This is everyone's game. Mind you, haven't seen your work lately.

The very little I've done lately I didn't post it in here.
I'm kinda fed up with all the comments questioning
the legality of things (even when most of them have FRT #'s).
Now, in my very little spare time I work on some 10/22 projects
and on a Canada-legal copy of a bullpup AR, somewhere in this spirit:

Which of your (many) stocks is the most comfortable to shoot with for you?

 

[sillymike]

heres a few .

Would you happen to have a better picture of the folder with the cheek raiser? Looks like Kidex or something similar?

Curious mind wants to know

Kydex is Deckard's prerogative.
Only Deckard is allowed to work kydex and post results.

Everybody else should wait
for Deckard to finnish his kydex 97 deflector first
(about 2 and a half years).

 

[palinak]

hey ...instead of razing on him ...we should all go for a beer if he is still in town

going shooting tomorrow PICA ....give me a call if you're up to it.

 

[Deckard]

Thanks. I would like that but right now I'm knee deep in home renoes and warding off Lecta's jibes. LOL.

 

[suprathepeg]

I hear kydex is for sissies.

(side note I just did a search for sissy vids and came accross some very wierd things, attempt at your own risk)

I would do dirty things for that rifle.

 

[Curtton]

i know i said the chinese AK clone was easy to do , well , i lied , i wasnt happy with the look of the cz handguard (HG) on the clone (on front page) so i adapted the shorter AK HG and place a bracket behind it to fill in the gap and also to lock it in . looks much better now .

deck: this is the last of the mod for this thread , putting away the power tools .

 

[Deckard]

No, I think it's cool. I've got to find time to make an RPK side folder.

 

[chanman]

How does the RPK clone look with the L1A1 flash hider?

 

[Deckard]

I think you should do a Tabuk clone.

[retepnosflow]

That is just plain cool, thanks for the info, very good stuff & just makes a guy want to get more involved with the custom work.

 

[Curtton]

How does the RPK clone look with the L1A1 flash hider?

it doesnt , RPK doesnt have a FH and also when i mount the bipod near the gas block and fold it forward , it gets in the way .

I recall someone was interested in the VSS Vintorez stock. Who was that? I hope others can join the fun here, curtton. Here is tonight's effort, in the rough and with a few 58 dimensions in the mix.

i think it was ridgearms but im not too sure.

very interesting deck, is that a 1" thick maple ? love to see how it turns out .

 

[bluey]

Looking at all those sweet conversions got me thinking........anybody do a AK style woodwork for a std SKS-D?

 

[Deckard]

It is 1.5 inches raw, but will thin a great deal up top and around edges.

I have seen some SKS conversions but they usually fail. Buy the plastic stocks.
