If you're gonna use AR parts on your AK

[Great-Kazoo]

Make it look like this.
I wanted to do a com-bloc version of the XM-177 / Commando / CAR-15 just for ****s & giggles. All i see are magpul stocks, magpul stocks, magpul stocks. on ak's so i went a different route
I took my Draco-C pistol

and following ATF guidelines went to a rifle config until i decide how i want my SBR to look.
Stock is an used Ace folder, AFG (YES it's a MAGPUL ) generic AK quad rail from the used bin, used permanently attached a 5.5" AR flash hider to round it out to a legal 16.5' bbl. I have had this sitting in the locker until i located the parts to turn it in to this gem.
I don't think my picture taking does justice to the semi finished project. I don't normally get excited about a toy i wanted to do, but this one is up there regarding a keeper. This unit shoulders nice, sights go right up to line of sight, feel of it is very comfortable.

Looks nice. You should let me shoot it!

Sure, i will be in the alley about 20 min from now. lets see how many neighbors we wake up
Looking at getting together with justin and wringing this unit out. He stopped by today and want's to do something similar, couldn't pry his hands off it.

That draco is bad ass, or as you would say Jim, zippy. Now my idea, imagine that same thing but a .223 draco with an ar mag addaptor I love the flash hider, I should get one for my 5.45 east german I'm building while I'm waiting on my tax stamp

That is a very nice looking Ak Jim. You are making me want to build one I wish I had the funds to do so.

I had an AK pistol once, and it looked like it would require machine work to put a stock on it. How did you do it?

the draco has an underfolder rear trunion, i could have drilled holes through he side of the receiver, but do not like cheek weld of the UF. I dug up an ACE folding stock unit

squared it to the rear of the receiver center punched 2 guide holes then drilled and tapped for an 8-32 button head bolt. if you had another one we could knock it out in about 20-30 minutes. A little patience (which i lack) and this is the end result. I an removing the f/hider and follow justins suggestion i turn down the back section of the hider to match the front sight block diameter. I have a few nfa toys and will do this one in to a SBR eventually, however i am liking the look i thought up and may just keep it as is.

Is the Draco threaded m14x1LH or did you rethread it to 1/2-28? Or did you find a flash hider threaded M14-1LH?

reamed out the 1/2 x 28 threads and did a slip fit on to the muzzle.

[jreifsch80]

we need to do some fireball dispersing tests, lets do some night shooting haha.

as for the threads i think jim reamed out the fh and welded in an ak muzzle nut.

edit: oh hey Jim, where can i get that fh for cheap, i'm thinking of putting one on my amd
