Look at the locking of the 81 mags. You need to grind a pocket for the bolt catch on the back of the AK and then grind the front to clear the trunnion.
Should still work in an AK as none of the surfaces used for locking are effected.
With a 5 round mag.
Could cut a little less deep. I copied the 81 mag. 9mm from the top of the locking lug and ~7 wide at the bottom widening to ~9mm at the top.
Ground about 3mm off the front to about 3mm from the front rib.
Little care and measuring constantly and it locks up tighter than the factory mags.

Maybe I should strip this a give it a darker stain. I like the look of the darker wood. More like the real military rifles.

Less then 1% of the overall shipment have been defective
Where are you getting that number from? Not that I don't believe you but I'm just curious. Again by the poll conducted here on CGN it appears over 20% of the reports have been defective, the majority of issues have been found on folders though.
Id have to agree,

If your using your iron sights like he is (fig. 3), you cant expect much in the way for good groups at any real distance, let alone with a rack grade semi and surplus x39. Try using a sight picture like #2, will help with the target being covered by the post
Anyone wondering how hard it is to remove the fixed stock, just put 20 rounds through the rifle in -7 weather and the pins holding the stock in place should just drift right out lol.
My experience anyways your results may vary.
The rifle was still fun to shoot even if I had to keep pushing the pins back in

Didn't had any problems at -15 with mine

I removed my stock for refinishing. The pins go in and out easily. I plan to replace them with Chicago screws.
Hmmmm, that's a new one. I'll have to check mine to see if they come out easily. I've carried it on a sling a lot and have around 100 rounds through it with no issues yet.
When I had mine side by side with the AK it looked like with a small amount of grinding an AK stock will fit, I'd like to find a nice option stock anyway so loose pins will make it easier. I was looking at the Magpul AK MOE rifle stock but it had the same length of pull as the original and I'd like a little more so passed on it.
Angle where it interfaces with the receiver is slightly different but other than that it looked like it would fit.
Weird how the 81 has about an inch of space between the trigger guard and the magwell but the AK does not.

So what is the best way to measure for the "bent" issue? I think a lot of the perceived bent rifles may be due to a bit of an optical illusion.
Mine appears to be slightly off to the right with the dust cover on and a lot better with it off. Measuring shows its actually pretty straight, maybe even off to left a hair.
I'm interested in seeing some ppls method of measuring.
