Caught that nigga in the desert today shooting some kinda AK
Also anyone here have any experience with an Amber Shellac/Iodine dye mixture? Is it easy? I'm thinking I might just stick with Amber shellac
>>30414559
sometimes, i look at the guns they have and i dont understand the choices that cabela makes.
>>30414617
Was a good day.
>>30414784
What's the stock on the top AK? I see it a bunch but have no idea what it is.
>>30414723
I redid an Apex Balkan set in it. It works pretty good but I recommend thinning it out with some mineral spirits. You'll need to do light coats and let them dry in between. Overall it's pretty easy but a little messy
Pic related is about 6 coats, excuse the C39v2 it's not my rifle
>>30414795
A $400+ Zenit one
>>30414772
Agreed. We need an ak operator desert goon squad
>>30414817
dat rape van tho...
wish i went shooting today, great day but by the time i got all my yard work done, i was too tired to go
>>30414491
pretty sure its custom from some guy on akfiles
>>30414800
That looks good. Pretty sure that's the shellac+iodine right?
I'm thinking something like that but a little lighter, so maybe 4-5 coats. Fortunately I'm getting sent some scrap wood along with my furniture.
What difference does the mineral spirits make?
>>30414831
It's been 115f+ here lately in Phoenix, so the only time to get a few hours of fun is around dusk or dawn. After 9am its miserable.
>>30414817

I was the radio tech for a special operations unit. Here is a pic of me with one of Saddam's AK's in Iraq.
>>30414858
If your looking for a lighter color then i would go with less iodine. Honestly i got the formula off of the AKfiles but the mineral spirits helps to thin it out so you can evenly apply it, otherwise it's pretty thick and you will leave brush strokes in the finish if it's too thick.
>>30414975
Fair enough. Just like a really light, rust red orange? Would I want iodine at all if that's what I want?
Also good point on the mineral spirits.
I'm not trying to overthink this because I dropped alot of money on the furniture but if all the Russians do is coats of amber shellac then it should be easy I hope
>>30414926
Okay... and?
>>30415000
Amber shellac will come out similar to this.
If this is too light, try ruby shellac.
>>30415000
Yeah you'd want the iodine, just go easy on it, it really doesn't take much at all to turn your mix a dark red. I'd start out with less than you think you'll need and add more. Keep in mind that as you go, the coats will get darker and darker, but no swear /k/omrade, it's pretty simple and straight forward. You mentioned some scrap wood, I would certainly practice on that.
>>30415092
>If this is too light, try ruby shellac.
From what I've heard, just add another layer of amber till you get it where you want.
>>30414973
I've only seen the silver one in this pic.
Got any better resolution pics?
>>30415092
That's beatiful, and pretty much exactly what I want. Maaaaybe a drop of iodine.
Is that from IWD?
>>30415126
I'll keep that in mind, thanks mang. Yea I'll definitely do some practice, and some experiments. I think I've been freaking myself out with all these youtube videos of guys with crazy complicated and expensive processes; but it sounds like all I'll need is some sponge brushes and the shellac + iodine.
>>30414886
Sounds good. When I come that way I'll let you guys know.
In AK deals Desert Fox Sales has Hungarian tankers for 19.99.
>>30415159
This is the only other pic that I have of it.
>>30415177
Yeah m8 you'll be fine. I literally did it on a whim and it turned out to be at least not shitty. i applied it with basic brushes on top of newspapers so you'll do fine I'm sure. Don't forget your mineral spirits, they'll come in real handy if you want to keep the brushes or clean them out.
>>30415159
Wouldn't mind having one of these tbhfam
Gonna dump some Type 1s
>>30414406
I know where those are..... surprised you got a picture.
>>30415255
>on top of newspaper
What?
And thanks for the advice M80's, I'll post it here as soon as it arrives and is stained. Sounds like it won't take much longer than a couple of hours or a day.
Also since I'm here, how bad does this dimpling look? The picture makes it look better than it is, but I was warned about dimpling, and only just now noticed this
>>30415315
hows that 2015 wasr ? nice finish?
>>30415315
Kek my bad, I meant I just set the hand guards on top of a newspaper as I stained them, my wife would sperg if I stained the deck with iodine
>>30415355
It's my first rifle comrade, I don't have anything to compare it to. If you're alluding to the fact that it wears off fairly quick, then no I guess not.
>>30415356
Oh right, probably should figured that out.
So Amber shellac, possibly a drop of iodine, sponge brushes, newspaper, and mineral spirits.
Will I need to wipe away excess shellac with something between coats, or is the sponge brush pretty good about that?
>>30415315
that rivet is fine comrade
>>30415379
You shouldn't have too much excess but you may get some buildup on the edges like where the retainer fits into the front, just wipe it away if you do.Honestly it's not that much different than staining anything else. But go with multiple light coats until you get the desired color.

