10/22 makeover

[Hadrian]

Very nice, well done.

 

[Devilito]

very nice, very "organic" heh. I took a less woody approach to mine but yours just looks more authentic.

 

[Tyockell18]

Looks pretty sweet. I love the Aks74u's.

I am not very fond of the butt stock angle however.....

Nice job none the less, now I must make one.

some new(er) pics

...didn't want it to be restricted. Decided to do this instead. It was quite a bit of work but i think it looks better now. Best of all, it can go anywhere with me.

Whoa! Is that thing unrestricted? What's the barrel length? I feel my debit-authorization muscle twitching.

 

[DKS]

yes non-restricted. barrel is about 8.5" but thats irrelevant because its a rimfire. OAL is just over 27"

I always thought optics were odd looking on an AK... why use optics to enhance the range when the AK has horrible accuracy anyhow...

ROFL.... yeaah, I still love the Kalashnikovs regardless though.

I have dreams of making love to... erm nevermind. lol just kidding guys.

I really wish I could own one though.

Thanks for all the great pics DKS

CK Gunroom in London, ON, has a couple AK's... Norincos.. one with a folder. I am not considered a real customer though so I didn't get to ask them if I could hold one... if only for a moment.

So just what is a 'real' customer?

i assume he means someone with a 12x being a real customer

 

[Dr.Lector]

Yeah, remind him some more that he didn't get the right angle of the stock


DKS, don't worry about them, they are jealous


Very good job, the details and finnish are remarkable. I love it.

Real nice workmanship, nice crisp edges on the wood, great fitting.

As for the angle: It is your rifle and it fits you like a glove so if you ask me the angle is 100% correct. And those guys who want the grip to match the stock are the same ones rushing to change a CZ58 grip to AK. LOL.

Please post any future work you do and ignore the arm chair mechanics.
