So where do you buy your grip nuts? :)


Recommended Posts

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://www.k-var.com/shop/product.php?productid=16427

 

http://sksparts.com/akparts.html (towards the bottom, in the list)

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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,