Finally took my WASR (first AK) out and sighted the irons in yesterday. Managed to hit a majority of a magazine on a 400 yard gong with it. Rifle is fine. (did have to move the front sight almost as far right as it would go though, bought online and seem to have got a canted front sight)
I've been looking at the Arsenal SGL20/ SGL21 rifles lately are they worth the high price they command? Towards the 1k mark used when only a few years ago they were in the ballpark of $700?

oi chimps, whats some stuff thats common over in russa, but kinda unobtainium stateside? On the terms of izhmash smooth black ak100series PG and those rubber bolton triangle buttpads, etc etc. basically novelty unique stuff.
ok guys, i need your help.
I don't knwo why...but my bolt seems to chip at the back of the bolt.
Here are some pics.
Can somebody explain this to me?
>>30417631
there are somehow no marks on the trunnion....
>>30417631
What are we supposed to be looking at specifically?
>>30417635
maybe it chips itself at the hammer?
Is it still safe to shoot?
>>30417637
ahh...wait...i will mark it.

>>30417698
i had...yes, but changed back to standard after 2 bump fire situations.
1. was my girlfriend
2. was a friend of me
That should never happen...even with untrained shooters.
But do you think that the bolt is still ok?
>>30417735

RAS is this, good for pictures and pretend times
>>30420597
Someone who doesn't do their research and doesn't know much about guns would almost definitely pick the RAS over the WASR. Made in the USA, finish is nicer than the WASR, "feels" better. Bread and butter of normie gun owners

Just saying RAS was conceived and marketed to a segment of the community, and has probably been relatively successful.

As someone who posts in both threads pretty often, no one actually cares and a lot of people own both.
I some how ended up with a ton of AK and AK variants never really wanted more then one but the deals keep showing up and I cant pass them up.
Can I go back from here or have I gone too far? Am I doomed to a life of reliable rifles?
>>30421885
The ride will never end. Also, what's the second rifle from the top?
>>30421885
Okay, A) you can never go too far.
Nice preban(s?). That's a preban Galil?
Is 8m3 good for self defense/home defense ammo?
Whats a not shit .223/5.56 AK in the 800/1200 dollar range.
Are Polish Beryl AKs trash?
I'm an AR dude and I'd like ammo interoperation.
>>30421709
No I meant CIA, as in Central intelligence Agency. I believe they designed the RAS to flood the AK market so that when the great War comes, our weapons will break and we will not have arms to defend ourself.
Alright, went out this morning for an hour or so innadesert to demo some funz to a no-funz califag in hopes he'd one day decide to get uncucked. Shooting my AK and normally I shoot brass .223, either American Eagle, PMC, or whatever the fuck is on sale or whatever my pops had reloaded. This past week I shot steel for the first time out of this rifle, Tula shit at Walmart. I noticed in a friend's video yesterday of us shooting that it had a pretty gnarly muzzle flash, but today it was fucking ridiculous. I let my friend do a mag dump, and then shortly after I was taking some slow aimed shots, and the muzzle flash was so fucking bright that it looked like a fucking flamethrower out of the 74 style brake side cutouts. Is this the ammunition that could cause such a sudden increase in muzzle flash or something else?
>>30422186
slr106
>>30422186
>non shit AK in 5.56
SLR-106 that isn't an early production one, Galil, M90 PAP, Norinco 84S. Beryls are absolutely not fucking trash.
>>30422403
Yes it almost certainly has to do with the type of ammo being used. Sounds to me what's happening is the shitty Tula ammo isn't getting a good powder burn and you're getting excess burning powder out the muzzle. Other factors may be involved such as the temperature of the powder prior to ignition or the temperature of the barrel but I doubt it has a big effect. It's probably just the ammo.
>>30422186
Beryls are great. I've posted mine a bunch in /arg/. Good luck finding one though.
>Saving up money for a DDI AK-74

