So after seeing people's akt disconnector beat the shit out of their rivets on the bottom rear of the receiver I've decided to remove mine from my WASR and SLR-106. 106 looks fine but not taking chances, the WASR's bolt carrier tail got beat to shit and that rivet looks hammered on hard too. Kinda pissed. Ordered a combloc Romy trigger from files but not sure what I'll put in the 106.

Get the new one.

>>32713578
Yeah I'm doing alot of research before setting out on this project because it's probably going to be more time consuming and expensive than I would plan for. Also how well does the optic keep zero on what I assume is a side rail?

Can I tighten an underfolder? I know they get loose after awhile, but if I can just tighten it I might get one because I think they're really cool.

>>32713810
Yeah, it's like an airsoft hi-cap. You have to tighten it every time you need to fire.

>>32713779
I'll check it out

>>32713788
yeah it wound up being like $1600 for the gun, optic & stock set. i got the optic @ christmas and have only made it to the range about 3 times since then but once i got it zeroed in its worked great.

Yeah, it may be petty of me, or austism, or maybe I just don't like stupid shit. If the shit happens with all triggers and is just inherited in the design I'm OK with that. But it mushrooming the fuck out of the bolt carrier is enough reason for me, that shit is gay. I reprofiled the hammer and removed the sharp edges that cause the carrier damage but after I looked at the bottom of Daewoo's receiver and mine I just said fuck that shit.

>>32714315
I don't have a chart, but if you want to zero the Russian 400 meter zero you'll shoot 22cm high at 100 meters. You draw a 44cm circle, set it up at 100 meters, and aim at the bottom edge and zero til the rounds hit dead center of the circle while you're still aiming at the bottom of the circle

I've always zeroed at 100 meters (~110 yards, should be good to just fudge it at 100 yards) at with a 100 meter zero you'll shoot about 4 inches low at 200 meters

I personally prefer to just hold over and shoot low than aim low and shoot high like with the 400 meter zero

This is all with 7n6 btw, not sure how exactly it'd effect it with different commercial ammo

>>32714636
Not the guy you responded to but can I zero 5.45 like 5.56? As in zero at 15 and be good to 300m?

>>32714636
Yea I know about 400m, but all my chevrons are gonna be calibrated for 54r, and like you said 22cm high at 100.
I was doing something like you do with ARs with a 200m zero so that it's not as much of a pain to do all my holdovers

How does a cancerous shithole like /brg/ have an inauguration day edition but we don't? You really dropped the ball, OP

>>32714655
>>32714647
Not sure, I've looked for some info about that because it makes it super easy but I can never find anything consistent (multiple people saying different stuff, piss me off) so I just zero normally at 100 meters

The 400 meter zero is nice in theory when shooting at man sized targets but when you're shooting to hit small targets it's a huge pain so I never do it anymore

>>32714677
Yeah we just don't have the same kind of accuracy autists in the AK world as they have in the AR world to figure all that shit out.

Fuck all of you.

Magpul is fine.

Got offered this for my PTR as well as a WASR (lel)

Gonna need some guidance from you guys since I don't know shit about AK's. What the fuck is a Khyber Pass AK? I think this looks good but if it's not made by someone reliable hell with that.

Latch for the folding stock on the receiver is neat though.

>>32714079
>>32715810
My rpk does that too. The POI shifts 2-3 inches depending where the bipod is.

>>32716377
A "Khyber" is a mixmaster AK, usually made with a 7.62 chamber but using mid-1980s AK-74 parts alongside AKM parts.

In the US, this usually translates to "an AKM but with an AKS-74 folding stock" and not a whole lot else.

>>32716420
Gotcha. I dig the way it looks, but if I can't get a lot of info on the manufacturer I don't think I'll be interested.

>>32716432
You're not going to find a manufacturer, as Khybers are, by definition, kit builds. Best you can do is ask what parts kit was used as a base, who made the receiver, and who assembled the gun.

Valment never ;_; sounds so sexy too

There are a handful of small manufacturers in Pakistan that make serial production 7.62x25 mini-AKs.

I remember I got a gallery of pictures from one of them and it included a nice shot of just some chickens in a coop lel.

The "Khyber Pass AK" = AKM with AK74 triangle sidefolder cobbled onto it, possibly by a Pathan gunsmith in Pakistan. So called due to pictures from the 1980s war in Afghanistan of various mujhaddin types armed with similar rifles. See attached pic.

I personally like the configuration, though not everyone does. It's not the most comfortable stock out there for 5.45mm, and everything uncomfortable about it is made worse by the increased recoil of 7.62mm.

There's no telling who built it or what parts they used with just that description, of course. So I can't even guess how much it's worth, if anything.

i truly hate that LAV is the one who gets to handle all the rare AK variants. Larry Snickers could ruin a fucking silent movie with the way he runs his mouth off.

>>32716814
If original Romanian chrome-lined barrel, maybe, with some dosh thrown in.

