stalker was a success, some weird sounding birds last night but no skinwalkers. Had to sneaky canoe around the wildlife officer on the way there and the way back but pretty sure he was just asleep in the patrol boat or watching tv on his phone. This islands totally uninhabited and a real bitch to get to, only "accessible" by canoe. It takes half an hour of skipping the canoe over mangrove and swamp weeds before you can reach shore. It's literally impossible for a boat with a motor to reach it, so wildlife officer or police couldn't get to you even if they wanted to. You'd need paratroopers or another retarded guy on a canoe to come get me. Might start bringing some pallets with me and build a permanent little base out here.

>>57854894
Was just looking at your thread, nicely done, very based. Used to be a lot of cool sites to stalk when I lived in Alabama but I'm down by the Everglades now so not many options. I'd go out in glades (not during summer) if I had an airboat and a fren to larp with down here. Its loaded with gators and snakes including pythons but there is solid ground out there to setup camp on. I'd only sleep on the ground with rotating watch. Would be pretty epic stalker challenge though.

--- 57859546
>>57859473
this dude said he got his rifle sent away like 5 months ago to fix those absolute shit done rivets and still continues to post that exact picture. I highly doubt he even got them fixed and he just said that to get people off his ass for buying/ making garbage.
--- 57859550
>>57856681
It is almost certainly foxes. Foxes make absolutely ghoulish sounds, and their vocal range goes from deep grunting to what sounds like women being stabbed to death. Plus they are stealthy and will just pop up in random places without you noticing, and ghost just as fast. On top of that, they have shockingly loud vocalizations.

Hello, fellow slavaboos. How much would y’all pay for an Izhevsk M91/59 Mosin in good shape but probably refinished? I know the M91/59 is relatively rare, so I expect a bit more than standard Mosin price.

Just got my pm90 back from NW gun supply. It's perfect bros. Romy chrome barrel, all matching. They really do some excellent work. Gonna go magdump it at a pile of trash tmrw.

--- 57861822
My first AK is on the way to my LGS. 

How badly would the Romanians turn in their graves if I put Soviet Russian furniture on my Romanian AK? The pettiness of eastern Europeans is a force only rivaled by the fury of the sun itself...
--- 57861864
>>57854764
Oh my fucking god thank you brother. That is way more affordable and will be perfect for larping while camping innawoods.
--- 57861954
Is there a way to properly shoulder my sk rifle and still use iron sights with muffs that I'd use from the range I go to. Or should I just get a mount and put a red dot on it?
--- 57862151

Thanks anon they really did it justice. Cleaned the rust out of the folding mechanism, painted every nook and cranny.

Correct it's the same guy, me. It's been 9 months though. I don't have any new pics yet but when I do the rivets are primo, I've seen em. In a previous /akg/ I summarized the plethora of issues this rifle has/had. On the bright side though, it SHOULD be done by Tuesday barring any more issues. Should.
I got a new phone and don't have any pictures either, no pics and no memes. Rip
--- 57862247
Are AKs still adequate for militaries? I've looked at the body of AK-12 that is going to get introduced to Russian, Indian etc. forces and the main body just looks like some prototype pried out of the hands of some ww2 corpse, selector and everything.

Went with plum ruskie furniture.
I using a green Bulgie sling but will get a Ruskie stag sling which looks like what you have.
Deciding on which type of paint ti use.
I'm leaning towards Brownells bake on gun kote.
I wanted to order some of the paint from russianpaint dot net to try but......... 
Get those dimple rivets fixed and then

I forgot what model it is, but I have an Arsenal US converted Saiga in 7.62x39 with a fixed stock that has never been shot. Is it worth more than any other stamped AK?
--- 57864043
>>57864019
Figure out what model it is you penis. If it's a slabside it's worth less. If it's dimpled it's worth more.

Pretty sure it’s dimpled.

--- 57864595
>>57864554
No man I really believe it shifted. The button is against the receiver to where it needs to be hammered with a punch now, no amount of kroil and cleaning has loosened it. But you are still half right the stock is ass and the bolt constantly walked out (2nd time it did with loc tite).
>>57864564
I do want one.
--- 57864627
haven't actually seen one even in pictures yet but do any anons have a Plum mold 88 mag? hopefully sending off my 1988 izzy kit soon and it'd be neat to get one for it.
--- 57864639
>>57864595
Reach out to Zastava USA and tell them about the broken stock and the button. They’ll most likely take care of it for you and give you a new stock too.
--- 57864665
>>57864595
damn son, that's brutal. haven't heard of that happening yet but like the other anon said, let them know and they should take care of you. common yugo L I suppose.

--- 57865127
>>57864098
cleaning gun and equipment after stalkering. dropped loaded magazine in lake and it completely filled with water. I shook the water out and just put it back in the pouch until I got back. Dried all the ammo, took apart the mag and dried it out, oiled the mag a little bit. Thank goodness that was using barnaul which has like an enamel over the steel case. Tula would;ve made such a bigger mess. None of my rounds rusted or varnished at all
--- 57865247
>>57864909
I haven't measured the trigger but it's really not that bad. Fitting the kit to the pistol is the tricky part, everything's a bit rattily for now. It looks like parts of the handguards have been filed by a previous owner so there's material missing.
--- 57865299
>>57865127
Love me Barnaul, I'll always prefer lacquer cases over the powdered shit. Also leaves the ammo equivalent to cheeto dust on your hands. I normally only buy the powder coated if I'm about to shoot all of it in not long after. Granted, that's more it's intention over being stored away for any length.
--- 57865341
>>57862502
I was tempted to join by getting the 5.56 but opted for a WBP 7.62 as my first

