build help WA IZ132C

[Looseyfur 1]

I have recently acquired the AK47 Rifle WA IZ132C from the good folks at Atlantic Firearms. Of course I'm eager to build and add a few things, but am somewhat lost in a quagmire of available parts some of which may not be suited to this rifle... I have been looking at Cheaper Than Dirts website and a few other places and I really am hesitant to "pull the trigger" on any furniture for this rifle without knowing it will fit properly or isnt complete shite and wont require any hardcore gunsmithing to make fit... so I thought some of you guys with build experience may have fun directing me to a few things less an optic which I think I may have covered (bushnells red dot). I am looking for : rail system, compensator, and anything else that may be worth adding ??, short folding fore-grip and have about 150.00 to spend?

 

so ...

 

How would you outfit the WA IZ132C with a 150 (before shipping) dollar budget.

 

 

 

if it were custom balisongs I wouldnt need any help

gladly i'm happy to look at those sites, though that doesnt really drive me towards the right products which will work/fit well for my rifle?

Yeah, it kinda does. You see, all of the vendors on this forum are very helpful. If you find something you like and are unsure if it will work, simply contact the vendor and they will answer you. Some faster than others.

excellent and Im sure they are very knowledgeable.

 

here is the optic I may end up with http://www.bushnell.com/products/scopes/riflescopes/trophy/730132P/

 

and rail im considering http://www.ifatactical.com/product/MNT-978%20UTG

 

any thoughts?

Can't be much help on those particular items. I run iron sights on both my 7.62's.

I have a TWS rail on my .223 but that appears to be to pricey for the budget you mentioned.

[Looseyfur 1]

further research on that optic yields a lot of this type of sentiment : Unfortunately, after reading other reviews, you can find a myriad of different defects, some of which make the sight not very pleasurable to use. Because of its massive size, limited features, and chance of many small problems, this budget sight is not worth the money.

 

 

back to the drawing board for that.

Personally I would put the money into the other parts for your build and shoot with irons for a while.

You may find that you do not really need optics.

 

Good luck with your build.
