What is so bad about Century C39s?
They are milled, don't have bayonet lugs, and probably no cleaning rod or cleaning kit.
But they are still a solid rifle, apparently.

Fair enough, but at least those 2 are shitty enough that maybe the people looking will LURK MORE and draw their own conclusions instead of being spoonfed opinions.
Priviet, /k/omrades! I just found some super cheap 7.62x39mm AK food in Europe (pic related). The brand is Limex, which seems to be an Austrian company selling ammo they found god only knows where. The price is 30% cheaper than Barnaul. Has anyone ever heard of it, or better, shot it?
>>27829208
That pic is from google
>>27829208
Ak food go boom. Buy, it's probably yugo shit so I hope you have a chrome lined barrel
Rate my AK, guys, I finally got it converted. It took a long while but I think it's getting close to its final configuration.
Is there a us brand that comes with a side mount rail pre-installed? I'm kind of wanting a pso setup

>thinking it's still pre-2008
I've been thinking about picking up another AK in 7.62x39 but I don't really need another rifle when I already have the perfect example of a 7.62x39 AK.
The remedy to this solution is to get an SBR which I've been thinking about doing for a while now, but I'm lazy and don't want to jump through hoops. One of these days down the line though I really do want to get an SBR AK, especially one with a triangle folder or maybe an underfolder just to have something different then what I already have.

Chrome line barrel I have, but also Ultimak rail mounted I have. Is that a problem?
>>27829734
Winter is my favorite shooting season.
I love shooting into thick ice and all the fields are empty and open so I can put out my steel target range. I can also walk through all the wildlife areas like my own personal playground because the water is frozen, and nobody else is there except for me and the dog, and whoever is else might be with me shooting. It's always fun to test ice thickness by seeing how many shots of 54r it takes to get to the water.

You ever go to Kjergaard Sports? I wish I had the time to get out there just to fingerfuck some PTR-91's. That's the only local dealer listed on PTR's website.
>>27830167
>You mean our little elbow?
Basically, over by appleton/montevideo.
>You ever go to Kjergaard Sports?
Yeah, I bought my psl and vz58 there. They also installed my scope rail on the vz.
I heard the store practically doubled in size now, but I haven't been there for a long time since it's over an hour away.
I'll probably be heading there with one of my skeet shooting buddies one of these weekends though. I'm hoping that doubling in size doesn't just mean 2x the hunting rifles and shotguns. I'm more of a slav and military rifle collector like your ptr91 and they've been on the weak side the last couple times I've been there. That's part of the reason I haven't been too excited about going back when it's over an hour's drive.
>>27830211

>>27830243
>I'm hoping that doubling in size doesn't just mean 2x the hunting rifles and shotguns.
I hear you. I went to Ahlman's one time and was disgusted.
>Land of 5,000 guns!
Land of 5,000 fucking Fudds for sure.
I know this is fucking MN, but 99% of the store was boring fudd shit. One corner had a smattering of AR's, WASR-2's, two SKS rifles and two Mosins, all overpriced.
Fuck Ahlman's. Atleast Cabela's and Fleet Farm maintain a nice inventory of scary black guns and milsurp beauties.
>>27830388
most of the midwest is like that. unless it can be used for hunting or is a handgun, don't expect to find shit. Hell, even in some of the cities you don't find anything more than a few ARs.
I recently bought an AMD63 because it was the cheapest AK I could find.
Can anyone post some resources for parts interchangeability? I want to put wooden furniture on it and ditch the stupid ass fore grip. Will normal stuff fit this gun? I'm finding a lot of vague and contradicting information.
>>27830402
I mean, I get that, but prior to that place my experience had been Fleet Farm and Cabela's. Both had more stuff that I was interested in despite having a smaller selection on hand.
Happy to say all my guns have come from based Fleet Farm.
>>27830458
Yes, lower handguards and stocks will fit no problem
I think you'll need a new gas tube for the upper handguard though

Shit quality video, but the brake works great. you can feel the blast blow your hair back, like a soft poof. shot 200 rounds today and that brake has to be the best thing for the VEPR, alot of residue is on the barrel behind the brake, i wiped a spot off to show, but the picture really doesn't do it justice
>>27830273
... what am i looking at here, holy shit

