This OP brought to you by SGAmmo.com, the only place you'll get Golden tiger and other meme brands because we've convinced you that one type of cheap Russian or Ukie shit steel case is different than the other.

I always thought sealed Wolf was a meme since I bought some MC that wasn't sealed, but was advertised as so. Is this shit any good?

>>34561358
I bought a bunch of it in 5.45 and it's alright. Wish I had spent the money on GT 5.45 though.

Ok so I asked about an extractor claw for my Saiga 7.62 in the last thread, now I'm thinking that since ive already got $850+ wrapped up in this rifle if I should just cut my losses sell it and get an arsenal. Unless it would be better to bite the turd and track one down and probably end up going well over $900 wrapped up in it. Thoughts? I don't want to fall into a money trap with this, its used and I thought there wouldnt be anything wrong with it when I got it, so there may be some more shit that I'm yet to find.

>>34561358
the lacquer jams up my vepr

>>34561360
>GT
That's what my current stock is, but I'm willing to buy a few boxes of sealed Wolf to test, and see how it stacks up.

>>34561365
Yeah, people have reported similar stuff. Your VEPR has a spring loading firing pin, right? When I had my Maadi inspected I casually brought up spring loaded firing pins on the VEPR's and Bugly SLR-107fr's explaining that the lacquered ammo causes issues and he just looked at me like I was retarded.

>>34561363
What's wrong with it? What are you trying to get out of your rifle?

>$90 for a Bulgarian bakelite bayo

>>34561365
Wolf has been using a polymer coating for about five years now. How old is your ammo?

>>34561343

>Ukranian ammo

Ukrop ammo hasn't been imported for like 8+ months.


but yep, its all the same shit minus casing coating.

>>34561383
Look at the OP picture you fucking underage nogunz faggot. SGAmmo specially imports/orders Wolf ammo with the lacquer case coating and the colored lacquer primer and case head seals

>Just reposting a question from the end of last thread.

Do any of you accidentally bump fire a second round every once in a while or is it just me?

I have maybe one out of every 250 rounds. I know I need to work on my trigger discipline, but I'm just curious how common it is for others.

>>34561419
I've done that before when shooting from a bench/rest if I don't have the rifle shouldered properly, it's more of an issue of that rather than trigger control

What are med-high level options for 0-300yard optics for 7.62x39?

Honestly I can't decide between red dot and magnified, but I'm leaning to simple red dot.

>>34561376
I took it to the range for the first time yesterday and the ejection pattern was random as fuck, it had a failure to eject at least once per mag, sometimes two or three, I used 3 different ammo brands and 4 different mags.

I bought it used but the piston was mirror clean so I doubt it was used much if at all. Got it for $680, plus another $150 in converting the rear end and I'm sitting at just over $800, which a set of surplus wood for it put me at ~850. I dont dislike my rifle, its just that right now I have a bad feeling about where this might go and I'm having a smidge of buyers remorse. And if I swap it for one of the new 107s I can get the front end that I want along with a warranty.

>>34561531
Failure to eject or extract? Failures to eject usually have something to do with the extractor or how gassed the rifle is, not the extractor.

>>34561539
I dont know, but the recoil was fairly stout, more so than my fathers mak90 with the same furniture. I figured it was because stamped vs milled and his is heavier, but what do you think?

>>34561462
I'll keep that in mind.

Thanks.

Ok, 3rd party here.
Is this your first AK?
Just curious.

>>34561818
Yes it is.

>>34561820
Ok, cool.
What state are you in?
>It's hard as shit to diagnose issues over the internet.
That guy was/is doing his damnest though.
I'm going to go on a different tangent.
Was the bullet guide installed by you?
Or was it installed when you got it?

You are having issues with extraction, correct?
What mags are you using?

>>34561840
Florida, and the ramp was installed by me. I was using surplus Romanian steel mags.

