Greeting guys and perhapses gals.

I thought I'd venture over to this side of the board as I've got an itch to build one or two aks. I'm looking to build a pistol much like Atlantic sells and maybe a polish underfolder. I see that cope's has the polish underfolder, but I can't seem to locate a pistol kit. Are there any available?

I've never built from a kit before and will probably have a buddy looking over the shoulder, but what do I need to watch out for? Are the Tapco receiver flats decent. Like I said this has probably been discussed so many times over here, but I don't visit very often to this side.

Thanks a head of time guys......

Don't know of any "pistol kits". Most people
just use a rifle kit and modify it. Alot of people
start with a Romy since they are cheap ...

Oddly enough, there's one in the EE right now:

No, it's not mine, and I don't know the seller.

or if money is not a big deal (to me its is thats why im still waiting) you can look for a demilled M92 (not virgin unless your prepaired for more work) or ONYX or AMD 65 and assemble with modded or new "pistol" rear trunion.

Thanks guys......

Money is an issue for me right now. I've just had an itch to finally build one. I saw one at a fun show this past weekend and I started drooling. They wanted $750 for it..... Ouch!!

I've been out of work for the past 9 months so money is tight. I have an Americanized Mak for my only AK. I've got several ARs and just need to do some balancing.

What I really want is an AK pistol that shoots 7.62 x 54.

I'm going for fireball factor.

I'm sure I'll have tons more questions for you guys. I'd get that kit in the EE if I had the cash available at this moment. I hope the kits are available when I get the $$.
