I believe what Century is referring to is that the previous C39 used the Polish style butt stock, where there are a top and bottom tang. The V2 uses the standard AKM buttstock as far as I know, it sounded like they opened it up to AKM spec over the milled spec. I think there was something screwy with the way the grip mounted too that they changed to being the standard T nut.

Thanks for The Input on the folding stock!
I am realy locking forward to see your Stock.
Best reguards,
Rob

I like it but I'm seeing key mod burn tattoos in someone's future. Like a Indiana jones bad guy. Lol.

No, they specifically say "furniture":

AKM furniture compatible

AKOU's rifle wasn't too far off the standard - but neither the lower handguard nor the gas tube were direct drop-ins.

Hey! ??
When will we see pix of The long rail?
And what will be special on the Alfa folding stock Compared
to the other Adapters on the market?
Thank you.
Rob

Bump for pics.

any hint at what month we could possibly expect milled?  I wouldnt want to buy something else, like magpul, in april then this comes out in may. Then again, I dont want to wait until september or something to change out my handguard.

awesome, thanks

The extended forend is only the bottom section right? If so, any idea when both the top and bottom section will be out?

Are these the gas tube rails or actual railed receiver top covers?

Roger, thanks.

Do these fit Yugo O-Paps?

Is my milled set ready yet ?!?!    :)

How about an extended lower handguard for Veprs, with an integrated lower handguard retainer? Nice turnkey solution for Vepr owners wanting to go to a more conventional handguard set-up but with all the tacti-coolness and accessory mounting options your metal guards offer.

This the version for 107CR's?

Any updates on the stock adapter?

You need a milled gun to use as a sample? I've got an SLR101R you can borrow.
Seriously.

Yea I think a real imported Milled rifle should be used to make the handguard to make sure its the right specs, not a Century, who makes absolutely nothing right

ETA: PLEASE use a "real" milled AK (IE Bulgarian, etc) when you make the milled lower alpha rail. Accordng to Rob Ski / AK operators Union Milled Century C39 v2 rifles, for example, can use Rifle Dynamics adapters which are designed for stamped that NO other milled AK can use, so something is off there big time

Once again I say : about that Vepr handguard.......

That's sharp looking!

Dumb question....Is ARC LOK compatible with M-Lok? Or are the two completely separate systems?

Thanks for the explanation Sven.

Magpul plans obsolescence into their products on purpose to generate sales. And they will probably sue you guys if you don't patent ARC LOK before they patent MLOK.

 

That's an extremely unfounded comment. MLok is open source, and in fact is only patented to protect the integrity of the system across whatever brands (for free) decide to implement it. Other than MOE slots (which still have plenty of support), I can't think of a single Magpul product that is now even close to "obsolete," so can we get back on topic of Sven's awesome forend?

NM all of this was covered, from the Swede's mouth as it were

Back on topic

Just curious here, this is a serious question as I do not know.

What is the purpose of so many different shaped mounting systems. If keymod holds things in place perfectly fine, why is there ARC loks and M-loks? Do they actually do something keymod does not?

I can understand getting rid of 1913  "qiad" rails and going to a mounting system like keymod / arc lok / m-lok so things are smooth where you dont need rails, but I am confused what the difference between the three is

About that Vepr handguard.......lots of Vepr owners out here Sven.....and I have a couple ideas you should hear.

Will do!

While i'm at it, I PM'ed Tyler the other day about that prototype M92 he posted that has your handguards on it, I don't like folding stocks, so was thinking a fixed triangle stock like you guys have would be perfect on that rifle, it's already got the handguards and you guys have a working relationship, so could you put a bug in his ear when you have time and tell him what an extraordinarily good idea this is?

Was thinking a shim of some type would be good too, to correct that slight downward slant the M92 has, bonus: machine it a little thick so as to be able to make an integral sling loop sticking out the side, pretty much like an AR lockplate that has this type of attachment. They work great if you run a single point sling especially.

ETA: well the ideas I had for a Vepr HG aren't complex at all so this is a good place to jot them down and maybe others might chime in with what they think.

Vepr handguard: My first thought was yes, make one that attaches to the factory location with it's odd-sized screw, and that has some merit, but maybe even better would be to make one with an integrated front handguard retainer, the aftermarket ones for Vepr are just clamps basically, whether two piece or one piece, seems simple enough. And this also frees up the possibilities with regards to length, I mention this because I am a fan of longer handguards anyway, the standard AK's length is just too short for me. I like how the Yugo's have an inch longer handguards, they look better to me too, more evenly proportioned than short handguards and lots of barrel sticking out. More room too for accessories to be mounted via keymod etc.

So a Yugo length lower with integrated retainer, be nice if someone would make a Yugo-type gas tube cut to AKM standard length, but it's easy as hell to DIY, there's only a half inch of metal on the front that needs to come off and then re-flare, and a tiny amount of work on the rear lug to fit the Vepr trunnion.

Here's what the Vepr looks like with modified gas tube/handguard, the lower is a factory piece I cut back to just in front of the mounting block, you can kind of look and see where a yugo-length lower would go to by looking at where the top guard ends.

hmmm.......well then when you guys do make the milled alpha, skip the keymod and go straight to the arc lok!

Three gens of mags, two gens of BUIS, AFG, MOE, etc.

 

Magpul also sued ETS for having a front and rear leg on their magazine followers.




Do some research before making unfounded comments


You can bet Magpul would have sued Manticore if the MLOK patent would have been filed first, that's how they do business.


Awesome handguard Sven. If you make them in Krink or M92 PAP pattern I'll buy a couple. I do think the keymod looks nicer on shorter handguards but I'm not that picky. Keep up the good work!

Yu-Go! Yu-Go! Yu-Go! Yu-Go!
