PlasticMag Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Does the JG Advanced RIS AK (Krebs replica) top cover work on an Echo 1 AK74UN? I am looking to do a build based on a few illustrations for a comic book proposal I have been working on for a few months. I need some better props for reference for the Spetznaz in the story. Thanks for any help on this and if there is any tricked out AK74's you have seen with a fully railed top cover that would be cool too. No, the rear sight block is all wrong. The only rail for the receiver cover that I know of attaches to the rear sight itself, I'll try to find the link. Link to post Share on other sites

navymp28 Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 What I am looking for is a rear sight that is more like the Krebs or the Galil. But if it is not possible I guess I am SOL. Link to post Share on other sites

DFM56 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 Literally the first time I've seen an AK with railed handguards that I like I bet that front end is nice and light, unlike the small car I have hanging off the front of mine! Might have to look at getting an extra outer barrel and setting something like that up for when I need a lighter gun. Link to post Share on other sites
CapaciousZepher Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 I'm looking for hand guards like that in AKSU flavor. Anyone know of any options? - Zepher Link to post Share on other sites
DFM56 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 Anyone know where to pick up a CYMA AK104/105 front end separately? And by that I mean is anyone selling one? Need something lighter for field use, but still need the option to run larger accessories for the occasional CQB game, and I don't want to bother with assembling/disassembling the ultimAK ever again.

sowi Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 (edited) where did you get the ultimak system?? I don't think you'lll get a cyma 104 front set separately, it's damn hard to get these things Edited August 20, 2010 by sowi Link to post Share on other sites
DFM56 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 WGC was the only place I've been able to find the LCT ultimAKs. Someone was selling a CYMA 104 in the classifieds, and I stupidly told my friend about it instead of buying it myself! Don't need the receiver, but it would sure be nice to have an extra gearbox to mess around with as well. Might have to look into hacking up an LCT 104 front end to fit the CYMA receiver eventually.

Need something lighter for field use, but still need the option to run larger accessories for the occasional CQB game, and I don't want to bother with assembling/disassembling the ultimAK ever again. I´ve got the same problem. Of course there are LCT foreparts available, like this: http://www.wgcshop.com/wgc2008/main/product_detail1.php?search_From=searchItem&item=LCT-FP-AK104&search=special&rs=forepart&catid=&cat= but I´m not sure if it will fit VFC + the price really. Instead, I was thinking about getting a Dboys 74 outer barrel and cut it down to a 105 size. But again, I´m not sure if this possible to do. I mean to fit the AK105 frontsight/gas block to it (such as http://www.ebairsoft.com/ak104-iron-made-front-sight-flash-hider-p-1280.html). Atleast judging by pictures it seems like AK47 and 105 have the same lenght forepart up to frontsight/gas block. Correct me if I´m incorrect Link to post Share on other sites
waxxer Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 What handguard is that you are going to be using? probably an APS TDI clone from ehobby....when its in stock again. it looks decent enough on the pics. http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/a-p-s-ak74-type-tactical-railed-handguard-for-ak-aeg-dark-earth.html Link to post Share on other sites

The whole gas block comes out instead of just the barrel when you unscrew the screw under the back sight Edited August 22, 2010 by Schultz98 Link to post Share on other sites

And of course the older Mauri based ones won't work either, and I don't know about the fore part conversions for the latest Mauri 74M. Have a couple of Dboys and LCT & Unicorn AK kits how is the fitment of CYMA bodies to LCT front ends such as the ULTIMAK? VFC based Cymas should be fine (single interference pin) but old Mauri style Cymas maybe not (4 screws in the bottom of the receiver) as the tab at the rear of lower fore-end is smaller on a Mauri based receiver. Which model of Cyma AK do you have? #Opps mis-read that about front and fore-end - however standard LCT front ends shouldn't fit, Mauri based ones may depending on the exact model. It is front-end (the part from truncheon forward) and not fore-end (part one holds) you're referring to? Edited August 22, 2010 by DarkMM Link to post Share on other sites
DFM56 Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 how is the fitment of CYMA bodies to LCT front ends such as the ULTIMAK? my CYMA body didn't need any modification to fit the UltimAK, although it was a pain because no instructions were provided and I couldn't find anything on the internet. Protip, all of the parts that come in the package are needed. I bent my receiver slightly because I didn't use the two small wedge pieces that fit between the receiver and the back of the rail, etc..
