aznriptide859 Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Sorry, I wasn't having a go at you or anyone in particular, just ranting about how seriously people take a sport played with toy guns. I'm sure same concept could apply to some geardos here on Arnie's XD. Link to post Share on other sites
validtumoralarm Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 New Echo1 RPK! It performed fantastically in the pouring rain today. Due to the rain, my indoor pictures are horrible. Sorry... I had o make sure everything was nice and dry! Link to post Share on other sites
Schultz98 Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 (edited) Darklite man you gotta chill, I definitely know where your coming from and agree the duty car thing gets UBER old/annoying. But not every guy who does old school soviet impressions is like that lol. Look at my aksu with wrong mag, suppressor, rail w/ foregrip and such and then look at my afghan kit. There's a time and place for everything. But I do find it annoying when people literally speak like they ARE a propaganda poster... that *suitcase* totally gets on my nerves, not even soviet soldiers talked like that Edited December 19, 2010 by Schultz98 Link to post Share on other sites
ComradeMP1 Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 I made a discovery some time ago. You can take your G&G RK03/04 bolt and with some force twist of the little gas piston and with some drilling to open up the opening and jam a real full length AK piston. Like real AK piston installation you drill a hole through the bolt and put a screw through to hold the piston in place. Also you can put a real gas tube on there but takes a bit of cutting on one end and doesn't quite line up with the lower hand guard retainer. Though I must say, if you can go G&G bolt with the gas piston mod, do it. The rack is just simply amazing and louder than that tiny clank with the TM/VFC style bolts. Since the gas piston is also hitting metal inside the gas block, it's natural that it would sound louder and much sexier. Also I must note that the way the lever is on the G&G, it doesn't really hold anything in place with the modded gas tube, though some tape stuck in there to help make a pressure fit works great. I love my G&G. I've done so many things to her. She's a naughty dirty girl. Also on the Duty Car talk. While I do like speaking in a most progressive manner to both confuse and confound our Imperialist NATO aggressionist enemies. I do have to say it's over done and gets annoying real fast. Everyone has there tastes, and as bad as they may be (in your opinion), you can't do anything about it so why get all worked up over it? Link to post Share on other sites
Rvrstyxx Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 frantically masturbating into a crusty Telnyashka and moaning "SOVIET PROGRESSIVE STATE PARTY VAN HURRRGH" whilst rubbing their nipples with their khaki RD54 magpouches.

Crazy8 Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Back on topic It was raining. We were playing. The rain on my AKM looked amazing. Link to post Share on other sites
validtumoralarm Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 validtumoralarm very nice RPK. How do you find the rear sight block,is it steel or pot metal? Thanks! The RSB is steel, as is most of the gun. The sight itself wiggles from side to side a bit, but it does its job perfectly well. Link to post Share on other sites

DFM56 Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Drill holes through the receiver extension (measure the diameter of the stock screw and use whatever drill bit you have that is slightly larger) in the top and bottom. My camera went nuts and I lost the in progress pictures, but all I did was; File a flat into the threads where the hole will be so the drill bit will not slip around in the threads as you start the drill (would not need to do this if you use a drill press and have the receiver extension clamped down, I used a hand drill and would not recommend it if you have access to a press) Drill a pilot hole (1/16) Use pilot hole as a guide to drill full size hole (iirc 5/32) countersink bottom hole The receiver extension is surprisingly solid with the bottom screw tightened. I still need to shim the inside and the gap between the main tang and receiver extension to take some stress off of it though. The gas tube I had to use to fit the plastic handguard still needs some more fitting (the original gas tube is one piece unlike the old CYMA gas tubes, much easier to work with, but they are not interchangeable without modification. The fake gas piston also catches slightly in the old style CYMA tube but it will move freely with a little force). Overall I like how she looks. I might try to make a replica of the black plastic RPK74 handguards if I have time. When I'm done I'll be able to quickly swap between furniture sets as no modifications to the receiver or barrel were made. Also, stock opinions? I'm thinking a CTR for this one since it's what I want on my RS saiga and I'll be able to swap it around when I get the VLTOR tube for that.. Link to post Share on other sites
aznriptide859 Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Seems the stock tangs might break off easily this way... Link to post Share on other sites
DFM56 Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 no modification were made to the tang, and the receiver extension is attached to the tang the same way the original stock is. I don't really see how it could be putting additional stress on the tang. Link to post Share on other sites
GRIM! Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 That looks pretty cool, what brand is that and what does the rear end of the reciver look like when the m4stock is not there? I tryed this on one of my Inokatsu AKM´s yesterday and it could not fit right on without modding it. Link to post Share on other sites

chas Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 You can always rely on KA to make cool little accesories, like this rear-sight mounted scope rail, wich will alow you to build slightly modernised AKs, like the ones below. http://www.cobraairsoft.com/product_info.php?products_id=5397 Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) looking at it i'd guess it's for the AKSU. shame it's not a coupy of the larue irondot, that thing looks cool Edited December 28, 2010 by my_plague_666 Link to post Share on other sites

aznriptide859 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 That actually makes the gun look worse lol...at least get an Ultimak rail or something. Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I think its quite good, but it fits better for guns like the TM EBB series which have folding stocks and storages the battery in the handguard, making impossible to mount an ultimak rail, so the rail lets the user mount a low profile optic. Other option is just screwing a G36 rail in the handguard ourselves Link to post Share on other sites
