I have to admit, if I was to depart from my Russian replica focus, I would more than likely shoot for either one of these or the Scar H.
-
LCT RPK. Still needs a proper rpk rear sight and a sling fitted, along with other things. Magazine is a Cyma/acm midcap that surprisingly fits well.

I assume he means out the front of the canister around the port where it plugs in (assuming he is hearing it or some other indicator).

^ For when you have to be really sneaky with your Cheeky Breeki.
I assume you made it yourself?

Just had this arrive in the mail from another small shop. A few folks might recognize it.
-
I thought it was a given that those stocks were made out of pixie dust and unicorn horns.

That almost looks like a standard loadout for FireKnife on skirmish day.
-
This just arrived from Unlimited Patch Works. They have a Lagoon Company patch as well and soon a Revy Two Hands patch.
-
On the Bizon it goes front magazine lugs first and then push up till the feed lips lock into place. I would hazard a guess that this "magazine" fits differently though.
I assume it has a sort of adapter piece that fits the usual catch in the receiver, and possibly some sort of retainer for the rest of it. so you would bring the "magazine" up to the receiver, fit the piece into the catch, and then tap it firmly to lock it in. Whatever retainer it has is not visible, but it doesn't appear to have the lugs like on the Bizon magazines.
-
Ah yes, that particular image. What makes it differ from what I envision is that with the Bizon, there is no lower handguard at all and the underside is altered for the magazine to fit smoothly, whilst that image shows (at least within the blurriness) a standalone magazine, if that is what it is.
-
One could say Bizon-2 model, though being airsoft certain stuff is always off (no front sling hook). The stock catch is also a bit wonky, but at least I can maneuver the stock on and off it unlike the early runs that seemed to require superman to do so.
Earlier I held the magazine up against one of my 74 models, and I had thoughts about how a full length rifle version would look like.
-
One of the few times a box arrived for me. Cyma/S&T Bizon. Already went to work on removing the sticker residue afterwards. Been wanting one of these since the BF2/Ghost Recon days.

Yes, hicaps and midcaps if you can find them. As some folks have said though, they are horrible at retaining bb's outside of the weapon initially without modification,
-
There is a scope attachment rail available, so I assume it does so for that.
-
Yeah, it is a shame how cheap it was made for such an interesting piece and then see how it is being sold. It is supposed to have a "quick" spring change bit but that involves removing the stock...
The selector is off from the real one which has to be pulled out slightly when used, but that was probably a thing that S&T wouldn't know how to do without handling a real one (which is the impression the build quality of the whole replica gives off).
Remember to tape it up like all the training images show
That all said, I still wouldn't mind one on the wall.
-
It's a regutted acm/Black Viper ak12.
But darn it DarkLite, you are making me want that pattern again. I just want a closet full of gorkas in every pattern under the sun.

Early on in this "heated" topic there someone examined one of their replicas and the rear sight block being essentially from a type 56.

Sure, you could try to put on a real sight block as a replacement, but have fun trying to. There are some stories later on in that thread about people trying to take them down with bad results, and other stories about the horrible finishes. Of course, there are others who quickly say "best replica ever!" in a sense.
Honestly I wouldn't be bothered to get one, but then again, I am fine with what I have already and know the limits of what I have, unlike E&L that still after all this time has no solid base in the minds of the majority. Quite a few folks seem to love them though.
-
Kazakhstan magic it is.
Russian forces themselves have enough as it is in terms of (in various mindsets) unorthodox weapons to be used in place of a masterkey.
Of course, the real answer is they just punch out door locks and everything within their range, or use a shovel.

I still regret trading mine away.
I await seeing one of those type 64. Bulky 7.62x51 magazine of awesomeness.

They are supposed to be with the newer models for cyma, but it is still hit or miss I feel.
I have an "10 feet away" East German knockup that is made from trying to mash dboys/cyma/etc parts together. It is quite unnatural, but it fitted together after removing a few bits and bobs.
-
Was wondering when you would post a pic of it. Lovely. Looks like you got some of those longer magazines as well.
-
Indeed, it is just one of those support weapons that needs more love. Your RPD is undoubtedly more sturdy than any of the RPKs out there on the market, and I would love to see the reaction of folks to it here locally.

Now you just need Gurlukovich kit for maximum trolling.
TBH, I always kinda liked the short mags sold with those models. Always thought about picking some up.
