I've decided not to use the vertical fore grip and have ordered a magpul afg2 to try out. I also removed the muzzle nut and will be installing a muzzle break when it arrives. More pics soon if yall wanna see lol
I did re-load some brass rounds for mine and couldn't tell any difference in function they did show improved accuracy and cleaner burning, then I got cheap and lazy and used store bought. it was cheaper to buy the bulk than make my handmade with a premium bullet, but would definitely use the hand loads for hunting.if you are not aware yet you soon will be, those bbl's get very hot and will melt some wood finishes on the forends, possibly plastic also, something to keep in mind.
Once I get mine all put together I'll post some pics, it's a WASR AK and just ordered all the goodies for her....
I liked the full wood stocks and steel butt plate that came with it and re-finished with tung oil, tough enough to break a door in with it, fine walnut by no means but do appreciate hiding/carrying ease of a shorter folding stock.
I ordered a quad rail forend and front pistol type grip for mine because of the heat factor. Gonna put the wood away since it's gorgeous... Adding a 4 position adjustable poly stock, side scope mount and scope and I'll be good to go... Just picked up a 75 round steel drum for $75.00 NIB for her also...
