Airsoft Megastore’s Mule has produced a custom CYMA AK for their first Modded May prize winner:
Modded May Week 1 Custom CYMA AK
Last week we posted a CYMA CM035A as a giveaway prize and had the winner tell our very own airsoft expert, Mule, how they wanted their new CYMA AK74U modified. Jordan Bredeson was the winner of the first giveaway! Check out his custom “Mule Modded” AK74U below.

Take a look at the photos to see what Mule did. Also, be sure to watch the video below to see how you can paracord wrap your AK skeleton stock shown in the photos.
Mule replaced the standard AK flash hidder with a “Booster” sound amplifying flash hider.
Then he made a custom hand guard to fit the AK using a hand guard made for a full-size AK. The lower hand guard was cut to size and fused together using JB weld epoxy. While the top hand guard was trimmed to fit the AK handguard mounts. The notch on the barrel where the lower handguard caps had to be widened to fit the newer cap.
The grip was heat stippled using a wood burning kit. A pointed tip was used to make the textured dimple and stippled around Mule.
Lastly, 36ft of black 550 paracord used to make a spider-wrap weave on the top side(18ft) and bottom side(18ft) on the Skeleton stock.
The gearbox was “MULE-Spec’d” with all pertaining internals polished and re-shimmed optimizing OEM performance using a 8.4v battery. Chrono test showed FPS at a consistent 380 average using .20g BB’s. The effective range was estimated to be around 150ft.
We also used this chance to film a new segment of videos for you. We’re calling these episodes, “Mule Mods”. Get up close and personal with our very own David, AKA Mule, as he shows you some cool DIY airsoft tips and tricks. In this very first episode, he shows you how to easily wrap an AK skeleton stock with paracord making it “grippier” and more comfortable. As with all DIY’s please proceed at your own risk. Have fun but most importantly, be safe!
Tell us what you think of this DIY and if we should continue making these videos with Mule!If you missed out on our week 1 custom-modded AEG giveaway, by Mule, then here’s your second chance! We’re giving away an AEG for free and the best part is you can tell Mule how you would like him to custom-mod it before we ship it to you! Click here for more details: http://on.fb.me/11QHxFa
