I am thinking of puchasing a Vector Arms Underfolder. I would like some input on these rifles, stroies, and pics if possible.
Thanks,

Welcome to the boards. We often discuss these rifles. A quick search will discover what you need.

I went with a Vector underfolder for my first AK . I like it quite a bit , but shooting with folding stock took a little getting used to .

I've had it for a year or so got about 800-1K Rds thru it .

Not one stoppage , no misfires ,  eats anything as far as ammo goes . I slowed way down on shootting it w/ the ammo "shortage" .

My ONLY compliant would be that the forearm is small , so I burn myself nearly everytime . I'd buy another .

The Vector I own, does not have receiver step-down rails.
To be honest, I would prefer these step-downs.
But then, there could be more involved that I'm not aware of, like the thickness of sheet metal. Maybe someone will clarify this point, we have plenty of builders on this forum.

I have a Vector Underfolder and love it. Can`t wait to (someday) get their AMD-65.

Ok, I have found a site where I can get an Polish underfolder for 549$, and here of Arfcom I found Vector underfolders for 559$ both are good looking rifles. I can not decide which is the better deal... I like the feedback on Vectors. Any advice? The only noticable difference is the Polish is blued and the Vector is parked. I think the Vectors are built on polish kits, but I am pretty lost. Ty for the help,

Well I cant seem to get ahold of AA, so I think I may go with a century arms Yugo M70 I found on EE. I like the looks of it and it is posted as unfired. I dont like that the Yugos arent chrome lined. I also dont like the way the vector underfolders I looked at are parked... I am having a really hard time picking and Ak.

The Yugo I found is 450$ with 2 mags, a bayo, and a mag pouch, The Vector is 559$ with 1 mag, and I am open to suggestions. My budget is 600$.


Well just bid on an Polish PKMS. I found it for 500$. It says that it is built on a Eubanks reciever, and the gun looks excelent. Can not wait to shoot it, and sit in my Lazy-Boy and rub on it while watching recorded tapes of tour of duty.

Anyone know anything on these Eubanks recievers?

Ewbanks = Joeken

IIRC, the "ken" in Joeken = Ken Ewbanks.

Ok, I have read a lot on how Eubanks lowers by JoeKen are junk and so on. I got a little worried and did a little research, and what i found is rather comforting. Here is a link if you are interested.
