New Project · 4:25pm Nov 27th, 2020
Wassup everyone?
So lately I've gotten my mitts on a new project, And I genuinely am excited to see it to fruition. I've always been a gun dude, So lately I've gotten me hands on a new AK kit! Sure I already own a Kalash, but I wanted to make another for the longest time. Sure, making ARs is fun, but there's no challenge. Mill out slot A, Insert parts B - E, blah, blah, blah. It's a bloody lego set. Whoop-di-fuckin-doo. I can do that crap in my sleep.
This time I may have gotten a bit too ambitious. I'm building by own copy of the AK-103;
and either some parts MAY be incompatible, or the companies I bought said parts from sent me the wrong damned thing. I have voiced my annoyance to said companies, but 'All sales are final" yadda yadda." Just means I wont buy from them again, and I'll advise anyone against it too. Now where the parts MAY be incompatible is the gas block. The barrel I purchased does have its gas port pre drilled, but it seems to be too far forward to work with the newer 90 degree style gas block... It may be me being paranoid, it may be a non-issue. I won't know until I start assembling it.
Now getting the rear trunion for the folding stock mechanism was just as much of a headache as getting a barrel these days. Sadly I can only afford the Bulgarian 4.5mm model, rather than the standard 5.5, but C'est la Vie. I plan on making a video of the whole thing so if you guys are patient, and want to see, I'll post links to my Youtube/Rumble/Full30 accounts. I know Youtube is full blown Soviet Communist(
), not unlike alot of people here, and will likely delete my account for posting such a video, but I don't give a fuck.
Anyway, Yeah. Building a new Kalash! This is gonna be fun, problems be damned!
