Nice purchase, but where's the pic...???
The SBR-ready milled Krink is definitely are rare bird in the SA M-7 SF series of rifles. Yes, you should SBR it, and No shooting it will not affect the value much, if at all. I've been hoping they would release one with a Bulgarian-made receiver. But so far, all we've seen is a pistol. |

Thanks for the info. Sounds like I shouldn't worry about shooting it then. I ordered a case from Midway over the weekeend. I'm on travel right now but I'm sure I can get some pics up this wekeend.

It is a collector's gun for the moment. If and when a 16" Bulgarian receiver SFK is released, the value will plummet just what happened with the SAM7SF's release to the SA M-7 SF's value.
IMO it's the ideal AK for blasting at the range. Great fun and with the booster, which is basically a single baffle suppressor that does nothing to the noise but does a great job suppressing the concussive, sinus passage clearing blast at the muzzle, there's not too much more flash or noise than you get out of a 16" AK. There are way too few pictures of an original SA M-7 SFK floating around. I'll set the bar really low for pics in this thread, here's a cell phone shot of my SAR-M4SF (Bulgarian receiver SA M-7 SFK) clone build: http://i.imgur.com/1UGjHqPl.jpg |

I'll seeing the rivet holes on the back of the receiver, I'll assume that you're gutting a SAM7SF rifle and SAM7K pistol to create a milled Krink............

I have a SAM7K pistol pending SBR status right now -- eForm 1 should be back in the next week or so. Already engraved and currently at a 'smith being D&T'd for the Stormwerkz hinge and Manticore triangle stock. I don't think I have anticipated an SBR this furiously since my very first one. REALLY looking forward to this one.  |

Yeah.....I already have a 107UR Krink, but a milled Krink is the Holy Grail of 7.62 Krinks to me. I just really prefer it be the correct right-side folding set up.

The SW hinge can be mounted to fold either direction. That said, it still won't be "correct" and I won't lose any sleep over that because I bought/registered it to shoot, not to look like something specific made and sold/issued elsewhere. I don't have any mechanical abilities to speak of, so I thought a pistol was my best choice for a starting point for the SBR. IOW, it may look "Krink-ish" when I'm done, but it won't be a Krink or pass for one and I knew that going in. |

Rivets would have been easier to remove. I didn't do the work removing them, but from what I was told those two pins did not come out easy. |

Yeah, I must admit that I've "thought" of doing the same project myself. Just trying to hold out a little longer to see if they offer a 16" milled Krink rifle. Good luck with your project. |

Sorry for some of the fuzzy pics. They looked better on my phone than when I moved them to my computer.
