What do you need? Future SBR ![]() You....I like you I'd take the 105 over the Krink. Less expensive and more badass. That 12.5" barrel is accurate too. You can ring steel out to 500 yards with it no problem. |

Quoted:
What do you need? Future SBR ![]() I can't think of anyone in state I would trust doing an AK build as far as shops go, it's just not a skill that shops in CT have. As a matter of fact I'm helping a friend get his virgin Bulgy Krink kits built up on pre ban receivers and myself have an AK105 kit I'll be building up. I'll be doing my own 105 but I am not SBRing it, I have a manticore extended booster. I had a Krink built on a pre ban Type84S receiver like Tom has, Troy at InRange built it. I'm not sure who I'm going to have do the next one, I'm thinking of having the guys up in VT at Windsor Arms do the build. They do beautiful work on all sorts of guns, especially dirty commie guns. |

No, in range fucked me on it. I sent Troy all the parts, talked on the phone and emails, waited 6 months..... Then he sends the same box back to me untouched with a hand scribbled note saying "sorry I can't build this". No idea why, nothing. Found Matt Yanas (or something with a Y) in Washington state, does AK work. He said he'd do it and turn around time was like 3 weeks with the same parts I sent to In Range. He does all my AK work now. |

I've heard nothing but good things about Windsor Arms, I think I'll be using them for some work on my RPD too. |

Use Matt at my guns. He's cheap and fast, only takes on work he can do. My Krink wasn't gone for more than a month.
Another guy had him do a Krink for him as well, some how got the ATF to OK him using the original Krink Bulgy trunion in the Chinese receiver. Mostly the reason I don't like mine, it looks like a fugly Chinese gun. |

So, to keep the pre-ban Chinese SN one has to use the original ugly as shit Chinese trunion on the build. That ruined it for me. However another member here had Matt build him one and it used his original bulgy trunion. |
