>Magpul stock/pistol grip
>Tapco muzzle brake/magazines
>wood lower handguard (the Russian laminate color)/cheese grater upper handguard
>Midwest Industries side mount rail
Did I do good? I'll do a before/after when it all arrives, here's the before picture though. All shitty Tapco stuff.

Oh, and this is my first time I've done this sort of thing so go easy on me.

If curious the magpul stuff is Zhukov/MOE AK+ respectively, and the Tapco is slotted. Handguard comes from Khyber Customs and I don't know much about the rail but it was the one everyone was reviewing on YouTube. From start to finish it took me two days.

At the end of it all, my total was $405. Tried buying everything I could from MidwayUSA to save money on shipping. I was gifted the AK, so that helped tremendously. Would've gotten a better muzzle device but I was aiming for ≈$400 and decided the $20 one was better than not having one at all. Most expensive items were the handguard upper/lower ($100), rail ($100), and zhukov stock ($100).

Lastly, fuck you /akg/ for not replying to my post and forcing me make this thread.

Not mine (shit hasn't arrived yet) but here's an image of one I found that it should look similar to if you ignore the magazines/optic/muzzle device. Pretty aesthetic IMO. /k/'s opinion?

That's funny, I was actually gonna do one of those with magpul. You guys talked me out of it.
>>34362903
magpul is good man, and tapco sucks dick I agree (which is why I'm getting rid of an all tapco AK) but spending 40 bucks on tapco shit I'm planning to replace later is perfectly fine in my book.

This. OP, you're changing the stock and the fucking muzzle device. These things are going to affect the rifle's performance with you more than anything else.

>>34362946
>>34362962
I made this thread because I mostly wanted instant gratification in the looks department. Of course it'll shoot great, it's a WASR and I have a $100 stock. What do you guys think of the material, brands etc I picked out? Anybody have experience with how hot cheese grater handguards get? Is a wood lower better than a plastic one? Stuff like this.
>>
>>34362999
If you wanted kudos for looks you should of kept the original wood. you bubbad that poor rifle.

>Looks dept

You'll get just about the same kind of reception that I did.

I don't know much about the Zhukov stock other than what I saw AKOU do with one. The hinge was shown to be a weak spot when the stock is folded.

Grip is gud to go and maybe one of the best things ever made for the US AK market.

>Is a wood lower hg better than plastic
That depends. The wood is going to hold heat, and plastic won't. My WASR sports all wood furniture again, with the lower being a Romy donkey dick that I trimmed to a shark fin grip. It holds heat a little too well for my liking but there's nothing to be done about that except to wear gloves.

>I was gifted the AK
Impossible, I'm not a time traveller
>>34363241
I saw that vid too, the car test. Basically any side folding stock won't survive a tire though.
And you have an awesome looking AK

Why the fuck is your rear sight adjusted to the max distance? Jesus christ. Also remove all that shitty furniture. The only tapco thing that's acceptable is the G2 trigger.

I agree it looks like shit, I thought you were talking about the new one. What do you think of that?
>>34363992
I have no idea how sighting/zeroing works, I'm a relatively new shooter. I just put it at the very top so you could see over the shitty tapco rail.

looks alright now to be honest, although i don't know if i can say the same for the foregrip

WHY YOU WANT RAIL FOR KALASHNIKOV? IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH AS PROCURED FROM IZHEVSK MECHANICAL WORKS? YOU THINK NEEDS IMPROVEMENT? THEN MAYBE YOU FIND JOB WITH ARMY OF RUSSIA! YOU HAVE DRINKS WITH MIKHAIL KALASHNIKOV, TRADE STORY OF MANY WEAPONS DESIGNED AND DETAILS OF SCHOOL FOR ENGINEERING!

OR MAYBE YOU NOT DO THIS. PROBABLY IS BECAUSE YOU NEVER DESIGN WEAPON IN WHOLE LIFE. YOU LOOK AT FINE RUSSIAN RIFLE, THINK IT NEED CRAZY SHIT STICK ON ALL SIDES OF WEAPON. YOU HAVE DISEASE OF AMERICAN CAPITALIST, CHANGE THING THAT IS FINE FOR NO REASON EXCEPT TO LOOK DIFFERENT FROM COMRADE. YOU PUT CHEAP FLASHLIGHT OF CHINESE SLAVE FACTORY ON ONE SIDE, YOU PUT BAD SCOPE OF AMERICAN MIDDLE WEST ON OTHER SIDE, YOU PUT FRONT PISTOL GRIP ON BOTTOM SO YOU ARE LIKE AMERICAN MOVIE GUY JOHN RAMBO. MAYBE YOU PUT SEX DILDO ON TOP TO FUCK YOURSELF IN ASSHOLE FOR MAKING SHAMEFUL TRAVESTY OF RIFLE OF MIKHAIL KALASHNIKOV, NO?

RIFLE IS FINE. YOU FUCK IT, IT ONLY GET HEAVY AND YOU STILL NO HIT LARGEST SIDE OF BARN. GO TO FIRING RANGE, PRACTICE WITH MANY MAGAZINE OF CARTRIDGE. THEN YOU NOT NEED DUMB SHIT PUT ON SIDE OF RIFLE.

>>
>>34364067
Well you need a tool to adjust the front sight left or right if it's off. The rear sight you elevate up or down. Since you are probably not shooting shit 300 meters away set it the 100 meter notch. Make sure to get good mags and by good mags I mean metal mags or metal reinforced. Stay away from magpul mags and tapco.
>>
>>34365589
How do I know if the front sight is off? And why are plastic mags off?
>>
>>34362999
Well nogga it looks ugly.and not because im a nyet rifle is fine type of guy.you went the bubba route instead of going full tactinerd/russiaboo. shit taste waste of money.
>>
>>34366900
what does "bubba" mean? Like a mix of both?

For those not in the know, if you're looking for a good(but expensive) folding stock look at the bone steel arms/CNC warrior stock. Very good folding stock option.

>>34362677
If you want plastic tacticool on your AK, I'd suggest MagPul entirely over Tapco, except maybe mags, they do those alright.

For muzzle device, I'd suggest a birdcage flash hider.

bubba is when someone fucks up a rifle to "make it better"
Examples include: That SKS that had an acog attached with a fuckton of jb-weld, home done-sawn off mosins with AR pistol grips glued, that scope that was ziptied to a rifle(? may have been a shotgun) that was taken to a cabelas to be sighted in
