That's what I'm asking. A couple of weeks back he was posting a mini jack and some premature wear and said he was gonna shoot it to death and other anons were giving him shit for using a non factory trigger, but I'm curious about the experiment so I'm hoping he chimes in with an update.

Hey does anyone know how long the early 74s were produced with the non-90 degree gas block? I didn’t think it was for too long but I keep seeing them pop up in videos and photos from the recent Russio-Ukraine war so I assume there were more manufacturing then we previously thought. Some sources I read said in 75 they switched to the 90 degree block but the picture I saw had the date 77 on the trunnion with an AKM style gas black. Can’t find the picture now of course but it looks something like pic related and it was in a pile of captured rifles.

>>64793392
Very briefly, like within the first 1-2 years.

>>64793277
The easiest ones are:
>the serial/arsenal markings on the trunnion are infilled white, are very clearly in Arial font and the "arsenal marking" is a Palmetto tree with crossed rifles
>the engraving on the bottom of the receiver in front of the magwell exists
>Serial will have a "GF-series number-" prefix on every serialized part
>selector markings are in English (A for auto, F for "fire" I guess?)
>(if a fixed rear trunnion rifle) nonstandard 2-piece rear trunnion, either a "puzzle piece" cutout for an older one, or their newer ones attach with the front stock screw
>>64793392
You've also always got the "arsenal refurb using parts the arsenal had on-hand" as an answer instead of a factory job as a reason for it. It's much more likely an arsenal repair that got put in a box in the 70s/80s and forgotten because it absolutely has no affect on function.

Unfortunately no, Im in the same boat as you. However from watching YouTube videos on it it looks pretty similar to the other ones I have experience with. I’ve used the UTG, Midwest Industries Alpha, PSA Soviet arms, and Troy rail.
Honestly curious what you guys think of extended rails IMO I’m not all that impressed with any of them, personally find they all kinda suck. I found that heat mitigation is universally worse than wood or polymer, (not necessarily a bad thing if you live in a cold state but I live in a hot and sunny state). They add a large amount of weight to the front end, ends up feeling like my M1A in a EBR chassis rather than an AK. Pretty much all except the UTG had to be modified to fit different rifles (drilling, dremel, filing and shimming with custom cut metal plates). Personally like to run mine stock, and if I need to run a flashlight I just add one of those cheapo barrel clamps on the gas tube for a harbor freight flashlight.

Its not just one of the good ones. I'd argue its the best period. It is the ONLY true 4.5mm trunnion AKS-74N factory rifle ever imported. I have a 104FR-31 and its been one the highest quality rifles I own let alone AKS-74N clones. Arsenal/Fime only imported a limited amount of each SKU over the 2 years they came in. Learn the SKUs if you're autistic. For instance, 104-31 vs 104-34. The 31 is what most people think of with the black poly furniture. The 34 had a triangle folder. There was a 32 and 33 too, different colored polymers, but those are rare. My personal recs and main takeaway are too try to find a -31 as close to NIB as possible and just pay the tax. Don't necessarily trust boomers. Learn to inspect a bolt, bolt face, chamber, barrel etc. so you can tell if they are lying about round count. Most dont. Just ask for well-lit pics of everything. Most are good tho. When I got mine the boomer original owner said he fired 2 mags and put it in the safe and the bolt and bolt face still looked unfired. He wasnt lying. If its used, try to find one on GB close to where you live if you have time to wait and watch as the auctions come up. Thats what I did and I was able to see it in person before I paid. Boomer was actually quite reasonable now that I think of it. Get used to watching gunbroker. I used to check in daily for new listings. Watch some mishaco videos or something, look on youtube for "104fr". Thats most of the initial points I'd give someone to start off. And ffs, either keep it stock, or add Russian wood or plum furniture to it and set it up like a proper 80s AKS74N.