>>34561847
Strictly Romy mags?
How many different mags?
2? 3?
And if you just rack it without firing, is there any issue with extraction?
>As in, rock in a loaded mag and just rack it repeatedly.
Will it empty a loaded mag (without firing, just cycling it)?

>>34561865
Just 4 romanian mags. Yes it can empty a mag, the rounds feed fine when just racking it, or I haven't had an issue yet and judging on the fact that I had one every 20 rounds or so when shooting I would think there would have been something by now.

>>34561876
Well shit.
What ammos?
You said 3 or 4 different ammos were tried.
Were they tried in the same session?
Do you have access to other mags?

Don't give up on it just yet, because once you figure out what the problem is (and it's likely something seemingly insignificant too), it'll make that rifle that much more "yours"

>>34561936
One range trip and I used wolf polyformance 124g, brown bear 125g, and silver bear 125g. At least 120 rounds of each, I went through each mag 4 times and the failures happened at different round counts. I just got a bakelite today so I'll try that today and come back with the results.

>>34561957
In theory, the mag shouldn't matter, nor the ammo.
So I get the frustration.
And without observing it in person, I honestly couldn't attempt to diagnose your problem.
But I would be hesitant to think it's a gas issue.
Where in Florida are you?
Perhaps you can meet up with the one of the multiple anons in your state.
>not that they might be able to help, but it's not impossible.

>>34561999
I live in Lakeland. I haven't shot it before, or the mags, so I was hoping that it's the mags but honestly I don't know anymore. The failures were all spent casings getting stuck half way out or the bolt not closing all the way (racking it didn't pull the round out of the chamber, and it would close after I let it go)

>>34562256
For sure. I fall victim to it myself. Online shopping is an addiction for a lot of people. It gives you the same buzz that gamblers get. It's the anticipation leading up to the reward.

Did you know that when you pay for something in cash, your brain lights up the same was as if it were in pain? Not so with plastic. Which makes online shopping an even easier trap to fall into. It's also why you'll put money on a card at casinos to gamble with. So you're not constantly feeding bills into the machine and reminding yourself of how much money you're spending. Or so the stack of chips just looks like some colorful plastic and not an entire day's worth of work.

Social media is the same way. Posting something and then waiting in anticipation for how many likes/comments/(You)s you get.

While I'll agree with you there, I do it in less than 10 mins in my aks... I'm not paying the same or more per round to make 100% unnecessary extra work for myself and have any nagging worry in the back of my head should I not be able to touch a gun for a few months.

AK building faggot here.

1. It looks really dirty. Try cleaning the bolt and trunnion, especially the parts where they touch right inside the grooves where the bolt engages the trunnion.

2. It almost looks like the lower rail doesn't match up with the groove in your trunnion. If that surface doesn't run completely flat, the bolt can get stuck right there or need unnecessary extra force to open and close.

Based on the fact that these failures happen sporadically, I really think it just needs a nice detail clean and lube.

If it persists, ride the bolt back and forth slowly or quickly and see if it hangs up anywhere along the path. If it hangs up on the hammer, this isn't really a problem, but if it hangs up somewhere else, then you should look into why.

What do I do about a rifle with no muzzle threads?
I've heard pin-on AK74 muzzle brakes fly off.

>>34568218
If you want to use a surplus 74 compensator you'll have to press your cucked fsb off and put the correct fsb on that accepts 24mm threads. Bulgarian is your best/cheapest option for both the fsb and compensator. If you don't have an accessory lug you can press the gas block off while your doing all this and replace it with one that has it

Don't get her a gift that's actually just something you want. If she wanted an AK she'd already be looking into getting one for herself. She'll just end up shooting it because she feels obligated to humor you. Don't try and force your hobby on your girlfriend. If she wants to get involved, she'll take the initiative.

>>34569511

Giving your GF something an illiterate african would wield is an insult. At least get her a handgun of some quality, not one of your vatnik slavshit hand-me-downs.