Goddamn it, can someone please give me a good 5.45 recommendation? I was originally thinking of Arsenal but I've been hearing a lot of shit about their finish and customer support.
Someone please help me, I desperately want a 74.
>>30422844

>>30423171
I don't think if he had to save up for a DDI AK-74 that he'll be able to afford the $!500 for a second hand SGL-31
>>30423171
>>30423294
Is there really much of a difference in performance between the SLR-104 and the SGL-31? The SLR isn't too much more, but I'd be paying twice as much for the SGL.
>>30423466
No you're better off with the SLR
When Atlantic opens up on Friday, should I immediately get this
http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/component/virtuemart/shipping-rifles/petronov-arms-polish-ak47-rifle-detail.html?Itemid=0
or should I stick with the SLR-104 that I've been fairly resolute on getting thus far?
The Petronov looks pretty dang good plus it's got the wood which is a very good plus for me.
What's the general attitude towards this one? Can it be trusted, or should I just stick with the Arsenal?
>>30423538
Get the SLR.
>>30423171
>just buy a rifle that isn't imported anymore
>need
just stop
>>30423466
buying a saiga/sgl compared to a slr is like buying a colt AR, youre just paying for "muh logos"
back when they were the same price it didn't matter, now that they are b& and command a $ premium just go with the slr since it's cheaper and the only company in the game for authentic slavshit. I mean sure you get to shitpost in akg about having a "muh authentic izzy ak made in motherland" but no one is going to actually care
tl;dr
unless you can find a reasonable priced sgl just get a bulgy slr, they are both equal.
on a side note since the russian sgl aks used ak74m/10x parts your not going to find spare bolts or bolt turn rivets since izhmash is now requiring licensing/royalties for their rifles and there is no surplus so you're going to need to get parts direct from slavland
Are Zastava M70's good entry level AK's?
>>30421912
Its a Finnish M78
>>30421955
the Galil isn't preban sadly I made it from a kit couldn't find a preban that wasn't beaten to shit or way over priced so i built one
>>30423632
Dude there's still SGL-31s on KVAR and other sites.
>>30423538
Normally I would give the edge to the SLR because of the CHF barrel and factory made and riveted receiver, but the rifle you're looking at has one of the Polish CHF barrels which more or less puts the barrel on par with the Bulgarian. The receiver is a US made which is less desirable than the SLR, but it's a Polish shell so that adds to the cool factor. It'd be nice if it were a little bit cheaper, and I still give the SLR a slight edge, but if you're leaning towards the more classic AKM style then I won't try to talk you out of that particular rifle. Looks like a solid Polish AKM clone.
>>30423696
close up of the galil
>>30423719
Hmmm, I am really liking it, kinda getting a gut feeling here. I just hope that it's reliable and won't face quality control issues like CA has done in the past.
I think I'll also replace the wood stock with a triangle stock as well. Fuck though, it really looks nice...
Ok, I guess what I'll do is when AF opens back up Friday, depending on how much the price of either the SLR or Petronov inflates, I'll go with the one that costs less.
Really like the Polish one though.
>>30423913
>I think I'll also replace the wood stock with a triangle stock as well.
Bruh
Don't even get the AKM if you're going to do this
>>30424009
Why not? I'm not going to throw the wood stock away. I'll keep it around for when I want to switch it up. I see literally nothing wrong with this.
>>30424182
Several reasons..
because the only reason to spend $1030 on a rifle like that is because it's a well made Polish AKM clone and the Poles never made an AKM with a triangle folder so it wouldn't be proper
Because you can't put a real triangle stock on there without extensive modification so you'll have to settle for one of the drop-in triangle folders which actually do look like shit (and may still require permanent modification to the rear trunnion)
Because, just because. If you want to build a frankenrifle there are much cheaper routes.
Hey /akg/, I just got a set of polish polymer akm/ak74 handguards in the mail from rtgparts for my wasr and surprise surprise the lower handguards wont fit my wasr because it's far too loose.
Where can I get a black set of polymer handguards that are guaranteed to work with stamped aks?
>>30424182
>>30424243
what chimps said
if you want a folder, get a polish, e german, or rommy wire sidefolder and a riser bar
that way you at least don't have to modify anything
>>30424247
Use some kind of epoxy to build it up where it's too loose and then sand it to fit
>>30424243
>>30424282
Ok, fair enough reasons. I do much prefer the wood stock anyways. I love the personal feeling I get from it, as opposed to poly or other types.
Went out shooting today to see if the Obzor will retain zero and it did with zero problems.
After getting home and cleaning my rifle (AKA shower with it because 7n6) I took some new pics to shitpost with :^)
>>30424292
What brand do you recommend that is reliable and can withstand the heat?
>>30424308
This is the last of my open 7n6. I have enough stripper clips to fit an exact 1080 rounds/one can on clips, so I'm down to about ~70% of a can left besides two more sealed tins I'm just gonna keep sealed for novelty's sake. After this is gone I'm sitting on some of that nice lacquered Wolf and some Silver Bear.
It is insane how much these clips go for now. I paid less than $40 for all these clips and a dozen spoons only a year and a half ago.
>>30424359
And I traded some leftover 5.56 I've had lying around for years for these goodies today. The guy couldn't sell them locally so I offered to trade him some ammo and he went with it just to get rid of everything.

