I have a Glock20c that I'm thinking about putting on the chopping block, and or trading for a G19. I bought this used about 6 yrs ago and want to know what gen this is. Any clues on figuring that out?
Working on finishing a couple of projects, namely a Norinco Mac 90 and a Mossberg 930 spx. First question is a rail question, anybody know if the full/long TROY rail will fit the Norinco? As for the 930 it's also a rail question, the only top receiver rail I've found is by GG&G for about $40 for...
Yesterday I had to put down a loved family member of 15yrs that really had me in a funk. I tried to shake it off at the range today (successfully I might add) and came across a 9mm ammo at Walmart called Perfecta. Many have probably seen it, as have I but never shot until today. It was accurate...
I have been browsing the sticky for a northern Indiana smith to swap my milled Bulgarian barrel for a new/cut/pinned version. I have contacted a few, apparently the AK is something a lot of people aren't sure how to work on. Many moons ago, roughly 6 yrs ago I had my kit built by the Oklahoma...
I have a Saiga74 that I'm thinking about swapping over to a 5.56 with a Kvar barrel/sight block combo. Is it as easy as it seems? Do all the 74 parts other than mags just swap over?
For the start of the new year I swore off any new firearms until ALL current projects are complete (unless a to good to be true deal lands in my lap). I was looking around for a few AK parts and stopped on the Magpul page and....I'm pretty sure, no I'm positive that Magpul is going to get a lot...
Anybody know how difficult it is to install a spring and detent for a muzzle brake on a non drilled sight base? The 2 rifles are a Saiga74 and a Norinco.
Means of attaching a Noveske KX3 to a stainless barrel. I'm not sure welding will work with 2 different metals, how about brazing maybe? Any ideas? The KX3 has no holes ready made for pinning, but I still need a permanent brake On my 14.5 to make it legal.
As soon as I can move a Saiga to fund the start of a new project, I'm going to build one .308 AR Lower and 2 uppers, 1 upper with a 18 or 20 inch, and another with 14.5 barrel. My upper/lower match set was at first was going to be a Rainier Arms set, but they don't sell a stripped upper, sets...
Over the years Iv become a home rolled AR guy. My last 2 builds have both been finished with LWRC lower parts. The parts fit absolutely flawless, but at $190 for a kit its a bit salty, so I searched for a mil spec alternative. My search, and my desire to buy as much local goods as possible led...
I'm wanting to shorten the barrel, pin a muzzle device and add a new front sight on my Saiga. Anyone off hand know the barrel measurement for the new front sight? Looking on the KVAR sight, like everything AK , everything is a little different, will a Romanian or Bulgarian front sight work?
A few days ago I bought a Saiga 74 off AL that came with a Burris Fastfire. I have a 553 EO on a different rifle that works great but the weight and size is a bit of a turn off, so the little dot is something I really really like. The supplied Burris dot may serve a purpose but not on my rifle...
I have the final parts for my 300BO on the way finishing my last project. A few days ago I sold my M&P 15, and want to build my first AR10 type rifle. Is the platform reliable? Depending on who you ask, or who's Utube channel you watch or article read, it's a blur of pppppsssslllllllll...... So...
I'm looking for a new chrome or dark bore 14.5 AK barrel. I bought a barrel from a company called " What a Country" they told me it was a AK barrel and it is not, it's a really nice AKM barrel. Anyone know a good place to look for new AK barrels? I contacted KVAR about one, as into AKs as they...
I would like to cut roughly 2 inches of my AK barrel then pin/weld my brake making a 16" rifle. Is there any variance in length/twist in 7.62-39? I'm not even sure what the current twist is, I had it built a while back. It's a milled UF Bulgarian kit, with a dark bore. But any who...if I take...
I'm looking to put a .308 muzzle brake on my AK. In my haste I neglected to check barrel size before ordering and while waiting for delivery it hit me and I was correct, it's a bit large. Sooo....who makes a quality adapter to go from 14-1 to 5/8-24 thread? Spikes Tactical makes a few but not...
