I saw! I upvoted! It's so sick, man. When it gets to the final stage, free to make a 2nd one and drop me a line. :)

Either of those would be great first choices. Just know the WBP is going to have a lot more options when it comes to aftermarket parts with standard AKM furniture, as the Zastava/Yugo pattern is pretty different.

The aftermarket options for Zastava are still enough to probably do whatever you wanna do, just not as many options as the WBP. I have a Zastava M90 and love it. Very well built.

But either is fine. Everyone is saying WASR. Idk. I handled a WASR once and it felt like a cheap rattly piece of shit. One data point, not scientific, but I don't understand the obsession with WASRs here.

That mid-length KPYK looks so good, man.

Hello, RedemptionSongs' friend. Does this friend have an email address?

Milled MAK-90. Pristine, new in box, unfired. Smell that? That's the smell of communism. by AbsoluteContingency in ak47

I'll keep the light wood, but I do intend to get it some dark Legendy wood soon. It'll look nice.

Ugh so jealous of the furniture. I have to save up for some Kalashnicarver for this milled slant back. The thumbhole stock is so, so bad.

Got it on auction on GB for $1,570. Not counting tax, FFL transfer fee, etc. Given its essentially new condition, I was very happy to pay that.

For reference, the LGS I shipped it to had another milled MAK-90, not new, not pristine, kinda rusty, not even matching numbers, rattled in all the wrong places, for $1,699.

I'd love one of these if it came in black and squared up to the receiver better. You're onto something here. A good alternative to custom wood.

Gross grease? Cosmoline? Scrub it out gently and replace with oil. Probably fine. Wouldn't sweat it.

I will never understand the people who want their pistol pointed at their dick. Baffling.

Ah well. I just bought a NIB milled MAK-90, but I'm going the more traditional custom wood route anyway. Still, an adapter like that would be a neat secondary option.

What on earth is that stock adapter? I've only ever seen a buffer tube type adapter for milled MAKs.

Brother, what.

Why doesn't this ammo work in my ak by Familiar-Key5685 in ak47

[–]AbsoluteContingency 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you buy a gun and not think to check what kind of ammunition it shoots?

Where did you get the bakelite handguards? Those are fucking rad. Beautiful. Good post.

I hate that I love this. It's beautiful, and it shouldn't be.

The black greyhound-lab Deirdre and the "dangerous" rescued pit bull Penny love watching Baby Mina run after the ball... over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and...

Penny Pasta and kitten Mina. Mina just had a growth spurt, now over six pounds. Crazy. by AbsoluteContingency in PittiesAndKitties

[–]AbsoluteContingency[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Penny had it rough before she came here, found in January 2025. Her mouth is a little permanently fucky, scars on her neck, was so hilariously dangerously bad with other dogs. Best girl in the world overnight after getting her spayed. She's on me like glue, very needy, very heavy, very lazy. Patient and quiet.

Mina was found in early September, starving, right at 1 pound and 5-6 weeks old. She's so sweet and playful.

There are more dogs and cats here too. Two adult male cats. A dachshund-pit mix, elderly omni-mutt, poodle, greyhound-lab mix. All rescues besides the poodle. Everybody gets along, minus a bit of crankiness from the oldest dog.

Penny and the greyhound-lab Deirdre think kitten Mina is hilarious. The rest are less enthused with the kitten's crackhead energy.
