So what might a PKM cost these days? Could only find one for sale and it was a semiauto but no price listed on it. I am going to assume that the above pics are of full autos and not semi's?

much lower profile than the last scope rail I saw. I note in SAR that B&T is making one. Anyone had a chance to see it? How does this Arm Dyn one mount" Does it need the rear sight? I bought a PKT cover from Apex to put a rail on, but if someone else makes one better there is no point in me re-inventing the wheel.

Great looking PKMs everybody, I am pretty new to them though and have a couple of questions. First off I noticed that some of them have what appears to be a buffer tube going through the skeletonized buttstock. Is this a buffer tube or some type of stiffener and is this a easy way to tell the country of origin or whether one is full or semi-auto? Second I noticed that there are two types of flash suppressors, one being a short cone shaped with some holes in it and the other being a long straight type with long slots cut into it? Please educate me one the differences as I am thinking about trading in some stuff to obtain one. Thanks in advance for the help!

The one with the tube running through the buttstock is the semi-auto version sold by Marcolmar Firearms. Without the tube through the buttstock will be the original or full-auto versions.
You'll essentially find three general styles of the PK/PKM flash hider - the longer, thicker one with the slots (for the PK); the longer, thinner one with the slots (the earlier style for the PKM); and the shorter, slotted one (the later style for the PKM). |

Finished my two rails.
On the one, I used the B&T with a red dot, so I don't have to worry about eye relief. Did very well out to 500m. It does render the carry handle inoperable - or rather it converts it from a "carry handle" to an "aggressive knuckle-chiseler." I gave up on the PKT rail shown above. Instead I took a weaver base for a savage 110 and riveted it to the top cover, then slid a modified AR-15 rail riser from Young Manufacturing over it. Two screws on the front and middle, and set screw in the slot of the weaver base. Much simpler than the previous design. Mounts the ELCAN far enough back that I can see through it. The B&T doesn't leave enough eye relief.

Orginally
 At the range  After I added a picatinny rail to a spare feed tray cover  Gun painted with ELCAN M145 machine gun optic mounted  With shortened spare barrel   With Zeiss Orion 80 night vision device mounted (West German surplus GEN I triple tube cascade NVD)  The Orion has a built-in STANAG mount so I used an ARMS (spit!) STANAG to picatinny adapter. |

I just refinished the stocks on the guns in guns in Atomicferret's pic. And added an optic. I am working on a side folder stock adapter then finding a stock that works on a left side folder with the ejection port and all. Cut down an old bbl to just before the gas block and you have an entry gun!

Nice photos, everyone.
Let me ask, who can chop down a PKM barrel for me and who, besides ArmaDynamic, makes a PKM optic mount?

Mine fits fine.
I still don't have a efficient technique to reinstall the feed tray cover spring, but that's the only difficulty I had with either of mine. I used a modified PKT feedtray cover on my other one, just to see if I could make a longer one. |

I'd like to know what ODA's alleged fitting problems are, as it fits my Hungarians just fine.
I made my own from a PKT cover, because the B&T was too far forward to get good eye-relief with my Elcan. So I just keep the B&T on one gun with an aimpoint and my home-made on the other.

You did buy one of those didn't you? I thought there was problems with those fitting on the PKM's? Is my memory whack? |

So I just keep the B&T on one gun with an aimpoint and my home-made on the other. http://www.arizonaresponsesystems.com/wp/ak/pkmrail-08.jpg Same thing I did (fabrication-wise) and for the same reason (length of rail). Now as to the B&T issues. The B&T mount I got from Keisler Defense was basically a rail with "U" bracket that used the pivot pin at the front of the top cover to secure it and then the piece at the end of the rail hooked under the rear sight. A set screw tensioned it. B&T's page - http://www.bt-ag.ch/en/manufacturing/mountingsystems/optical_sight_mounts.php?pid=678 Their picture (they call it the "Russian version").  Keisler's picture (they no longer sell it).  The issue I had was that the "bump" at the front of my top cover (the rise as it goes from the pivot pin back) was angled too stteply for the rear of the mount to slide under the rear signt base - it was like a lever with too high a fulcrum. So, if I just slid it on from front to rear and secured the rear of the mount, the front holes on the mount didn't line up with the pin for the top cover (off by nearly 3/8 of an inch) and the mount was a significant angle above the horizontal. I followed the instructions repeatedly, step by step and even had other people try it (one was a gunsmith that works for the FBI who got so frustrated he was going to fabricate a new front bracket and the others were two different SF weapons sergeants who had used them on their PKMs in AFG). The funny thing is it fit fine when I dry fit it to the spare (Polish?) top cover I bought from Apex (which has no rear sight base - probably a PKT cover - so it wouldn't have worked on that one anyway). I quit messing with it when I realized that it was fine for a RDS, but useless for an M145 MGO (and for that matter, it wouldn't work with my Orion NVD) for the same reason you fabricated one. The ArmaDynamics mount is sweet and sexy, but very expensive (niche mount, niche market). If they had been available after my frustrating experience with the B&T, I might have bought one even at $500. But they weren't, so I bought a top cover from Apex and fabricated my own for ¼ the price. |
