>>34156924
That was an Warsaw Pact invasion.

>>34156924
Will Wasr prices go down? Like 500$ or Less? Also has anyone bought a Wasr from Atlantic recently If so was the gun good to go? Any problems with it?

>>34156948
Dont expect to ever see AKs sub 500 again.
At least not imports. I'm sure US made AKs will get to that point. And they're gonna be sure to keep WASRs and imports higher than their own guns to keep there POS47 competitive.

>>34157001
>>34156948
Haha, you cucks paying over $500 for a gun that's only worth 15 bucks. Just give it time and WASR prices will eventually settle back down to $95 like they used to be.

>>34157015
haha yep i remember in 1600's when aks were 4 silver pieces

>>34157030
Psshtt, where were you when they were a bag of turnips and the price of a chicken

>>34156948
You can still occasionally find non-matching beat up WASRs that are still fully functional for like $400-500 on gunbroker.

But if you want to buy from a store expect to pay $700-800

>>34157015

>>34157001

Unfortunately it's a firey burning piece of flaming shit garbage.

No, theyre all shit. WASR is your best bet. Just wait for a good price.

IO and RAS47.
But they're notoriously bad/will explode in your hands.

I've seen two WASRs go for under $500 on gunbroker in the past two days.
Just slightly rusty.

Bide your time, wait for a deal online, and be ready to work with some steel wool and oil.

Shitty extractors. Although theyre owned by PSA now. Or owned ny the same peaople as PSA.
PSA probably has the best US made AK and theyre expanding their options this year. I know they have a triangle folder on the way and I think even a 545 gun. Just make sure its a gen 2. I just sold off my gen 1.

So I found a great price for an SLR 104fr that I am skeptical about. I've already messaged the dude and what not and his reason for the price is his health condition which I find understandable and reasoned. So my question to you guys is how do I conduct the money transfer between him and I? This is the first time I've tried to buy online and I don't want to get scammed. I already know about needing an FFL and shit.

>>34157417
I don't think I'll risk it but it's an option

>>34157425
Not saying it's definite but health reasons often indicate a scam

>>34156924
How's the PSAK47?
Was gonna build one.

>>34157448
You get what you pay for but it should work. Make sure you choose the forged one and don't get rused

>>34157425
How good is this said deal, if it's to good to be true it probably is...

>>34157448
It's the best US option

does anyone know if the average sks is more accurate than the average wasr?

>>34157646
Depends on the shooter.

>>34157646
On average, yes.
But it's also longer and heavier.

?
Why do you keep posting this photo?

>>34157646
Sight radius probably has more to do with it. It makes it easier to shoot better.
Ammo brands used are probably the other important thing. Finding what your gun like can tighten things up quite a bit.

>>34157646
yes, but the average SKS also has a 20" barrel (compared to the average AK, which usually has a 16" barrel)

>>34158196
Barrel length is not directly correlated to mechanical accuracy

>>34158224
yes it is because the gun is 4" closer to its target

>>34158196
>>34158224 this
correlation is not causation

>>34158224
*personally* my 2 SKSes have been more accurate but thats anecdotal- and yes I'm aware the tilting bolt lockup should technically lend itself to being less accurate, but again as far as I can say the barrel length makes a slight difference

I can't speak for aks in 762x39, but between my vz85 and sks, they might as well be identical accuracy wise.
But, ammo makes a difference. My scoped vz58 was all over the place with silver bear, felt like it was barely minute of paper at 100 yards. First shots after changing back to golden tiger again, and pic related are the first 5 shots.
I've heard some people's guns shoot worse with it, but mine love it.

Do I know for a fact on anything you just asked? Nah, but I'd say those rifles don't take AK furniture and that the side mount rail probably won't fit on there considering the receiver's shape.

Buying a WASR from a friend of mine. He's only put 300 rounds for it. What kind of mileage should I expect out of it? What are some decent upgrades if any to get more out of it?

>>34160934
Ammo and magazines. Rifle is good to go.

>>34160934
They're fairly good to go.
Not a whole lot extra can be done.

Many WASRs last past 80,000-100,000 rounds until failure, and at that point you can just replace the bolt/trunnion/barrel.

Unless you shoot it super duper often or rent it out at a range it'll probably outlive you.

Some kind of cheap semi-gloss engine enamel. Looking at it now I wish I would have used a flatter black, but its a decent enough finish. Better than what it was before for sure.

Can someone explain how painting metal AK magazines/metal in general works?

