I'm going to do a running thread on the life of my draco.
My goal is ultimately a SBR very similar to Atxtj's. In fact his is what finally made me give up on trying to find a SLR-107cr and go with the Draco. Current Status as of 1/17/2014 - everything is complete - form 1 approved today

I like the plan. Looking forward to seeing this play out! ETA: should add a flash light and mount also. I have a feeling this will be your go to gun when it's done. good call on the light I have a spare TLR-1 that I can toss on it. as to the "go-to".... you maybe right, but I'm also submitting a form 1 for one of my lowers to have a 11.5" AR too. Figure load up the trust now before any revisions are made to the process. We shall see

Century charged my card..... So per them it means it should ship today.
Being I had to pay for next day air, should have it tomorrow or Wednesday ETA: it will be delivered tomorrow by 3! I hope I can step out of the office early enough to swing by my FFL and get it before he closes shop. |

Quoted:
Your rights.... DENIED. How did you order the draco direct from century? Im going to do this. Called century asked if I could order. Gave them my FFL info. Century then called them to see if they would approve the transfer/pricing. My ffl said yes. Century called me back and got my cc info. Took about 1 week to ship. |

mocked it up to get a visual feel for where this is going.
- stock is not drilled, tapped, or attached - still waiting on my black K-VAR handguard Not sure how I feel about the balance with the ultimak, but I've got plenty of time to decide. 
but in the end..... I am so ready for my stamp ETA: went with the magpul PG as I want somewhere to store a folded up form 1 (scaled down of course) |

Quoted:
mag hold bro! A properly shortened dong though should work. I usually do the mag hold. However, this little fellow is going to be a pig to shoot, so I figure the VFG would work .... and keep it romanian. Now the black magpul grip has to go, as it won't match....I'm going to order an FDE one and rit dye it dark brown.... off to order ! |

Quoted:
Subscribed! I was just thinking of doing this same sort of thing! If you don't mind, how much is century charging right now? $599.87 + FedEx next day air shipping to your location - more than I really wanted to pay......but its still the cheapest means into a SBR AK |

Well, if you guys have seen my AR threads, I tend to have an addiction to putting krylon on my rifles.
I've had several mental battles regarding my SAR-1 and since it wears nice wood, it will never get camo'd. Now, since this will not fit into any sort of accurate representation of an issued rifle and will be a mutt, I think that some Krylon might just look good on this. Here is my most recent job and what I would apply to this project.

DSC_0520 by The Dorsal Fin, on Flickr This is rifle is also being form 1'd and will have an 11.5" barrel under the 11" rail. So I'd have matching camo "primaries". thoughts? |

What made you decide to get a draco over the yugo krinks? Me,personally, I don't like the yugos. I bought a draco when they were 369. - chrome lined barrel, if I'm spending the money and time to SBR it, its going to have a chrome lined barrel - ability to use standard AK hand guards - 90 degree rear trunion - I like the look of the draco better Now If I could get a SLR-107UR for the same price, well....I would have gone that route. But between the Draco and M92, I prefer the draco. |
