Oh you got another one in the pic thread, it's what made me want a working man's 74

This pic made me really want to get back into 5.45, I even got the same sling

My M64.  Rifle is 40 years old and is all original (minus the FCG and muzzle nut for compliance purposes), including the factory bluing and receiver (re-weld build).  I love the wear and tear on this rifle and the fact that any I might add will only add to it's charm.

wow, I lold for about a minute with that.  I am glad you saved it when you did, I recently went through and dumped a large # of pics that were chewing up my bandwith in one account, I guess some of those were more popular than I figured.

For what its worth, its a great sling - I am about to put a traditional sling on and play with that (I constantly change things) and added a chunk of rail to the rt side and mounted the light there, rather than off the barrel.  I also welded a bent washer on the saftey so it can be opperated with my strong side index finger.

Thanks for the entertainment.

Russian electrical tape is usually blue. Mags are marked this way, taped together this way, and blue just happens to be the color.

I do it for fun and to make it kinda Russian in appearance.

My one and only AKM... in practical/tactical trim.

Link Posted: 2/21/2010 12:49:22 PM EDT
[#13]
I used to run the AK slung like an AR and would adjust based on gear and length needed.  I switched to a traditional sling becuase I ended up using that 2 point on my shotgun and have started running the sling around my neck only.  I also want to take a shot at modding a traditional sling to quick adjust...

I added a length of rail from walmart for 6$ - I drilled through the wood and anchored the nuts with epoxy.  I used a pair of 6$ scope rings and a 15$ brinkman maxfire with a 10$ deal extreme drop in bulb.  I was using a barrel clamp holder, but it began to move with use.  People scoff at my 40$ light setup, but I have been using the same setup on a different shotgun and rifle for a while now.

The blue tape "for me" just happens to coincide with what most Russians use for their 5.45s.  You notice that my mags are numbered.  Any magazine system I run is colour coded.  The only magazines that do not have tape are the 55gn AR 15 mags, becuase that is my bread and butter.  All my pistol mags are numbered in either red numbers for 9mm (all glock 17 mags) or Gold (all glock 21 mags)  The 5.45 mags just ended up being blue.  I have painted all my cases of ammo blue with spray paint and have all of my 50 cal cans colour coded and labeled.  The main reason is so that anyone (cough wife cough)  who looks at my shit can make a semi logical conclusion about what is in the cans and go from there.  You will also notice that there is blue tape on the rifle some where to assist in showing what rifle takes which magazines....

I will take another updated pic here in a minute since I have been talking and not showing pics.....

There is roughly 3/8" up/down play and 3/16" play side to side, both measured from the end (butt) of the stock.  I could probably get some of that play out of it, but haven't messed with it.  The folding mechanism itself still functions very well.

They are brinkmans, but I have added deal extreme drop in leds to give me 100+ lumens and 1-2 hr run time with about 60-80 yd throw....

Yes it came like that from the factory.  The cut out is there but not the mount the sling is just screwed to the stock. I plan on getting a mount for it but this works just fine.





Thanks for all the compliments guys.

Wow your 74 MUST have the same shitty finish as my Krink. It looks exactly the same and is worn out in the SAME spots. I can literally pick that shit off with my finger nail sometimes. Who built it?

Just got it. Range report soon.  The reverse grip is on the same plane as the rear grip, and the stock is long enough for a giant.

ChirpinSquirrel What kind of stock do you have on your AK?

Here are a couple of mine. All sporting some good ol rustolem finish jobs and I'm willing to take them out rain, snow or shine.

Top one is my trunk gun and has about $220 invested it.

This was right after it got built and refinished. Its seen plenty of use since. It was built to be a cheap NFA gun total after the stamp was just under $550. She has been broken in

The top one is my latest yes it has a rail but I'm not worried about messing it up. This thing is a solid shooter and has been hitting the range about once a week since I got my stamp. It's fast handling and has little recoil. I've been using it so much I haven't taken the time to refinish it.

I just have an ACE folder 9.5" without the rubber on the end. I got it wrapped in paracord so my face doesn't freeze when I'm shouldering it in this coldness.

Pimpin guns by the way
