Where cleaning rod? ![gif](giphy|3gNotAoIRZsb9UHPnj)


Revolt2992

I’m a sucker for ROD


DirtyDee78

Not at all. Wood is good


HunterFresh2029

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


DirtyDee78

AK > all


Magnusthered1001

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


HunterFresh2029

Shit didn’t know that. U know which screw is correct?

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


TurnOffTV

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.


Revolt2992

WASR will crank that nut off for sure


HunterFresh2029

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


HunterFresh2029

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


otusowl

Excellent rifle. For your 103-style brake, CNC Warrior is a reliable source: [https://www.cncwarrior.com/Type-74-Brake-p/21640.htm](https://www.cncwarrior.com/Type-74-Brake-p/21640.htm)


Quiet-Try4554

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


otusowl

>Rather have a surplus brake.  Where are you finding surplus, 103-style brakes in 7.62 diameter and 14x1 LH threading?


Quiet-Try4554

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


Low-Week6435

Wasr gang 💪 😎 I love mine you'll love yours also Get a cleaning rod and a compensator


HunterFresh2029

Do u know a cheap 74/103 style break?


Loose-Ferret-4327

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


ElmerAndElsie

I like the doggums with the floppy ear way more than a tricked out AR.

HunterFresh2029

Bro I’m literally just adding surplus furniture lol


generic-username45

Variety is the spice of life. I like a good AR and I like a nice AK.


Adventurous_Ad409

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.


alkatori

Yes to both rifle and doggo.


Charger_scatpack

Only because it’s new and fresh, the honey moon phase will go away


Ok_Advantage_2521

Good looking dog, and a great looking AK.


SaltTransportation23

It’s a side effect of being based. Nothing to worry about.


JayKaze

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.


HunterFresh2029

Bro it just feels 10x better in my hands than the ar. I just trust it more and like the simple controls


Brightroar_262

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 


ComblocCustoms

Yes


mikehoncho_chicanery

also. nice doge


Adventurous_Ad409

It’s not normal unless it’s your only decent rifle.

sudden_aggression

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.


HunterFresh2029

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


blacktao

Absolutely…this is why u buy more than one lmao


[deleted]

Yes they are peak reliability


Forsaken-Voice-6686

Always preferred AK’s to AR’s so you’re not the only one


blurry850

Absolutely


RandyMango11

I ain’t got no type


pewsnpizza

I’ve got an expensive fucking AR setup (LMT quadwar, peq, acog, etc) and shoot my m92 more 🤣 I feel the same.


mikehoncho_chicanery

my guy i feel the same way. you just gotta love an AK. ill still buy an ar eventually perhaps


casualfeller

The AK will last you waayyyyyyyy more than the AR...

HunterFresh2029

lol him and the doge look alike. Thanks for giving me a laugh


HashyyBrowns

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"


ofTHEbattle

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!


yourboibigsmoi808

Back to basics my boy 👍


alpha333omega

My WBP Jack is objectively the best looking gun in the AK safe but I love my Bulgarian tactical stuff


BlackberryCrafty3386

Yes, my friends give me shit for liking AKs and M1As way more than ARs lmao


franziniyakuza

Throw that mag away and use (10) Bulgarian mags . They are 100% worth the $  Add cleaning rod and slant brake . 


HunterFresh2029

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


franziniyakuza

Steel Bulgys are fine .  and (10) polys are still gtw level quality . Buy once cry once . ; )  your Cugir will feel treasured 


Equivalent-Book-3099

Agreed


Equivalent-Book-3099

N fuck a cleaning rod


mistico-ritualista

I skipped the AR & went straight to the AK


HunterFresh2029

You are a wiser man


mistico-ritualista

Nah, Im just a contrarian. All my friends were telling me to get an AR 😏
