Lou Cifer! The evilest AK I'll probably ever own!
The base gun is a 2007 GP WASR 10/63. Everything on it seems more refined and better put together than my old 2000 SAR-3. I went with the ACE folder 8.5" with 0.5" rubber buttpad. I used the internal receiver block (cut the rear tang off). The stock stays in place, and yanking on it doesn't allow it to deploy. I've got to put a little upward pressure on it with my thumb to deploy the stock. I'm diggin it! Of course, the elusive Samson rail. Lots of folks have badmouthed this rail, primarily because of the price. I got a STEAL on the rail, and it is the very reason this project happened. Otherwise, I'd have stuck with my ebony stained furniture.
I'm sure there'll be haters out there. What A S*itty Rifle...Craptical, "Remove the tactical accessories immediately" etc...Be gone! I saw a similar setup at SHOT Show a few years back at the Arsenal booth. I don't think Arsenal ever offered the rifle, and if they did, I wasn't going to pay the $1300 for it. Both the stock and the railed forend required mods to the rifle. Removal of the rear tang, and cutting offf the front sling loop on the lower handguard retainer. Why the WASR? Well, you don't go hacking up an Arsenal, do you? I've got less in this rifle right now than the cost of the basic "no-frills" boutique builds from the better known AK builders out there. THAT'S why!
This rifle is going to be getting duracoat woodland tan with black accents very soon. This rifle will make a great camping companion, or for when I'm travelling through the more backwoods parts of Florida. I plan to try out my Burris Fastfire on the rail, to see how that works out. I'll use the lower rail for a light, and I am considering using a TLR-1 that I have on hand. I got into this for cheap, so why go pouring more and more money into it!?
My photos always suck b/c my camera won't take a decent pic unless the flash is on. Automatic apertures suck, what can I say. Enjoy...
