Oops, one Yugo

WBP uses cast bolts and billet trunnions

WBP doesn't use cast bolts and billet trunnions

>>64176994
WBP = Will Break Prematurely

>>64177087
WBP = Won't Be Poop

>>64177184
WBP = With Broken Parts

>>64177275
WBP = Will Be Perfect

>>64177411
wbp = will be polish

>>64177411
WBP = We Bought Potmetal

Is it a gaggle of Yugos? A tribe?

>>64177699
The new underfolders are nice but man that fake battle worn furniture looks gay

>>64177708
They're surplus handguards.

>>64177790
No they’re not. Those are the “battleworn” handguards sold by Zastava USA.

>>64177548
WBP = Warranty Backlog Pending

WBP = Wiggers Buying Polshit

>>64177886
The first batch that came in had surplus handguards before they ran out.

What it will take for the AK platform to look less like a liability to own in the US? Price gouged AKs, scarcity of ammo, and the same copy and paste Zentico inspired furniture that cost more the gun itself. When is the reformation going to come?

>>64177976
Never it’s a dead rifle. The only thing keeping them alive in the world is the turd world and russian pride

>>64177986
This. The world has moved on to goyslop polymer sig tier bull shit. Thankfully, AKs last forever

>>64177976
Either 7.62x39 needs to become cheap again through whatever means(lol) or companies that make AK's for the western market need to start going all in on producing more 5.56 AK's.
Right now a 5.56 M70 is one of the better rifles you could own.

>>64178247
>This $0.43 CPR 7.62 is too expensive…
>I’m going to shoot $0.41 CPR 5.56 instead!
Just shoot an AR

This is a fren zone, WBP/WASR/Zastava bros will not bully eachother, prebans will not bully the copers. Thanks.

>>64178365
If you are paying more than $0.30 CPR for 5.56 you are getting fleeced and are a retard

>>64178399
$0.37 CPR is the cheapest I see for new production brass cased .223 on AmmoSeek for 6+ stars on shipping
You need to factor in shipping costs to the CPR

>>6417836
The main problem of 762×39 is that it lacks availability, you can go to any LGS small or big or any site, and you will know that you can still feed your gun for the foreseeable future, in contrast if you are looking for 762 is either going to be shitty corrosive over priced ammo or non at all.

>>64178376
Civilian polish garbage, and wannabe combloc member trash.

>>64178399
Cheapest M193 is like 39 cpr

>>64178376
WBP = Wannabe Beryl (Pathetic)

>>64178376
Ye

Anyone else waiting on their AOA KBK build? I even paid $250 for full blueing, can't wait to get this thing.

Not an AK but is is yugo related, how much should I be paying for a yugo SKS? I know I'm probably not going to be able to get one for like $400 or something like that but what would be a good price for one these days?

>>64178843
The lowest I've seen a non-bubba'ed one is 550 so I'd expect within ~75 of that

>>64178843
Center systems had them for around $700-900, depending on how many of the parts are numbers matching.

>>64177699
A murder of yugos

>>64178857
My buddy has a Russian one that someone before him bubba'd into a tapco stock. It's upsetting.

>>64177965
well those ones in >>64177699 are not.

>>64178972
>>64178974
>>64178983
>>64178984
Nice. Don't run it on a Vepr 12.

>>64178996
Ouch, noted.

Replaced a trigger for the first time. Never again, annoying as hell

>>64179103
Meh, I'd rather work on AK FCGs than HK SEF/Ambi trigger packs. Once you tie the hammer spring legs up the rest is super easy.

>>64179103
did you use a strong rubber band to hold the spring to hammer? Or a pair of forceps or tweezers?

>>64179103
It's not the clearest picture but there's a trick I use that's like this.
Take an empty 12ga shell and slide it over the hammer when the two springs are pulled up and under a lot of tension. If you've done it right then the springs won't give you snake bites when they snap your hand because they can't move.

>>64179140
Yes
>>64179136
>>64179147
Hammer was annoying but getting the trigger and disconnector lined up was worse

>>64179152
Yeah true, you just get better with it over time.
I put a punch through the holes to line them up, then use the fcg pin with another punch and tap it in. Doesn't always work the first time but if you've changed triggers on an AR it'll be second nature

>>64179103
It's not hard, some people get hung up in the selector being blocked but all you have to do is rotate it backwards. I had never installed a FCG on an AK before but when I got my Romanian barreled action from AoA I had to watch a jewtube video easy as fuck you retard.

>>64179152
>the trigger and disconnector lined up was worse
Do you have a 5 piece cleaning kit? There's a slave pin to help with that.

not enough AK's in the AK chat niggers

I have a VSKA and I dont care what anyone has to say about it. It works just fine, gonna take it out to shoot again this weekend.

>>64178984
Aren't the airsoft clone of these do a better job of not being a piece of garbage to use. Cool for collectors not cool for practical use.

>>64179163
>slave pin
So that's what it's called, thanks I felt pretty retarded not knowing the correct term for it.
>>64179167
U rite
>>64179172
You know what, fuck it. Enjoy your VSKA. Record your range day though. I want to see if it's a YouTube video or a LiveLeak one.

>>64179172
“How do you know someone is vegan? They'll tell you.” Replace vegan with retard and you now have a vska owner.

>>64178247
>5.56 M70

Kinda like an M90?

>>64179186
Same goes for welders, they love bragging about how they do the job of robots though somehow more lazily and shittily

>>64179223
Many such cases!

>>64179192
That's what I meant. Minor spelling mistake, I will go kill myself post haste.

>>64179167
How hard was swapping the trigger out?

>>64178998
Do you have the insta page for the guy you got it from in japan?

>>64179739
I didn't swap it out, this is the one it came with from Jewlantic

I love my WBP Fox

>>64178972
>>64178974
That looks fragile as hell. I got the same woodland bag with my pk01, slavs love that shit

>>64181216
Oh they must swap the OG trigger back in then. I got mine from AoA and it has an ALG trigger in it and the OG trigger parts came in a little baggie along with the bracket needed for the square stock to fit.

Found some locally sourced 7.62x39 ammo for 38 cents per round. Good shit too. Time to open the cans

>>64176476
I can never tell if the Romanian AK’s with wood handguard look really nice or goofy. They’re genuinely extremely comfortable though.

>>64183005
Not bad. I have a few of those Monarch cans I got at Academy for 36.5cpr during the 2021 shortage insanity. Decent range ammo. Right after that Academy raised the price and they just sat on shelf because people were in denial. I'm sure they sold later on.

>>64183116
My local Academy doesn't carry anything for 7.62x39 or even AKs in general anymore. It's ogre.
