**WASR 22/AKT 98 Pic Thread***

Wes, you probably wont find one brand new in California anymore and maybe any state for that matter. They arent being imported for the time being. If you find a used one be prepared to spend between 400-500 and that is if I dont buy it first. : )

Bump for props to Offroad , his Rifle is A REAL masterpiece !

You havent seen the new acquisition yet. A WASR 22 RPK. Less than 500 were ever imported. Already have the bipod and cleaning rod ring on order to make it look like a more authentic RPK.



And here are some updated pics of the PSL Paratrooper/WASR 22

WAR 22/Bulgy 74

I grabbed my WASR .22 out of ten day jail today. The wife and kids were gone, so I had some free time in the shop. I was going for a Bulgy 74 clone......but, in .22. I still have to mod the 74 rebuild kit to accept the .22 insert. What do you guys think?

Very nice. Did you do the magazine modification yourself?

[DWarner]

Thanks for posting those up! Yes, I did the mag mod myself, well, me and my Porter Cable belt sander! I have the .22 insert in, I just need to function test it and see if it works.

That's great. I'm trying to do the same thing, but it's been hell trying to find an OD grean AK74 magazine to do the modification on to match my stock set.

It might be easier to swap the furniture to plum or black....than tracking down an OD green mag. I'll let you know if I ever see one.

I've got way too many black AK's.

I do have a set of plum furniture on the way, but it's destined for my AK 105 clone.

Not my rifle.

The sad part is I just got a plum AK 74 magazine rebuild kit too, and I will have to hack it up to make an F'in 10 rounder. Gorgeous Russian mag too.

I just finished a mag modification for my PSL 22 as well. They work great! The pictures show before and after.

Below is my next project. I just picked up an AKT-98 RPK Long barreled (KK-95) for a really good price and have already picked up an RPK bipod and front sight to install. I am currently on the lookout for a 40 round mag for authenticity. (Bipod is just mocked up in the pic and hasnt been installed yet)

awesome toys, everyone! how do i get started?

[offrdmania]

They are scarce aatruong, you just have to be on the lookout. They are no longer being imported into the country so the price on them has been going up like crazy lately. If you find one under $400 then you are getting a great deal right now.

I know this is an old thread...I just got 2 from Century, "fix em" specials for $99 each. Both have nothing wrong, except they are both missing the pistol grip, grip nut and grip bolt. They were advertsied as "possibly missing bolt, bolt carrier, firing pin or other small parts.". I gambled and scored. Now, who can direct me on this "magazine conversion" I keep seeing???

Thanks

Looks like a Squires Bingham or Armscor .22 magazine they've somehow secured in a full size AK magazine body...makes my Armscor AK .22 Look cheap.nice work guys!
