Where can I find a NIB Arsenal SLR107-34 (triangle folder) for sale if at all?

Or, can a triangle stock fit on a SAM7SF because that tube stock on them now is ugly as fuck.

Also about the SAM7s, can a bakelite grip fit on it with the special thumb selector or not?

>Where can I find a NIB Arsenal SLR107-34 (triangle folder) for sale
Try forums. I got mine NIB and unfired off of arfcom.
>Or, can a triangle stock fit on a SAM7SF because that tube stock on them now is ugly as fuck.
No.
>Also about the SAM7s, can a bakelite grip fit on it with the special thumb selector or not?
No.

Sorry, the AK market kind of fucking sucks right now.

>>34975719
SLRs are no longer being imported and factory triangle folders haven't been imported on them in a number of years. You're going to have to find one secondhand.

>>34975816
>or should i just build it one piece at a time
And how are you going to go about doing that?

>>34975816
WASR. Building yourself is definitely doable, but it's not like an AR where you can do it with $50 in tools and a free afternoon. Buying is definitely the fastest, easiest, and most inexpensive way to get an AK.

If you don't want a WASR I also suggest an OPAP (akfiles has one in good shape for $700 right now), SAR 1, or MAK90 with AKM furniture on it if you don't care about a threaded barrel, bayo lugs, or cleaning rod.

Yes, but it was for the first time with that AK because it was the only mag I could get to fit initially. I have no qualms about shooting it a little because it's already so beat up. But given its extremely rare status I don't plan on using it much more. The aluminum has clearly taken a lot of wear that you wouldn't see with steel lugs and feed lips.

Now the translucents I haven't even fully loaded because I'm afraid the pressure on the feed lips will crack them, lol.

>>34976280
>but it was for the first time with that AK
The meaning of this statement is that it was the first time I have ever used that mag to shoot with. And it was done with my AKM because it was the only mag my AKM would take.

Also I think the worn paint over the shiny aluminum looks really good.

Also it took me about 6 tries to upload that picture. 0.2Mbps average upload

I'd like shooting it a lot more if I wasn't stuck with the old Arsenal 2 stage. God this trigger is a disgrace. JBI didn't send my original trigger parts back so I'm stuck with it for now. He said he'd look for them for me but it doesn't sound too promising.

Other than that it shoots like an AKM. Very light weight compared to all my other AKs except of course my krink. And heats up to dangerous hot after a single mag of slow shooting. Definitely didn't get it as a shooter though.

>>34976392
Some guy had a matching set of either 4 or 6 mags, can't remember. They all had matching serial numbers of the AKM they were used to test on, as well as individual identification numbers. My mag is #1 of the set. It was a shame to break up the set but the guy wanted like $2500 for them all and nobody wanted to pony up. It's really cool to me because it makes me think my mag was actually used to test the viability of the prototype design.

Why do builders always fucking do that? Honestly, shouldn't have sent the FCG with the parts kit in the first place anyway.

>>34976518
I mean it shouldn't be any hotter than your AKMS gets. Yesterday I zeroed my front sight and after a full mag with lots of breaks in between going to check my target and walking back and adjusting my sights, it was still hot to the touch.

>>34976535
He said he keeps them unless they say otherwise. Which I think is a pretty shitty practice because that's still my property. Hell even the demilled receiver stubs are my property. I sent it with it because I wanted to make sure he had all the trigger pins and the hammer spring and shit and I couldn't be bothered to take them out of the package. Guess I learned my lesson.

That don't make no sense cuz they should have the same barrel profiles and they're shooting the same bullets

>>34976627
Could be the polish laminate handles heat better ? How does the gassing feel on yours?

>>34976656
Nah I'm not talking about the wood, I'm talking about the temp of the barrel, which shouldn't be affected greatly by the handguards or the gas port size. Mine feels slightly overgassed but the gas port was already drilled on the Romanian barrel so that's not on JBI. Unless he opened up the gas port for some retarded reason.

