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

[EBR Works]

Just picked mine up today. Lancaster on a NDS-3 receiver, JP lock, 10/40 mag, and bungie sling.

Beautiful!

Great idea. Is the rear trunion hardened?

Factory trunnions are, after market pistol trunnions probably aren't. I used a factory trunnion, cut off the tang, and put a single 1/4" rivet through the remaining buttstock screw hole to attach a steel block, which was drilled and tapped. A steel plate is sandwiched between the sling loop and the trunnion to cover the rear of the gun.

I want to buy one straight up! Send it to Freakshow for a single shot conversion then here to Cali! Where can I find one?

Mine has a factory trunion so drilling it will be tough I guess.

Do you think the prices on these will drop when the panic buying is over?

California and Federally compliant AOW.

I had my C&R ATF inspection after I tried to volreg this gun, and CADOJ had tipped ATF that I was <gasp>building guns</gasp>. Thank goodness for interagency cooperation keeping us all safe. Inspection went fine, no problem from ATF on building this, much to the frustration of CADOJ I'm sure.

Yugo M92 kit built up from a flat as a single-shot, converted to semi, and AOW'ed.

If you thought the TangoDown VFG was already expensive, try adding $200 to the price tag.

Nice! Maybe this year I'll go the NFA trust route and AOW mine as well. What optic is on the weapon in Pic #2?

so, i'm looking to get an ak pistol.

1) can someone give me a quick run through on what the difference between a krinkov, draco, and other ak pistols are?
2) is installing a rear sling swivel as easy as drill and tapping or is there a whole other piece that needs to be installed?
3) i read you guys talking about a trinnion... what is that?

thanks for any info you can provide!

1) Krinkovs are Russian. Dracos are Romanian.

2) I believe the rear sling swivel is already mounted on AK pistol trunnions.

3) A trunnion is a metal block riveted inside the receiver in order to mount a buttstock in the rear and the barrel in the front.

sweet, thanks for the info!

The Draco does not have a sling swivel on the rear trunion since this is a factory made pistol with it's original Romanian receiver and trunions. Per JumboPanda, the factory rear trunion is hardened, so drilling it might be a challenge. Aftermarket rear pistol trunions for custom builds may have sling swivel opening already.

[pacrimguru]

can i simply swap out rear trunions or is there some crazy modification involved?

You have to remove and replace rivets.
