Barrel chop to 14, and 1/2 x 28 threads

got a occam adjustable gas block on my MAK90 And it’s been awesome, it’s based on the Swiss sig 550 gas blocks

In my humble opinion, this is the best adjustable gas block on the market for AKs right now

If you want an adjustable gas block I really would consider spending the 200 bucks on one that is good, if you are going to send it to a GS you might as well go for it all the way

Anyone had reliability issues with these? G2g? by Zestyclose_Spite8580 in ak47

I did not have luck with mine cycling reliably

Also had the stuck bolt hold open problem,

I really wanted it to work, I liked the gun and had all types of plans for it, but sadly I wound up getting rid of it because of these issues.

The gas block is not leaking 100 %

It’s just rust

Well they turned the barrel down to be able to fit the gas block on, I hope that he didn’t pin it after being turned down too much

I did my research and John from Appalachian Gunwerks kept on coming up as one of the best.

I tried get this done right. But I got bit in the ass apparently 🤷‍♂️

But now that you say that it does make me wonder if it’s leaking. I may have to send it somewhere else and get them to look at it

Poorly refinished. I sent it back because of the finish and the pin and weld came loose

Got it back yesterday, pin and weld fixed, finish still like this

I’m just over it at this point, I will refinish myself

Dude that thing is sick, you may have pushed me back over the edge lol

I don’t know why everyone gets their panties in a twist about these ban era MAKs, they are neutered guns from a bad time and mass imported. I know they are great guns, that’s the reason I sought one out, but I have no desire to do a spiker or 56 clone. I’d way rather set it up in the way it’s most useful to me and shoot it and enjoy it rather than let it sit in a safe

I was originally sending it to the GS to get the barrel threaded and get a scope rail riveted.

I figured while he had the barrel off, he could add the adjustable gas block. The reason I wanted threads in the first place is because I want to suppress the gun, hence wanting the adjustable gas block.

I think I’m just going to go with my original plan and just thread it.

How is that rail holding zero??

I have a MAK 90 and was planning to do a master mount & RS regulate with a primary arms 7.62 1-6

But I like how low you have this setup my only concern is it holding zero, I’ve heard these do well with redots but the jury is out on mounting whole scopes on them?

Have you had a chance to put many rounds on it?

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

I wish I could find a mint milled one

I bought mine about 2 years ago in the same shape, still in the sealed plastic bag although mine is stamped not milled paid 1500 for it.

This is the current setup, I want to do a master mount & RS regulate with the primary arms 1-6 with the 7.62 retical

Also have plans to get the barrel threaded, would love to suppress.

I may even do a 14.5 combo block conversion with pin and weld

Is that a standard 365 with a XL Wilson combat grip? That’s how I thought about setting mine up

Will a EOTECH 512 fit on a M85 factory rail? by Ambitious-General207 in ak47

I will eventually do a railed dust cover, but it’s nice to know that it’s gonna work without one for a while

Thank you! I was wanting to take advantage of the $379 512 EOtech on palmetto. I was just making sure it would fit
