denims are always lovely

verry nice indeed! so sweet and simple

hop up rubbers tend to be finicky about lube, in my experience. they want just the right amount to do well. would assume that in tropical and humid environments like that in the philippines, the lube tends to dry up faster and collect dust as well. wouldn't know about colder climes but i imagine they wouldn't dry up but would congeal instead -- meaning the lube would be in small clots and not spread out through the rubber. spraying a bit into the magazine each time i load it with gas works well with my GBBs. i hardly ever lube the hop, except when i do a maintenance cleanup of the gu

hmmm . . . . don't lose hope, may get my 7 early next year and take it to EDGI for some custom work. but then, PDIs may by then be available, eh

yummy!!! no project thread for those mods? cheers, zT

me too !

totally yummy, komrad alakdan

nahh . . . was jiving about the very roundabout way to get pics up makes me that much more eager to see the pics

wheww. worked up a sweat reading that, pforcerecon.

have read of some using a torch on metal parts. your lighter on ABS is the first i've heard of any such thing. pics would really be nice.

roger that, elchinator. verry nice, mikoyan. would love to see that finished.

but this will die soon if you limit it only to those not in other pic threads.

don't have those specific pics, shroom, but there are some pics here that might help.

here's one way of doing it, carter. liking that, fin

Kalash RK series receivers are stamped metal. some have zinc alloy trunnions, outer barrels, and sight blocks. the newer versions, peeps say, are all steel but i cannot personally attest to that.

immediately preceding post, too

nahhh . , , , , you've just been struck by AKnitis -- the longest lasting pandemic that's long being kept from public eyes LOLZ

thanks from me too -- have the folder on my projects list

thanks, PM. good job on another realistic touch to our AKs.
