Non-AR SBR pic thread! (Page 1 of 46)

| We all love the AR15 and its variants or else we wouldn't be here. But, some of us also have other firearm loves. I suggest a tacked picture thread for non-AR SBRs so one doesn't need to wade through 50+ pages of countless AR15s just to hopefully find that one picture of a gun that might resemble the project they want to undertake. You know, guns such as Krinks, Sterlings, HKs, Tommy Guns, etc. |

Sig 556 converted to 552 by Frank Hatten at AMA using a new 552-2 parts kit. The only remaining US manufactured items are the receiver and barrel, both of which were mod'd to 552 specs. Frank welded on a Swiss steel optics rail that came from a demilled 552 receiver. I was also fortunate to pick up a Swiss Arms 552 rail from Larry Gaglio. This is a product improved version of the B&T rail, in that it is cut from a solid piece of billet aluminum. Larry told me that the B&T rails start life as castings. Not that it really matters structurally, but it is a nice addition. The buttstock is the Swiss-made 553 type folding and collapsing stock. This came on one of the early produced 556 Classic rifles.
Some pics of the receiver mods:

Its a little more tricky than an AR but is very possible at home. There are 2 ways to get the barrel:
1) Get the standard (10.3") barrel from CMMG here 2) Send your barrel to be cut and threaded. I used Hi Desert Dog in AZ. They did an awesome job and are great guys. Instructions for removal of your barrel are here (w/pics) I actually cut the barrel off about halfway down the exposed part with a diamond saw instead of drilling. Either one works just fine |
I posted this thread in anticipation of receiving my first SBR stamp. I just realized that I have failed to post a pic within my own thread. 
But now that the stamp has arrived...... 
Future upgrades will be a real Aimpoint and a proper paddle mag-release. |

I'm going to send out my Form 1 soon to SBR my PS90 so I'll have something like a previous poster here. But this will do me for now...

Arsenal SLR-107UR 7.62x39 Krink, Bulgarian triangle folding stock, John Willis Original SOE bungee sling (MASH hook adapter), Tapco G2 trigger, K-Var US plum furniture, Stormwerkz rear sight rail, custom modified Ultimak gas tube rail (work done by Rifle Dynamics in Las Vegas, NV), Bulgarian flash hider.
I also had Rifle Dynamics refinish the entire rifle with Norrell's Moly Resin over Parkerization at the same time that they cut the barrel down, since the factory Arsenal finish is supposed to be so bad. Regarding the custom Ultimak rail, it should be noted that Ultimak now offers a production version of the gas tube rail for the Bulgarian Krinkov. When I sent my gun off to be worked on however, they did not. Regardless, mine is rock solid and I couldn't be happier. Turns out I didn't need the Stormwerkz rail after all.
