I wish it were a Burris Fastfire... Its just a $50 cheapie. Sad to say, I have not even shot it with that sight yet...

Will take a look at that side plate. A bullpup Draco is not something you even want to think about firing left handed, especially when tucked into the shoulder. Charging handle will take out teeth...

B Blessed by the DOJ? Not likely. Since Calguns.net got rolling with the original bullet buttons in 2005-2006, the DOJ will no longer answer questions regarding the legality of a gun. Calguns turned a number of their responses around on them, so that they are now scared to answer questions. In a recent court case they admitted that AR15 bullet buttons are actually legal, six YEARS after people started putting on rifles, and they were not happy to be forced into that admission... Took a look at the trigger piece in my post above and it looks like you could grind down the boss/spa

Going to have to say no on the RPK conversion. Took a look at my RPK and I see problems. The length of the lower hanguard and rear mount is the same as a standard AK, so would work, as would the upper handguard. The front of the RPK lower handguard is larger so the front of the bullpup pistol grip would be floating, but a filler could be made. The big problem is the larger diameter of the RPK barrel which is going to interfere with the actuator arm on the trigger and I don't see an easy solution for that problem. The arm almost touches the Draco barrel (and gets plenty hot). Don't thi

ATF says its a pistol. There are not any laws about HOW you fire a pistol. It does not suddenly change from a pistol to an SBR. If ATF had decided that it could be an SBR they would not have issued the opinions I posted earlier

1. I live in California... Its as close to an SBR as I will ever be able to own unless there is a huge change in CA gun laws. 2. ATF says the Draco remains a pistol with addition of the bullpup kit (because it has no stock). 3. I have short arms. With the right hand on the grip, left hand gripping the mag, it's possible to tuck it into the shoulder... A comparison: H&K MP5 in 9mm (muzzle energy 383 ft.lbs) Overall length (with stock extended 27.25" Barrel length: 8.85" Bullpup Draco in 7.62x39 (muzzle energy 1527 ft.lbs) Overall length 21.5" Barrel length: 11.5

I like the cable idea. How did you get the cable to clear the mag/mag well? Was looking for a thread on your bpS12 build but did not find one. Link? The new bicycle spoke is not flexing much. Original wire was . 053". The spoke is a double butted high tensile stainless steel (thicker for 1 1/2" ate each end where are the bends are) and is .70" at the ends and .065" in the middle. I was binding up tight. Fouled the right side of the handguard and fouled badly under the hammer pivot and hammer spring and did not really fit around the mag. I futzed around with it for a while and fin

Found more info from the ATF on AK bullpup design: From: http://www.cbrps.com/Products.html "The Draco pistol in the CBRPS configuration to be fired utilizing a single hand and without a front grip is considered a pistol as the information from a letter from the BATFE, below implies -" "Your new design eliminates the forward handgrip and thus does not facilitate two handed firing as your initial design did. Therefore FTB finds that an AK pistol mounted in your redesigned stock is intended to be fired with one hand and thus constitutes a "pistol" as defined in the Gun Control Act

First of all much thanks to Boba Debt for taking the initiative to contact the ATF and get legal clarification on adding the bullpup kit to a Draco pistol. My project is here: http://forum.saiga-1...llpup-progress/ Tim

First of all much thanks to Boba Debt for taking the initiative to contact the ATF and get legal clarification on adding the bullpup kit to a Draco pistol. It was finding his Draco bullpup post that led me to the Saiga 12 forum. Picked up one of the K-Var/Century AK bullpup conversion kits a while back and was considering converting an AK. Standard AK is 25" from barrel tip to the end of the receiver and adding the bullpup stock adds 1 5/8", so I would have to add about four inches to the barrel with a permanently attached extension of some sort to bring it to 30" (CA minimum for centerfir
