Quoted: I used to be "full stock" all the way until I actually tried a Romy folder on my SEAK. Was very pleasantly surprised at the amount of good cheekweld when using irons and the near-perfect cheekweld & eye position when using the PK-AS sight. Doesn't look as "kewl" as some of the other folders but function is far more important to me than aesthetics. Tomac

You have lost your mind, why would you want to put something that is inexpensive and funtional on your AK?

I have been very pleased with the Romanian side folers for a good while, I bought some from FAC that were welded open, just to try them out, ans was very happy with them, I fire left handed and I actually get a slightly better sight picute with a Romy side folder than the wood. It took me a long time to warm up to thier looks, but now kind of like the way theu look. I certainly like the way they work now that they can fold. As a matter of fact I have a couple of extras now that the ban is gone, and it is so easy to make the elded units funtion. I will be holding on to these for use on rifles that I acquire in the future.