>>27834771
I really like mine but if I had the choice, I'd trade it for a WASR.
>No chrome lined barrel
>Different furniture
>Some parts differences
Still a great AK though.
>>27834771
If that's the rifle, that's not an OPAP.
It's one of the shitty 1st gen PAPs, that were plagued with issues.
The railed dust cover is a dead giveaway.
>>27833354
K den, <3.
I've considered sbsing my vepr12 but they seem to have issues cycling once you cut off some length. Do you know of any pucks or other options to get around it?
>>27835025
I thought opaps didn't have the grenade sights? And why would you want to trade it for a wasr?
Not the anon you replied to but I'm wondering the same thing. If I don't plan on changing the furniture will the opap have any distinct disadvantage over the wasr?
>>27835288
M70b1s have grenade sights, a friend of mine has one.
>>27835025
How many of the parts are surplus aside from the furniture?
Also, does anyone know if the supreme court is going to hear the AWB case?
>>27835288
What I have is an M70b1. I listed my reasons in the previous post. If you don't care about changing furniture then it shouldn't matter too much to you.
>>27835329
I'm not sure which ones are off the top of my head.
>>27835288
>>27835359
Actually, let me phrase that better. I wouldn't necessarily trade it for a WASR but if I had to chose again, I would chose the WASR.
>>27835231
I know saiga can have the issue because some have 2 ports some have 3 port systems my saiga runs on a 2 and does it well , it is full length though. my vepr has 5 ports that are way bigger and runs everything I don't think it will be an issue. could always send it to tromix if I fuck it up
Kinda got a boner for an AMD-65, does anyone know if any are produced with a fixed muzzle device so I could have a close to authentic barrel length?
I just got a ton of dosh and want to up my AK game (currently only have a WASR) - should I get a Galil ACE? I saw a bunch of Honduran soldiers waving them around when I was down there and have had a crush on them ever since.

>OPAP vs WASR
My friend and I both have similar old-school WASR 10/63's, while a mutual friend has an OPAP. I've seen the Yugo in action at the range and it works just as fine as our WASRs do, although it seems a bit fussy about ammo.
Basically what it's going to come down to is what you want out of it. Yugo rifles enjoy some new tacticool shit, but there is a wider variety of hardware available for AKM-type rifles like the WASR.

btw these are old east German with a few having stickers saying made in Germany.

23 grand if they are museum quality.
>>27842776
$3.50 american
the whole set
>>27842811
I agree with this, I heard museum grade tula's were going for something like 140 a piece, and those are east German 74 mags that are much harder to find.
>>27842597
>>27842799
Depends on museum quality friend. EG with full kit will bring $180 easy, $150 and they will dry up faster than a junkies spoon. $200-$220 if you get a slavboo thirsty enough
5.45 bakes on the whole are $45+ for museum quality, $30 for beat to shit and $40 for slightly used. It all just depends on if someone recently bought a 74 and needs some bake
>>27842918
Good thing i bought each pack for 100 dollers
only 2 of them have the cleaning kit, 1 of them has all the stuff 1 is the curved pack with no room for cleaning kit and 1 just dosent have anything but mags, they all are either "museum" or slightly used.
>>27842909
You drunk? EG are the most common and cheapest bake, russians are rare'ish and command the high $.
But it's all up to importers, it seems they get varieties in waves. last year or two izzy plums were common and cheap now tula plums are common till those dry up. after that we'll probably see surplus bulgy mags again and some more polish
>>27842976
That was the joke, I wouldn't keep your fingers crossed for bulgy magazines, it appears most of which that didn't get swipped, was thrown in with torn down 74's to be imported to the US a couple years ago, but I'm sure a warehouse or two will pop up here soon.

