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

Then you could have one in the chamber, insert your mag w/ 1 loaded round, and the gun would be 2-shot, not single shot.

Darn you are right, I did'nt think about loaded chamber before inserting the mag. Oh well, back in the garage and re-do the mag sled

Retro Romy Draco and first shoot target

Before and after photos

Romy wood, slant brake and grip. Romy grip is a bit fatter and more comfy than the grip that comes on the gun.

Just need to work out a rear mounting point for the web sling.

Got the Draco out to the range last Thursday. Here is the first 25 yard target. Took a while to figure out a good grip and a sling will definitely help. Hogue grips are on the way....
Front sight needs to be drifted a bit to the right, but the hole in my SKS sight tool was a little too small for the Draco sight pin. I guess I will be drilling out the hole in the sight tool.



Here is the "covert" UTG case:

Nice Tim, we need to do a Draco Pistol Day at Chabot. I have a few friends that have them now, it would be so cool to see like 6 people all lined up with Draco's

Would be fun, but I don't get down there very often. I'm further north and usually shoot at Circle S.

Finally got the V1 sling plate made up. came out great, I think I might need it closer to the body.





what do you guys think? closer or leave it that way?
Put the Hogue on, what a difference. I don't know how i shot without it.
another idea is to make a shim to take some of the angle out of the pistol grip, I can almost hold it out with one hand easily.

I'd say leave it that way. Planning on making any more? That looks a lot cleaner than drilling into the rear trunnion.

thanks for the feed back, I just could get myself to drill into the reciever.

I will be doing a few (20-30) of these, I know a few of my AK friends are interested. The more I do the cheaper they will be. I will figure a price as soon as I get the CNC time and what type of blackening to go with, Duracoat or chemical.
Give me a couple days.
I will keep you in mind.

Do you need a special tool to attach a muzzle break or will a crescent wrench work?

From the factory they come with a muzzle nut tack-welded to FSB. You will need a Dremel and a grinding/cutting bit and about two minutes OR you will need some kind of triangle file and a LOT of elbow grease to saw through that weld. Once you break the weld, you just need to depress the little detent pin and spin the nut off in a CLOCKWISE (opposite of our threads) direction. Then you can just thread on just about any AK-47 style muzzle device - you shouldn't even need a wrench of any kind, because the detent pin holds the muzzle device in place.

Got it, thanks.
