Hopefully there is no canting issues due to these being a contract overrun. Remember when these were in gun stores around 08'-09'. I thought the long barrel looked stupid and didn't buy, no SBRs in MI at the time either. The UR's were around $1000-1100 back then so the price is not all that bad. For reference I paid $700-800 for the FR versions NIB. Last one that I remember coming up for sale was $2k already SBR'd on AKForum. Now all I need is the 107CR and build a 104CR to have all three barrel lengths in all three calibers for the complete collection. View Quote Congrats. Which one did you get? Robert at K-var saidthat this batch will be sold out by Monday-Tuesday of next week.The emails have gone out,so the masses will flock for sure now I put mine on layaway too. Did they charge you the minimum 25% down right away or just $10? I ask as they required the 25% down on mine although i put 30% down |

Here is my thoughts on a crooked rear sight. I would imagine one could drill out the rivets,realign the rear sight and press in new rivets. Shouldnt be too hard if you have the tools.My AK smith would probably do that for a 6 pack of beer. I wouldn't buy another top cover unless you just used it for yourself and if you ever sold the rifle you could put the original back on. The front sight on these wont matter if its canted if your going to SBR it as the gas restrictor has to be removed once the barrel is cut for the rifle to cycle properly.Its a bushing of steel covering the 3mm gas port. FSB has to be removed from the rifle to take the restrictor out.From what i understand these are only on the 107UR models.

Yes, Robert at K-Var said all the 107UR will have it.Its like a bushing or a washer that needs to be removed once the barrel is chopped. I personally will have my smith chop the barrel and test to see if it cycles with 50-100 rounds before removing the restrictor,just in case it cycles correctly i wont have to have him remove the FSB.A few have cycled correctly without removing it but for it to operate correctly it will most likely need to be removed.You dont want to enlarge the gas port opening after the restrictor is out though.3mm is factory spec and is already done for you. Any bigger and you will beat the rifle to death with the extra gas from an enlarged opening.Anyone doing this just needs to be careful they dont go into the factory gas port when removing the bushing,some bushings pop right out and some need to be drilled out.As long as you drill no bigger then 3mm you wont hurt anything if you happen to go to deep past the bushing A guy over on the files is going to do a step by step process of how to do it.It sounds complicated but its really not once you see it.I will post a link here when his tutorial is up |

I got a 51 on layaway
Oh Lord help me if my wife finds the credit card bill. I just bought a Draco and a 10/22 and put a WASR on layaway as well since they may stop imports on them Plus the 2 cans last month and an Omega that I almost have enough for. Of which I may wait on, now that I have this 107UR in the pipeline. The sickness is powerful indeed |

What is the cost difference between buying an SLR-107UR SBR and paying a smith to do the work on a 16" SLR-107UR? I am trying to decide on buying the rifle or SBR. I would have to ship the rifle out for SBR work. Please help, as I would like to get the best deal for my limited funds. Thanks.

Paid mine in full on 10/30 - I absolutely cannot wait to get this gun in hand.

I saved quite a bit on my 104UR by cutting the barrel myself. But that is easy, not everyone has the tools to pull the gas block and reinstall it. I'm sure someone will be along shortly to tell me they did it with a chisel and big ass hammer while holding it between their knees. Figure an AK smith will probably want $200 or so for the barrel and gas block work. Then engraving your form 1 info will run $50-100 depending on who does it. Then paying shipping to get all this done... another $50-100. Going the factory SBR route will probably end up only costing about $200 more than cutting down a rifle. To many people that is worth not voiding the warranty or having to get Form 1 info engraved on the gun. But at the same time, a lot of guys don't want to wait months to get their SBR transferred, they'd rather have the rifle to play with while the form 1 is pending. You really can't go wrong either way you go. |

That was fast! Man I'm glad, (or cursing depending on how you look at it) that I'm around here, otherwise I would have never known they were available again.

Ok, who's got a lead on triangle folders for these? It's time to put togther all the other stuff I want for mine whilst I wait for it to get out of jail. I'm thinking a spare triangle folder, plum and wood furniture and a regular booster should fill the need while I twidle my thumbs waiting for my form 4 to clear.
