This has a picture of my 16.5" .308 Win VEPR & my old MAK-90.  That's the stock that the MAK came with when I got it 10 years ago.  The only other stock I've had on it is a Slide Fire, but that didn't feel sturdy enough to me.  It can be fun, but yeah...

Well, now I'm considering changing it again.  I'm starting to like the looks of the adjustable AR15 side folding stocks on a "tactical" build like this has become.  I'm just not sure how to best do this.  I'm a big fan of Hogue grips, so I'll use that for the pistol grip.  I'm just unsure about the "buffer tube" & left side folding adapter stuff needed.  Can somebody suggest the parts I'll need & give me an idea of what the total cost might end up being?

Alright now; reviving an old thread :wave1:
I just bought my first Ak. Saiga Sporter in 7.62 x 39. I'm not trying to screw around with modification or anything at the moment; I just want to buy a few more mags and a whole mess of ammo and hit the range. Do any of you AK veterans have any advice for me?

I'm tinkering with the idea of an AK.  Just for the hell of it..................  Then I hold one, and I change my mind.  Lol.  Then I reconsider by the time I get home.   :bangheadonwall:

Get a CZ527 carbine in 7.62x39, lets you shoot the round and gives you a very accurate compact platform.

Oh if I got one it would be just for the sake of having an AK.  :facepalm:

$8 New Serbian AK-47 Blued Steel Magazines w./BHO @ Apex
« Reply #92 on: June 02, 2017, 01:35:08 AM »
Hoo doggy, prices are skydiving compared to 8 years ago and I'm lovin' every second of it.

For those of you with AKM's that need more mags, I just came across a sale at Apex where they're offering new production Serbian blued steel AK-47 magazines at just $8 a pop, with a bolt hold-open feature and thought I'd mention it:

The good kind of Yugo.....an O model.  RPK 1.5mm Trunion, all matching numbers with exception of the butt stock (they never match).  No longer imported.  Crested stocks are a little less common.  Switched the plastic Yugo grip for wood for looks.  Bought the home made sling off eBay.

You did a good job cobbling that together. It looks good...real good.  :th_thicon_idea:

Thanks.
I all I did was change the grip and add the sling.
Yugo BHO magazines aren't cheap (by my standards) either.
