Thinking of trading my SAR-2 for a guy's SAR-3 to hedge against an eventual Russian ammo import ban, even if 5.56 is currently a little more expensive than 5.45.

With Red Army Standard bringing it in now, I'm hoping they'll get Vympel to make a few other loadings.
I'd like to see their HP, and maybe some of the 9x18.

Also, Since /brg/is never around when I need them. What's a good optic for PTR-91? Preferably 1-6x or similar and doesnt impeded HK slap.

Thanks for the heads up but they are the standard rolled edged version

Zasta, how is your DP coming along? I'm really toying with picking one up sometime down the road after I get an AUG. Usually I don't care too much about semi machine gun builds but a semi DP/DPM doesn't seem that bad, plus they're cool

GT comfirmed for the least consistent 5.45 by akou.

Sure, but if it gets banned and Zastava picks up the slack I'm 90% sure it won't be 20 cents per round.
It'd be nice to have an AK I could crossload with my AR if I'm paying 25+cpr anyway.

I don't think what he has pictured is what he has for sale though (picture looks like a Saiga top cover). You can ask him if you want.

>>34703494
Light primer strikes and FTF on a surprising amount of the ammo. My AR wouldn't shoot it and my AK had 6 or 7 out of 30.

>>34703432

I swear the Brown Bear I get from Academy on clearance is the best 5.45 I've used. Silver bear is a close second though.

I had a similar line of thinking when I got this slr 106. The sar 3 can use the steel East German mags unmodified but I have to remove some material from the frot to get it to seat right. One nice thing about the East German mags compared to the circle 10 polys, aside from the classic look. Is that they are slightly smaller and are roughly the same size as an ar15 mag so it fits in my Alice pouches.

>>34704568
Also is there any type of optic or mount that won't interfere with the folding stock?

>>34704553
Do you have an ffl ?

>>34704578
Anything that doesnt mount to the side rail.

>>34703794
They're still clearing out boxes of 30 for $6.48 where they have it, but it's being replaced by boxes of 20 for $5.99.

>>34703432
wrong, 7n6 was worse.

>>34704725
So anything that would keep the old school Soviet Afghan war look look like a PSO or PKA won't let the stock lock to the side?

>>34704074
About how much do you have into just one of your DPs? I wouldn't be able to reweld so I'd have to either pay someone else for it or get another receiver. From what I've seen the kits aren't terribly expensive at around $400-$500 depending on where you look, receiver from SMG is around $800, barrel from SMG is around $300, and even buying complete DPMs from SMG isn't terribly expensive in the grand scheme of things at $2800 or so considering how much it'd cost to have someone build one

I'm just really itching for a cool semi auto machine gun, either a ZB26 or Bren would be cool but a DP28/DPM seem to be easier to get and also cheaper while being just about as cool

>>34704816
Think about where the optic mounts and where the stock folds to

Can y'all tell what this is?
Doesn't look like an NPAP, but I'm not sure if I see a bulged trunnion or not.

>>34704816
Not unless you have a right side folder. Like a wire folder.

>>34704724
No unfortunately.

>>34704823
Should be about $850ea when I'm done and sell leftover parts. I highly recommend a semi lmg they're a blast, but not building it yourself is expensive, right now DPs are "cheap" and you can get all the parts from SMG currently which is a plus. When I got mine SMG wasn't building or making semi parts for a couple years.

I wish I could build it myself but I lack everything from skills to knowledge to tools for it. The DPs are really tempting because like you said they're cheap and everything needed is available from SMG and honestly they're one of the few semi auto LMGs I'd actually want, they're really cool guns

Was gonna say i really love my valmet, had an m78 in 308 before but traded for this one cause its select fire. Imo the only acceptable 5.56 ak, the finns did it right. Smooth as fuck to shoot on full auto too, cause the stock is inline with the bore theres very little muzzle rise, just a gentle backwards push. I think if you got the cash valmets are really worth it, definitely worth it from a collectors standpoint too

Interesting.
I had been considering the PA 1-6x with ACSS reticle but this also looks good. Definitely wont interfere with HK slap but I dont't know if I want to give up variable power. Than again I would probably only use it as 1x or 6x anyways.

>>34706704
Looks like a converted Saiga. Someone threw an AR stock and grip adapter on it but that can be undone.

>>34706719
By converted, does that mean that it would take a normal AK buttstock and pistol grip without any expensive alterations?

>>34706734
You will probably have to buy a pistol grip screw and nut, and you won't be able to put regular AK handguards on there without doing a "Saiga front end conversion"

Why not just buy one from 2 Rivers? Can't be much more than getting an OPAP and having it converted or a kit built.

Where are AK-12 handguards being sold?

So what do you guys do when you want to shoot steel with your 74? you use Hornady or just whatever you have and you don't give a shit? I really want to shoot steel with it but Hornady is the only stuff I can find that's lead core and it's expensive.

