h0pper 0 Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 first off id like to apologize to the ak purists here for what im about to say. so ive got alot of parts left from my barrel-less romy m65 kit (everything except the under-folding gear). im planning on either slapping a complete yugo front end on it or trying to convert it to 5.56x45. how hard would it be slap a Romanian 5.56x45 barrel in it and convert from 7.62x39 to 5.56x45? im assuming id need a new complete bolt(is this correct?), if so will the new bolt lock up correctly in my 7.62x39 trunnion. would i need a new carrier too? will the standard crapco flat and rails work? i know you can modify .223 saigas to run AR mags, would the process work roughly the same for the tapco flat? any additional info or suggestions? lol whats your favorite color?

akastormi 617 Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Hopper, Your gonna need a Barrel, carrier, bolt, trunnion. And a 74 receiver. You could use a 47 flat, but then mod the mag well opening. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h0pper 0 Posted July 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 well that tears it.. if i have to buy more than a bolt and carrier then i might as well buy the whole gun and have "just one more" ak. a fellows got to draw a line in the sand somewhere. thanks for the info stormi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
