G O B 3,516 Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) Ordered a couple NDS 100% recievers from group buy on MD Shooters Forum. First I'm doing the NDS-1P with a Yugo underfolder. Recievers coming next month, takes longer due to custom SNs. So far I"ve collected a few things for this build.

G O B 3,516 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) And for the NDS-1 that I will build later {saving for a parts kit} note the S-.410 rear trunnion and sight base! Edited February 22, 2008 by G O B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted April 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 "Rusty romy" parts kit ordered, recievers in, the wife and I did paperwork today, now for "7daywait" that is more like 10 days.

Recievers coming next month, takes longer due to custom SNs. So far I"ve collected a few things for this build. The Yugo UF will need to be shimmed on each side as they are not as thick. Not sure if the UF holes are the same as the polish?? I would call and ask. If not get the receiver with no holes and put them in yourself. A step drill and a dremil to finish size work great. The receiver will also have to angled in the rear to fit the yugo trunnion profile. Good luck Edited April 10, 2008 by uechiguy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

G O B 3,516 Posted April 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 The UF is for the wife, to match her S-.410 that I alresdy did with an identical Yugo UF. That one didn't need shimming, just an angle trim of the rear of the reciever and some CAREFULL drilling! These 2 I am building on Nodak Spud 100% recievers. Mine on an NDS-1 , and hers on a NDS-1P. Good news today, J&G has shipped my "rusty romy" kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted April 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 ??? QUESTION ???? What size end mill do I need to bore for the pin on a a virgin barrell? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

G O B 3,516 Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 7MM cool. I have a slightly different situation, the trunion is used, but the barell in new, So i figure the best way to go is to press it together on a spent steel case, and then SLOWLY work an endmill into the existing hole in the trunnion, working from both sides to the middle. This will be for the underfolder only, as I have a complete rusty Romy kit coming for the fixed stock build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 JUST got home with the recievers. gotta fix dinner and go to bed. Will play with them tomorrow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted April 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Did some more de-mil on the rusty Romy, cut the back of the Nodak 1-P to match the Yugo underfolder. Ordered 2 Ergo grips 1 green, 1 black from: JSE Surplus $15 ea. S&H $6.82 $36.82 Total. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Grips came today. They sent Tapco SAW grips instead of Ergo's. Wife and I both decided we liked them , so they aren't going back - and they didn't charge extra, so it is still a great deal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted May 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Dropped another $111 on parts. Ordered a return spring assembly, 2 hammersprings, 4 axis pins, 3 barell pins, 5 sear springs, a muzzle retainer pin and spring, a gas tube,1 USA slant break, a reciever cover and a couple USA gas pistons. Also ordered a 7MM end mill for the virgin barells. (some parts are just for spares) Should have everything needed to build both AKs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cobra 76 two 2,677 Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 I'm following this GOB. Thanks for the updates. Can't wait to see the pis of work in progress...hint hint... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Taking pix as I go. Will post as soon as I get some time, the build party is next weekend, and I still need the 7MM endmill to get here so I can pin the virgin barell. Gonna have to throw a press together to press the barells in. The virgin barell I will press in with a spent steel shellcase untill the bolt is just too tight to turn by hand, Then "kisss" the barell with the endmill from both sides. Then pull the barell and dremmell most of the waste material out. Then press back in and use the endmill to remove the remaining material, working from each side to the middle. Then after assembly I will lap the bolt lugs in with clover compound untill they will just lock on a spent round with 2 fingers operating the boltcarrier. The bolt, carrrier and trunnion for the build with the virgin barell are all mis=matched,so a little lapping is in order. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Endmill showed up the other day, headspaced and lapped the locking lugs on the bastard parts build, heading out now to a build party. Frog time (rivet, rivet!). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

G O B 3,516 Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Still building! We had a great time, but the guy with the tools didn't show! SOOOO- a nice young man who goes by numidian (who was the host) made a 'squeezer out of his bolt cutter, and I made a rivet buck out of 1/4 plate, and a rivet set out of a 3/8" X 6" bolt. We made some press pins from bolts and drill rod and got everything but the triggerguards and the interior rivets on the wife's UF trunnion. Doing a waterpump for #3 son, so the rest has to wait a few days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted May 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Cleaning out the shop so i can make some rivet jiggers and finish up. Hauled the first load of scrap iron out todat 980# (You won't believe how much junk old men accumulate)! Have some 1/2" plate cut for the triggerguard jig, looks like I may use a SBC piston and rod for the UF trunnion jig. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MilitaryWeapons 0 Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 GOB, How did you make out with the builds. I have a polish underfolder kit that I have been wanting to complete.

G O B 3,516 Posted June 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Finished the Romy G yesterday, working on the bastard parts UF thiseek. Pix to come soon as I find one of them "round tuits". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted June 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Camera problems. Something called "flicker" has hijacked my camera downloads and will not let me use the pix. Whenever I can get this fixed I got some pix to share. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
THE_HUNTER 2 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 That's some serious patience needed to build, more than I got! Good job out there builders! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted August 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 (edited) Long awaited pix. Here are the twins. That is the wife's S-.410 UF with her "Kyber pass" AK, built with no 2 matching parts. The bayo is a work still in progress. This the type 1 bayo, if you want one CDNN has them, this one was a gun show find. Momma loves the way the ATI handguard goes with the ventilated one I did on her S-.410 Edited August 3, 2008 by G O B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
