I just ordered this from Atlantic and wondering what furniture works? I’m new to AK’s and it seems the md63 with dong lower handguard maybe? Thanks

Also what thread pitch would the barrel be? I like the AL74 style brake.

Chances are you will need US-made furniture and maybe even US-made mags.

Lol! 922r police are here!



Throw the shit you want on it. Nobody actually cares about 922r. Enjoy your rifle.


Barrel threads are probably the standard M14x1LH.

I wouldnt sweat 922 either.  As stated, us receiver and barrel.  Trigger counts as three.  One more could be muzzle device or pistol grip

Thanks for the replies, I’m aware of 922r. Plan is ALG trigger, might do a keymo brake since I have a Sandman-S. I like the look of the 74 brake. I just don’t want the dong lower forend lol

It is a US barrel and a Morrisey receiver.

OP,

I bought the same one so as far as 922r compliance all you need is to switch out the barrel nut, which sounds like you are already doing. FCG is US. So you can put all foreign parts, including mag, on this and you are fine.

I didn’t want the dong either. Just about any furniture, except Yugo, will fit. I can’t remember but last week one dealer had surplus palmswell handguards. Sold out though. AOA has the Romanian buttstocks. But I am going to guess you probably want the Nato length. As far as the handguards, AOA has the new WBP sets that will work with a little fitting. I know because that’s what I am using for now.

Oh the muzzle thread 14/1 left hand.

So any imported AK kit that is assembled in the US with a US receiver and barrel?

No. Imported AKs aren't built on US receivers. Nor do they have US barrels. Your example was a kit without a receiver and barrel. It used to be a fully functional rifle with a Romanian made receiver and barrel. They demill the rifle and make it a non functioning gun. Once the kit arrives here someone has to rebuild it into a rifle. As long as the rifle is built on US soil then 922r isn't applicable. We use US receivers cause to my knowledge we can't buy receivers from other countries. Imported AKs come into the country as functioning rifles made on that country's receiver. Since it was Imported as a rifle and not a kit it's subject to 922r. Whoever imports the rifle is responsible for putting the compliance parts on it

Edit: I read your response incorrectly. You are correct. I missed the word "kit"

Wrong.  Parts count still applies (if you want to keep ATF happy, that is another debate).  

Where you built it means nothing, where the parts were made does.

Which is why the receiver is on the list that ATF publishes.

Also totally wrong as far as how it works.


If you don’t know a correct answer, maybe don’t post your wild guesses.  922 is stupid, but posting bad info and making someone think they are good in ATF’s eyes when they would not be is not actually helpful for anyone.

Exactly. Us individual gun owners are not manufacturing anything! We’re simply modifying a gun we bought. 922R should not matter.  And I personally don’t worry one bit about it. I I bought gun from a manufacturer or dealer it was in legal configuration. How I choose to dress it with furniture or muzzle break, trigger group should not matter. And I’d wager NO ONE has EVER been charged with this either.

Unless they were add on charges after the fact
