THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT  I've been lurking a while and finally joined and want to thank you all for all I've learned so far. I bought a Draco a while back with the intention of going the form 1 route and throwing a stock on but because I'm .mil I won't always be in SBR friendly territory. I've settled on converting it to a full length carbine and was looking into blind pinning one of these..
http://www.tapco.com/products/ak/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=238 to one of these http://aa-ok.com/2-inch-ak-barrel-extension.html and pinning those to the barrel. The 11.5" draco plus the 2" extention plus the 2.81" tapco break should put me over 16" but I'm worried about falling short due to the threads interlocking. Any one here with experience with either of these products or know where I can get my hands on a 3" extention? |

Why not save yourslf a headache and just sell the draco and buy a ak rifle rather han adding to the draco to make it a rifle?

This Aggressive enough for ya? Ace side folder and side folder adapter Installed by drilling and tapping 2) 10-32 holes. I used an AR XM177 copy f/hider that is correct LH metric threads. Unfortunately where i got it from has slipped what little mind i have left.

Do you mind if I ask how you attached it, it looks like you pinned it underneath but there is also a little discoloration which makes me think silver solder.

 So now, if I pin and tack an extended break on my draco, put my UF stock thats at my brothers house on it, it turns it into a rifle. Do I have to do any paperwork to do this? Or is it just do it and be done? Just thinking of it as an option till I get the cash together to sbr it. $40 now is a lot easier to come up with. |

Check out CNC Warrior. They have everything you need. Even a draco specific adapter that allows you to put a extended Bulgarian 4 piece(which they sell) on it thus bringing it to legal length. They are good people as I've bought a ton from them.

 That bulgarian break is beautiful. Here come the dumb questions; 1. so would I attach the outer body to the adapter and the adapter to the barrel? 2. is the cone insert removeable for cleaning?

Don't settle, I'm active duty and I've got 9 NFA items and more on the way. At most you'll have to lock the stuff up for a few years while you're in enemy territory. Meanwhile, go ahead and enjoy it while you can.

You can SBR and then pin an extension on if you have to move, and remove it later when legal.
