Zombie00 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 ^ I got the ebbairsoft version it works quite well.. whats it going on? Well, I guess the ebairsoft version is made for Airsoft and that's why it worked. As far as I know, only Real Sword Aks are identical too the real steel part on the receiver's length matter, that sorely being the reason of their unique gearbox (regular V3 GB don't fit on real Ak).

bladerunner168 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) Is that rust or some special sort of treatment? Edited January 5, 2012 by bladerunner168 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Snigel Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Lawl, why did you remove your picture? That is rust, the top cover is a real Romanian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bladerunner168 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Picture was intended for a PM, I've already posted it on this thread a few pages back. I very much like the rustic look of your AK, it looks like it's seen a few good skirmishes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
muckymick Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Won't work, as airsoft AK receivers are longer than RS receivers. good job the main rail is two pieces and the tri rail bit allow's it to be axtended to fit longer/shorter receivers. not sure why they made it that way but it is also sold as fitting siaga shotguns, is that receiver longer than an ak47 receiver. My main concern was it not fitting into the rear site holder on an airsoft receiver. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DFM56 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Airsoft rear sight blocks take real steel stuff just fine. Also, make sure the unit can adjust as much as you need it to. Airsoft receivers are 5mm longer than real ones, they might only have built it to adjust for a very small amount of variation in receiver length. Saiga shotguns take the same length dust covers as the rifles. I don't see how that would work on one, though. At least the ones we get over here since they don't have a traditional RSB..

RacingManiac Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Does anyone make something like this for Airsoft? Or I'd have to resort to use the RS version.... https://www.venomtactical.com/shop/gas-block-p-72.html Thinking about using that instead of a AK104 style one so I can stick with 14x1 thread(probably rethread the outer barrel itself)....

aznriptide859 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Ack, those Rifle Dynamics people lied to me! No that doesn't exist in airsoft, but IIRC RS AK flash hiders are all threaded in 14mm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 AFAIK the RS AK104 style front sight/gas block are threaded in M24 x 1.5, I think LCT's version is the same. I want to keep the blackout so I really don't want to go big thread....The clamp-style block doesn't need pin slot neither, so it might be easier to fit.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PianoBlack Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 AK47/M flashhiders are M14 x 1 LH, the AK74/100 series are the M24. I've been debating picking up a Surefire device. -Piano Quote Link to post Share on other sites
adadqgg Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) Just want to add fuel to the flash hider fire. I would like to confirm the larger muzzle brake size of VFC/CYMA ak's. I have measured my LCT one and it is definately M24x1.5mm Can someone confirm other brands please? I have searched but cant find anything concrete. Cheeeers! VFC(and Dboys Ak74) has an adaptor on the front sight block. Front sight block itself is 14mm threaded as far as I can tell; but the adaptor puts it at 24mm. Kind of stupid to have; it is not like I will ever throw anything else onto the threads. Edited January 8, 2012 by adadqgg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aznriptide859 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Well depending on manufacturer the 100 series has a 14mm to 24mm adapter; my VFC AK105 did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DFM56 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 CYMA also has a 14mm threaded barrel and a 24mm adapter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Well I went ahead and ordered the gas block, a 14mm die, and a shorter tightbore inner barrel(I think stock is 407mm for GHK, going down to a 370mm, AEG barrel compatible)....we'll see how this advanture turns in a couple of weeks...

aznriptide859 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Is the RS selector a drop in? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 It's just the trigger finger manipulation tab he's riveted on there: http://www.solartactical.com/AK-EXTENDED-SAFETY-SELECTOR-TAB-127.htm Wish I had a tool set here for riveting, learnt how to do it but your average DIY store just doesn't seem to carry the sets. Certainly opens up a lot of options for working on certain types of AKs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 The GHK selector removes relatively easily, if not at all alike with RS....You unscrew the pivet(I did it with a slip-jaw plier, which is why its kinda marred), then the selector just comes off. Its keyed on the actual internal bits itself. I just took the tab, marked the holes with the punch on the selector, took it to a drill press a work and drilled the holes. The Rivet just needs to be hammered on from behind. You really should do it on a copper block or something softer than a steel vise, which is why my rivet heads are also flattened and discolored.....
