shaneman153a 39 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Here she is, thanks Dinzag for the idea of the dog dick/palm swells conversion, they didn't turn out as good as yours though!! All with practice I suppose, I'll let y'all know how she shoots. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

6500rpm 670 Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Shane, welcome to the club........unfortunately it get's really stupid sometimes. Everytime I tell myself this is the last, some jackass posts another picture of something cool, and well, it's back to this will be the last one...but it never is. Enjoy the ride, sometimes the build is half the fun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uzitiger 193 Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 (edited) Nice build. It's more fun to shoot a rifle that you build yourself compared to one you buy off the shelf. I was thrilled to shoot my Yugo the first time after seeing that it worked properly. Stamped AKs are easy to build and if the barrel is in the trunnion it's already headspaced unlike a FN FAL, HK G3 or CETME which need to be headspaced to safely fire. If you build a milled AK then you also need to headspace it. Edited June 23, 2007 by uzitiger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
