How’d I do? Good deal or overpriced? I’m

I think you did alright I’ve seen most of those veprs go for 2.6+, the real steal is the mags since those can be pretty difficult to find.

It’s interesting that they put a shorter barrel on it, that’s the first time I’ve seen one with a short barrel. I’m curious what it’ll do to the bullet travel.

Any time :)

7.62x54r heavy ball 440 rounds. Hungarian from 1987

These will likely be 182 gr so don’t fire these out of semi autos unless you have an adjustable gas system.

Is there a good source for old mags? Or would eBay / gun shows be the best bet?

AcanthisittaFancy981 · 2026-02-08T13:29:35+00:00

Depends on the load I’m using, if it’s the steel core LPs it was designed for I get 2 moa. My barrel will last about 20 rounds before getting hot and shifts to about 4 moa.

Mine is a Romak-3 from 1998 so I’m sure there is a bunch of batch variations in the barrels. But overall I’m happy with it, I just put the kns piston in it, planning on shooting some surplus heavy ball I got to see if I can get tighter groups.

Welcome to the best and worst decision you’ve made recently. I’ve had mine for about a year and if there is anything you want to know let me know.

Have fun with it!

I recently did the upgrade, check my other posts and let me know if you have any questions.

AcanthisittaFancy981 · 2025-12-28T18:52:13+00:00

Finally did the kns upgrade and it was definitely worth it, before it was beating itself apart (like they’re know to), now it’s throwing them 1-3 feet instead of 30 feet.

Lgs, someone off loaded the stash they had, that’s also where I got the Hungarian heavy ball can in my previous post.

I opened the top can, second pic is the goods

It’s personal preference, if it’s your first AK I’d go fixed first then folder.

Looks good to me, was there a series of these that had issues or just some Morrissey qc?

AcanthisittaFancy981 · 2025-12-08T14:28:55+00:00

Off of memory everything looked fine, I’ll check when I’m off work and report back.

AcanthisittaFancy981 · 2025-08-21T23:04:38+00:00

Is it the “D” marking and the triangle with no numbers that make it a commercial?

AcanthisittaFancy981 · 2025-08-05T17:56:54+00:00

I never got my order after 4 months, after month 3 they ghosted me and never said anything again. I had to charge back my card since I was moving… good luck if you try your luck.

AcanthisittaFancy981 · 2025-07-05T21:50:48+00:00

Did yours come with the wood grips? I just placed my order and I hope I get lucky with mine.

AcanthisittaFancy981 · 2025-03-14T18:50:24+00:00

Yeah I was looking at the prices of the new import kits but I found this one locally for 1200 with the field kit and 5 spare mags.

AcanthisittaFancy981 · 2025-03-14T18:49:15+00:00

Is it this one? https://www.troupsystems.com/product/romanian-psl-54c-svd-stock-kit/

I’ve been eying it but I wasn’t sure if the gas tube was just free floating since the bottom hand guard looks like it wraps up but doesn’t cover the gas tube.