If US-made barrel, AHAHAHAHAHAHA no.

>>32716711
Been waiting to see you pop back up. What do you think of the your Beretta so far? Im genuinely curios to get a /k/ommando's impression on it.

>>32716853
How much boot do you think would be reasonable with the AK?

>>32716960
I will pull a figure of $200 out of my ass. PTRs aren't cheap and I never see used ones. Anywhere. Ever. Even on Armslist or Gunbroker.

>>32717094
Keep in mind I paid $780 for mine new. They're not cheap but they're definitely not crazy expensive either.

>>32717125
I never see them under $950 new, and the PTR32, the 7.62x39mm variant that really interests me, is nowhere under $1400 that I can find. That's M1A money.

>>32717180
Bought mine from buds for $780 shipped before this last Christmas.

I now have someone offering an SAR-2. Might go for that just because I actually know the specifics of it.

If i only shot a couple magazines worth of 7n6 do i need to go HAM on cleaning it? My cleaners seem to have grown legs and walked off

>>32717125

Non-CHF US made barrels lessen the value of an AK.

>>32717394
Yes. If all else fails take a shower with it.

With the Current Trump-Russia controversy, a relaxation of sanctions would make traditional Repubs revolt. I doubt that Saigas will make a return, probably ever.

Are you going traditional furniture or modernized?

Does the Saiga have an izzy stamped trunnion?

>>32717892
Only potential I see is a lifting of sanctions in exchange for reduction in nuclear arsenal.

Convince me not to pull the trigger on this right now.

>>32717985
Check if he has the cleaning rod and original furniture, and also if that extendo handguard required removal of the handguard retainer. You really don't want to have to put one of those back on

>>32717985
Was the handguard retainer removed ?

Just purchased a 2009 SGL 31-84

payed $1600

Considering an AK-105 build, although I may just put it in AK-74M config and keep it that way.

>>32717958
If it happens, this is how he'll play it. A "reset" in relations, dropping the sanctions in exchange for a disarmament deal. Brand himself as a peacemaker.

>>32715544
Ill trade you a fully converted saiga 5.45 for that. Based ok

>>32718037
Not bad

>>32717985

If that's a MWI gen 2 you're buying a damaged rifle. He's cut the sling loop off of the front handguard retainer. Only way to replace it is to press the fsb and gas block off.

>>32717985
I'd personally keep the PTR but you do you.

It is pretty sad, they missed it in QC once in Arsenal Bulgaria and again in Arsenal USA (or they both saw it and didn't care) Its bullshit that everyone thinks Arsenal is infallible because its expensive but everyone gives DDI shit for 2 extractors breaking than being fixed but Arsenal gets a pass and people going, and I quote "Thats completely normal and not uncommon, They will not replace the barrel, nor should they.

What's worse is that I heard it's a "factory" SBR, meaning Arsenal LV actually put the crown on it, so there's simply no way they didn't notice. I wonder if the bore and the barrel are parallel at least.

Nasty 90 degree gas block (nothing wrong with this but it looks ugly on an "AKM") with an AK47 front sight block.

>>32718119
Do these come in as pistols or as rifles that are cut down at Arsenal USA

>>32718050
Yeah, I think I did OK. Won't have to bother getting the 5.5mm trunnion installed.

Seller has it set up like an afghanistan-era AKS-74, so he threw the laminate handguards, two NOS plums, and the original polymer/box/accessories.

Internals look clean, only wear points are the levers and stock latch.

How slim are the odds that I can find a never fired, NIB fixed stock factory Russian or Bulgarian 74? All of the fixed stock 5.45 rifles I've looked at locally were VERY obviously someone's 7n6 bumpfire machine for years until the tap got shut off and they decided to dump the caliber.

>>32718035
>>32718034
>>32718066
Would >>32718144 >>32718118 be better off than the Arsenal, assuming the retainer was removed on the 104?

>>32718152
It appears as rifles. Notice how the crown of the barrel has no chrome on it. If it was a truly factory short barrel, it would have chrome extending over the crown.

So Arsenal cut down the barrel and actually crowned the barrel. They couldn't have not seen this.

>>32718157
Even better. Only thing I would do is get the pistol grip plate installed, that really ties the look together in my opinion.

>>32718185
Mine is a full retard conversion. Everything from is off a bulgy 74 parts kit including trigger guard/mag catch.

>>32718185
It's not terrible, we've already told you the monetary values but if it's really what you want the 200 or so dollar difference is whatever

>>32718247
Again I paid $780 for the PTR, I'm not too concerned about what they're priced at right now. Closest I've seen a fully converted Saiga for was $750 on AKFiles; I'm comfortable with the $30 loss.

>>32718212
Absolutely will be getting the reinforcement plate done. Looks odd without one.

>>32718234
I have no experience with AK's so unless you mean full auto (pls no), what about it is full retard?

