I had been sitting on a box of parts for an AK-74 build for almost 2 years due to moving and work situations and I finally decided to settle in and build this weekend. It'll be nice to have another 5.45 gun. I have to say this came out just liked I planned in my head. The only changes I may make is adding a Saberwerks KOP for a red dot, which shouldn't be too hard with the clamp-on gas block/front sight.


Parts list:

Bulgarian AK-74 parts kit
NoDak Spud Receiver
Venom Tactical Bolton gas block/front sight
VLTOR stock tube with Magpul MOE stock
US Palm Grip
AK Builder chrome lined barrel
Barrel threaded to 1/2-28 by ADCO
VG6 Precision Gamma brake

It needs to have a final finish put on. I haven't decided if I'll ship it out for a cerakote job or just rattle-can it myself. Whichever I choose I'm going to shoot it a bunch before I do it.

As Armed Farret said this is an Engage Armament Rifle,  I was only the photographer in this..  I can tell you a few things (some are obvious) it's an SBR chambered in 7.62x39 on NoDak Spud receiver, painted in some shade of green, it has a Venom Antidote brake, Venom Bolton gas block and wood furniture.

AK 74 all matching Bulgarian kit with original barrel built on an akbuilder flat

[Last Edit: mykrowyre] [#18]


Bulgarian AK-74 with US .223 barrel and Circle 10 5.56 mags. Bent from a flat. Original 5.45 bolt, runs fine.

Matched furniture using minwax "gun stock" stain, and 6 coats of "Waterlox" for the finish, wiped on, and knocked down a little with steel wool.

I enjoyed building this one.  It is built on an Atlantic Arms "AAM-47" receiver.  Beautiful item.  The parts are (mostly) from an all new M+M Industries Romanian PM90 parts kit from AIM.  Obviously I switched the furniture.  I used a melonite 4150 barrel from Windham Weaponry.  Gorgeous barrel!  I am a huge fan of old-school Bushmaster/ WW barrels. G2 trigger group.  Pic shows it with an MI knockoff optics mount.  I used a UTG, non-traditional, side rail attached with screws.  I know you purists will curse me, but I really like how easy they are to install, how they hold zero, and how universal they seem to be for AK mounts.

Rifle runs like a champ.

Lockdown project completed.  This is my first AK build and was really a fun project!

Attachment Attached File


For my first build I took the easier path and started with an Arms of America kit with populated, headspaced barrel.  It’s their current WBP Polish forged trunnion kit with Polish CHF CL barrel, and I built on a Kalashnikov-USA “Tullytown” receiver.  It went together super easy with the Toth Tool barrel tool and rivet jaws.  I finished it with Norrell’s moly resin.  I had to trim the top cover a bit to length and in the recoil spring latch area but otherwise everything fit great.  The buttstock is an Ironwood laminate I had picked up years ago for a WASR that ended up in the parts stash.  Handguard is an RS Regulate, and the muzzle brake is off of the PSA AK-E (their “tank brake”).  Here are a couple of build WiP pics:

Lockdown 2020 continues to diminish the kit stash.  Romanian kit with US barrel and a BFPU handguard set and grip from sovietstocks.  I had a 100% receiver in the stash collecting dust and surface rust that, with a little cleanup and light scrub to brighten the rivets and edges, ended up matching the wear on the kit pretty well.  Added a ratty mag and a 30 year old Soviet sling and it came out looking like an old AK should.Attachment Attached File
