oregonshooter 0 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Where is the cheapest source for these thing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
22_Shooter 1,560 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 I can't comment on the cheapest place, but regardless, ordering JUST that part by itself is gonna screw you on shipping. The best thing to do is tack it onto an order of other stuff you need. I got mine from Dinzag, but I also ordered a bunch of other stuff too. Here's some places: http://dpharms.com/pistol-grip-screw-and-nut-p-63.html http://www.k-var.com/shop/product.php?productid=16427 http://sksparts.com/akparts.html (towards the bottom, in the list) http://www.blackjackbuffers.com/index.php?...35fae7bd3c8d81d http://www.hoosiergunworks.com/catalog/military_misc.html There's not a whole lot of price difference, so it comes down to making sure you order it when you're already ordering other stuff.

oregonshooter 0 Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Thanks 22, I know what you mean about the shipping. I wanted to order everything for my conversion from Dinzag but he said he was up to his neck in orders so I decided to go the parts route and ordered from Brownells for a TAPC FCG, ergo grip (has not nut or stud), and bought a TAPCO 6pos. off a member here. Unfortunately that leave me with having to make a grip nut and bullet guide or find a cheap (shipping) option. I don't mind the making part (I like to tinker and have a machine shop at work to play in) but was wondering if everyone buys all at once, has a source I have not found yet, or make their own for the most part. Maybe these conversion are not as popular as I thought? The last group buy looked like a killer deal, but I can't leave my Saiga 223 unconverted for more than a week waiting for the next GB. Thanks again for the links. Some of them I had not found yet, much appreciated! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oregonshooter 0 Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Something I notice looking at all those sites is the difference in styles of grp nuts. Some don't even have an angle cut from what I can see. Some are listed for thumbhole stocks, etc. The KVAR one is what came with my Vector rifle. It has a 20deg reaer sloping angle.

XdamagedX 248 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) I had a guy at work make mine, 19* angle at the top, took him about an hour and he's pretty inexperienced. Edited March 22, 2008 by XdamagedX Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vultite 57 Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 buy your grip nuts and whatnot from wherever u can buy the rest of your stuff to save on shipping, i wouldn't want to pay 5-10 bucks for shipping on a 7 dollar part =D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MD_Willington 11 Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 I just went on over to one place in my area, I went to the Ultimak shop in Moscow Idaho and grabbed everything I needed... did it on my way home from work, lucky I guess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aresv 49 Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 buy your grip nuts and whatnot from wherever u can buy the rest of your stuff to save on shipping, i wouldn't want to pay 5-10 bucks for shipping on a 7 dollar part =D +1 Lots of places sell them for cheap, but it doesn't make sense to mail order one a la carte. So I just add 'em in with larger orders from tapco/kvar/dinzag/mississippi auto/doublestar/insert your favorite vendor here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oregonshooter 0 Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 That works if you find a place that has them and all the other parts you want. I didn't. I told Dinzag he needs to start selling the Ergo grips so he would have everything a guy needs for a conversion. I think he might look into it. Unfortunately he is still swamped with orders. 1. Ergo Grip 2. FCG 3. Stocks 4. Grip nut / screw I got all of mine at Brownells except for the grip nut. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ML Roak 0 Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I made mine, took me about an hour (I wanted one that was threaded 1/4-20), bought some from Mississippi Arms with another order for some friends (I'm not spending an hour making an $8 part without a damned good reason). See ya, ML Roak Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PacketStorm 0 Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I see people buying them from the local grocery store - no wait that is "Grape Nuts". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
