Chinks, thats kinda harsh. You don't actually think white people are the only people that read this do you. How about a little respect for the other races here. Personally I wouldnt pay that when I've seen a couple of those complete guns bought for 350-500 this year.

It wont swell, warp or rot in harsh conditions of Asia like wood might...isnt that why some of our guns in vietnam in the beginning had problems? Probably light and cheaper to mold plastic than shape and finish wood. Most likely done for mass production, not looks

I purchased two of those red sidefolder kits from RPB back in 1995. One to my brother and one for me. I sent a MAK-90 to RPB in 1995 and they shortened up the barrel, pulled the gasblock back, and put a custom Krinkov muzzle break on it to make it 16.5 inches. It was really nice and I let it go sometime in 2001. My brother let his MAK-90 go with the red sidefolder kit sometime in 1997 to a friend of mine. I checked with him last night and he still won't get off of it. Here is an early pic and you can see the red sidefolder with the shortened barrel:  Johno knew how bad I wanted a red sidefolder again and he let me buy him out and take over his "Red China" project at InRange. So sometime in the spring of next year, watch for Project Red China...My sincerest thanks to you Johno. Thanks for posting the pic from ARS because it's exactly what it will look like!!  |
Hell,the kit is elusive and so is this thread!I came dragging in from work this morning and saw it in AK General Discussion,I figured I'd respond after a little sleep and then I could'nt find it!  No problem KF,I had been accumulating the parts for this project for well over a year,By the time I had it ready to start on,I also had several other kit projects going and I kinda lost my drive on this one.I'm still excited to see it completed,keep us posted!
