Grendelizing the AK

[stanc]

Somebody want to start a thread on what their dream "AK65" might look like?

Okay, John. I'd like something along the line of this:

AK65

Bill's pic looks like a Vepr (Molot [http://www.molot-usa.com/vepr.php). I guess we'll need some particulars though to figure out how we could pimp them.

I would prefer a right side folding stock (Zhukov I guess), and I would rather have an ambi safety, but it isn't a deal breaker.

They probably have 1.5mm receivers (good). Hopefully they're using their chrome lined hammer forged barrels too.

Holding out for more pics!!!


ETA: Hopefully my link works. For some reason the board causes Safari to crash now when you hit a post link button (links or pics).

Here is a Vepr 12 with side folder and ambi safety. Something like this with right side folding instead of left perhaps.



I seem to recall some being sold with the stock tack welded open, but you could break the weld (registered SBS) after you did your paperwork.

Hmm so many options, I might prefer to get a plan ak65 since I have a good friend who's a Smith and does AK builds. He built 6.8 for a customer before with 18" barrel. Might be cheaper than Krebs

I like Johns pic, but I think I want a side folder with a Geissele triggers depending on the stock one.

Indeed :-) A buddy of mine has a 20" Vepr in 7.62x39 that I like alot. It's a pretty solid 2MOA rifle with decent ammunition. The only two things that are pretty annoying on it are the trigger, and no receiver rail.