I want to paint mine OD green but I'm not sure what type of spray paint people use to actually stick to metal/prevent rust.

>>34163501
Rustoleum

>>34163518
>Rustoleum
Is that sold at walmart?
And is that just the base coat, or do they sell it in colored paint?

>>34163501
stripping it with a solvent first tends to help

>>34163523
Home Depot
It's just a better spray paint. I use it for mags, the wheels on my truck, my desk.
It will chip some but youre gonna get that with any spray paint. But it seems to keep rust out.

>>34163564
These mags are kinda pieces of shit externally.
Got them from Bake.

I intend to elbow grease the rust off with steel wool and then spray paint over it with something that will refinish it.

It's less for fashion and more of a necessity.

>>34163612
Those texts look like some cringy shit out of a 14 y/os fanfic holy shit

>>34164612

Its price is your integrity. Through a loophole in the law, purchasing assault weapons from the regime of the Russian Federation.

The price is your family members watching the news, and like any normal human would, weeping for the victims of massacres in Syria. But they also have to live with the knowledge that your funds helped make it happen, by buying that assault weapon.

guys, where's the best place to learn more about the ak, and other kalashnikov-type rifles? I have two AK's so far, and I think I have the disease. They look so fucking cool, feel great in the hand, shoot well, and require no maintenance.

Is there some site, or some book that could help me learn enough to become an /AKG/-tier autist?

Pic related, just got it back last week.

>>34166242
That's why I sold mine.
They may be shit. But they are the best US made AK. Which isnt saying much of anything. At least they dont blow up like IO and RAS47

>>34166604
True. They'd actually be pretty good if PSA could get their QC together. Mine looks and feels fantastic. Easily on par with arsenal as far as fit and finish. But the headspace was fucked and it just soured the whole gun for me even after I sent it back and it was fixed.

I had to do that when I first put my rifle together.
Had to hammer the bolt home and hammer it back out. But after the first round fired, everything was golden.
But the gen 1 was all cast so I sold it to some mexicans for $500.

Rivets on my sar are cracked and ugly. Machining is as rough if not rougher than the maadi. Maadi seems more accurately gased too. They are both great rifles, but IMO the maadi is better build. Both function as rifle very well tho.

>>34167173
For the most part yes. My opinion is based on the rifles ive personally used and shot. Gookfoot has both a sar and maadi too, id say the same for his rifles. Maadi>sar.

Weren't Bulgaria and Romania also really close with the Soviets? I could see Czechoslovakia, Poland, and Hungary rebelling eventually but the other two I'm pretty sure were solidified as Soviet puppets.

SVD, cause it's an actual precision rifle while the PSL is a glorified RPK.

Neither. SVD are pricey unless you got money and PSL aint that great compared to a VEPR.

Actually, please go to precision rifle general.
They'll be happy to tell you all the reasons that SVD isn't a precision rifle.

>>34168895
Shoot of the three I bought I threaded them all on my gun and kept the worst one that didn't thread on all the way and with the most surface rust. The one I sent you and the other one I kept threaded on fine and were the same condition wise, just the one i kept had goopy paint runs which I liked. It might be your threads on your rifle cuz it fit on mine no problem

>>34168895
What rifle ?

>>34169005
It probably is my threads, since mine are part of a pressed-on sleeve. I had to have them turned down once already just to fit my US-made brake after the sleeve swelled a bit. It'll go on there, but it's much grittier and more resistant to threading on than the US brake, so I just took it back off and put my US one on for the time being. I can always mess with it later. Thanks for getting the parts for me regardless.

>>34168979

My commentary must have really gotten under your skin to have triggered such a reaction. Maybe it was because it called attention to how you've never shot an SVD and also aren't aware of how accurate they can be with 7n1.

I still need to get to an outdoor range and test fire it there so I can make sure the sleeve is on firmly enough that it won't go flying after a magazine, but I've been working on pistol stuff at the indoor range I've got a membership at instead. I could take the Maadi to the indoor range too, but in a worst-case scenario where the sleeve and brake go flying, there's no chance I'll be allowed downrange to pick it up.

My opinion of it is about the same as 762x39. It's a nice mix of power in a small package.
I'd rather have 6.5 than 556 or 545 for those reasons.
but I'd have to shoot it myself to assess it's mud busting potential and see how fun it is vs my steel targets etc. I think it could potentially become my new favorite intermediate though.
Might be a fun excuse to get vepr #4, so long as it comes in one of the rpk handguard and folder stock configurations.