I'll give it a couple more months of field use by other anons before I'll get it, but I've only heard relatively positive things about it
--- 57865415
>>57864909
>>57864098
These complaints are why I started this trigger transfer bar from 1/16 steel. I cut a general shape and worked it down. The final connection to the trigger is done through a z shaped cam the transfers the front back motion to more of a front down pull. Technically i can use different lenghth "cams" for a different pull with this design.
--- 57865571
How much energy am I losing with a 12.5" 7.62x39 compared to a 16"? Compared to 5.56" out of a 14.5" is 7.62x39 out of a 12.5" going to net me any advantage?
--- 57865755
>>57865341
>Almost got the Pioneer 5.56 but got the 7.62 WBP instead
anon I think most here would agree you made the right choice
--- 57865772
>>57865571
Not much. 7.62x39 depends a lot less on barrel length for velocity than 5.56 does
--- 57865996
>>57865571
I read somewhere that 7.62x39 breaks down like this:
>SKS with a 20.5" barrel averages around 2400fps at the muzzle
>AK with a 16" barrel averages around 2350 FPS at the muzzle
>Draco with an 11.5" barrel averages around 2150 FPS at the muzzle 
>Mini Draco with a 7.5" barrel averages around 1950 FPS at the muzzle
It loses about 500 FPS when going from a full length rifle barrel to a short rifle/pistol length barrel which iirc superior to 5.56 with it's smaller projectile.
--- 57866114
>>57865996
Thanks, that's mostly what I'm seeing as well. I have a 16" ak103 now and am not happy with the weight and balance after having set it up to be on par with my ar capability wise. I think I'll look at getting a 104 when possible since it retains much of the energy while weighing 1.5lbs less with less leverage penalty.
--- 57866255
>>57866114
np. you can find a lot of good info by scrolling old boomer forums from like 2000-2010. lots of old 90s websites also have great infographics made by early internet gun autists.

I bought one just for shits and gigs. So far it’s been fine. I did have to modify the magwell to accept steel mags but other than that it’s been fine. Maybe a bit overgassed but no better or worse than a WASR.

Where did you get the Romy barrel and how much did you pay? I need to get my kit built too.
--- 57869821
>>57861539
Also did Corey put a PSA fcg and hammer in yours? He did for me even though I sent enough parts for 922r (furniture, mag, receiver). For some reason, I can’t get the hammer pin out either so I’m stuck with it. I think the Childers receiver may be out of spec or something. No idea but that sumbitch is stuck in there. He offered to fix his mistake but he wants me to pay for the shipping, which will be about a $50 ride each way. Kinda left a bad taste in my mouth, not sure if I’ll send him the rest of my kits or just buy a press and build them out myself.

Yeah, did both while in a vise and zip tied the hammer spring to relieve tension. Not my first rodeo replacing 922r FCGs for surplus, but I’ve never built before so idk. Comes out a hair and then gets stuck on the shoulder of the pin. No amount of wiggling or mallet striking will remove it.

I've got an Arsenal SGL-21,31 SLR107CR, 107UR AND 104UR , and KUSA KR103SFS and a KP-104 SBR. But now I'm jonesing for a 101 gun. Are the reports about the PSA guns accurate? Are they really a total shitshow?

It's over import bros..... Best AK is not import but domestic
Palmetto has always been the king

>I wanted to order some of the paint from russianpaint dot net to try but.........
Don't order the paint, sent the rifle off to a company that's approved for applying the shit and make sure your rifle is parked before it's painted.

Me and my dad shot a bunch in the sandpit
He had his new AR, I had my sam7sf, dissipator, and a bunch of pistols
Then we had split pea and ham soup
Pretty good day, 8.5/10

My brother in Christ just use a spent 12 gauge shell to hold the hammer springs in place.

Why throw the 104ur in A instead of S? Because of SBR BS or some shit?
--- 57874786

Overpriced 
Overgassed 
Rare
Sbs
Should be lower in my opinion
--- 57874826
>>57874557
Looks like tdi arms or any of the copies of it.
--- 57874843
>>57874786
>overpriced
In today's secondhand market sure. They were kinda expensive back then, but that's just arsenal in general.
>overgassed
Like pretty much all imports/factory guns lol
>rare
they were all over, they literally had trouble selling the cunts when they went out of production. Only rare now because fomo ban gun.
>sbr
I'll give you that, but even still it's the only legitimate AKS-74u import we've ever had. Better they were imported as rifles as to skirt a 7n6 ban, at least until IO fucked everything up with the onyks.
--- 57874911
>>57874843
IO now hides behind the name Royal Tiger Imports but I’ll never forget what they did

its TDI arms sir

They are only overgassed with the 16” barrel. Once you chop it down to the right length it changes everything.

I should have answered this as I'm basically the only guy who's made videos on them.
Yes, there has been multiple reports from people be it reddit, arf.com, akfiles YouTube comments or insta dms I've received.
The guns have Constant issues and you should avoid them

Wait for the KUSA, you seem content with the two you have thus far.
--- 57876103

KUSA still has to sort their shit out too

I’m still waiting for their AK-101. Supposedly they said “out in 2023” but who knows when they’ll drop it.
--- 57876357
>>57873832
I think there's one on GunBroker:

I'm new to AKs and couldn't understand why this kit was so expensive.
--- 57876448
>>57876142
They said mid to late 2023 at SHOT this year back in January. I doubt it'll be ready by then so probably more like Q1 2024