>>34708291
Everything except 7N6 is lead core.

>>34708299
Wait really, that's true? so what do you guys recommend as the go-to 5.45x39 caliber? I want to take it to 2-gun events. I was just scared they're gonna magnet test it and tell me to fuck off.

>>34708080
If you need to ask then you don't need them.

>>34708333
>>34708299
That doesn't mean that there isn't steel in the projectile that will damage the targets my dudes. Virtually all 5.45x39 except Hornady has a bit-metal jack of copper and steel with a lead core. Hornady is the only stuff without any sort of steel in the projectile.

>>34708374
Shit... so i'm probably going to have to suck it up and buy the Hornady stuff.

>>34708333
If you are at an outdoor range that says no steel you need to find another range and never return. They have literally zero reason to ban it.

>>34707801
i tried to find pricing but they dont have any up and im too busy during the day to call and ask what it would go for.

>>34708408
But if you're shooting their steel targets can't having steel in the bullet damage their targets more then the lead stuff?

Most of the outdoor ranges around me I bring my own targets and I set up paper and i'll shoot whatever I want at that. But I want to get into competitions and I think most ranges have a policy that you can't use any sort of steel in the bullet against their targets cause they will wear them down faster. Please correct me if i'm wrong on anything.

Is this an alright deal or naw?

Was thinking about buying an ak pistol and I find this 10.5" draco and I'm about to order when I see it's US made. Did I just dodge a bullet here? Also m92 vs draco, I like the standard handguard compatibility and thread pitch of the draco but the m92 is better built it seems.

>>34709253
Century is now making a US made AK pistol they're calling a Draco. The actual Romanian Draco's are GTG, the US made "Draco"s are literally RAS-47's with short barrels, combo fsb/gas block, and no stock.

>>34710089
The original bolt carrier was so poorly machined that it inhibited reliable function of the rifle. I fiddled with it, got it working a bit better but I couldn't reach all the material that had to be taken off with a dremel so it still had issues and instead of taking it to a gunsmith I bought a new bolt carrier. The new bolt carrier was wonky tonky and was doing what you see in the pic because the guides/whatever for the material on the bolt carrier were cut short so it was hoping out of the rails a bit so instead of dicking around with it or taking it to a gunsmith I just put a buffer in that prevents the bolt carrier from moving far enough back to jump off the rails.

My WASR 10/63 did the exact same thing (carrier jumping the rails if you pull the charging handle with downward pressure). You can fix it by swapping recoil spring assemblies until you find one that works just right, or by putting more of a bevel on the area in pic related.

Recoil buffers solve the problem too, but bring their own issues.

>>34710145
>I memba, good job for doing good off hand gunsmithing anon, have a rare Ian
What? Anyway, I think I'm going to just admit defeat and take the rifle with the original bolt carrier to a gunsmith and have them clean up the cam channel since the idea of having that buffer in muh rifle disgusts me. I'll just shoot it with the buffer and new bolt carrier to make sure it's the bolt carrier that's the problem and not something else. At this point I've spent as much time and money dicking around with it as it would take to have just gone to a gunsmith, tell them what I think is the problem, and have them fix it.

My very first gun, a Marlin 980S, bought used right next to UT Austin on my 19th birthday back in I think late 2009. My parents were appalled that years and years of trying to steer me away from guns had failed, and since then their failure in that respect has only become exponentially more apparent (though I've convinced my dad at least to start shooting on occasion now).

I really wish I could've gotten into guns earlier, but I never had the money to get super serious about it until around 2012, and we all know how that year went.

The shiny areas were too high and were causing too much friction which would prevent the bolt carrier and bolt to lock up/travel all the way.

Mine is doing it with a new bolt carrier, wasn't doing it with the old.

I didn't know that. Doesn't change the value though since the (10)s are only part of it because he wanted me to throw 2 extra plums in, and I got the plums for $20.

wow that looks like shit, horrible quality, that makes my 1943 wartime rush mosin look fancy.

Are all AK bayonets (except for actual AK47 bayonets) able to be used on different AK models without problem?

Also do they make good utility knives?

AKM and AK74 bayonets can be used on both.

>Also do they make good utility knives?
No, they don't hold an edge and are brittle. They are designed to stab, not be sharp and cut things with.

It truly is gypsy shit. Middle is Draco, far left is SLR-104FR, I believe.

>>34710347
In theory, yes.
In practice, not necessarily.

No. Get a knife if you want a knife, bayonets are for stabbing.

>re all AK bayonets (except for actual AK47 bayonets) able to be used on different AK models without problem?
AKM and AK-74 bayos are cross compatible
>Also do they make good utility knives?
They're shit. Don't hold an edge well, etc. Their wire cutting function with their scabbards are nice.
