Should I buy Telaammo or M67?

>>64029666
Tela, leave the M67 to me.

>>64029732
M67 it is. Big order today. Thanks!

>>64029392
If Yugoslavia never broke apart then the M90 was intended to replace the M70 in service. Instead Serbia standardized on the M21 in 2004, but now it looks like they're in the process of transitioning to the M19 in 6.5 Grendel that can also convert to 7.62x39 with a magazine and barrel swap.
>>64029666
I wouldn't even bother with Telaammo since it's pretty much the same price as brass at this point.

Scuffing up a US made receiver is far preferable to media blasting and refinishing the kit. I like to keep original finishes original.

>>64030216
You know what else can produce a worn-in finish?

Suffer.

Damn, weren't those kits in terrible condition and like $8-900 when they first came in a couple years ago? I hate how kikes and boomers treat guns like the fucking stock market.

>>64030396
$25k for a gun that has been chopped in half lol. Spelling errors in the first sentence of the description

Should I do it bros

>>64030216
Use your gun and the finish will wear naturally.

>>64031811
I'll use your mother and wear her in naturally

>>64030904
Correct. It's still legally a transferable MG as-is because the receiver is not demilled to the extent that the ATF requires for a gun to be "destroyed."
Hypothetically you could hire a gunsmith (or do it yourself) to re-weld the receiver and rebuild the rifle. It'd be a legal MG and worth $40k++

>>64031811
But seriously, I don't understand the conniption fits. The kit was in that condition already, I didn't wear any of the parts besides the receiver. My options were:
>media blast the entire kit and refinish it, destroying the original finish
or
>have a two tone rifle and the part finish wears long before the receiver does
I enjoy my rifle as is. Shoot your own goddamn gun you fucking nasally ass whining nigger faggots

I should offer him a trade. This book and some slightly used scuba equipment.

Do they accept returns? Buy it, scan it, upload it and return it.

My two (11)s. 1969 and 1994. I fucking love them to death.

heh

>>64033547
very nice

I got a Yugo parts kit for relatively cheap, but the front trunnion is absolutely destroyed. Can you swap out the front trunnion without worrying about head spacing? It came with the original barrel already drilled for the barrel pin.
Maybe I could build material back up where the front of the mag locks in, but would the heat mess with the strength of the trunnion or anything like that?

>>64034431
Wait.. does the front of the mag lock into the receiver or the trunnion?

thoughts on a good 556 AK? I am thinking M85 since I already have a wbp jack in 762

I enjoy AKs

>>64034431
>Can you swap out the front trunnion without worrying about head spacing?
You'd need to set headspace anyway during your build regardless of which front trunnion you use. The original is preferable but not required.
>It came with the original barrel already drilled for the barrel pin.
It's gonna need to have to be drilled again when you set headspace. Use an oversized barrel pin (AK Builder has them). This isn't a suggestion, you have to do it this way.
>Maybe I could build material back up where the front of the mag locks in, but would the heat mess with the strength of the trunnion or anything like that?
Don't bother with that, you're right it would mess with the heat treatment of the trunnion.

Are you going to build it yourself or send it out?

>>64034796

>>64034841
I'm going to build it myself.
So, If I ordered the oversized barrel pin, the changes in headspacing, even with a different trunnion, are minute enough that I don't have to worry about the barrel walking forward or back? I don't know if I'm wording this correctly. I can still use the original barrel (already drilled) with a different trunnion as long as I use an oversized pin.

>>64034796
Me too :)

>>64033547
Nice reddit fin

>>64034796
WBP and PSA, the ultimate pleb combo

>>64035106
PSAs dont have rear trunnions like that anon. I dont know what is worse. Cofusing 104FR with PSA or hating on the highest quality AKM-pattern rifle ever imported??

>>64035106
Post your AK faggot

>>64035117
Because I try to educate, here is the rationale. 104FR rifles were only imported for 2 years. From what I have seen, only the earliest examples have a rear trunnion stock release latch that looks like the left. Examples after serial number 1000 or so tend to look like the more common example on the right, the one that PSA and many others copied. There are are few others reasons that the rilfle was clearly not a PSA but that is the main one my eye goes to first. Most anons here know those autistic differences between rifles here. Learn them before you make a post like that again.

I enjoy AKs.

>>64034883
The barrel won't move once it's been pinned in place. Since you'll be re-headspacing the barrel to the trunnion, you'll be re-drilling the barrel pin channel. In this case you'll step up a size of pin and make the original channel larger. Hope that helps.

>>64034596
M85 is probably the best off the shelf option for a 5.56 AK pistol at the moment. Serbia halted weapons exports for the time being, so you should probably go ahead and snag one if you’re on the fence about it.

>>64035117
>>64035247
Thats clearly a GF5. You don’t know shit kid

>>64035269
Okay, cool. I think I understand. Thanks, anon.
