I finally got my new Npap underfolder today and really like it. Hope to take it to the range tomorrow. Mags fit nice and tight. The safety lever is a bit tight, not sure if just some lube and working it will loosen it up or if it needs a slight bend to it. I am very impressed with the look and feel of the gun. Just need a simple sling, a  few more mags, and some free time...

Congrats on the NPAP. I have been without an AK for a few years now and have the bug for one and I am leaning toward the NPAP because I want an economical underfolder to keep in the truck. Can't wait to hear your range report.

Buying one of the underfolders in the next month. Super pumped, all the reviews have been good. Don't care if I even like the folder, I love the look of these rifles

That's pretty much where I'm at.  I own 3 underfolders and am not particularly fond of shooting an underfolder in the first place.  They're just too cool, gotta have at least one based on that alone.



 

To relieve some of the tension with the safety selector, do NOT bend anything.  Here's what I did based on someone else's suggestion.

Cleaned the whole gun before taking it out and things loosened up nicely including the bolt, safety, and folding stock. Only burned 30 rounds out of tapco and pmags and worked great. I do think I will try a bit of sand paper on the safety portion with the little knob. I wrapped a piece of paracord on the stock and it wasn't too bad. I forgot my ears so I didn't want to shoot too much. Already looking forward to my next ak purchase with a fixed stock...

I'd suggest getting a surplus Yugo sling for the NPAP DF.  Using it as a shooting aide makes the stock feel even more comfortable.

Yes, certainly in need of a sling and more ammo.

I couldnt pass these up, so I got one a few days ago.  Boy, they are nice and tight.  I had heard reports of century leaving metal filings inside the gas tube and receiver etc, but mine was pretty clean.  These are a bargain right now at around $550 or so...maybe need to get another...must resist temptation.  I am still kicking myself for not getting an AB2 underfolder when they first started showing up at AIM Surplus at about the same price or lower.  I think they M70 I had a few years back I paid $460 for.  NEVER sell an AK, you will regret it later...
