amd6547 2 Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I just installed the KVAR Warsaw length stock on my 5.45 conversion. I like it a lot. However, what has to be done to get the cleaning kit in the stock? Seems like it goes in almost all the way, leaving about 1/4" sticking out...and slightly stuck. What's up with that? The AK cleaning kit has been around for decades unchanged. I would think engineering the stock to accept it would be simple. I have not yet taken off the buttplate to see what is going on or how I can fix it...but I will. Any tips? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
amd6547 2 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 For those with this issue... You have to take off the buttplate. Sand the internal contact points of the stock that hold the cleaning kit in place. These are the two plastic rails on the bottom sides, and the inside surface of the stock side grooves. Check fit. Don't take off too much. I wipe down the sanded surfaces with ballistol. Now the cleaning kit fits as intended. Thanks for the help (not). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
