Where are the AK pistols?........

[Gio]

Yep. My Girlfriend had an "intervention" when I brought this home. Didn't have the heart to tell her about my Romanian non-g side folder I have on dros. I guess that's what the ten day wait is for?

Nice, I wish I could say I can't wait to see her face when that one comes home as well

Here is my Draco after a few modifications.

Removed Tapco G2 Trigger and Hammer Set, removed tack weld and barrel nut.

Added Romy AKM Trigger and Hammer Set, AKM Slant Brake, Nylon loop plus Magpul MS2 as well

I have not fired it yet, might go to Chabot for a little session today. If not I will be shooting it and my other toys tomorrow at the Zombie Shoot








(Mag is blocked to 10/30 and is sealed with epoxy as well.)

Finally, some pics and info to add to this thread!

Just got this one home last night and went to town on it. I don't have the means to drill out the rear trunnion for a sling attachment, so I made mine up with some black webbing I had laying around. It will work for now.

Draco AK pistol
Hogue FDE AK grip
Midwest Industries FDE handguard
Troy single-point sling on my own, made-up, nylon webbing sling mount
Tapco slotted muzzle brake

Enjoy!

I like this muzzle brake

Anybody know where I can find a wood hanguard set for this AK? Will the Krink handguard fit?

Well here is a before and after staining. For some reason my bottom piece came really light, will add some more stain to it tomorrow I guess. But here it is for now,

No Stain


2 Coats on Top 4 Coats on Bottom


All I want now is a Romanian PG to better match my setup

Gio,

Check your PM.

The pistol looks amazing! I was wondering what stain color is that?
And how does the 4 piece flash hider work for you?
TIA.

Thanks, I updated my original post with a little more info.
The orange set is the original Bulgarian stain. There are no replacements for these so that's another reason why I put the black set on. I also like the flash light lower and there's no replacement for that one either.. I didn't notice any flash even at night. Very effective FH, probably the best there is for this design.