>>64799233

Just go at it with a dremel. Put some masking tape around the area in case you slip. Grind the side of the weld that's on the muzzle, just deep enough to get rid of the penetration. The metal will start to turn black and blue as it heats up from becoming very thin so that's when you need to stop before you break through

thanks

Oh also, spray some penetrating fluid in there. They're often rusted to the threads. The metal changing colors is just a warning sign that you need to stop. You don't necessarily have to grind until you get to that point though. Its entirely possible that it frees itself before then so make sure to wiggle the nut every now and then to check if its free

>>64800475
Its an enjoyable platform and complements my AKs well. 1K was decent price for Colt. I already have a few SBRs. I wanted a 20" gun this time and it was either Colt or FN.

Got a Wasr 10/63 at a fantastic price, but the bolt has been wire wheeled down a bit to remove the bluing on the top. What's the best way to get a classic military blue back on this? I hate having a shiny bolt on a non Chinese/Yugo gun.

>>64800651
>best way
reblue it by rust boiling it in a stainless steel pot. Its not difficult but it is very time consuming and you'll have to buy a carding wheel + bluing solution (or mix your own out of household chemicals)

>just make it blue again
cheap cold bluing paste. Won't be as deep or durable as rust bluing but its much less time consuming.

>Its an enjoyable platform

>>64800727
>Any recommendation on bluing solution?
I just use the Brownell's solution because I'm lazy but you can make it out of salt, vinegar and hydrogen peroxide. Doesn't really matter as long as it causes red rust. I know the DIY method works because I've used small amounts of the salt and vinegar solution to force patina small replacement parts. I just haven't done large parts before.

Might be a stupid question, but duckducking hasn't really helped me much. Ages ago in undergrad, I bought a vepr in .308 as my "first rifle" and I left it with my parents after I graduated and moved out of state. I dug it out of dad's safe and saw that I had misplaced the muzzle device at some point along the way. Does anyone make replacements? I don't particularly care about factory-specific or anything, I'm just struggling trying to find something compatible since it's now technically a "pre-ban" rifle and I'm curious how it shoots since I assume I shot the barrel out over 20 years ago. Thanks.

>>64800455
You’re gonna spend at least $3k on the rifle, $75-100 per mag and around 50cpr for 5.45. If I were getting into 5.45 today (retarded) I would buy mags and ammo FIRST.

>>64801120
Yeah, I can swing that, though. $3k for a good rifle is not a big deal, plenty of dumbasses spend that much on some handgun that they'll never shoot.
I already have a good-size collection, zero debt, and disposable income; it's not like I'm getting a 5.45 *instead* of an AR or edc pistol.

>>64801207
That’s cool then man as long as you understand what you’re getting into. Boomers treat 5.45 AKs as “investments” so its like the same 6 old people trading these back and forth. I managed to pick up an SLR105 and an AIMS74 kit build cheap from some dead geezer with antigun kids. I bought 10 tins for an average of $450 each and about a dozen bakelite mags average $75 a pop. All in all I think 5.45 is overrated, 5.56 is objectively a superior caliber but 5.45 AKs have unmatched aesthetics. If I could do it again I’d probably just skip 5.45 and only have 7.62 AKs and 5.56 ARs. Good luck.

It's a threaded barrel. I do not, the internet isn't being as helpful as usual. There's a front sight block, the pin that holds the MD is there but it does not go further over the barrel. Guess they thought about it, but decided to just circumcise the boy.

I have the same 308 folder rifle. It's a pretty standard muzzle nut that'd fit any typical 14x1 ak threading. There should be tons of them for sale for cheap since all ak threaded barrels should be able to use it assuming it's not something like a 74 with the threading on the front sight base.
Here's a picture I just took, that way you've got a pic of the real deal. Just in case there's some difference that makes one a better choice for originality sake when you're out buying another.

Do you have access to calipers or a ruler with fine marks? If so measure the major thread diameter according to pic rel. Basically measure from one peak to the peak on the opposite side. That's a quick and dirty way of telling the thread spec on an AK.

That diameter will correspond to a common AK thread pattern. Obviously you wouldn't want to do this on some random fastener because major diameter isn't mutually exclusive but this is an AK we're talking about so you can assume the rest of the thread specs will follow.