>>32718273

No giggle switch, not many people take off the trigger guard to replace it with the correct one. I converted 2 is why ill get rid of one

>>32718182
Not that slim actually, as long as you don't mind paying the NO LONGER IMPORTED tax. Cunts bought up saigas by the dozens when the executive orders were released and they've been sitting on them ever since. They're starting to sell them now because they know they can't price gouge for much longer

>>32718273

If you want a 5.45 AK why not just buy a new one? Both atlantic and k-var have the 104-31 in stock and if you can't afford it they both offer layaway.

>>32718317

>>32718015
If it doesn't trigger you that it's not a correct akm then go for it, it will by all standards be a much better rifle than anything you can get near that price point and above. People here get so caught up in being super autistically correct with their builds they forget to actually have fun with their rifles and end up being like hardcore sjw liberals, throwing autistic shitfits over the smallest minutia

>>32718388
Not a big deal for me, I'll probably end up turning it into some kind of Rob Ski style monstrosity anyway. I'd like to have an as close as possible to true AKM some day, but this is definitely not it. Got a 5.45 already and this seems like a good addition.

>>32718388
>he's not autistic about every small detail

Arsenal guy said he just had to remove the sling loop and that the retainer is still there. Eh.

>>32718475
Don't do it unless he wants to include the optic so you can fund fixing that shit

Fired my SLR104 for the first time today. Literally, unironically, better than sex. I fucking love that gun and bought a shit ton of 5.45 right after I got home. I have nearly double the amount of 5.45 as all my other ammo types.

>>32713510
I think marylandcucks have been okay'd for 74's now. Get an Arsenal

>>32718479
Dude same, except I already have 3k rounds so I didn't buy more. But it's great

>>32718478
I think you guys are overestimating the value of my PTR. The Arsenal is already $100 more expensive new, as well as having a $200+ forend on it that I will get rid of. I don't like it and I'm still undecided, but I could probably get over the sling loop depending on how it was done.

>>32718493
I'm still kinda getting started building my ammo cache. After this purchase I have ~1700 rounds, and roughly 1200 of 7.62x39 and 5.56. I exaggerated a bit by saying "nearly double", my bad

>>32718479
What was sexy about it? I kind of find it boring compared to 7.62

I really, really like it, as did everyone else at the Florida /k/ meet. The typical comment was "it doesn't feel as fat as it looks". We put about 800 rounds through it, threw it in a puddle and raked it through the muddy water on both sides then shot all thirty rounds through it without any malfunctions (I guess the bolt not locking back due to fine grit sand counts as a malfunction). It continued to shoot for the rest of the day without any other issue than the bolt locking back and the safety becoming hard as fuck to deactivate (strangely enough it was still easy to put on safe).

Really, really neat gun and I do not regret owning it. The recoil impulse is also weird yet really interesting.

>>32722613
So you're afraid of getting a lemon? I guess you will never be buying a rifle from any company ever. Arsenal sure as hell isn't infallible, but they make the best factory AK-74s that are readily available in the US.

>>32722641
>who makes a good 74u kit?
Tula

Asking if you need special tools shows that you're not going to be able to build one yourself, so you'd have to pay to have someone build it for you. It'd be cheaper to just SBR an SLR104UR

You need a press and a few hundred dollars in specialized jigs and tools if you want to get into AK building. Not worth it for a single kit, and you sure as hell wouldn't want to start with a $1600 Tula krink kit.

Just don't fuck animals in generation is what I was getting at, if you do you ironically deserve a slow a painful death.

Have you read the account of the guy who fucked a dolphin? If not google it.

TFW your breath froze to the side of your rk in -30C
TFW hardly ever jammed even though it had been abused by conscripts every year since the year 1970.
TFW your RK had been swimming in the swamp shit and after cleaning the barrel and lock it shot like the day it had been built.
pictured RK62 with a new pistol grip and a hand guard
Good memories t 1/16 conscript

Sound fake and gay. I know the woman that tried to train a dolphin and flooded her lab, eventually giving the dolphin handjobs and stuff.

Our politicians are trying to trick us into paying a hell of a lot more for driving and trying to sell the roads to a company ("Owned by government"). Same shit happened with electric grip and now its hella expensive.
We were promised beer over 4,7% would be in stores after 1.1.2017. Would you guess that that hasnt happened.
At least they havent come for our guns for a while.
This is the main driver of that road renewal. She got Finnish nationality like 2 weeks before becoming an MP. ((((She)))) is Swiss and was also part of the childrens hospital organization, which got donations from the citizens (enough to build a hospital) and the land to build it on from the main hospital. Now it rakes in 24M annually as rent from the hospital.
Fuck.

I've heard the stories that trainers working at marine parks had to give the male dolphins handjobs or they wouldn't do anything for them.

So now I am wondering if I should look for a woman who works or worked at Sea World, because I will know she doesn't mind touching dicks, and will probably have a nice enough body to look hot in a wetsuit.