I would replace the spring with one of my high strength springs but no more than I'll shoot this one, I'd rather just keep it original.

I carried a P30 for a while and ended up buying a P30L after I stopped carrying the P30 and sold it, but don't regret getting the P30 just because it isn't the P30L. It's still a great gun

>>34976777
P30 LEM mah nigga. It's the only option in my opinion. Only problem is I'm used to putting my finger near the bottom of the trigger bow for the most leverage and it rubs inside the trigger guard under recoil. I need to shoot with it a lot more to get over it.

Harvey is about to hit, but I'm in Austin. Nevertheless people are all freaking out and buying all the non-perishable food and water they can. Meanwhile I'm just like "y'know I lived through Andrew as a kid in Florida, this won't be shit" and basically planning a staycation. The worst I expect to happen is for the power to go out if the wind picks up, which it probably will.

Probably won't get to the range on Sunday to fiddlefuck with my Shield's new sights though, which sucks.

about the same, what happens is the bolt pushes the round in the chamber, but the rim rides underneath the bolt, stopping it halfway

>>34977980
What kind of fitting should I have to do?

I imagine filing down the area where the thumb selector is?

>>34979162
sounds like a problem with the feed angle.

try swapping followers between working and non-working mags if you can and see what happens. the circle 10 followers should fit in bakes and vise versa. also try holding the mags tilted forward in the rifle and see if it improves feeding

failing that you would have to modify/change the bullet guide, but i wouldn't recommend it

I've been doing some research on the AKT hammer and while re-profiling it does help a bit, its the fact that the AKT hammer is a hard mother fucker compared to the tail that causes the majority of the deformation.

Up to you if you want to do it or not. I figure 15 minutes with a file on a level surface and some fine sand paper is worth the peace of mind.

I love it, I shoot it more than any other semi auto full size rifle cartridge rifle. I had a .308 VEPR and sold it because I shot the M1 more and also had an FAL, and now I just sold my FAL because I still shoot my M1 more. It's a fantastic rifle, even with the US WWII service rifle cool factor set aside it's still a fantastic rifle and a joy to shoot. Don't even bother with an M1A, if you don't have an M1 get an M1

>>34981334
They really aren't. At best the 104 is an accurate copy of the AKS-74N and the rest of their AKs are their take on the AK-100 series but using the AKS-74 as a base gun instead of an AK-74M like the Russians. Example, my SLR-107 is basically a AKS-74 but chambered in 7.62x39. An AK-103 is an AK-74M with some slightly different parts chambered in 7.62x39.

????????

>>34981610
All those surplus steel mags are copies of the Soviet pattern. There's no practical difference between a Romanian, Polish, Bulgarian, or East German steel magazine except the price some Jew on the internet is going to charge you because East Germans and Bulgarians don't have the reputation of being filthy gypsy's like Romanians do.

>>34981631
Are the east German mags worth the price? I've heard these are some of if not the best steel ak mags ever produced.

>>34980591
Burr in chamber. Shoot it more and it will lessen

>>34981653
They'll all work just fine. Get the E. German mag if you want one. If you have a MPi-KM rifle you want to have a correct mag or something like that. For shooters, just get the $11 Romy or Polish mags. Idk, maybe there's something I'm missing about the E German mags, but that's my opinion.
>>34981674
Other than an SGL31-94, getting a custom receiver made, finding a good Bulgarian CHF 5.45 barrel, paying the premium for proper 74M demilled parts, and having it sent off to be assembled. It'll be more expensive than the SGL31-94 by a long shot, but it will also be a 100% accurate AK-74M clone if you get the right parts.

>>34981653
No, all Eastern European stamped steel mags are more or less the same with a few exceptions. There's no reason to not buy $12 Polish or $12 Romanian steel mags unless you're specifically after the mags of other countries for collecting or to match a rifle

>>34981674
There isn't any outside of sourcing parts and having something built. SGL31-94s were the closest we've had in the US and even those aren't 100% correct 74m clones

There's a few that are okay, the like 1% that have green or blue eyes and the 20% of that 1% that don't have some ugly nose thing going on.

