Need second opinion on this front end of this Maadi ARM

Hey Boys!

I think I found myself another Maadi - oh yea! This is a ARM ACC Int. How does the tack look on this muzzle break? Does this look turned down? Do the ARM versions of the Maadi have the 'turned down problem'? I've been lucky with my MISR's - they have all not had the turned down barell problem.

What do you think?

That is a tack weld muzzle nut over a threaded barrel. Go for it!

Hootbro

Yep, there should be threads under that cap.

That's what I want to hear!

Hey Travis,the Maadi ARMs are threaded under the tacked on nut.

...they explode when shot....stay away from it!.....send me the guy's contact info and I will personally keep the streets safe!....DO IT FOR THE CHILDREN!

....nice find!

how do you get a manufacture date on these? I see people always post a date with there ARM's? where is it?

Look on the emblem that is etched on the left side of the rear sight base,its stamped in the center of it.

Wow, it looks like it has a fully intact lug. Is this so? Jump on it either way!

I want to remove the muzzle cap on my 93 Maadi also, what is the best tool for the job. I have a dremel tool, but should I grind the weld down or use a cutting wheel and try to cut slots where the cap and the FSB meet. Any info would be greatly apprecated. I tend to be all thumbs when I am not sure what I am doing. Also what is the size of the threads under the cap? Thanks, Gerry

On my other maadi i used the dremel with the cutting tool. worked great.

I used a dremel to remove my cap. Not sure about the size of the threads but they're the standard AKM threads that will fit a slant brake.

14X1mm LH

Is it lugged? It looks like it is intact.

I'll see when it gets here. No big deal either way with me - nice bonus if it is.

I almost forgot $285

When do you expect it to arrive? Be sure and post some pictures of it!

I expect it here sometime next week. I'll post some pre-work pics when it arrives. This Maadi like all Maadi's have a date with my Sand Blaster ---> Park Tank ----> Gun Kote. I then pre-purchased a nice Russian AKM set of wood from Z-recto he's working on/gathering .

This one should be worthy enough to sit next to my other maadi. I love these projects

I love a Maadi in Russian wood!Here is my latest one.

Very nice - what did you go wit for compliant on that one (3 - FCG, 1 - Piston, + ???). Curious - seeing if you have any better options.

ps. whats your finish on that one?

I only use US FCG,slant brake,mag follower and floorplate on the AKs that I use original furnature on.
