I have the possibility of picking up a brand new in box 106FR. The catch is it is a ban state compliant model. I am just trying to figure out what I would be getting into with this. For starters it looks like there’s a cap over the muzzle threads. Is it just as simple as removing a weld and then being able to attach a muzzle device or is there more to it? The second thing is the stock. It has a folding stock, but the trunnion is not the one for a folder. What are my options if I wanted a different stock? Lastly what would be a fair market price for a gun like this? TIA

If you are looking at converting it back, it’s doable, but it’s going to need to go to an AK smith.

At the very least, you will need the below parts for the folder to work.

Both of the above parts will require holes cut into the receiver.

I have no idea how they pinned the stock or the front site base.

If you need a new front site base, the below link is correct.

Don't you tell me about galaxies! I walk them in the timeline.

I purchased a ban state model slr105. I debated going for the ak74 or ak105 type and ended up with the 105 style. I sent it off to two river arms and had a gas block/front sight combo put on, barrel chopped and pin/welded brake to it. Shoots outstanding and just waiting on the form 1 to come back to put a normal size muzzle device on. I think they even sighted it In because this weekend it was hitting great and I didn’t need to touch the sights. Put Zenitco handguard and  b-33 on last night, this rifle rocks.