What kind of wood furniture fits on a Yugo M70? Do i just need hanguards with 3 vents or is there something else i need?
>>27846078
M70 furniture and M76 furniture.
Standard AK furniture doesn't fit Yugos and vice versa.
Handguards are longer, stocks use a through-bolt rather than a tang.
Anyone every tried the aftermarket BHO followers?
>>27846114
Does anyone make polymer furniture? or will i just have to get wood handguards?
>>27846139
iirc Tapco makes handguards, dunno about stocks. But they're Tapco, so there's that. Also apparently they don't have any kind of heat shielding. I've heard mixed reports about whether or not that's an issue.
At this point there are probably other companies doing polymer handguards too but I dunno.
For stocks, your options are pretty much get surplus M70 or M76 stocks, get Ironwood repros, or put a mounting block on it and do a Stormwerks or ACE stock.
Unless you get an underfolder. Yugo underfolders are way more tolerable than standard AKs though. Straighter angle, tighter lockup.
>>27846139
Magpul's Zhukov folding/adjustable is availabe as a stock option for Yugo
>>27846139
Ronin's Grips makes poly Yugo furniture.
It's not cheap but they're made to order and can be made in a variety of colors.
They also have a bulged style that looks pretty nice.

I don't personally own one, but it isn't too bad to "brace" against your "arm". It's not padded at all and very slim.

so besides the Beryl (i think they're cool, i'm just holding off on getting one until FB Radom starts up), any other solid .223 rifle options? Saiga? what mags work with Saigas?
>>27851553
>FB Radom starts up
You'll be waiting for quite awhile.
They've stalled out the past year from what I've read. (Issues with land/building)
I wouldn't bet on them being up and running for at least 2-3 years.
As for other .223 AKs, I have no clue.
>>27851705
oh what a pity. who imports the current Beryls (the ones from Royal Tiger)? and are they made in Poland?
>>27851722
>Royal Tiger Imports
I'd imagine they do, and yes.
But this guy >>27841606 could probably give you more info.
>>27851722
Royal Tiger / I/O imports them
radom makes them
>>27851722
Beryl guy here.
>>27851755
>>27851760
These guys are right. They are imported by Royal Tiger/IO but are manufactured in the Fabryka Broni plant in Radom, Poland. They are not made by Pioneer Arms as many IO AKs are. They're great quality AKs. I would highly recommend them. As a side note, the twist rate is actually 1:9 not 1:10. The 1:10 came from a mistranslation.
>>27851806
>1:9
shame. 1:7 seems to be the standard now except in cheap guns and barrels.
>>27851931
1:7 is definitely the most common but 1:9 is fine too. A lot of people were upset when they thought it was 1:10 though.
tfw first ak is on the way
>>27851931
>>27851949
What sort of barrel twist do AK's tend to have? Same?
>>27852320
If I remember right, AKMs have about 1:9.5 while AK74s have about 1:7.5.
>>27851806
oh hey, they're about as much as an Arsenal rifle now.
stock fold and collapse or just collapse?
>>27852408
Just collapse but you can switch out with any standard AK stock of your choosing. I got mine for $750 with the rail.
>>27852457
Royal Tiger wants them for $1k without a rail.
>>27852494
Christ, that's gone up since I checked last. I got lucky and found mine on gunbroker earlier this year.
>>27852520
yeah... the price jumped $100 between when they were sold out and with this new batch a few weeks ago.
>>27852520
any idea how well the left side selector works on the Beryls?
>>27852545
Jeeze, I'm glad I got mine at such a good price.
>>27852562
Mine doesn't have it but I hear it works fine.
My slr104fr from atlantic firearms came in today. Front sight is not canted, everything is fine. Even came with a legit bulgi mag made with steel. I just ordered 4 east German bakelite mags as well. Would you guys recommend me getting clips and loaders to load mags?
>>27852951
no, thumbs work fine. post pics of new hotness btw.
>>27852951
I've noticed a LOT of new rifles in the general are AK-74s. 5.45 has never been this popular.
>>27828560
Granted I haven't put 10k rounds through my ras 47 it seems like a pretty solid rifle. I have been shit on by century a couple of times before but these seem to be a halfway decent product.
>>27853100
>>27853111
the rifle in question
>>27853142
quick question: did your rifle come from Atlantic in a plano hard case?
I've heard they do that now.
>>27853238
it did not, it came in a cardboard box. I did, however, get a gun case (in the picture >>27853142) that fits the rifle perfectly when folded. I am still not sure weather it came from atlantic firearms or my ffl just screwed up and gave me the case for free.
