Modacity shooters' thread

'Good condition' must be Chinese for 'previously used as tomato stakes'.

Picking this up on Sunday with 2 30-round magazines and a hard case for $475.



AT-47, built on "Bulgarian" parts kit (Russian parts kits that spend 5 years in Bulgaria which magically makes then Bulgarian and thus OK to import), with an ER Shaw barrel (mid-grade varmit/match barrel manufacturer) and an Xtreme Machining US-made receiver. They're available partially milled or stamped, and this one is stamped, which is fine because my SKS-NR fills my milled receiver 7.62x39 firearm that takes AK mags niche.

Now THAT looks like an AK to me. Gorgeously ugly.

I did some digging, and the milled receiver AT-47s are utter garbage. The rear trunnions are screwed in place with allen screws, which get stripped really easily. The one I'm getting is stamped, so that won't be an issue.

The barrels are non-chrome lined, which doesn't matter to me because I do a basic cleaning of all my guns the same day I shoot them, and I don't plan on ever shooting surplus 7.62x39 unless it goes down to below 15 cents per round, and even then it wouldn't be a problem if I cleaned it immediately after shooting.

The receivers are not fully heat treated, only the ejector and axis pin holes are. As long as a literal retard didn't do the heat treating, I should be fine. I don't plan on heavily abusing the rifle so it's not an issue for me.

The mother fucker sold the rifle out from under me.

Wow. Rude.

Huge sale on CDNN right now, including the new LR-300s at really great prices, Thermold 20rd AR-15 mags for $3.99, and more!



Edit: I picked up the Thermold 48rd and Bulgarian 40rd mags because they were cheap and the highest-capacity AK mags I currently own are 30-rounders. I hope they aren't pieces of crap.

[TVTyrant]

Bulgarian mags are "supposed" to be pretty good pieces of equipment.

I know the Circle 10 mags are the best polymer magazines for AKs out there, but these definitely aren't Circle 10. I have a feeling this will be one of the junky off-brand types.

Oh well. If they don't work, I can sell them after the election for twice what I paid.

Election years are crazy. Remember when people bought up EVERYTHING back in 08?