>M24x1.5 RH
diameter of 24mm
>M14x1 LH
diameter of 14mm
>5/8 x 24
diameter of 5/8 inch or 15.8~ mm

see the pattern? The first part number is the major thread diameter

Yup. Any muzzle device that fits a standard ak47 or rpk will latch onto it. For shits and giggles, you can even have some fun putting on yugo grenade launching attachments. Pic related. it's a different gun, but works on both.
Just be 100% sure that if you get a flash hider, it's a 30cal version. The 22cal version on my molot 556 rpk would blow up my vepr-308. The hole isn't big enough for 30cal to go through.

And of course while I was watching Denver choke dad put on an unknown muzzle device and tightened it way the fuck down. Broke my fucking fingernail right the fuck off. I have no idea how he managed to get it on so tight.

They really do, I'm delighted 5.56 can fit into 5.45 mags just fine with just a follower swap. If that wasn't the case I'd just have 7.62 AKs. 5.56 AKs with 5.56 mags look like absolute ass.

I didn't design the logo, couldn't tell you. The grip is comfy and holds skittles, and the rail makes it not able to hold cleaning rod.

Wow when you put actual military furniture on the PSA aksu actually looks decent

So do you AK people have web gear specific for your rifle? I'm looking at this Jaeger chest rig for the AK and really liking the simplicity.

>>64805445

If it's like pic related, if you buy it just leave it be. You could convert it but it's not cheap or easy to find someone to do it correctly. Additionally, Norinco Hunters in their original configuration are more and more rare and thus novelties among collectors.
Tl;dr they will increase in value if you don't fuck with it.

Okay, Bear Creek Arsenal is making AKs. I have 1 AR upper by them and it's fine. It never had the BCA issues that I normally see. But a AK?
Should I buy it when it releases and take the the bullet for /akg/?

>>64808250
It depends, Wasr is a standard AK for the most part. So if you want a classic style AK, it's the way to go.
the m70 is a better gun, in QC and finish and usually function (Wasr is GTG though). It's just heavier and can't take standard AK accessories for the most part.
I'd avoid WBP with these two options.

I've seen issues with metalurgy on some examples. And for the price, just get a factory made AK. Also, the barrels on both the Zastava & WASR are fantastic. Most Jack's no longer use the FB radom barrel.

Shit metallurgy. An ALG hammer is enough to mushroom and deform the back of their firing pin 100 rounds in. I know since i was the one reporting this. When reported and mentionned they coped in my DMs about "it's ALG fault, we're using Polish AK TDP from the 60s our stuff isn't bad, it's u-u-u-ur fault".

Also atrocious TFBTV video were these retards were talking about "end of the life of the platform at around 5K rounds" and other stupid shit like their butter rear trunnion needing a "proper aftermarket stock that support the trunnion walls" if you replace theirs. Should be enough to raise eyebrows. Shits consumer grade poop.

WASR or M70
Do not get a WBP, they're civilian commercial "spec" toy wall hangers for reddit tranny faggots that like to pretend that they're real guns (women) but they're not. They're imposters, simple as that. They don't have the same parts; at the foudational core they're just not real.

It comes down to the following IMO. The M70 is a slightly "nicer" gun in terms of fit and finish and "quality" than the WASR. They're both legit in terms of metallurgy, reliability, and true firearm longevity and performance, but the M70 is crafted to a slightly higher standard. If you like the Serbian conflict from a historical perspective and like the look of the M70, then it is a fine choice. On the other hand however the M70 is NOT a true AKM. It is close, but it is built to its own Yugo spec. Okay so a WASR doesn't have magwell dimples, but other than that it is an excellent AKM spec AK. If you want a more true to spec AKM (97%) and prefer the look, then grab the WASR.

In either case, stick to surplus furniture, pistol grips, handguards, stocks etc. This is how to keep it tasteful and aesthetic. Try to modify it the bare minimum to get it functional in a modern sense, light, sling, optic, suppressor etc. That is how I've been doing my AKs recently and I like it that way.

>>64809100
Midwest Industries make civilian cheap trash. Their AR handguards have for over a decade now been the bane of uneducated consumers, and a re quite functionally poor in terms of lockup. They really peddle gun show/shop slop.

