Grey_Fox Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I think that the price of the real SVD is too high for an airsoft project. Even a deactivated SVD should be pricey. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 (edited) Do you guys think it would be possible to buy a real SVD and somehow fit it with a M14 gearbox? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, so long as you bend the motor cage to look like a V3 gearbox or have an SVD with a standard military style grip/stock, which wouldn't be an SVD at all but a Tiger instead. You will also need an incredibly looong air nozzle. You might get problems geting your hands on a deactivated SVD though, not to mention deactivated guns are required to have their barrels cut in half. So it would be easier buying a King Arms/Atoz SVD. Edited November 8, 2006 by renegadecow Link to post Share on other sites

FW200 Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 An RPK 74, sweet! Beats any old RPK any day, well except for the one with the gigantic NV stuck on it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's not an RPK-74 Â Besides.. only differences between RPK and RPK-74 except for magazines (obviously), is that the RPK-74 has a flashhider..

Tommygunn Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 The difference between the RPK and RPK-74 is that the RPK is based on the AK47 or AKM, depending on age, and the RPK-74 is based on the AK74. Different eras, different ammunition. They're different! Link to post Share on other sites

I suggest looking closely at the receiver. Its a stamped type, akin to the 74 as opposed to the machined 47 type. And yes, the 74 (5.45x39) does sport different chambering from a 47 (7.62x39).

spb Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 Nice  Really now? I suggest looking closely at the receiver. Its a stamped type, akin to the 74 as opposed to the machined 47 type. And yes, the 74 (5.45x39) does sport different chambering from a 47 (7.62x39).  Dude, a russian RPK has always a stamped receiver. Only difference between RPK and RPK74 is that the '74 has a bakelite pistol grip, a RPK74 flash hider and different calibre.  FW200 is right! Link to post Share on other sites
FastWinston Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 the same differences that exists between the AK-47 and AK-74 is to be found (respectively) on the RPK and the RPK-74 Link to post Share on other sites

Â So the receiver is stamped and has a straight rear. The receiver of the RPK features another reinforcement (the rectangular area), and it also featured the dimple which just about every stamped gun has, they removed this around 1973 though... Â There are no machined RPK's made by Russia or the Soviet Union, The Bulgarians have manufactured a couple of RPK's with machined receivers, but this is something of the last 15 years.

FastWinston Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 (edited) So the rpk and the rpk-74 is the same gun? sorry meant to say akm not ak-47, but they do, the caliber and in some instances the receiver cover (and of course the bakelite (?) parts and all the other "tweaks" that the ak-74 has). But since the ak-74 is a modernized and "re caliberd" akm, the differences are small. And you are right about the receiver, but i have never said anything else, and have never said anything about a machined receiver:) At least i haven't meant to Edited November 10, 2006 by FastWinston Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 (edited) Well I'll be... the RPK 47 really doesn't use machined receivers, but stamped as well. I stand corrected in that case. Although Shroomalistic did use a 74 receiver (from an SLR105) on his RPK, which makes it... definitely not a run-off-the-mill RPK 47.
