be hand carved checkering on it. Nor the ribs at the top.This is a wood repro, and it's $400>doesn't really matter now, as he already sold it
>>65374630If wood repros are worth that much maybe I should try my hand at making a few lol
>>65374723You should give it a shot.
Local shops are filled with Riley Defense and Century Arms bullshit, a WASR is $1k and Zastava AKs are $1k+.I really fucked myself by waiting this long to get an AK, huh
>>65375015Yes. They also won't get any cheaper the long you wait. Just pay the 1k for a wasr
>>65375076I guess my method of crossing my fingers and hoping The War™ would end quick to open imports back up backfired on me.
>>65375015If you wait any more it'll on get worse!:')
>>65375294I know theyre pieces of shit but I want one
>>65364185>>65374234Sorry I'm just now answering this, I worked over the weekend into tuesday. Check out these next two pictures, looking inside the handguard and the bottom it really looks like wood/3D printed. It felt like painted wood. I have a lot of bakelite stuff and it was heavier than bakelite. I still don't know for sure maybe I sold a legit one for way too cheap. What do you think? It certainly looks better than that shitty wood piece of shit repro on gunbroker
>>65375452
>>65375454
>>65375452>>65375454>I have a lot of bakelite stuff and it was heavier than bakeliteBakelite handguards are a lot more bulk than just a grip or a mag.That sure looks like bakelite to me, but without having it in hand I couldn't be 100 percent sure.Extremely dried out though.>Like this one is starting to around the table that slots into the receiver and the cleaning rod hole, but yours is way worse offLittle love and it could've been fine again though. But I mean it not like you sold it for $50, and you didn't seem super hyped about it so it sounds like both parties did ok.
>>65375452>>65375454>>65375565 (Me)Ok I pulled it up on a bigger screen and now I'm not sure at all anymore.The layer lines on the bottom of the grip are not indicative of bakelite mold, which is shown in the split seam down the middle on the pic I posted of a real one.Appreciate the follow up though.Whoever did that did a pretty bang up job, if it is a print.Carry on and enjoy the para-trooper.
Who makes the best one of these? Railed front sight base. Anyone got pictures?
>>65365415They’re fine. Might need more work than Russian stuff to fit. If you’re not retarded you could put one together.
>>65375454100% that is 3d printed. Can’t believe someone paid 250 for that but happy for you