>>64809114
It isn't a real AK. The vast majority of load bearing components are of questionable fabrication. They make things like the trunnions, carrier, and potentially even bolts out of machined billet as opposed to true hammer forgings. This means weaker grain structure. They are NOT built the same way that original soviet AKs were, and are NOT built the way that the Kalashnikov designed.

So they slap some quality wood furniture sets on (that consumers can tell are decent quality) to hide the fact that the metallurgy and real fabrication techniques for the actual load bearing parts like the bolt, trunnions, barrel etc, at not up to par.

It really is pottery that it is mainly reddit trannies and fags that like these lipstick'd shitpig toys.

Oddly specific addition to the thread but I’ve been dedicating my autism toward finding out more about this cheap chinese AK shotgun imported by JTS thst you can pretty regularly get for 200-300 shekels.

Now I fully expect it to be a piece of shit, but what has really piqued my autism is the handguards. They seem to be closer to AKM handguards but the actual weapon seems to be closer in dimensions to the RPK.

The guns themselves are manufactured by the Chinese state owned Chongqing Jianshe group who also make the type 81 and a few type 95s along with China’s Barret from wish

Wondering if the handguard is shared between the m12ak and any other JS industries AKs or if I would have to extensively modify a wooden AKM handguard to fit my inbred Saiga. Also I pissed my pants in front of my entire class when I was 11 and that day still haunts me if that matters.

The M12AK handguards aren't compatible with the M12AKT1 or 2 handguards. The T models have a different gas tube and no handguard retainer, instead the handguard is attached via screws. JTS makes MLOK handguards for the M12AK which are listed separately.

About AKM handguards: Won't work unless you cut and reshape the back of the handguard. An AKM UG is the right size to twist into the gastube but the lower HG on the JTS is too short. The front retainer is the right shape but its about an inch too far back. You'll have cut a bunch off and then reshape the protrusion that slots into the receiver

Lol holy shit what is this, the 20s? Faux woodgrain painting was a thing around 1900 or so, sometimes to make fruit tree wood look like oak or something, sometimes even to make pine look like hardwood or much finer wood, which the shellac would make even more convincing. Sometimes the detail the maker went into was retarded. And a little tip, if you have a real old house with nicely woodgrained stairs, be hesitant to refinish them. A lot of them were pine painted to look like nice oak LOL. But on AK furniture? Man...

If he's selling it for less than Atlantic MSRP then go for it I say. I don't think its that big of a deal if it doesn't have the OG barrel, a new barrel doesn't add that much additional cost and it extends the service life of the rifle. A lot of the OG barrels are legit sewer pipes so I don't think it's worth paying extra for just to have some proof marks that will be likely be hidden under the handguards anyways.

>>64814628
Yeah, this one is definitely one to just leave alone. You will frustrate yourself trying to make things work and not be satisfied with the result. Even standard stocks wont fit correctly. Every little thing about this firearm has some sort of non standard dimension. As >>64814739 mentioned your best bet is to just go with accessories produced by the manufacturer, which arent that many to begin with. They're great firearms, I have one and have never had a problem, to the point that i'd genuinely trust my life to it. Follow the pre use instructions and get the correct ammo. Technically i've had more malfunctions, albeit rare with my AR that I have that shotgun (JTS M12AK T1). I've never had an issue with that JTS.

So its been a minute for me and curious on how yall feel about the BFT47 because there's one nearby me for 600. Sadly lost my Vepr because I couldn't pay off the pawn in time.

I heard alot of mixed reviews on them (reminds me of the old WASR time) and the 2 I fired were feeling really good and no issues (the owners had them for years and they fire them in the boonies drunk and they were not effected by the recall). Are they really that bad or is it the just the meta to say its shit automatically?

>>64816523
If all you want to do is make noise in the woods a few times every year then a century AK is fine. I don't know why the BFT series gets shit on, but I do know that Century has a long and well documented history of producing garbage Kalashnikovs that beat themselves to death. Just save another $150 and get a WASR or Draco.

>>64816494
>the BFT47 because there's one nearby me for 600
Is it new or used? Because you can get them for $600 new. Buy one and have fun, or not. I say this as a man who bought a Pioneer for shits.

>>64816841
Brand new BFT47 core just curious on the long term use since im planning of using about 7k rounds through it in the next 2 years.

