I am looking to modify my SA85, I want to install the new AK-142B Bulgarian Front Sight Block & Gas Chamber combination, but I don't know which one to get. is the KR-008B KRINKOV FRONT SIGHT Block Assy or the AK-142B Bulgarian Front Sight Block & Gas Chamber combination www.k-varcorp.com/frontsightblock.html I plan on cutting off the front flash hider thread, but I like to cut the barrel to 14.5 and install a AK74 style muzzle brake on it. what is the thread pitch on the brake and where can I find a true replica of the brake?? I am looking to install the UltiMAK top cover so I can add my Trijicon Reflex tot he gun also. Last question, where can I find the steel FSE fixed Krinkov buttstock?? Is any of the conversion I am doing possible and will there be any conflicts?? Any and all help is greatly appreicated. |

if you are doing up a pmds, my advice is as follows: by the genuine commie left side folding triangular buttstock. even if just doing up an sbr or faux-sbr, the commie stock is more authentic and better looking than the krink fixed stock from fse. k-var is now selling complete russian ak-103, 104 and 105 front ends for $320-330. although a tad pricey, the front end swap will save you time and money. your original plan sounds good to go, also. like wes said, rpb has the fse parts and ak-103/ak-usa has the gas block/sight block combo (ala ak-103/104/105 series). if reworking the rifle, this is an ideal time to add a com-bloc optic mounting rail. imo, it's a much better option than the ultimak. |

Thanks very much for your advise. I will looking the options. Two more question, if i got the 103 option, isn't that in the 5.45?? a caliber change will involved my bolt carrier also?? Ultimax rail is not a good option because?? I have a spare Reflex, that is why i was thinking the Ultimax rail. Again, thanks Bob, and Wes for the awesome replies. |
If you intend to keep this rifle 7.62x39 then you need the AK-104. AK-103 is a 7.62x39 AK that looks exactly like an AK-74 except for the caliber. The AK-102, 104 and 105 are the shorter models. AK-102 = 5.56mm AK-104 = 7.62mm AK-105 = 5.45mm |
