VZ 58 furniture does not fit Type 81

[randyhub]

Ordered a set hoping it would fit my T81, top handguard was too short.

Going to list it for 37.00 (SOLD) shipped to majors or trade for 5nd metal AK mag.

Did u watch this before ordering?

 

[randyhub]

No, doing that makes sense and would have saved me time and money, damn!

Buy a VZ58 rifle for the HG set. Problem solved. Lol.

The HG set is a good price from wolverine.

Hmmmmm

Looked at the VZ, but I like the character and design of the Type 81 folder even more, strange, the 81 just reminds me of my old 84s.

it needs some filing, for sure. I've fit plastic skin from VZ81 to T81
handle fits perfectly though

cant argue with you there.

the set is made by CZ of hard plastic/rubber, not easy to mod the lower HG.

VZ58 skin, except the gas tube cover (from SKS) and the butt pad (AK74)

Almost done with the mods! Shoutout to Dave from hical.ca for showing me how they did their T81 for the Zhukov to fit. Took an afternoon but pretty straight forward. My goal was to "modernize" the rifle but with proper methods so it can be a SHTF rifle and not just for the range.

- Magpul AK MOE+ grip
- Magpul Zhukov U handguard
- removed wood panel from top handguard and trimmed to fit the Magpul lower handguard
- refinished bolt carrier with black PVD/DLC

The handguard mounts the way it should on an AK and is rock solid. No shims or washers needed like with the vz58. The top handguard steel portion clears the magpul barrel clamps by 5mm, and the piston spring clears them by 2mm.

he has done part of the HG . the stock would be difficult cos he needs an adapter plus the stocks on T81 arent really removable.

Not bad.
