Alpha Kilo 42 Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Thanks, funny thing was, this one was my 1st and a "throw together" I have another one I'm about to start soon that I believe will be a step up by avoiding the things I ran into building this one (plus changing it up with some variety some) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

theorangeplanet 968 Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 What kind of side mount is that? Because it is suuuuuuuper low I'll have to give aimpoints another look if I can mount on like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Kilo 42 Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 RS Regulate AKM mount, I got it from Primary Arms Quote Link to post Share on other sites
evlblkwpnz 3,418 Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 I like the vert grip. Very creative and looks almost like it could come from the factory. Reminds me of the E. German bakelite untis with the built in vert grip. Great job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Kilo 42 Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Thanks, but it's cause it is! The grip itself is actually off a beryl, but I thought the 74 style HG matched the stock better, so I only used the VFG part of it. The VFG is nice on the rare occasions I use drums Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SaigaKen 338 Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Very nice.....but....your making me want to spend money I dont have I have the same sights and didnt know what type of optics would work Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alpha Kilo 42 Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Well build another S12! (duh) lol That's what I'm about to do cause for some reason I gotta have laminate and rifle sites too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rs51085 136 Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 thats awsome. I love the creativity. and the optics setup is killer. nice job! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shades_of_grey 1,092 Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 That looks like a pretty functional and clean, (and unique), set-up. It's cool to see that the super-low side mounts allow some optics to cowitness with H&K irons. I just had the plate cut off the receiver to lighten the shotgun and went with the Tromix rail for red dot/H&K irons cowitness: I don't think I've ever seen one quite like yours though. Very nice.

Nailbomb 10,221 Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Nice setup. It honestly comes across as having more thought than your giving it credit. My only question is why leave the factory rear as is? IMHO i would at least flat top that, you've obviously made a solid commitment to the H&K irons. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alpha Kilo 42 Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 The factory rear sight? It's one of those things I just didn't do yet, I plan on smoothing that area down when I blast and park it (one of these days) for a while we didn't have the ability to park a bbld receiver, that's since changed but I have a couple irons in the fire so to speak. Glad to see so many people like it, it's feels good to give something back to the forum even if only a few cool pics. (btw I barely got the handgaurd at a gunshow, the guy selling it didn't wanna sell it to me after I told him what I wanted it for because it "wouldn't fit and couldn't be made to fit".....

Alpha Kilo 42 Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 PA, I didn't see those pics till now, I like your set-up alot, it looks clean without the rail (funny how people are about stuff like that, if we dont have it, we want it, if we have it we wanna take it off! Haha) I was thinking of doing that monster brake on one also, do you have any other pics of it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shades_of_grey 1,092 Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 ...I was thinking of doing that monster brake on one also, do you have any other pics of it? Here's one: I'm heading out now, (beautiful day here), but I'll post a couple more later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
.40isthenew.45 1 Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Thanks, but it's cause it is! The grip itself is actually off a beryl, but I thought the 74 style HG matched the stock better, so I only used the VFG part of it. The VFG is nice on the rare occasions I use drums Speaking of the stock..... who makes that one? It appears to have a little more drop than the standard ak tapco.

It's from a milled Bulgarian rifle, I got it from the bargain section on kvar's page, just looked to try to find a link for you but didn't find it on kvar or arsenal's pages Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dieb4iwake 60 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 how did u mount a milled stock on a stamped receiver? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Kilo 42 Posted July 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 The mounting is similar in that the top tang is the same length/screw hole location on the rear most screw, there isn't a screw under the recoil spring button, BUT being that it's a thumb hole stock, the grip screw mounts it as well. So it's a lot sturdier than if it were a regular milled stock Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Kilo 42 Posted November 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) The proof is in the pudding, here's 3 at 100yds (eta they were off a bench, but not on a rest, just resting the mag on the bench, I'd like to see if it'd get any tighter in a real rest) I think I'd be comfortable ventilating a deer at 100yrds Edited November 6, 2011 by Alpha Kilo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
