Update. Decided to take Bigsal's advice. Just ended up skimping on the stock for the .308 (Aw shucks , I can only use American made hi caps in it now to comply with 922r).Just ended up using a beat 74 stock on the .308 until i can set something nice up. Though I have to say the ugliness has grown on me. If that SLR saw much use it sure doesn't show it, glad I snapped it up.

I picked up an Arsenal SLR 105 recently in the ban format. It has what appears to be a large nut on the end of the front sight block but it is actually just part of it. I looked at the Bulgarian FSB that k-var sells and it looks like it would work out. I want to switch out the stock fsb so I can mount the bulgy brake (permanently affixed to comply with CT awb laws). Does anyone have any experience or advice on this particular operation. I would hate to order parts and find out that something odd was done to the neutered 105s to make this operation impossible. Looks like I'm good to go, but I

[ I have been aiming for the coveted title of "Ugliest and Most Impractical AK in the World". Looking to get new furniture but budget constraints have forced an old bulgy stock on it for the meantime. Still psyched ,if for no other reason than a decent trigger. Baby steps

Top worst movies: Zardoz http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbGVIdA3dx0 Mutant Chronicles. May be showing how much of a nerd I am but Mutant Chronicles was one of my favorite sci fi settings in my teenage years and they butchered it with that abomination. The trailer doesn't look half bad,but don't let that fool you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pS9jv8ejIgY Finally watched Starship Troopers 3 and it was a steamer as well

I'll just have to eat pb and j for a bit, it was a more money than I had set aside for the saiga conversion. Not sweating t too much since I saw CAI Tantals and M74 ETRDs for 600. That paticular shop is awful though. I loved their Yugo 24/47 mausers ( maybe 240 in good condition) labelled as German K98s for 500 bucks.

Not a consignment rifle. The shop bought it outright. Either it barely at used at all , or somebody loved that rifle. Had them set it aside for me this afternoon.Provided my tenants actually pay rent on time it will be mine tomorrow.

I wish it were that easy, I'd love to do my conversion in one shot and get the 105. Don't think that will happen though.

Having a little bit of an issue. I had set aside some money to convert my saiga. However, I found an Arsenal SLR 105 at a local shop. Now this may not seem like a big deal, but I live in Ct which is an AWB state and the only Ak 74's we get are over priced neutered romanians. Basically the one shop that actually removes bayo lugs, tacks on brakes etc. know they are the only game in town and gouges people. 74's are few and far between in other shops. Looking for a price check. The shop that has the Arsenal is asking 650 for it. Is that a reasonable price? All of the price check info I

The only ak style gun that I have is the saiga .308 and those mags are something else. I do have a VZ 58 which takes different mags than the ak, but are still 30 round 7.62x39 mags so they are almost identical in shape and size to an ak 30 rounder. I can deal with the weight of the 12 mags I have for it ( hell I weighed it out,my regular work rig weighs more)but they are too unwieldy to carry around. I can deal with carrying 8 mags comfortably. That being said if you can buy them on the cheap do it, especially if you have more than one rifle that will accept a certain mag. I bought the VZ mag

Excessively happy me. I think this was when I had just brought home my No. 5 Mk 1 Jungle carbine. I was stoked.

It's Nahuatl for left-handed. And I'm left handed

3852 (7.62x54 x 2) + (7.92x57 x 2) + (7.62x51) + (7.5x55) + (6.8x63) + (7.7x56) I know, I know. I love the odd ball cartridges ( and my math may be dodgy on the .270 Wby= 6.8x63) Oops this thread is old as hell, shoulda checked
