Finally got the AK I wanted (Pic Heavy)
4/11/2012 5:13:00 PM
So, recently I purchased an SLR-105 and immediately fell in love with the rifle. However, I decided I wanted a triangle folder. By a stroke of luck, I found this rifle on Gunbroker and immediately bought it and sold the other rifle. I know it's an SLR as well, but it saved me the trouble and time of having to install a folder and it cost me less than it would have been to have mine modified. Plus it came with a few extras. I'm super happy with this rifle and can't wait to take it to the range. The only thing I didn't like about the rifle was, the previous owner installed a recoil buffer. Of course, this is easily removed.
I immediately installed a US Palm grip on it. Other than that, I plan on installing a micro dot and calling it a day. I'm still looking at my mounting options for the red dot. I prefer the looks of the Ultimak with the stock lower hand guard. However, I like the function of the new MI SS Extended rail with the micro specific mount. The MI is supposed to run cooler as well, which should extend the life of the optic... Undecided. Anyhow, Thanks for looking. I'll update this post once I go to the range. A special thanks goes out to purevl2, and SGL_Shooter for answering questions I had.
On a side note (and I'm sure most wont agree with this) I'm considering cutting the barrel down to 14.5" and rethreading the barrel to 1/2 x 28 and permanently installing a flash hider (undecided on which one yet). Back and forth on doing this or not. I just want something other than the 74 brake that's on it and i don't like any of the other options (the few there are) I have seen in 24mm x 1.5. Anyhow, thanks for looking.

If you want it to be a correct AKS-74 clone, you shouldn't do this, but my own view is that the payoff with an AK-100 series GB/FSB combo can't be underestimated. Rifle is so light and handles like a dream. Rifle weighs 6 lb, 12 oz INCLUDING the TWS Dogleg II rail and PA micro red dot sight. It's lighter than many AR's! I'm running a BC 1.5 right now, but thinking of switching to a flash hider, because it is a little noisy. Have to perm attach it of course. (Mine is silver soldered).
Here are some pics that will have to do for now...

Ha, it came with the rifle. I have no idea what it is, and have no use for it. It's cool to know though. Good eye.

Good score man looks like a really nice package.

No problem. I'm a huge fan of the palm grips. They feel so much better than the stock grip. The hogue's are nice too.

Did a google search and you are correct. I had no idea either way. Thanks for the heads up.
