Hello all , Im a confirmed AR type , and will probably add an AK 47 type rifle ( MUST take CHEAP thiry rd military type mags.) ,  and would like to know which models are worth buying or not  . I've 'heard' that the less expensive verstions wear rapidy (1Krds)and tend to start doubling ....? I dont want anything too special but would like a Flash Hider and Bayo lug maybe an underfolder too . AIM has some that come with Bayo and stuff for @$380 . (Bulgies i think , not under folders) are they good ? ,Im coming to think there are export quality vertions and then good ones....i know whats new ? , any advise appericiated . ive owned two sks's and a mini thirty (so the pressed vs. srcewed barral thing is the kind of info i want regaurding AKs) and i am wondering about  AKs and do like the .7 62x39 rd . and may end up buying a realy nice sks if nothing else. Thanks RL

Maybe you should just stick to AR's and leave the crappy Comblock stuff to dummies like me .  Just kidding, but keep your hands off of my Krink!

I dont want your 'Krink' . But of all " the crappy comblock stuff " the Krink is pretty cool , ive been looking at this site : http://www.autochart.com/zastavaM92.htm  They offer excellent Condition Zastava M92 "Krinkov" Parts Kit in 7.62x39mm for $400 + then have a link to Ohio recievers for a 60buck reciever ....SO how does one legaly go about biulding one (10" barrel and "full auto") ?  is it the same 200 dollar tax route ?  Short of a 1928 A-1 Thomson this "crappy comblock ..."  thing is about the only full auto that excites me ...other than certian General electric (non crappy comblok) mini guns RL

Sorry bro, you can build a short barreled rifle if you take all the right steps and pay the $200 tax stamp, as long as in the end the ATF gives you the nod. But they are not gonna let you build it full auto with out a 10 year vacation in club fed. No new machineguns for private citizens period. Although I think if you were to track down a registered full auto AK and managed to aquire it, you can have it converted to a krink IIRC. That would probably cost oh...$15,000 after all is said and done.

Thanks Tiapan It was the reciever date thing that had me wondering . what about using a 16"AK barrel ? OR inventing some sort of muzzle brake to get the 10er to 16 (pinned .sweated. staked . spotwelded, gluded and ducktaped on of course :) ? Tiapan , let me ask you something B4 I got on this Krink thing all I really wanted was a good example of a semi auto AK type rifle ,(underfolder if poss. ) do you have any suggestions ? I been surfing the AK section and the differant model designations are absolutly baffling to me , i lost track after MAK 90 and AK 74 , and while I want one , i dont think im going to wade through the learning cure of figuring out , saigas , single stack , single stacks that have been converted to double stacks , hungarian / bulgarian parts sets , 'low quality export models' , Blah , Blah . I just want a resonable example of a well made (if a little sloppy and poorly finished , I know sloppy is a good thing) AK Type rifle with bayo lug and slant brake , I know Norinco would be a good find (god whod have thought !) but im more interested in what i could order off the net , and dealed locs. if poss. I not trying to unload my homework on you , but if you know off the top of your head . the last Ak types i saw in a shop (newly made  $380 kind ) looked...ok , but the markings on the reciever right side just above mag. well were so poorly done as to be alarming ..to me . No kidding , Ive seen a totaly hand made SMLE rifle from the Kyber Pass area that was marked better than that , and some of those letters were backward ! At least with my 1896 producded Mosin Nagant it's hard to tell whats backward anyway ! The Zsars Crown says it all to me , but then he lost it and finns were kind enough to add 'SA' and they stamped out the Arshins and added Meters , and counter bored , but the commies got it back and replaced the originl stock with a TULA star marked stock of the correct early style . Arshins (28 to inch) made more sense than some one marking a rifle like ive seen .  Thanks R L  , Taipan sorry i misspelled your name :(

Buy a Arsenal AK pistol, everything is Krink without a buttstock.  Who would actually use the buttstock anyways?

Thats a good idea ,  I didnt relize it was just a Krink w/o folder . Also I've been educated Its gonna be $200 tax for SBR and full auto only in club Fed.  10 years .  so is the folder worth 200 and a long drawn out process ? Thanks R L

I shopped around before I got my krink and i am telling you as an end user and a person who is pretty picky about quality and you need to call Mike at Ohio rapid Fire.  I have put about 2K rounds through my krink, its accuracy makes AR guys freak out,  the rifle arrives looking mint with no machine marks, customer service is exceptional ( Mike said he would remove my fake suppressor for free when my SBR paperwork arrives), the trigger is so amazing that the guys with custom trigger jobs just salivate :), anyway... it was money well spent with them.   i have seen others and I just think you would do well to check em out.

I am gonna burn up a case of Barnaul and some wolf tommorrow and I am hoping to get a video up to show the incredible trigger speed that this baby can put out.

Good luck in you Krink search... it is well worth it.

Mike removed my fake suppressor free too.  And engraved it.  ORF can't be beat.  I dont' have any after pics, but I have a before.  I went with the bulgarian 4 piece FS instead of the cone hider.  Talk to ORF if you want a good krink.

If you're talking about Arsenal as in Global Trades AK pistols.there is nothing Krinkov about them. Real Krinks start at over a $1000. Not bad for crappy com/bloc junk.

You could always buy a reciever in the white and a Krinkov kit along with a few tapes/books; and piece it together yourself.  Ill probably end up doing that a couple times in the next 4 years, Im stocking up on AR/AK recievers as we speak.

ok, kinda confused.

The kit listed above for 400, is legal even if you buy the ohio ordinance receiver, just not legal to have a stock on it without an SBR license?

The one above has a folding stock.  If it was missing both a buttstock and a foregrip it could be classified as a pistol, but with the buttstock gone and a foregrip it would have to be registered as a NFA item.

The Krink above is legal because it has the fake can on it to bring the barrel out to the legal16". Take the can off and it would require a SBR license. If it was built first without the stock and foregrip it would be a legal pistol.

Im speaking to Wellco Arms about a Krink SBR build as we speak, I bought one his short barreled 47 pistols, and should have it next week, once I inspect it, Im probably going to do the Krink immediately thereafter.

I just might add a real suppressor purchase at the same time, and do all the paperwork with the Policia at once.

Im also considering a legal suppressor for a 22 caliber application as well.  22 in rimfire that is....
