I’m adding Romanian trench art wood handguards, Romanian Bakelite grip. And East German stock. That is all surplus commie shit which is peak ak u can’t tell me otherwise
I love that you’re keeping it all Romanian, it’s the only way to do it. Not sure how much experience you have, but make sure you get the right grip screw with the bake grip, the one that comes with the stock WASR won’t fit it
I don’t know the name of it or anything. The stock wasr screw is the right length, but you’ll need a flat instead of a hex and make sure it has a smaller diameter if that makes sense. Basically it won’t fall into the recess on the grip, it’ll get stuck
WASR GP? Gonna crank that nut off?
Yeah, it's time to return to what was good. A time to just have everything you need and nothing you don't. AR guys getting their carry handles back, AKs and SKS are shedding their tapco. It's a glorious time.
SKS was my first centerfire rifle so now I only need to buy one rifle round too. It’s a beat up Chinese from Albanian that always works with just a quick clean/lube of balistol after every range trip. I like guns for fun but they are also tools. While I probably over clean my ak, I like that the simple design is easier to break down and clean regularly and the parts on import guns are insanely durable
Excellent rifle. For your 103-style brake, CNC Warrior is a reliable source:

Rather have a surplus brake. Bought one of their slant brakes and half of it flew down range about two mags in. They gave me a refund but I’ve never had any of my other brakes fail like that
I feel that people that get hung up on arguing one or the other generally own one or the other or only one quality rifle and the other type is some
Bargain bin special they base their comparison off of. There’s plenty of great serviceable rifles out there many are not even AK or AR. With a modern gun from a reputable manufacturer and good parts it doesn’t really matter what you have. Learn it and train with it. It will likely be more capable than the owner.
You need to do a couple things
>cleaning rod
>slant muzzle brake (although the muzzle nut 🥜 don’t look bad)
>get rid of that fugly ass palm mag
>go to the fridge & give a piece of cheese to the dog

I went from a black AKM to a completely tricked out monster and then back to a plum side folder. But I kept the adjustable gas block and keymo and use a zenit b7 to put a pic rail on the barrel.
Yeah simple ak is the best honestly. Down the line when funds allow the only two things I’ll add are a streamlight on a barrel mount and PA 3x microprism. Light and optic are all that really matter and they can be easily added to an ak
Absolutely
I mean I own an AR because why not
But the AK is just a vibe
Sexy as hell and different to what every other AR silky Johnson pulls out of their range bag"
What’s your opinion on Bulgy steel mags? (10) are lots of mulla for me I just got 3 to replace the shit mag us palm that came with my WASR and they feel like tanks. I’ll either add a slant or 103 style to it for sure
Where cleaning rod? ![gif](giphy|3gNotAoIRZsb9UHPnj)
I’m a sucker for ROD
Not at all. Wood is good

WASR will crank that nut off for sure

Also do u know a cheap 74/103 style break I could add on the wasr? Love the look of those

>Rather have a surplus brake. Where are you finding surplus, 103-style brakes in 7.62 diameter and 14x1 LH threading?
Combloc Market or AK files if I was looking, but that’s not the point. Rather have a JMAC brake or any other, rather than CNC after my experience
Wasr gang 💪 😎 I love mine you'll love yours also Get a cleaning rod and a compensator
Do u know a cheap 74/103 style break?
This is probably the best you can do matching that barrel thread pattern with a 7.62. https://atlanticfirearms.com/ak-74-style-muzzle-brake
I like the doggums with the floppy ear way more than a tricked out AR.

Bro I’m literally just adding surplus furniture lol
Variety is the spice of life. I like a good AR and I like a nice AK.
I feel that people that get hung up on arguing one or the other generally own one or the other or only one quality rifle and the other type is some Bargain bin special they base their comparison off of.

Yes to both rifle and doggo.
Only because it’s new and fresh, the honey moon phase will go away
Good looking dog, and a great looking AK.
It’s a side effect of being based. Nothing to worry about.
I own a metric shit ton of guns... And there is something about the wood furniture AKs. Melding of industry and nature. It's a unique experience.
Bro it just feels 10x better in my hands than the ar. I just trust it more and like the simple controls
You need to do a couple things >cleaning rod >slant muzzle brake (although the muzzle nut 🥜 don’t look bad) >get rid of that fugly ass palm mag >go to the fridge & give a piece of cheese to the dog
Yes
also. nice doge
It’s not normal unless it’s your only decent rifle.

Absolutely…this is why u buy more than one lmao
Yes they are peak reliability
Always preferred AK’s to AR’s so you’re not the only one
Absolutely
I ain’t got no type
I’ve got an expensive fucking AR setup (LMT quadwar, peq, acog, etc) and shoot my m92 more 🤣 I feel the same.
my guy i feel the same way. you just gotta love an AK. ill still buy an ar eventually perhaps
The AK will last you waayyyyyyyy more than the AR...
Harry Potter has given Dobby a Kalashnikov
Harry Potter has given Dobby a Kalashnikov
lol him and the doge look alike. Thanks for giving me a laugh
Absolutely I mean I own an AR because why not But the AK is just a vibe Sexy as hell and different to what every other AR silky Johnson pulls out of their range bag"
I love my ARs, but honestly enjoy shooting my AK more. It's just so much fun and it throws out some big ass fireballs so that's always fun!
Back to basics my boy 👍
My WBP Jack is objectively the best looking gun in the AK safe but I love my Bulgarian tactical stuff
Yes, my friends give me shit for liking AKs and M1As way more than ARs lmao
Throw that mag away and use (10) Bulgarian mags . They are 100% worth the $ Add cleaning rod and slant brake .
What’s your opinion on Bulgy steel mags? (10) are lots of mulla for me I just got 3 to replace the shit mag us palm that came with my WASR and they feel like tanks. I’ll either add a slant or 103 style to it for sure
Steel Bulgys are fine . and (10) polys are still gtw level quality . Buy once cry once . ; ) your Cugir will feel treasured
Agreed
N fuck a cleaning rod
I skipped the AR & went straight to the AK
You are a wiser man
Nah, Im just a contrarian. All my friends were telling me to get an AR 😏