Stick with the SLR. Poland makes good quality stuff, but the builder has no rep.

pick one, and only one. Its a new production barrel. While Radom makes it, who knows if its really to their supersekrit warsaw-pact military-barrel TDP.
>>30423632
>back when they were the same price it didn't matter,
except they were still frankenbuilds. The only thing really russian was the receiver, barrel, and BCG/trunnion. Unless you went IZ240 and converted with real parts, you got a NON-PG reinforcement plate rcvt and a mishmash of bulgy ak74 era parts (not ak74m)

trashass overpriced shit.
>>30426166
I think Serbshit is pretty aesthetic tbqh fampai, and it's better when it has a chrome lined barrel
And the parts are from Numrich, matching numbers in very good condition vs mix master with rust from every other supplier for only $20 more
>>30426316
>$1 a clip is too much
Compared to what I paid for them that is more than double.
>at least they are reusable, unlike 5.56 strippers.
True, and when you're concerned about weight and space two clips and a spoon sure beats a loaded mag.
>How many can you jam into a .50 can?
I can fit all 72 loaded clips with all dozen or so spoons in a .50 can and I did that for a while when storing them, but it gets old lugging a .50 can full of 1080 rounds around when wanting to shoot out in the middle of nowhere so I put half and half in .30 cans.
>What serial# on the bayo's?
3610 and 6687
>>30426368
>And the parts are from Numrich, matching numbers in very good condition
Was that the condition listed for the kit? Also, whats the diff between their LikeNew Parkerized and LikeNew Black finish? Isn't the black on paint-over-parkerized?

>>30426500
The only thing I find significant about your posts is how significantly wrong they are about fucking everything.
The guy's picture included a Valmet and a PSL. Neither are serbshit and it doesn't take a genius to figure that out.
The only SGLs that ever had any Bulgarian parts are the SGL-20's and some of the extremely early half-converted SGL's that still had sporter buttstocks that you never really see for sale because not many of them were made and most were converted. SGL-20's are also very uncommon to see for sale. The vast majority of SGL's (including all 31's and 21's) have all Russian parts except for the necessary 922r parts. You would know these things if you weren't talking out of your ass about things you don't know about for the sake of (You)'s.
>>30426539
As expected you can't even back up your unfounded claims

It's the same guy trying to say that plum furniture wasn't found in Afghanistan during the latter years of the Soviet Afghan War and he's shitposting harder than an Australian-Finnish lovechild on summer vacation.

>You would know these things if you didn't know these things
Okay that was stupid but still not as stupid as "unsignificant" and calling a Valmet serbshit.
>>30426471
Actually, looking back on the listing it doesn't list the quality. Ill posy pis of the conotion it is in when it comes. As for the finish, I couldn't tell you one way or another

There is nothing in your shitty arfcom thread that reinforces your point, and even if there was I wouldn't believe it because I know what I'm talking about.

