Cyber Soldier Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 I like the bullpup but that M70 looks a bit long on the fore-end. Still very nice though. Link to post Share on other sites

I only said M70 due to the milled receiver and the 7.62-39mm ammo magazine. Edited October 4, 2006 by Cyber Soldier Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 (edited) Not quite. The Zastava factory has NEVER produced an arm in 5.45x39, to my knowledge. Â Actually the M76 is closer to the SVD, still closer to a PSL rifle. http://www.zastava-arms.co.yu/images/vojni...76_engleski.htm Edited October 4, 2006 by PlasticMag Link to post Share on other sites
Cyber Soldier Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 (edited) Brain isn't on today, I know what the M76 is, I just forgot for that instance. If I recall it fires the old mauser round 7.92-57mm. I was unsure of the cross with the more modern of Russian weapons and old Yugoslav stuff after the split between Belgrade and Moscow in the 50s. I remember the Zastava M80 that fired Nato 5.56-45mm cartridges, an interesting weapon but I was wondering if it was ever put into common use.

renegadecow Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Both my SVU and M76 are made of wood. The synthetic finish on the bullpup is mostly due to drenching in varnish before painting with textured Krylon. At least for me, its an easy alternative to fiberglass and it works well. Â I made the kit of the Zastava on an AK being easier to make than gutting out a real one and fitting with AEG parts. So yeah, its a ######, but a pretty one. The foregrips seem longer than normal because its on the receiver of an AK, which is considerably shorter than an M76. Link to post Share on other sites
spb Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 I almost finished my RPK. Made me some serial numbers today with some metal stamps: Â 1974 KC-1701 Â 1974 --> RPK receiver without a dimple KC --> first letters of my name, but in cyrillic 1701 --> my birth date ( 17 january ) Â Â Â And serial number on the back of the topcover, but no picture of that. Â All I need now is a Molot stamp . Link to post Share on other sites
thegunrunner Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 (edited) I like those bulges you made for the receiver. Soon, I hope to make an RPK too. Â Edited October 7, 2006 by thegunrunner Link to post Share on other sites

thegunrunner Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 @thegunrunner Is that a Guarder kit AKS-74 and a VFC AKS-74UN? If so, how do they differ in external quality? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Â Correct. Â To me, the quality on both are very good. However, I think the VFC is more realistic, and a better value. The gun appears to go together like the real thing. The pin in the front trunnion actually holds the barrel, and the sights are also held on the barrel with pins. On the other hand, the Guarder uses screws; easier to remove, but less realistic. The selector switch positions are also more realistic than the Guarder and can partially field strip. Â Also, for $475, you get a complete gun. The Guarder I think I paid around $600 for the kit by itself and then I modified it with real steel wood and gas tube. Â Surprisingly, I like the VFC wood, and probably won't replace it with real steel. Â Â FW thanks for reminding me, I need to get some GP midcaps. I wish I didn't buy so many Bulgarian style star magazines, but then it's just another excuse to get a CA SLR. Link to post Share on other sites