Are the WASR-10 paras a good starter/beater AK? The muzzle device is gaudy, but there are sub-$700 ones NIB on fuddbroker currently.

>>64818042
Site radius of course, these are sub $700 on Dahlonega, and you don't have to add 3% FOR CREDIT CARD like on boomer broker.

>>64818074
The sight radius doesn't really bother me since I was probably going to just put a micro red dot on it with either the side mount or an Attero arms rear sight mount. But ty for letting me know about Dahlonega, I always forget about them.

>>64818042
I've heard these barrels are different and have issues? I will not elaborate

I did the test and it came out fine. I just need time when the family is away to do it. but will do.

>>64816494
It's just not that good, I would save 150 or look at pawnshops for a wasr or something else.

The only "issue" with those barrels is that they're pencil profile so they overheat more quickly.
I don't find that as an issue - I'd chop it and turn it into a md 90.

How much of a problem is the recoil of 7.62x39? Do muzzle brakes make AKs in 7.62x39 super concussive?

>>64818982
>recoil of 7.62x39
It hurst my bussy so I only shoot 5.56 aks <3 heehee

>>64818982
It's negligible at most. Any muzzle break makes any gun more concussive, the style of the brake is a factor too. A slant brake not really, something like the 74 style, or others will be more so to people next to you. And the shorter the barrel on the gun the more it will be as well. Get something like a Bulgarian 4 piece. It will push the muzzle blast forward more so than to the sides and make it a bit more pleasant to those around you. And it does really well to hide flash too.

>>64819118
To add to this, my younger sister, who had no experience shooting guns at all, shot my wasr with a slant brake just fine and managed to hit a paint bucket 25 yards away more than 50% on her first try. If she can control the recoil, a grown man should be able to.

>>64818982
Wait some people actually consider recoil to be a "problem"?

>>64809724
I think it's just one crazy guy who posts here. Everybody is happy with their wbps and I haven't seen any videos badmouthing it. It's also unanimously considered to be the best quality ak on the market rn so I dunno.

Anyone know if I'd definitely need to look into a KNS for a WBP if I'm planning on running a CAT ODB on it? From the few reviews I've seen, since it's built around 16" AK's being its main use along with "low backpressure" I'm thinking I can probably get by without a KNS. Any thoughts?

>>64819525
>>64819471
>stock causing malfunctions
Pure cognitive bias on your part. He said it would cause accuracy issues. As in: if you don't have the stock installed you can't shoulder it therefore its not accurate.

Honestly, use your brain. How on earth would a stock cause accuracy loss or malfunctions? How would it ever interfere with anything? In your autistic rage, you took some uncharitable translation as fact without thinking it through

>>64820188
Yeah i installed one on mine.

Needless to say the MiniJack, on top of being made of Polish butter, was also overgased. More than what i would consider "normal" for an AK.

With a can, especially non flowthrough, i heavily suggest you go for a KNS.

And measure your shit properly, too. Mine was listed as a C39V2 but actually came shorter when measured.

Fuck off you disinfo tranny faggot. Don't you have an ICE raid on a child molester to go interfere with? The lanky soi faggot WBP manager ON CAMERA claimed that the stock being installed or not affected the fucking harmonics of the rifle which causes inaccuracy. Literal made up bullshit, just like all the precepts of communism. Same video the asshole gaslights the world claiming that the lifetime of an AK is 10k rounds.

Let's not even get started on the billet parts and shit barrels.

WBP is a joke.

This would be on the high end of the lifespan of a real firearm like an AKM, but isn't completely unreasonable, for a real AKM. For a WBP? Yeah fucking right.

>>64820438
There's that cognitive bias we talked about bud. Hey, remember when a BCM rep misspoke and said their barrels were only rated for 1 round every 10 seconds? I dont recall any tripfags dropping BCM over that.

This negative sentiment about WBP of this degree doesn't exist anywhere outside of a few /k/ nano-celebs and the odd instagram micro-celeb. Other forums will tell you they have an accuracy issue but thats it.

I don't know if you are on their payroll but if you aren't : ask yourself WHY you are blindly defending them and if it's realyl worth it. Let it sink it.