Apparently you forgot how you phrased it, allow me to remind you:
>>besides the golani and AES10b, all thats serbshit
>>>>besides [these two exceptions], the rest of those rifles are serbshit
Don't try and backpedal, just admit you fucked up, not only on one rifle but on two rifles in the picture which were obviously not Serbian.
I'm not mad because you're ignorant, I'm mad because you're ignorant and you still pretend to know what you're talking about, spreading disinfo.

seeing as I dont remember putting that extra 's' after 'that', and remember it as such, I see where youre coming from.
>spreading disinfo.
serbshit is just what I claimed it is. It is literally RAS47-tier with its improper heat-treats and low quality steel: except its not made in USA and takes snowflake furniture and parts.
>>30427014
>All this shit talking
Who makes your AK?
>>30427014
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but are we ignoring your totally bogus claim that SGL's have Bulgarian parts on them, and only five parts total are Russian? Really?
This is how bad info gets spread. You have vocally negative opinions on guns based on things that aren't even true.
>>30427157
I just threw some # out there, just like how a AK74 doesnt really have only 17 parts, which you failed to mention.
>>30426316
>trashass overpriced shit.
>$50 is too much for a better trigger
G2 should be the baseline, not the end goal.
>>30427014
Barrel
FSB
GB
handguard retainer
Gas tube
Rear sight block and retainer lever
Bolt carrier and bolt
Front and rear trunnion
Receiver
Top cover
Not even fucking close to 5.
Number of Bulgarian parts on an SGL:
...
...
...
Some speculate the trigger guard but I disagree with this claim, it's either 0 parts or maybe 1 part. A far cry from your alleged "mishmash of bulgy ak74 parts"
>>30427204
Oh wow you really revealed my ignorance by proving that I don't have the exact parts count of an AK-74 memorized. Wow awesome I'm going to sleep

FML that's scary, thanks for the protip anon, I'll read up bit I'll take your word on it. And it got run hot today with that shit too. :/ Fucking noguns/newguns only care about magdumps, bumpfiring and other gay shit. Probably ran 200 rounds of it total, but sticking to brass only from now on. Shoulda let them play with my WASR but was out of 7.62

If you have the knowhow to make a G2 feel good with $0.02 worth of polish, then you prolly dont have the mental fortitude to own firearms.
>>30427258
Still doesnt change the fact the parts used on SGL's are based off of older AK74-era parts, and not the newer AK74M stuff.

Saigas are shitty civilian hunting rifles, hacked up and converted with third party parts.

I've been debating getting a SLR104 or crossing the divide for a FAL.
>>30427779
Get the SLR104 first, then get an FAL sometime down the road.
I love both dearly, but if I could only have one it'd be the SLR104.
>>30427802
Really? I've never shot a FAL, alas my gun buddies from work are paranoid pussies that hardly ever go out.
My reservation with the 104 is it will be my 4th AK and autism really coming on strong.
>Figuring it will take 2k to get into 5.45, that goes a long ways towards a 50.63 that needs nothing but ammo.

nahh...never blamed it on the bumpfiring. I would blame it on the strength of the metal. The ALG is a very good trigger, but somehow new shooter tend to bump fire with it. You can even see that Jim Fuller mention this on his website....well not anymore like it seems...
>>30419202
how much you fag?
Considering building an ak this year, but I want to buy a parts kit soon. How much is a fair price nowadays for a bulgarian 74 folder kit, assuming one turns up on files or somewhere? Are polish Tantal kits easier or harder to find?
What kind of MOA should the 74 be shooting? I don't have the best eyes, but with a 3.5x magnification I get about 3 MOA with surplus ammo. Any tips on how to get tighter groups?
>Inb4 Git Gud
Recently got my first AK. Not planning to buy another yet, but just out of curiosity, what's the best Arsenal AK to get in 7.62x39? Anything except underfolder.

Pick one.
Plus it's not as "drop in" as they claim and does no better than an AKT for speed or weight of trigger pull.

Hey guys....serious question.
Could i buy a airsoft flashhider made out of steel for my AK?
They are round about 20$ cheap....as cheap as the stuff from russia but without these restrictions.
What do you think?
>>30429749
Serious answer... yeah go for it, what could go wrong?
>>30429768
i dunno...maybe some shrapnells of broken pot metal?
Did anybody ever tried something like this before?
>>30429681
Jimmy "Cuck" Fuller likes them. If that tells you something.
>>30429749
Why not just go on amazon and buy a real one for like 10 dollars more? Fuck, you people are cheap.
>>30429876

Tantals are going to be easier to find, but just know that the top handguard is a bit of a special snowflake thanks to how the rear sight block/handguard retainer work.