>>27853262
hmm. well thanks for the info. nice rifle btw. going to be picking up a slr104-34 next month for a christmas present to myself.
how hard is triangle folder conversion
>>27853308
Hope yours turns out alright. I absolutely love mine. I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, however.
What are some good places online to get good 10/20 round 5.45 mags?
i saw somebody with a Magpul UBR stock on a rifle and thought that was a cool look. anybody got more pics?
>>27853395
Similar vein.
Anyone have suggestions on reputable internet stores that Brown Bear 7.62x39? I've enjoyed flawless performance from Brown Bear in my Mosin and would like to try it in AK also.
>>27853395
>10/20 round 5.45 mags
Are those even a thing, beyond tapcos?
I've seen Saiga 10rndrs but those are for guns with out a bullet guide and won't work without serious modification.
>>27853621
SG Ammo just got some Barnaul milspec ammo, laquered and fully sealed.
Same as the old Brown Bear ammo used to be.
Same price as BB, too (they also have it)
Personally I'd recommend Golden Tiger, but I might have to snag a case of that Barnaul.
>>27853395
tapco is pretty much the only option, check midwayusa
or find a saiga mag and grind down the front lug, you won't be able to even seat the mag until you grind it down.
>>27853704
>SG Ammo just got some Barnaul milspec ammo, laquered and fully sealed.
Oh boy you are no liar, sir.
Variety pack time, I guess. Time to see what foods my rifles really like.
Why do AKs cost more than ARs in the USA?
>>27854895
GEE
I FUCKING WONDER
Boys really how hard is it to triangle fold
It makes my dick so hard
>>27854895
because the AK47 is a TERRORIST MACHINE GUN capable of KILLING BABIES.
The AR is more popular for one, and I have a feeling that because there is such a bad image around the AK, that not a lot of companies make them, leading to less supply of quality guns.
>>27855948
maybe your eyes are just drawn to triangles?
>>27855968
All i want in life is a triangle folding ak
With a cannon optic
And a suppressor
Literally gets me harder than my cutboy
>>27854895
AK's aren't just potmetal you can casually slap on with ease for $200, there's import fees, converting them and a whole other shit that goes to making one.
Also take into consideration that almost all ar15's are made in the us so they will be cheaper in terms of the lack of import fees and everyone and their grandmother makes ar15's here. The market for ar's is extremely saturated.
That being said, it is baffling how an entry level ak nowadays costs more than a decent quality ar15 and what pisses me off about aks is how attatching things onto it is more complicated and expensive compared to an ar
>>27856115
Partly because there's a lot less standardization when it comes to AKs, due to the nature of stamped receivers and license building and every country wanting their own AK variant if they could build one. Compare metric and inch FALs - not everything on one works on the other.
>>27854895
hmmmmmm
one is produced by literally everyone in the country that can get their hands on a cnc machine
the other is mostly banned from import
Still waiting for CNC to do another run of receivers...
>>27853238
My 107 came in a plano case with the original box folded under it inside the shipping box. Got it early last month.
>>27839491
>>27839806
n-no bully
sex
>>27855967
which is hilarious considering most of the mass shootings here in murrica' have been done by an AR or the perp had one in his possession.
>>27856012
>cannon optic
wuts that

where do I get?
>>27846198
will this fit bulgarian slr 107s?
>>27859763
>Yugo furniture
>Non-yugo AK
No.
>>27849486
It's a cute kind of ugly
>>27859725
Russia.
I can't find it for sale or even available, even directly from the manufacturer.
But I'm on my phone, and only did a cursory search.
>"special" bayonet 6X9-1
>>27860242
yeah as far as I can tell from some russian knife forums they are not even for sale they're for special units
Anyone know anything about pic related? Are they shit or no?
>>27860322
That's pretty much what I saw too.
Too bad, it's a pretty cool design.
With the wire cutters being fully incorporated as part of the sheath, instead of using the blade of the bayo as a component.
>>27860401
yeah I would have really loved to put it on my rig
Why do Californians need to buy saigas
>>27860484
no flash hider or pistol grip or vfg or fixed 10+ round magazine makes a detachable magazine rifle OK.
>>27860484
Because scary features.
>>27860521
>no pistol grip
Pistol grip are allowed but I think there is some length limit on it
>>27860530
not on a featureless build.
