Forum: AK-47 Talk

Question for the experts here, I would like to know what model or type AK47 barrel I have here. It's a caliber 7.62x39, 4 grooves and chrome lined. Barrel is not threaded on the receiver end. Only mark on the barrel is a number 3 on top of the chamber. Since pictures tells a thousand of words,...

Just got a saiga .223. Never shot it. Any recommendations on mags? Is the ar-15 mag conversion any good? Is an ak -74 mag conversion a good idea? Or just stick with factory and surefire?

Anyone ever see one of these? What is the value

I have had a Century Arms GP1975 AK 47 for about six months now. The gun started out great, but now i can't even go through an entire 30 round magazine without it "stove piping" several times. Does ANBODY have any suggestions or should i just go to the gunsmith :dunno

Hey Guys, Just though I would share a Pic of my Latest hate toy! The Form 4 came back in 52 Days, (still waiting for a Form 1 that went out the same day as this one....?) How much of a dweeb am I? I am posting Pics. and haven't even shot it yet!!! All I have done is to change out the cone...

does this fake suppressor come apart? looks like the front unscrews or something. also looks like the checkered tube is a separate piece than the tube that threads to the barrel. anyone own one? how do you like it? ...

i have always wondered why they didn't cover the gas tube on the AMD's (like the one on the banner at the top of the page lol) i have seen a few that people have put wood furniture on and quad rail handguards, but i was curious as to what people were doing exactly to do this since there are no...

After waiting a year and a half for this Type 56 clone this is what shows up. Keep in mind I was VERY SPECIFIC about what I wanted and more importantly what I didn't want. This rifle is a clusterfuck from muzzle to buttplate. Don't know what to do with it yet still too pissed off to decide. ...

Looking for the following AK items: 1] Cheap varities of AK Chest rigs 2] 5.5mm pin for triangle folder 3] Chinese 30,and 40rd. mags.New or used. 4]Bulgy new red bakelite w/c bayonet. Thanks for looking!

Does anyone know of a manufacturer welding an AR feed tower to a Chinese style 7.62x39 drum? I am fortunate enough to own a 75 round drum pre '94 round drum that runs well. Especially with the current production AR mags in this caliber, it would be nice to add a couple more to my magazine...

I have had this gun for about 10 years, and decided I should take it to the rifle range and sight it in. While at the range today I think I made some of the other target shooters nervous, because about every 5 or 10 rounds I would pull the trigger, 2 rounds would fire..... I got some very strange...

I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the Cugir WASRs? Are they a better bet than a century? Thanks!

I do not have an AK but just posting this for those that do. The Slidefire stock for the AK, model# SSAK-47 XRS Rifle Stock $289.95 http://www.slidefiresolutions.com/ssak47xrs.php It says that it will work with converted Saiga Shotguns and Rifles Video...

Hi, Was thinking about getting a PSL54 and noticed there is (2) different types. (1) called a sporter with a US receiver and (1) called a sniper with a romanian receiver. Both look identical and made by Century. Was also thinking about getting a better scope than the PSO-1. Any...

Anyone have a definitive way to identify AK magazines? Some mags have China on the bottom and have distinct markings. Anything that will help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Guys, Does anyone know if someone makes a AMD 63/65 style front grip that would fit on a quad rail, it doesn't have to be made out of wood, just that grip angle on any modern piece of plastic. Thanks, Adolf

Does anyone know if it is worth while going after 20 round AK 47 Mags if the prices is good, and are there any models/Countries that I should stay away from and why? I have been a big fan of 30 round metal ones from just about any country (have a couple of Bulgarian plastics as well), and I have...

I'm not sure if I should post this one here, any way, I came across some ammo with markings that I can not tell point of origin. If anyone could help, that will be great. Was told by the seller it was "Czech" a on the head stamp: "QYM" (Cyrillic-looking), "l" and "52" (the year) Bullet is...

Looking to sell my never issued demil ROMY G kit. All matching and original barrel 1980 date. What are these selling for these days?

I've been searching for the "Shepard"s Crook" that replaces the evil wire springs in the AK-47 receiver with a system that makes complete disassembly/re-assembly much more simple, but haven't been able to find it again. Any help in finding or locating sources would be greatly appreciated. ...

I bought a little single-stack WASR-10 back in 2002 when the Clinton "Assault Weapons Ban" was still in effect. This little Romanian rifle only set me back $180 brand new, and I jumped on it with both feet. I've discovered it's the most accurate rifle in 7.62 x 39 mm I've ever seen, and it has a...

I have two Romanian AKs, both semi-auto, and I'm very happy with both of them. One of them is a single-stack magazine version, the other a regular double-stack model. Thing is, the single-stack gun shoots sub-MOA groups, which I've never seen ANY AK do before. I've installed a 3-9x42 compact...

I'm interested in putting a muzzle brake on my AKs and wish to know which types are most recommended. Cheaper Than Dirt seems to offer the most choices at (what I believe are) reasonable prices. In another thread, a fellow UziTalk member serving in the War on Terror sent a picture of several...

I have two Romanian WASR-10 AKs made in 2002 and 2003 respectively. The 2002 gun accepts only single stack mags, either 5- or 10-round. My 2003 WASR-10 accepts all conventional double-stack AK mags. It's a mystery to me. Nevertheless, the older rifle is a tack driver of the first order, and...
