Gish Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Since it's based on AK this probably fits here (Or in the SMG thread) Silverback Bizon PBS Silencer and a PK-AS sight 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ivan le Fou Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Looks very nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katotaka Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Nice one Gish I always want to have a look inside PK-AS, wondering if it's a prism-ish sight, low magnifying scope, or just reflex sight with black reticle.........wait, is that possible? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DanHS Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Nice, how do you like the Bizon, and which brand suppressor did you use? I'm thinking of getting one and going Polarstar when the V3 engines come out, with a suppressor they're so quiet, and I'll have something quite different from all the Polarstar powered AR's on the field. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
discodante Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Plum is almost as nice as wood right? This one's a GBBR 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bersy Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Nice discodante thats what i'm thinking of doing with my VFC AKS74N, when i can find some nice RS plum grips for a decent price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
discodante Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 I wish I could tell you where I got mine, but they were sourced by the gunsmith who assembled it for me. I was invoiced $40.99 CDN for the handguards and pistol grip, if that's cheap enough I can ask the guy where he got them and PM you the site. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DanHS Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Thought I'd share these as I'm waiting for the stain to dry before sealing them: Without flash With flash Details to follow once they're done and installed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DanHS Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) Nice discodante thats what i'm thinking of doing with my VFC AKS74N, when i can find some nice RS plum grips for a decent price. I never ordered from this place, but they have the handguards, I don't see the stock though. I have a set of plum Bulgarian furniture I'm saving for a possible VFC in the future, I got it with a demilled kit gun here in the US, I'm not sure if US retailers can export furniture or not, there are a lot of restrictions on exporting gun components. http://soviet-military.com/product/soviet-russian-army-ak-set-handguardsgrip-polymer-sm-28-158 Edited November 12, 2012 by DanHS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DanHS Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 (edited) Ok, Fakelite grips done! I wish there wasn't such a short time limit to edit posts, I would have just added these to my earlier post. Anyways, here's the finished product on two of my lower-end guns. And my technique: For the base I used Valspar satin finish "La Fonda Copper" spray paint, I chose it because it produces a nice thin and smooth finish, and the color looks a bit like Bakelite already. Then I did the usual Miniwax Red Mahogany using the cheap horsehair brush, like I did earlier with the mags. Then after letting it dry a few days, I sealed it with the Miniwax 2in1 Polyurethane using a foam brush to carefully brush on a thin, even coat. I did try applying the polyurethane too perfectly on one of the grips, and you can see a light spot on part of the grip on the shorty AK74, where I brushed too many times and rubbed off some of the stain. I think the stain was a bit too thin too, as they came out slightly too light (they look about right for Bakelite mags, but other real Bakelite items I have are darker), and I neglected to paint and stain inside the hole for the grip screw, and by the trigger guard. I also feel they may be a bit too shiny, I may try some semigloss or satin polyurethane. I will try to do it a bit darker next time, and make a perfect Fakelite grip for my RPK!

WARNING: 'AK-purist' do not read my following question: MAGPUL MOE hanguard modded with resin-laminate to fit on AK? What do you think???

Isamu Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I think there is an adaptor to fit AR handguards to AKs at ehobbyasia, CKinnerley has an AK in such heretical configuration he may help you better 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Murdoc Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I see no adaptor, just that... terrible hybrid AEG. So I want to make it else. Thax! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Murdoc Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) I know; I have a Bullpup M14 monster too... I want MAGPUL, because I don't like so many rails... I already have a CTR stock too. That will be the base gun... naturally wood parts will be able to replant... Edited November 19, 2012 by Murdoc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
