  2. My AK project (so far)

    in Saiga 7.62 X 39

    Posted

    I registered a while ago but haven't posted in a bit.
    I haven't done a whole lot to this rifle since the original conversion.

    So far I have moved the trigger assembly forward and installed the hogue grip.

    Replaced the stock with an AR style buffer tube and Magpul CTR stock (non-mil spec)

    Installed bullet guide and modified to accept standard AK mags.

    Replaced the main/hammer spring with the one on C.S.S. (highly recommended!)

    The two things that I'm looking to do next, and hoping to get some advice on, are optics and forend options.

    I don't want a reflex scope, but I don't want a sniper setup either.

    My rifle does have the longer barrel, so I wouldn't mind seeing what I can do with it at the range.

    Something on the tactical side of things is probably what I'd be looking for here.

    Now for the forend. I really like the Chaos rail and I also like something similar from one of the competitors not listed here.

    My concern here is with the longer barrel...and aesthetics really...I worry that the longer barrel is going to look kinda goofy with those shorter forends.

    I'll more than likely go with one of these anyway, but please let me know if you have any other ideas.

    Some of y'all are drinking the paranoid Kool-aid. I can't believe some of you are worried about our own government attacking and raining death down because of all this shit happening021.gifrolleyes.gif .

     

    If anything it, like previously mentioned, is from increased cartel violence or something from that nature.

     

    I understand being prepared against enemies foreign and domestic... but c'mon guys, we aren't there yet...

     

    This is all very true but this thread is pure comedy gold nonetheless.

    I was hit head on by a gal that had out of state warrents for traffic tickets. Guess why they arrested her at the scene?

     

    Mancat answered your question. Futhermore, traffic or not, you're a criminal, hence the warrant for your ARREST. You get no free pass from me sir.

     

    Are you honestly THAT unaware of what the laws actually are?

     

    Unfortuantely, it is YOU that should not be allowed to handle a weapon.

    Holy cow, you're a regular Diana Degette.

     

    I cannot be arrested outside of the state of CO for those tickets.

    Do your research, rookie.

     

    I get what you're actually asking now.

     

    Do you have a concealed carry license? This will allow some checks to be skipped at the state level.

     

    I do, and that's another thing that I thought was weird, because they supposedly do state DOJ requirements as well as NICS.

    It never even got mentioned during the application process.

    The only time it comes up is when I purchase a shotgun or rifle, and then they give me a proceed 2-3 day later.

    Now I've never been arrested or charged with anything, nor had warrants. But don't you think clearing your name, no matter how insignificant, would be a priority above getting a new toy? So you buy a firearm, multiple firearms, great. But don't you think you could have spent that money to pay off your tickets so you don't...idk, get fucking arrested if you're ever pulled over?

     

    No offense dude, but if someone walked on my range and asked me that, I would never let them shoot there. That's irresponsible, and irresponsible and guns don't mix. THATS why this seems pretty fishy to me. Gun owners are law abiding citizens and we like to keep it that way.

     

    Why would I get arrested in WI for a non extraditable traffic warrant out of CO?

    I would have to be physically in the state...

     

    I get where you guys are coming from, but you don't seem to actually know what you're talking about here.

    Again, you didn't read the post.

    I'm not asking about why I'm getting delayed or if I'm going to or if a warrant has anything to do with it.

    I'm fully aware of the situation.

     

    I'm asking what the difference is between the two checks, based on the fact that I get my handguns sooner than my long guns.

    Again, a simple question but all I'm getting are long winded rhetorical nothings; kinda reminds me of a liberal press conference in here.

     

    And with that, I digress back to the ACTUAL gun sections of the forum.

    LOL.

    Look people, I have no incentive to get the tickets cleared up.

    They are in CO, I live in WI, and I can buy guns without having to wait more than a few days.

    They don't affect my ability to vote or hunt or travel.

    Maybe if I moved to CO I would go ahead and pay those off.

     

    Seemed like a pretty simple question, but I had no idea this was the wingnut section of the boards.

    I'll just post in the 7.62 sections now on.

    Funny though, so thanks.

    I live in WI.

    Any time I want to purchase a handgun in WI, I just do the paperwork and come back two days later.

    Everything is handled through the Wisconsin Handgun Hotline

    But when I try to purchase long guns, it goes through the NICS and I get delayed every time.

    I do have unpaid tickets out of state and the warrants to go with it, but I eventually get the long guns too.

    Does WI only check state records for handguns?

    Shouldn't they be checking out of state records as well for felonies and such?

    It seems odd to me that it's easier for me to get a high capacity 9mm than a Mossberg 500.

    So they have a saiga specific section for handguards here:

     

     

    But I was interested in this one with the extended handguard because I have a 20 inch barrel:

     

    Will the universal ones work on a Saiga or do I need to pick one of the Saiga specific models?

    I'm too new to this whole thing to understand what is going wrong here.

    I have not installed a bullet guide and that is the factory magazine.

    What is causing the bolt to stay open like that?

    It doesn't happen every time. Sometimes I can rip off ten rounds without issues and other times this will happen on about every other shot.

    This one is pretty good -

     

     

    Pretty sure there is a lot of information you can search on this site, just got to dig around a bit.

     

    In this video, he removes the gas tube but never ends up doing anything with it.

    Do I need to modify the front end at all to put an AK forend/handguard on there?

    Reviews are mixed, a lot are bad.

    Just ran 100 rounds of it without any hiccups.

    I don't know, as long as it feeds and shoots I'm thinking about buying a lot of it.
