a WASR can still be had cheaper than a RAS, and is a far superior rifle.
>inb4 prove it
look at AK operators union torture tests of both rifles
>>29334605
this applies to you as well.
CAI imports and sells solid rifles, the rifles they make 100% in house have a lousy track record, shitty parts that wear out far too quickly, strange malfunctions, crappy build choices - cast trunions most famously.

neat, I seldom see Type 56S posted around.
Got one myself last year. Seems to be the Long Barrel version, but not quite as long pipe as in that photo. Got the Finnish lion marks, meaning it's mid 90s import.
I'd give my right nut for a bayonet that fits this thing. The typical commie-block AK47 and AKM/74 bayos don't sit right on it at all.
Does anyone know a place where to buy furniture and parts for these? Preferably one that ships to EU.

Does a '74 style brake have any discernable effect on an AKM? Versus a regular slant break I mean.

the clamping part that's supposed to pincer around the barrel is super tight, like I really need to use a hammer to bang it off if I get it on it. And even then, the blade tends to lean towards the muzzle.

So, I've been interested in buying an AK for a little while now. I've been to several gun stores, as well as gun shows. Every single one I've found hasn't had a bayonet lug on it. Are they illegal or something? I don't really want an AK if I can't put my pig sticker on it.

>Any straw purchasers that will buy it for you?
>>29336532
The UR has a standard twist for a full length 74 (1:7.87"), the 74u should have a faster 1:6.3" twist.
Pretty sloppy on Arsenal's part in my opinion, especially considering the money they charge.
>>29336682

This.
Srsly guise. And Century was selling some hideous fucked-up shit long before they got the brilliant idea to make AKs in-house. 20+ years ago--well, Google for "FAL unibrow receiver" or "Century CETME crooked cocking tube" or "Century MAS49 .308 conversion." They've been selling horrible, unserviceable gun-shaped objects to the unwary for a long, long time now and have earned their reputation. I'm mildly surprised that the WASRs they import are as nice as they are--but Century imports those, they don't build them.
>>29336632
>over 18
>company policy not to sell until 21
>straw purchase
You might be retarded
>>29336783
>>29336784
It might be enough to stabilize them now when it's new, but when it wears, the keyholing will come much sooner.
>>29336801
Stop making me sad with your Russian 74u goodness
>>29334901
I've not tried one. I hear people say that IF it is properly made, with a large expansion chamber for propellant gases in the rear portion (which not all copies have) it is an excellent, highly efficient muzzle brake. I've heard that the Tantal brakes--the real ones--are even more efficient because the expansion chamber inside them is that much bigger, but I really don't know.
Of course, I'm of the opinion that the AKM platform and its 7.62x39mm cartridge don't have recoil severe enough to need any kind of brake for extended comfortable shooting, and what the 7.62x39mm needs the most is flash suppression.
>>29336202

>>29336809
Well, when you shoot yours out, you can throw it in the garbage and order half a dozen new ones for pocket money and press that fucker in.
When I shoot mine out, I need to pay for the barrel to be destroyed according to the regulations, then track down an another barrel (borderline impossible), get a separate permit, pay the permit fee, register it, pay the registration fee and have it installed by a gunsmith (because it's illegal to alter main parts by myself).
Feel better?

>>29336982
>[citation needed]
It's only an assumption, but a logical one. Full length 74 will keyhole when the rifling wears down to the point where it'll no longer stabilize the bullet (we've gotten batches of issued 74Ms that keyholed since day one, with the first five inches past the chamber being basically smoothbore). When the 1:7.87" krink barely manages to stabilize the bullet out of the box, it's only natural to assume it will cross that threshold much sooner. Either way, Soviets weren't exactly known for changing twist rates on a whim of an autist.
>>29336970
Nah, they lied to you. It's all balding middle aged men with beer guts bitching about America, the EU and Kalousek.
>>29337136
That's too bad. At least we Leutonian-Americans still know how to party.
>>29337136
>It's only an assumption, but a logical one. Full length 74 will keyhole when the rifling wears down to the point where it'll no longer stabilize the bullet
To which I'll ask, are the barrels wearing down from the twist rate, or simply due to a high round count wearing down the lands and grooves?
It's safe to assume that it'll wear at about the same rate as a full length 74 with the same twist, and that any barrel, once wore out, will cause accuracy and stability issues.
If people want to spout that one barrel wears faster than another, they should have some sort of citation to back it up. Unfortunately, I don't know too many people willing to destroy a pair of barrels just to find out.
On the bright side, now that we know the standard Bulgarian barrel works well while chopped, it's not such a big deal to get your rifle re-barreled.
>>29337325
You misunderstood me. It's not that it would wear faster (well, at the gas port it definitely *will* erode much faster, but that's not the point right now...)
It's just that when you start out with two barrels of the same twist, but one of them is 16" and the other one is 8", guess which one will be the first to stop being able to reliably stabilize the same bullet?
>>29337476
>we've gotten batches of issued 74Ms that keyholed since day one, with the first five inches past the chamber being basically smoothbore
When do yall use 74Ms?
>>29337586
We don't, ZelenySport (http://www.zelenysport.cz) imported them in various conditions and sold them for like $350 a piece back then.
The closest we ever were to issung an AK derivative was the Lada project.
>>29337651
>$350 ak74m
Damn, even if they need a new barrel that's a steal
>>29336360
>Are N-PAP's anygood?
Better overall build quality than WASRs. Lack a chromed barrel and use proprietary furniture so the aftermarket's pretty whack compared to standard AKMs like WASRs.

