Custom AR in 7.62x39 setups? Pros, Cons?

[jenznat0r]

I actually had a local gunsmith here in Idaho modify the feed lips on all my mags to more of an “AK” style so feeding the round from the BCG would be a lot easier. With the original design, I had failure to feeds all day long. The c-products mags are by far the best on the market, and even those required some modification. The BCG on my upper was total garbage, the roll pin on it for the extractor was too long from the factory and my gunsmith had to file it down. Constant hang ups and failure to feeds with that thing. I ended up sacrificing that bolt and putting something on it called the “Kali Key” which converts your AR to a single shot, straight pull. The fail zero on it currently solved ALL of my problems. Runs like a dream now.

Slightly off-topic, but I called my Dad last night and talked to him about some of my setups. Mentioning this one he said, “you really like to build oddball, not common stuff don’t you? Why don’t you just build normal stuff that works right out of the box?”