The negative sentiment about WBP absolutely exists outside of this website. Not only that but i already provided a few points of concerns, notably a firing pin getting mushroomed in a microscopic amount of rounds by an ALG hammer, which is the first time i see such deformation out of the considerable amount of rifles i've handled with said hammer in them, but you dodged, coped, and ad hominem it out magistrally.

Deep down i know why you cope so much. Because you like to cling to the idea that you can still get quality, recent production, AKs, without breaking the bank too much or getting into builds kit. Guess what bozo : this is 2026. Get a WASR and shut the fuck up.

>>64820809

If I want a 7.62x39 SBR like a 104 but don't want to spend thousands of dollars to get a saiga converted to a 104, would a full-size draco be a good alternative? Or are dracos just cope for those who can't afford a 104 build?

All you listed is literally cosmetic even down to the canted sights that you can fix in 10 minutes flat if you aren't a retarded monkey.

But deep down you're seething because you know that in an AK the only thing that fucking matters is the capacity to handle rounds and abuse without choking. WeBuildPoop doesn't have the WASR track record nor will ever have it according to that mushroomed ass firing pin 200 rounds in.

Two tripfags plus one anon, but yes its only here that niggas lose they minds over WBP. If you say "I'm going to buy a WBP" anywhere else like Akfiles, AKforum, etc, nobody Is going to bat an eye. People might bring up those two bolt failures but you can do that for any gun on the market as has already been demonstrated here. The consensus is positive outside of a very specific, very loud tripfag influencer clique. People recommend them everywhere else.

WHICH, IF YOU KNEW ZENITCO OR AKS TO BEGIN WITH YOU STUPID NIGGER, IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO. IMBECILE. DUMBASS. DUMB FUCK. NEVER ANSWER ME EVER AGAIN. YOU SHOULD NEVER EVER FILE ZENITCO EXCEPT ON VERY SPECIFIC CASES AKA MILLED RECEIVERS OR WHATNOT, AS THE STURDINESS OF THE SYSTEM RELIES ON IT TAKING THE SHAPE OF THE RECEIVER HENCE HAVING TO HAMMER IT IN. ITS FUCKING ALUMINIUM. T'S SPECIFIED EVERYWHERE. FUCK.

Besides if you weren't equipped with the reading capabilities of a nigger you would know that the KPYK i tried was fitting like shit on my Izzy Saiga 103, not my WBP.

As for JMAC you're correct. It looks nice, fits nice, and is far better made than your ukrainian fucking wannabe be sci-fi consumer grade garbage shilled by an AK manufacturer that also does consumer grade garbage. Go figure. Goes hand in hand.

>>64823154
>WBP said their buttstock will cause malfunctions if installed incorrectly!
They never ever said that you lying snake piece of shit. The issue was never about anything being "installed incorrectly". They straight up pointed out that you need to use some kind of stock or adapter that sits deep enough to support their dogshit rear butter trunnion walls and proceeded to shill that awful looking ass KPYK stock for 10 minutes flat. Last but not least they made an abysmal, only heard once and only uttered once in the history of gun manufacturing, that a "stock could lead in a loss of accuracy relative to harmonics". Which doesn't mean FUCK ALL from a mechanical standpoint or ANY standpoint to begin with.
>WBP said the lifespan of their rifles is 10k!
They literally said that in their video.
>Ohh it was lost in translation he was talking about the barrel life
Which was a correction made LATER DOWN THE ROAD after they got (rightfully so) shat on for that awful statement. You're basically blaming people from hearing what someone straight up said. Since the average gun owner isn't trying to take fat polish cocks up his ass and isn't terminally online to make sure he didn't buy consumer grade shit (he did), he probably never saw said correction. Blame the author of the statement, not the receiver.
>WBP is the only maker that has had bolt failures!
Nobody ever said that. I never did, at least. I just said that FROM MY FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE i notice some heavy pinning / mushrooming on very little round counts, thing that i NEVER EVER saw on any AK i've handled. And you can bet your ass i've handled more AKs than your redditor ass.

You are the only one passing as a clueless nigger here sonny.