As far as I can tell they are the only people with steel 5.45 mags in stock and their mak grips are $10 under market and their bayonets are at market.
>>29337476
I guess I'm not wording this properly.
Which barrel would wear more rapidly, a barrel with a faster twist, or one with a more gradual twist rate?
I'd imagine that the more gentle twist would wear less, that is if the twist rate effects barrel wear at noticeable levels at all.
If you have any proof to the contrary, I'd gladly read/watch it.
All that said, if they were to wear at the same rate, I could see the faster twist stabilizing for a higher round count, though I don't know how much more, or if it'd even be worth the switch to the "proper" twist for Arsenal.

>>29337975
Get a PA MD-ADS
>>29337928
Oh, now I get what you mean. Of course the faster twist will wear more rapidly, but the twist rate change is not very drastic to begin with, nowhere near the jump from 1:12" to 1:7" for example.
Yeah, I'll admit that until someone actually agrees to waste two barrels and burn through 30-50k of 5.45, this is all just academic.

>>29337975
Forged unless it's changed you can tell by looking at them and if they have something that looks like a mold line they are cast.
I personally don't have a whole lot of experience with the ultimak or microdots in general but if you have a side rail I would advise you to get either the rd regulate side rail mount or if price is an issue the Midwest industries side mount. I would only recommend the ultimak if weight is an extremely high priority because your going to probably want to get a quick detatch mount if you go down that road and those ain't cheap either

How is Yugo M67 compared to Golden Tiger ballistically?
>>29338121
Yeah it was a toss up between a Texas weapon system dogleg rail, ultimak, and sidemount. I went with the ultimak because it has a lower one third cowitness, and I could still maintain cheekweld. I am in the army so my guns and mail order parts are back home and I only have a few parts that I bought here, so I have to ask a lot of things here.

If you want to resize 7.62x25 to a straight walled case with each pull of the trigger, and send a bullet in the (very) general direction of the backstop at the same time, this is the gun for you.

My NPAP came smoother out of the box than my WASR, beefier, tighter fit and better finish.
Also IMO the Zastava barrels are higher quality but the chrome-lining makes it a wash.
"muh heat treat" memes are bullshit though I will say that Zastava QC definitely slipped last year.
>>29337963
What kind of ammo?
>>29338293
Is there any way to tell if its a fucked one.
>>29338281
You know the weird part? The rifling is beautiful. Mirror sheen, crisp grooves, perfect crown.
But every single (brass!) case I fire out of that thing comes out painted solid black with soot and straight-walled, and the "groups" are larger than I ever thought was physically possible without visible keyholing. My guess are generous chamber dimensions even for Russian standard.

Barrel looks fine, dunno. I was using Tula. Hope its not a head spacing issue. I emailed Century Arms.
>>29338427

>>29338438
I'm almost certain it's the Tula. The only ammo that's ever given me problems has been Tula.
>>29338416
Well, I guess when the preferred tactic is to fire from the hip and unload most or all of your 71 round drum at poor Hans across the street in bombed out Slavograd, that wasn't much of a downside.
I use 7N6 as my truck gun load because fuck everyone and everything.
I was the guy a couple weeks ago who bought a James River AK-74 from Atlantic. This is my first AK. Everything looks pretty good to me but let me get your guys opinions on it.

Those bumps
ordered a russian single-point sling from russiansurplus.
the sposn rt-3 is a little awkward with the rear sling mount on the zenitco pt-1.
>>29338533
I've seen decently accurate ones, I just got a lemon. Same with my UZI, it's super fucky (goes fullauto right before the trigger fully breaks, then FTFs once you either finish pulling it or release it, you can dump a full mag if you can manage to hold the trigger right at that spot) while other people's ones work great. It really put me off open bolt SMG conversions.
>>29338590
I just got it today. I'm gonna go shoot this weekend. I'll post back then how it does.
>>29338590
Very nice, how do you like yours? I don't think I'll ever buy another shotgun, this one can do everything lol.

