AKstravaganza!

[RUSTSPOT]

Somalia style AK i picked up today from airsoftgear.ca store. i could not stand a shinny AK so i weathered it right the way in the store.

Beautiful stuff dude, what did you use to weather it, and what brand is it?

[RUSTSPOT]

Some fine auto refinishing prep pad. Gives it a very even "wear" compair to sand papers or scotch brait. The wood's still too new. Gonna bake it dry and dip it in used motor oil then put it in some actual use to get that old feel.

It's lct bty

Fantastic weathering job man. That thing looks great.

I started cold bluing on my CYMA AK-47 with Outers Gun Blue. It worked on the monkey metal parts as well as the steel. The finish turned out a little blotchy, but it just adds character. So far the upper receiver, selector lever and most of the business end.

Got it yesterday, haven't had time to whip the good camera out for good photos.

I've got a POSP coming sometime this week if i'm lucky, but likely the next. so my PK-A sight will have to do for now.

Its the CYMA SVD Dragunov. Clone of the Realsword. Its real nice

I second this.

I'm looking for a integrated flashlight forend for an SU and outside of the Japanese airsoft magazine I saw it in I just can't seem to find it anywhere.
It's probably early-mid 90's era and pretty glompy looking, like a Russian designer saw an MP5 Navy, decided they needed something like it for 74Us, and made an unsubtle facsimile. I've done plenty of different google searches and really have no idea of what to call it.
I'm quite certain based on this that it's going to be quite rare or even impossible to find, but if anyone knows what it might be, well that's half the battle. If anyone knows what I'm talking about and furthermore has a source on one, I will 100% seriously mail them cookies.

Pics of my 107SU build will follow shortly.

The Mp5 Hand-guard was custom fitted. The only Flash-light ever made for the AK series rifles, never got past the prototype stage. I don't remember the name but it was big and mounted to the optic plate.

is that.....yours?

How's the internals on that dragunov? I kinda want one for a dmr build but not sure if it's feasible.

[Strelok]

Impressions internally: Good.

Needs shimming, which is pretty standard for anything cloned.

The outer barrel was bent a wee bit. and the hopup was actually completely disengaged from the wheel (if you pick one up, you'll understand) so I had to screw that back in.

I shot it on my lunchbreak with the fixed hop, and its actually very consistent and accurate. i'm excited to run some heavier BB's and mount the proper scope on it. All despite the curve in the barrel.

If worst comes to worst, i'll just buy a complete SVD gearbox and plop it in . Already hunting down a new inner barrel and new mags.

love it, it would look better with an AKM flashhider, just IMO.
