  1. Decided to take a few, well, lets just say not prepared photos of my three kalashes.

     

    Dboys AKS-74, awaiting a repaint replacement reciever (stock's sling loop is broken)

    Dboys AK-74mn, mag still has some tape residue from previous owner.

    Dboys AKMS full steel. It's a bit of an odd gun currently, with East German Bakelite front handguards and a yugo slant brake on it (didn't have a metal original when I got it). The cleaning rod is not fitting at this time, and the sling is just the one from the box. I got a real one on the way at some point.

  2. Bit of an odd question.

     

    I've come into possession of a yugo slant akm muzzle brake. I have a dboys akms that has no brake for it.

     

    I assume I can bring the two together?

     

     

    EDIT: Got it on (I think) with the aid of a vice.

  3. I knew it!

     

    Now I am going to be envious when I see these on the field more now. Usually an svd is so rare here that seeing one brightens any game. Now I'll be like "Why don't I have one!"

  4. Yes, please do.

     

    Otherwise, I like the way it's photographed. It's got a gleam from the light that says "I'm in need of dirt or the blood of my enemies" to the receiver.

     

    It kinda reminds me of the one ak my father ever took interest in at an expo, because it had that kind of sight on it.

  5. Was just firing mine today for some fun, and I noticed some problems that I've noticed.

     

    1. For some reason, my mags seem to have an issue with holding rounds. Sometimes it's the bb's getting stuck in the chamber, mostly it's two or more bb's getting stuck side by side at various in the mag. I figure it's usually a result of loading mishaps, or that it's the brand of bb's. I use KSC and AE brands in various weights.

     

    2.For some reason, it was firing way to the left today. I've never messed with the hop-up, but I figure that may be a cause, along with the loading issues and perhaps the barrel.

     

    3.My recoil spring seems to bend slightly when in regular position. It seems a bit too long, but the gun fires alright.

     

    I keep the gun maintained as best as I can, but I feel I am doing something wrong. Could someone chime in on the specific spots on the slide and other parts to keep lubed up? I usually pay attention to the areas with wear and overall, but I keep dreading my actions.
