@tex-zen what did it take to get the tranquillo brake on the commie threads?
The Larue tranquillo suppressor is what I want to put on it.

On the Tiger it just needed a Griffin thread adaptor to go from 24x1.5 to 5/8x24 and some work on the muzzle face to be sure everything was concentric

On the FEYG they already had a cheesey 5/8x24 sleeve on the barrel for suppressors

Interesting, does the sleeve screw on to the threads like a bushing?

No, it uses the FSB pins

FEG didn't do a great job with the part either, it's clearly temporary and not well made. Probably done this way under the assumption that everyone would swap to a classic FSB, but they also told everyone it was suppressor ready, and it isn't, not really

Thanks for the photo to illustrate.
I'll find a better solution than that.
Thanks tx-zen.

Who knew that a 9mm PCC AK was such a riot?


I'd be interested in hearing about the Wolfman when you get it. I have the Wolf 9SD and am really happy with it, but I've heard the Wolfman is way better

what is your guys "perfect" barrel length for a suppressed AK?
I'm going to try my first on a 10.5" Barrel,M24x1.5, J-MAC x-37 Brake/Adapter, KNS piston. Any tips would be much appreciated!

The underfolder Npap isn't mine.  I had the wood refinished on it at the same time as my Zpap for my buddy as part of his Xmas gift.  A guy named AK Shine did the refinish on both and they came out killer looking. The tiger stripes on mine really pop now in the right light.  My buddy wanted classic Russian red and it looks far better than the previous owners shitty attempt at spray painting it.

Got the Jmac 2 port brake out front on the M70 to run keymo equipped cans.  For now using my Sandman K and ebrake.  I also installed the KNS adjustable piston.  I wish I had more of the Brown Bear subs given the current state of world affairs....... They sound almost like my 300 blk AR pistol with the Sandman K.  The AK action being just a bit clunkier still doesn't sound too bad although I found I'm pretty much backing off the KNS piston practically all the way for reliable function with the subs.  With typical 7.62x39 supers the KNS piston about halfway seems to be the sweet spot.  Overall I'm happy with the way my Zastava turned out.  I was just super thankful it was concentric.  





Really gassing now for a 5.56 AK patterned gun to also suppress.  Or maybe a 9mm like the KP9.

Now that my zpap92 SBR underfolder conversion has been completed this gun is much more capable with the suppressor. The stock is rock solid allowing consistant accurate shots at longer distances with the Wolverine. I am still using the factory piston is it neccesary to put in a KNS piston? So far it cycles subs/supers perfectly.

Mine is very similar and I notice that is very gassy with supers. I put a KNS piston in mine, but haven't had a chance to tune it yet. I'm expecting it to make a huge difference.

I prefer the 12" AK105 with a full length can and FH for hunting pigs or as my go to rifle, or a fullsize 74 with a K can unless my buddies bitch too much about me being a half-savage not totally suppressed shooter


8" is fantastic on the AKSU or KR9/Vityaz style PCC plus the pistol cans are so much lighter for the 9mm PCCs

I’d personally say it’s highly recommended in terms of reduced parts wear and just making the gun more comfortable to shoot. Only had one AK that wouldn’t function reliably without one. All the others I’ve tried my Wolverine on would cycle and function fine with a stock piston, but it did seem like it was running the action faster and harder.

Has anyone installed the KNS piston in a Saiga 7.62x39? I noticed that my gas piston length is shorter than a standard AKM, but that a standard AKM bolt group will fit. Trying to decide which one to get.

Make sure to measure your current piston and then you will be able to pick the correct one based on size.

I know this isn't exactly the thread for it, but since so many seem to be running night vision...

I just tried a few things out on my Saiga suppressed SBR. I put a TA33 ACOG on the zenitco topcover. Definitely have a chin weld, but it isn't too bad. I was planning on a the 3x24 instead to get a lower height over bore, but am reconsidering that. Another consideration, I just pulled the DBAL A3 from my home defense SBR and put it on the right side of the AK. Obviously I'd prefer to top mount it, and use my TAPS switch, but this isn't possible without committing to AR height optics. Is it "worth it" to go AR height? I am using an AK100 style stock from KVAR. I'm curious if what y'all think, since so many of you seem to be using AR height optics.

I mounted my PERST on top of my 105. No backup sites and my ACOG on top. ACOG and PERST can be removed easily if need be, I'd not sweat it.

Zastava, MI rail, Silencerco Omega, KNS piston installed. Freaking love this set up. Everyone said it would be difficult,  and that baffle strikes were a concern.  Everything went together well. Only complaint is that it's a little gassy to the face, but I haven't got the piston tuned yet either. If I can get a sweet spot I'll be stoked big time. And adding NV IR light/Lazer capability.

TA-33  TA-31 with RMR. I'll get my pic of it over to the hosting website and get it uploaded here.

No RMR on in this pic. Credit for the suppressor goes to TX-Zen.

Cheek weld is overrated IMO and with even a modest amount of trigger time behind an AK a chin weld is workable. If you shoot passive with an AR you tend to get a chin weld anyway, and when I started shooting passive with ARs I realized once again I'm pretty happy I've been used to chin welds and AKs all these years

I use ACOGs on several of my AKs with a chin weld, ACOGs can and do work great