>shoot them
Oh, we will...

>>34570107
He likes it much better, the trigger is far better than the P30 which is ridiculous that such an expensive hammer fired gun could have that bad of a single action break. P30 was too problematic with not locking back on the last round due to the size and positioning of the slide release. Neither one of us could shoot it and have it lock open on the last round without a very awkward grip. Also the reliability was spotty and I considered the finish on the small parts to be sub-par.

pls no bully, I'm going to put a polish bolt carrier in it.

>>34562040

If this is the case the best he can do is to take a brass chamber brush(or any brass cleaning brush that snuggly fits in the chamber) and attach it to a drill with a couple of cleaning rods. Start it spinning as slow as you can and then work up to a moderate speed.
Make sure you use a decent amount of oil if you try this and spin it the correct direction or you'll unscrew the brush.
Also you are very likely to fuck up the brush/cleaning rods while doing this so use cheap ones you dont care about.
Good luck. Hope it helps.

>>34572516
Probably not a good idea.

>>34572673
Whens the last time you heard of a stamped rifle not being durable?

>>34572722
I'm not saying stamped guns aren't durable but a rifle constructed out of a solid chunk of steel is going to be better built than one made out of stamped parts.

>>34572653
Not him, but the front trunions are usually cast too. And while casting isn't all that bad if done properly, parts like the bcg and front trunion should be milled/forged. And they use roll pins where solid pins should be. Crappy riveting work. Etc. Io Inc is a bad company. Sell the gun, get something better, and well known.

>>34572728
This isn't an IO. It's a C39V2

>>34572727
Yeah, in the same way that a shithouse made of cast concrete with rebar with a steel blast door will be more durable than one built out of brick and mortar. There is such a thing as overkill.
If you're going for accuracy you should be buying an M10X anyway. M+M promises 1MOA or better with golden tiger out of the box.

Has to be on the receiver with the required info. Usually to the rear near the trunnion is a common spot.

>>34573305
Same, as much as people bash IO, I think the only AK kaboom I've ever seen from a factory gun is the one in the M74 video.

>>34573359
Idk, last one I saw on AKfiles was like 45 which is why I was considering it

So I know milled receivers won't accept stamped furniture and vice versa; however, my father and I jimmied some furniture to fit his stamped AK. It fit like shit but it fit and stayed fit. With some modification and some tlc could I get a set to fit decently and properly?

What brands of handguards will fit a VEPR?

>>34573586
Yeah, you should be able to. It'll involve fuckery with bedding material or a dremel tool.

>>34573586
Why not just buy a stamped set?

>>34573586
There's an anon here with a milled set on his saiga, he got it to fit nice and it looks pretty good

>>34573602
Because I already have two really nice stamped sets that I put a lot of time and energy into and I dont want to get rid of them.

>>34573009
I was under the influence that the engraving don't had to be of a certain size, like .325" or some shit, no?

>>34573685
Size and depth, mine is the minimum of both specifications

>>34573692
Neat I'll have to dig up the spec, that's pretty discrete

>>34573602
I meant milled, we put stamped furniture in his milled AK.

Carolina Shooter's supply is a good source. Check there.

At least yours with your last name sounds cool and is an alliteration, if it were me it'd sound really dumb cuz I've got a boring last name

>>34573461
Yeah they're usually like $35-$45, I listed one of mine for $30 and it sold in a few minutes

>>34573869
Maybe I'll put it up for 45 shipped then. Pay for the bipod adapter

>>34573869
You know Chimps last name? What is it?

Yeah I'd do that. I wish I would have listed mine a little higher but it was the one I had in the worst condition so I thought it'd be a fairer price, but no I should have asked for more

>>34573934
I'm sworn to secrecy, just like how I can't tell you his social security number either

If I do the curse will set in and my AKs will turn to sand and my peepee will fall off

>>34573396
Is the i.o. hate exaggerated? Or do they really come apart after 500 rounds