It's fine with the QRP2's spacer removed. I'd like it a little lower but the PRO is destined for another rifle and I'm not going to spend money on a mount just for this setup. I'm going to order an extended rail whenever I decide which aimpoint is going to live on my AUG for good.

From what I've heard about the extended rail, it's basically the same height as an AR15's pic rail, so you've got a whole world of mounting options to choose from. I'd probably leave the spacer in on an extended rail for that reason.

You are welcome.

>>34982641
I want my fucking 5.45 Tavor but IWI fucked me so I'll never be able to commit to the larp

>>34982641
There isn't one. There are currently no new production 5.45 guns being imported into the US.

>>34982641
None. It's a dead caliber. Deal with it.

>>34982658
Why in the fuck would you ever want that?

>>34982659
>>34982660
What frustrates me, is that I don't see why arsenal can't make a 5.45 brother to the 107R.

>>34982698
Because nobody buys 5.45

>>34982641

5.45 is on its way out,once russian ammo is banned that will be the kill shot.


you can even buy a factory made rifle in 5.45 anymore, the slr104 was discontinued by arsenal due to low demand, 5.45 isn't worth their time.

>>34982703
Shit tier companies still seem to be making/selling 5.45s.

>>34982703
Sure we buy 5.45 by the case, but we're at best a few dozen autists. The Czech military bought more 7.92x33 during the latter half of the Cold War than we'll ever buy in 5.45. It's only still in production because the Russians and Ukies use it.

>>34982698
Because IWI licensed out the Tavor blueprints to RPC Fort and they make 5.45 Tavors. IWI said conversion kits would come to the US but then fucked off and changed their mind

>>34982729
That would make sense if Arsenal wasn't scaling back production of the x39s as well.

From what I remember, the official statement was that they had to scale sales back stateside to fill other contracts.

>>34982748

>>34982777

>>34982814
That's not what I implied at all you fucking prick. I asked a legitimate question about what military contracts they're filling that requires them to scale back production for the US market.

guy who bought the 5 grade 2 romanian x39 mags the other day here

originally none of them fit my wasr at all, they'd all go in and feed perfectly but refused to come out without smacking the mag disconnect with a mallet

I systematically took a file to all of them and now they're possible to disconnect with just the support thumb. Almost all of them have a slight wobble, some more than others but I'm willing to toss out the worst 1-3 of them depending on how they preform at the range

thanks for the tips on how to loosen them up

>>34982829
The answer is that they've retooled all of their active production lines that we know of to fulfilling military contracts for 7.62x39 and 5.56x45 models of rifles for Iraq, Jordan (possibly), a shit ton of African countries, and a few gulf states.

Fucking Arsenal.

>>34982875
You'll have to file them to the point of never being able to work in a stamped gun again, but go for it

>>34982845
Mag release, a mag disconnect is a type of safety that prevents the gun from firing without a magazine inserted to keep retards from killing themselves

>>34982902
you are correct

Can always check zenitco's other approved dealers on their site, can't guarantee pricing is as competitive or shipping is as good as RT tho

A WTB on AKFiles always works too

>>34982698
>I don't see why arsenal can't make a 5.45 brother to the 107R

They actually did at one point. The slr-105 was discontinued and they started pumping out the 104 series to replace it.

>>34982729
>the slr104 was discontinued by arsenal due to low demand

They discontinued the 104 so they could use those machines to turn out even more 7.62x39 rifles that are being funneled into the middle east. Bulgaria is a relatively poor country and there is basically zero EU interference in the flow of arms to these conflict zones, at least for now. Demand had very little to do with it compared to the assloads of CIAbux they're receiving from the region.

that goes against Arsenal's reason for why they discontinued 5.45 models.

Well the thread is past bump limit, and I'm >>34983161 and certainly not the spamming vatnik. I do however, appreciate the 2 videos, especially the second one.

if one were to only have one AK, would it be better to have it in 7.62 or 5.45?
