Who has an AK (and variants)?

Well, Kinda first time for me. ive built 1/2 the kit before and many AR's along with a handful of gunsmith specials from various websites that ive built up my skills with. I just bought another kit and a completed receiver because the flat jig, spot welder and heat treatment tools were more than what i wanted to spend for right now. I can do a press for the rivets and set of files (starting out) for the barrel pin. Maybe a Drill press for the smaller pins later.

For me its less of a capability and more of a tool issue. (im not finding alot on the used market)

Received it a little rusty, But soaked it in a CLR bath and have since put an Alumahyde matte black coating on it to keep from rusting again.

 

Anyone need a Texas weapons systems dust cover for $125?

edit: also have a slr handguard for a m85/Draco and a ultimak m1-B I’m trying to get rid of.

 

numbers matching 74 trunion, bolt, carrier, extractor and dust cover $800 shipped or trade 92A1

I accept Zelle or cashapp and can have it out tomorrow. Bullet guide in tact and will not separate. $800 shipped Obo

@Sleipnir you ever dive into war rugs? was just reading about them today, seems like something that would work well as a backdrop for all your ak photography

 

I do.

 

I want a war rug bad just haven't pulled the trigger and bought one yet. They're super cool and I've been keeping an eye out for the perfect one. Got any leads?

 

not really but here is the article that crossed my feed and the first website google gave me when i feel into the rabbit hole

New AK owner. Where is the best online place to get 7.62 ammunition, and what is a fair price range?

 

Bought a shit ton from Ammoseek.

May be a bad time to buy 7.62x39. Heard biden put a ban on all things imported from Russia.

Damn glad I stay stocked up. 2020 didn't even effect me.

 

lax ammunition, freedom munition and aim surplus are a few I have used and been reasonable. I haven’t looked much lately but seems to be around .50 cents/rd on average.

 

Thanks. What magazines should I get in the $20-30 range? Don't want crap, but don't want to overspend for glamour.

 

I’ve had good luck with the croatia surplus mags from aim surplus and us palm mags

 

Everyone says that until they have a bake, slab and waffle in their hands

 

Everyone loves waffles!

 

In your price range stated I have had great luck with the PMAGs over the years, get the metal reinforced for a little more durability/longevity or non-reinforced for daily plinking / money savings.

X-Tech Tactical, at the upper end of your price range but a good heavy duty mag, also a couple of choices in reinforcement levels. Bulkier than the PMAGs though.

And finally you may want to check out the relativity new Palmetto State Armory Waffle Mags, I have several, they seem sturdy and feed fine, but I haven't had years of testing behind them like the PMAGs and X-Techs.

Good luck!
