my_plague_666 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Very nice looking AK. I tried a cobra scope on mine last nigh and all I can think about is how to get one. I even think I could live without being able to fold the stock. just get a pouch for the kobra. the whole point of the mounting system is for QD optics with no need to be re-zeroed. bung the kobra in a pouch when you need/want the stock folded.

RUSHER2 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 ey guys i havent posted lately, heres my problem On the GHK aks74u the selector is being very weird everything else on the rifle is going perfect. this is whats happening so when i put it in semi and rack the bolt back it shoots in full auto and you know when you pull the bolt back and the hammer is still down its not supposed to go back into safe? well it is and its letting me put the hammer back up when i pull the trigger in safe its just all backwards and messed up? anyone want to help me or know how to fix this?

snorkelman Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 (edited) Quick answer - when set to safe it doesnt sound as though the internal paddle of the selector is sitting at the correct angle to engage the fingers on the trigger block and spring loaded rear hook properly. Or the selector is broken Padle angle When paddle angle is set properly the selector set to safe will lock the trigger and prevent it being pulled See if setting the lever just below safe locks the trigger - if so your paddle is currently angled too far forward Now I'm not sure if its possible to set it like that given the trigger mechanism design (Id need mine in front of me) to check for sure, but your 'full auto on semi' suggest it might be If that doesnt lock the trigger then open the top cover and with top cover still open see if you can move the selector above the normal safe position (dont force it - just see if it'll move that direction a little under normal pressure) If it can, see wether that locks the trigger - if so the paddle is currently angled too far back. Of the two 'paddle angled too far back' is the one Id normally expect but it doesnt really tie in with your full auto when set to semi (with paddle too far back your more likely to end up with 'semi when set to full auto') broken lever The paddle is at the bottom of two 'arms' The left hand arm fits into a hole in the left hand side of the receiver, while the right hand arm has a groove in it for an E-clip that fits inside the righthand side of the receiver. As well as that groove the right hand arm is threaded for the selector lever screw to screw into it. With receiver cover open check that the right hand arm hasnt cracked If that right hand arm fractures then the selector lever wont actually fall off the gun (the E-clip on the inside will prevent the part its attached to coming out of the receiver, while the selector lever screwed onto the outside of it will prevent the broken part dropping inside) Instead the paddle will sort of hang there like a damp noodle in roughly the correct position and the external selector may well look (and feel) as though nothing is wrong. Cos of that, while the paddle might be blocking the trigger fingers etc just like its supposed to on safe, it wont have the strength to actually resist the trigger moving (either by user pulling trigger or by hammer trying to get under the front hooks while gun is being cocked) Likewise when you rotate the external selector lever downwards thru the various modes (safe, then auto then semi), that break means its wont neccessarily be moving the selector paddle far enough back inside the gun to allow free movement of the springloaded rear hook (which will prevent the gun from firing semi and leaving it in auto regardless of selector position) In fact thanks to the break it may not be rotating the internal paddle at all For any more of an answer than that other posible causes etc ask the same question in the GHK review thread or create a thread in technical forum for it (It'll save filling the AK picture thread with back and forth questions and answers and photos and sketches in order to fix it) Edited January 31, 2009 by snorkelman Link to post Share on other sites

mikoyan99 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 My new AKMS: G&G, havn't had a chance to test fire yet, but otherwise very impressed with it. I assume on these types you can't just switch the front ends like you could on maruis? I was thinking of buying a cheap AKSU front and and using it as an AKMSU when the mood took me. My old one's for sale (see sig for link) if anyone wants it. -Matt Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 you can as long as it's LTC construction. heres what you need just get the thumbhole grip (also on that site) and try to find the correct flash hider (or get someone to make you one) Link to post Share on other sites

mightyjebus Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 *picture request* can someone take a picture of the hop up in a GHK GBB AK74SU. I think mine is buggered as the mags are no longer feeding and I think the little nub in front of the hop hole has snapped off. Ideally the picture should be good quality and show the hop up from the mag hole in the receiver. cheers in advance Link to post Share on other sites

AnotherJesus Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 That's the exact same list of guns, as WGC have in their LCT section. I'd guess, maby, just maby, they are LCT guns. Link to post Share on other sites
Squeezee Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 (edited) ^^^Cool RPD, very COD4^^^^ Is this really even important? I doubt anyone cares that it is from COD4.

mightyjebus Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 snorkelman, thats just what I need and it confirms my hop is buggered. god knows where I will get a replacement so looks like I will need to do a bit of butchering Link to post Share on other sites
RedScare Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 you can get replacement parts from ra-tech Link to post Share on other sites
mightyjebus Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 or a could stick a bloody big screw into it and hope for the best Someone needs to make a metal hop unit for this GBB and while they are at it they need to make a better metal inner selector part as the monkey metal one bends like rubber. BTW the big screw works and the mags feed fine. Link to post Share on other sites

They left mine out of the kit they sent (so sent it seperately via ordinary airmail rather than EMS) but as it was a small packet only took a few days Still havent had mine fully in one peice and operating as it should lol After hop unit finally turned up I got it together bar the selector (early dboys RK01 has the left fake receiver rivet in like a limpet so had to wait till I got access to the arbor press to force it out) In meantime a few mags worth of 'no selector so semi-only' useage was enough to start wearing the bolt carrier ..so I've got the bolt carrier back out to mock up a redesign.. now bolt carrier is back out I finally get acess to the arbor and press that fake rivet out hurrah.. only to find that when selector is fitted the selector paddle is fouling the finger on the springloaded rear trigger hook anytime I try to set selector back to auto from semi (smacks head) Edit - I wonder if thats part of the reason a few folks have broken the selector arm inside the receiver (eg with enough brute force I could probably force the paddle past the spring loaded rear trigger hook on way back up from semi to auto, but would be putting a lot of strain on the selector arm doing that) Anyways (hopefully) by time bolt is redone at start of next week I'll have had time to fettle the selector paddle and actually have the whole thing running as it should for once lol Edit - good to see you got it sorted Edited January 31, 2009 by snorkelman Link to post Share on other sites

mightyjebus Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 so far I have had the following problems with mine: 1. plastic chamber on the bolt snapped - superglued back together and ordered a metal one from RA Tech 2. selector bending all over the place - need to reset to right position to get safe, semi and full auto twice now 3. hop up thingy snapped off and fixed with a screw 4. let's not even talk about the mags. apart from that it's a great gun to fire. The blowback and noise is top notch but i'm beginning to think that skirmishing with it isn't going to happen. it might end up next to my TOP MP40 as a wall hanger Link to post Share on other sites
