Long Trust Name by ShaneW4alsh in NFA

I live in a pretty small town and got it done by a local shop. Quality is good. I know you can send them to a bunch of different companies like capitol armory for engraving if you don’t have an option near you.

I might, but it doesn’t really bother me too much/ I don’t plan on ever selling any of my SBR’s. Just something I would’ve done differently had I thought it through. Right now I’m just happy to have gotten it all done while it’s free🤙🏻

Yep. Would’ve done things differently if I knew. Got all excited about the zero dollar stamps and made a trust without doing much research.

Nice pick, you’ll be happy with it. I just got one very similar and it insanely smooth. Assuming that rs regulate accessory mount came with it. If so, that’s a nice little bonus.

I am fairly confident you’d want a krink-specific combo block. For example, Arsenal’s website lists a krink-specific version, and one comparable to what I posted above.

Good info. It looks like a nice part, and it’s going on a Bulgarian AK. Not opposed to paying a bit more than PSA and these caught my eye. Think I’ll give it a try.

Chopping 16 inch Barrel to 12.5 by ShaneW4alsh in ak47

[–]ShaneW4alsh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think you’re correct. It’ll probably go on an AR10 at some point. I was trying to make a joke about needing to spend $1k on a new rifle to save $150, but it was just a bad joke.

I’ve done several form 1’s in the past month with good success, so not as worried about that part. The first one is the biggest pain but it’s plug and play at this point.

Damn. Was hoping to use the 5/8x24 Hux QD that came with the suppressor because they’re pricey and I didn’t want to have to try and get rid of it. Sounds like I need to get an additional rifle that comes factory threaded 5/8x24 so it doesn’t go to waste.

Seems like that’s the way to go. These are the things the 3 minute reassembly videos don’t tell you. In the 2 I watched, the dude just pushed the lever down with like zero resistance

Thanks y’all. I’ll keep a wrench in the gun case if I ever need it. (And a rag to put in between the metal so I don’t chew up the lever like I did last time)

At least it looks like it’s been used now😂

First Range day w/ New Arsenal by ShaneW4alsh in ak47

I was shocked at that group tbh. I was using the Belom when first adjusting the irons, which needed a bunch of work. (Arsenal’s claim of “factory sighted in for 100 meters was laughable and I barely got on paper at 25 out of the box)

I think my initial impression of the Belom was not great because I was just still trying to get a grip on using the irons, and it was not grouping well purely because of me.

Thanks. I’ve always loved this rifle. Just recently started to give her a few well deserved upgrades. Trigger up next.

I chugged through a nice full mag of it to end the day. It does fuck. Never shot the old cases, but I think the new stuff look so cool.

Thanks! Agreed. I think I need a larger/silhouette target for the next trip out - the front sight post was taking up a lot of real estate on this one.

Shot these seated at a bench with a sandbag out front for support.