So since I enjoy dressing my WASR up a bit. Should I polish the exposed part of the bolt carrier for that "chrome" look to offset the black? And how does /akg/ feel about kobra RDS on wasr's or ak's in general?
>>29338634
That's exactly how I feel about mine. I use it during sporting clays and skeet/trap club too. But luckily I got up to 6 5rd mags for 20/each.
So long as you find a good way to manage mags while shooting, it works great. My psl pouch slung over a shoulder works amazingly to hold mags/ammo and chokes etc. Then I can just load mags with one hand while the mags sit in the pouch.

Chrome Lined 20" Barrel
1.5mm thick RPK Reciever
I want to 922R this gun; Suggestions on what to do.
A) Fake RPK
B) Fake Tabuk
C) Standard Wood or poly AK Furniture
D) Leave it like it is
E) Something Else (modern ak furniture, etc)
Wat do, /K/?
>>29339000
The kobra is cool but the new retail prices are waaaay too high for what it is. You're paying for the cool factor. If you can find a good used price on a forum or gunbroker or eBay or something then you can do good with it.
As for your bolt carrier, it's not stainless, so polishing it will expose it to rust because you're destroying the protective finish. If you polish it slick enough, then the risk of rust is minimized and easy to remove, but still more of a risk than it being parkerized.
>>29339013
ah, you're the guy with that pouch
we have had this conversation before lol
>>29339026
I vote B because you already have the long barrel you just need the flash hider and the stock set
>>29338954
Proofs?
>>29339076
Thanks, Annon.
Anyone else have suggestions?
>>29339026
tabuk definitely
>>29339026
I say leave it as is. Makes it more interesting.
>>29338535
I was considering getting one of these.
It looks nice.
>>29338293
when did you buy your WASR? My buddy got one recently and its fit and finish is excellent.
Older WASR's are pretty shit tho
>>29339090
It is an interesting gun
>>29339086
2 for tabuk and one for as is... anyone else want to vote?
>>29339026
>>29339065
I guess i'll keep my eye out for a deal on a kobra. Most places i've looked have either not had them in stock or they are asking $400+ for them. As for my bolt, I'm aware of the danger of rust with doing that to my bolt. is there any ak variant that comes with a bolt that is nickel-plated, stainless, etc, that would give me that look while still being protected and is compatible with the wasr?
>>29339123
I purchased my WASR about a year ago, pic related >>29338906
Other than the stock furniture looking like complete as, she runs like a dream, haven't had any issues.
>>29339157

I agree, the wood blows, rest of the rifle is fine tho.
>>29338967
>>29339077
Circle 10AK.
They got word from Fiocchi that if there's enough demand, they'll make it.
They're the same group that make 8mm styer, 4.6x30, 9x18, 9x21, and some other low demand loads.
Pretty safe bet that they'll start production, but it wouldn't hurt to email them and let them know you want to see it made.
>>29339123
>Older WASR's are pretty shit tho
Fuckings you
>>29338187
Almost identical.
>>29339219
Like 2009 and older, this is a well known fact.
>>29339141
I would tell you to check out the Yugo bolt carriers but it's questionable whether or not they're real stainless. They're in the white and semi-polished like stainless but I'm not sure if they're actually stainless. If it's not stainless, then you'd be just as good polishing your current bolt carrier. I dunno, your call.
>>29339092
It seems nice to me, but this is my first AK so I'm really sure what to look for. If you are curious about any other aspects of the rifle I can post pics of it.
>>29339234
Yeah, I didn't want to wait around for my LGS to get one in stock, and I didn't want to wait for shipping either. So I bought this pre-'09 one.
No regrets at all. The only problem I've had with it is that it does not seem to like anything brass or Wolf, but that may change as it wears in. Still haven't broken 2k with it.
>>29339022
I guessed that's what it was.
You gonna let me get those 40 round bakes if they show up?
I can send the money back to you, but I'll wait for you to get them first this time.
>It's been more than a year since we tried to get that deal done.
>>29339283
the biggest complaint seemed to be canted sights, if you're good on that front you should be gtg.
>finicky ammo diet
ought to break in. what does it do? FTF? double feed?
>>29339310
Of course. If they actually get here I'll give you two for the price of one. I had already wrote these mags off as a loss so anything off these is a gain to me.
>>29339312
>FTF? double feed?
It jams the tip of the bullet against the wall of the chamber, like it can't direct the cartridge into the chamber properly. I had my uncle open up the chamber entry a little bit to try and rectify the problem, but that didn't help at all.
I'm actually not sure if it even still does this. I haven't tried Wolf or brass-cased since the second week I owned it.
