Pirate has a great concept using a forum on the thier website to follow your build along the way and to keep you informed on its progress. I saw a 16" barrel gun he was building w/o the tripod attached. Compact and had a nice balance to it. The rails and the M-60 FH on the Wise-Lite give the RPD a nice evil look.

I just sent this to Jorge and Stan at Project Guns. They are going to try to use this NIW M249 MK46 Mod 1 Front Hand Guard on my 16" RPD with an M60 Flash Hider. I am also going to go with an M249 Nut Sack Hanger.

I got to shoot one of Project's Guns Bren in 7.62x54r recently with Stan. It ran like a clock and the ammo is inexpensive. His reweld skills on any receiver he reconstructs are amazing. Your can't find his welds on a finished gun. A true craftsman in restoration of some great weapons. |

thank you! I got it from Maine Military, they hooked me up quite well. Got a very good price on a VERY well made rifle. Vector is amazing... every mating surface inside the receiver has been polished smooth before parkerizing. Nothing like the wise lite M53 I just bought...
Now I have my eyes open for a PKM

Here are the ones I like. Top one is a Vector receiver. Bottom one and all other pics are DSA receivers which make nice original stock builds.
I also own an Egyptian RPD that I do not have the pics up yet. Steve |

I like your angled forgrip idea. I noticed with the rpd drums, reaching around can be a little trouble some and I'm 6' 3". Does the saw bag stay any farther out of the way? Kinda looks like it sticks out more than the drum.

Kinda looks like it sticks out more than the drum. I have the same setup on my Krink so the magazine doesn't hit the forward grip. It works perfect on the RPD even with the SAW bags. I think its the perfect setup. CSF |

ETA: Wise Lite Arms 1960 Polish build with chrome lined barrel
I'm pleased with the rifle, have only run forty rounds through it so far, but no issues. I wish they included a manual/cleaning kit. That's basic stuff and I was disappointed to find it came without them. If anybody reading this has a manual in English that you can share, please IM me! $22 for a fullauto RPD manual in English from German Gun Manuals is my other option  .
