Sumsky 115 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 Hey guys this is the newest addition to my NFA Collection. This is a R Guns Tula 5.45X39 AKS 74U. The Receiver was custom built by David Riggs (74U LLC), the Barrel is a Virgin East German Barrel completely reworked by Chuck Haynes (loner42). Thanks to Court Swett for helping pressing in the Barrel. Spam Can is on the Way, cant wait to test out this baby. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ThirtyAughtSix 101 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 I always wondered how 5.45 was in a short barrel. I'm living in Florida now but I am trying to keep all my firearms up to Connecticut law in case I ever decide to go back and for some reason 7.62x39 is illegal in an "AK type" firearm. Oh yeah, that gun is sweet! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've emailed David and never gotten a response, I gather that the is pretty busy so I'll wait it out. I wish he had decided to offer the fake 3rd pin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Your best bet is to contact him in a PM on the Forum also. David is super busy especialy after getting featured in the AK Magazine. I also wanted the extra axis pin, but he said ATF frowned on the idea when he had contacted them about it, so he did not want to chance anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CPF 80 Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 This may be a dumb question... is it automatic? I know its NFA, but I didn't know if that was just because of the SBR requirements. I see the auto-notch, so I am guessing yes? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CPF 80 Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 So what happens when you put the selector on the auto notch? Does it fire, or is it basically a safety? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sumsky 115 Posted July 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 So what happens when you put the selector on the auto notch? Does it fire, or is it basically a safety? Its just a safety with the original markings on the Receiver. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
