[/URL]What my kit looks like so far. Still collecting parts though.
-
Ok, so imagine an AMD-65 with and underfolder, a romy uf dong handguard, and a Tabuk flash hider. That is going to be the plan for the above kit. For the actual Khyber Pass build, I have purchased a Yugo kit, and that should be coming in shortly. Will post pics whenever it gets here.

Don't throw your barrel away. From the looks of it, there's enough to set everything back and make an AK pistol there. It'd require chopping down the whole gas system but it would be a worthy project. The AK files has several to look at.
Good luck with the build.Thanks for the luck. I will probably need it as there is no part for the barrel to be pressed into the trunnion with... I just put it there to give a general look of the kit. And I will probably end up getting rid of the barrel stubs. Maybe even with the parts on there.

I will post more pics of parts as I go along. I'm still looking for parts though.... you know just in case you have any just laying around or something like that...

what my kit basically looks like.
* sorry for the crappy cell phone pic, might try better next time.

[/URL][/URL]I already have some parts to make this the most Khyber Pass AK ever.
If you want to know what parts I will be using (you know, in case you have any you don't want) the list will be here:

Best no one steal my idea...

MORE!!!! I DEMAND MORE!!!!!

At first I was going to build something along the lines of this:
Then, slowly, it turned into this:
But now, I'm more of an ak guy, so I am slowly gathering parts for this and my new ak at the same time. IF you look around, you can find some really good deals.

Some pretty nice ak's here. Keep 'em coming!
Oh, and as of right now, I am collecting parts for the ultimate khyber pass AK. I will post a pic of the parts whenever I get around to collecting them all.

I feel so special. My first was a 1911. Then, not too long ago, my dad decide to give me his Lorcin L9mm. I feel as if they just took a GLOCK, made the grip beefier, and put a half-ass grip safety on it. The trigger pull is like mush. It was jamming like a mother humper for the first magazine-and-a-half I put through it. After that it got to an okay, not too jammy phase. Then I was reading some horror stories about them exploding, and the front part of the slide flying off in the middle of shooting it. I think I'll just sell it and get a TN made Beretta 92.

How about something like this?
Or, practically anything from all the Dead Space and Halo games.

Here's my latest project while I'm waiting on the Manticore handguard. I gave a shot at the Asura's copy of the Zenit B-10 to see how it would work. I got the Asura becasue i didn't want to spend on the real one without knowing if it were even possible. Let's just say it doesn't fit with out a good deal of work. While this one "fits" I could do a lot better on a second attempt now that I know all the parts that have to be modified. Top is an old beat up Yugo handguard that I painted to match to see if i liked it. BTW - the handguard itself is a very well made copy of the Zenit for less. I love the ergonomics. It is very thin and handles well. The light rail on the side is a bit out of spec. The gaps are too narrow, but a little file work can fix that. i suspect that the Zenit rail would not have this problem.
Well, I think I found my new concealed carry weapon...

Im still looking for a vector arms underfolder... sold my vepr and arsenal when i married my first wife. If anyone comes across one for dale please let me know! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
there's a few on akfiles. or you could put up a wtb ad somewhere.

OK, so turns out nobody has one. anywhere. May I please have some guidance?

If your raw receiver proves to be kosher as is as a legal pistol host, that will cover the short barrel.
The side mounted stock attachment is not an issue period, short barrel or not, even if it will only accept one type of stock you possess, as could be configured with your rifle parts to make a legal folding stock rifle, eh?
Remember, a grouping of parts must have useful purpose ONLY for making an NFA firearm.
It all hinges on legitimacy of your receiver at this point as related to the short barrel. Is it a big deal to just get it bent and drilled so that it is a true "firearm"? Or as I said, call and ask if it qualifies in its present condition (which admittedly, a field agent may not even know either).
- OS
What I might do for right now at least, is let someone else hold the actual stock and barrel for me. I'll have to "call back tomorrow, as the NFA division is closed right now."
***EDIT*** or I guess the option of pinning the muzzle device is an option put back on the table.
-
I haven't ever built an AK and I know as much about them as the mechanicals of Big Ben. But I would bet that the rear trunion has nothing to do with headspace. Course, I've been known to be wrong about clocks...
You sir are correct. Headspacing an ak is basically like another firearm; it's all in the front part. The only reason I don't build it into a pistol is because I have a side-folding trunnion, which has the hole for a pin to go through. And as of right now the stock is sitting here on my computer desk, not in the trunnion. Just in case. I'm trying to be as legal as possible, but I also have another ak here. Hoping that doesn't give me jail time...
-
Wonder if it could be classified as an arm brace on a AK pistol?
I could see someone making that argument. just put your arm all the way through the hole in the handle and make an 80o angle with your arm. Let's do it!!!
-
Robertrtg said they may have a shipment coming in in the next month or so. They didn't know where to get them either. Apex just said they don't have any and don't know where to get them. I will check other forums and update you on my progress. Thanks for the help though.

Does anyone know where I can find an East German MPi-km gas block? I want it for my current build, and I feel like making it a mutt. And for this mutt I require an East German MPi-km gas block. I'm fairly sure they are milled and that is really the only reason I want one. I would go with a Romanian one, but I guess it's my OCD that is completely saying "It won't be from the same gun, so now none of the parts, minus the bolt, bolt carrier, and trunnion, can be from the same country." Please, if you either have one, know where I can acquire one, inform me about it. Thanks in advance.

Parents, relatives, anybody that doesn't own a rifle it could fit on.
Look, the flat may well suffice for a legal pistol configuration -- call yer regional ATF field agent and ask, no kidding. I've found them quite willing to help, not the ogres of internet lore, and they didn't ask for my name or anything, have called maybe five times. Buy a pre-paid throwaway cell phone with cash if you'd worry about them tracing the call and conducting a raid. :)
- OS
Thanks for the advice. I'll probably just use a friend's phone. Then I'll let my cousin in TX hold it for me. He is more of a cowboy gun kinda guy. He shouldn't mind, and I doubt that you could fit it to a lever 30-30. I hope... :leaving:

Well, you know the odds are so long against any trouble that they're almost hypothetical, and "constructive possession" stuff is generally only used as "add on" charges when folks are already under suspicion and busted for something else anyway.
That said, don't take that as any kind of legal advice for Gawd's sake. Certainly a legal 16" barrel offers no chance of any kind of violation, that's clear.
Myself, I'd likely just stash the short barrel with a friend or relative which it couldn't affect until time to deal with it. It's long odds and a stupid rule to begin with, but the penalty can be harsh, and any chance of it easily avoided no matter how small the chances.
That has often been suggested as a parallel, but if you think about it, a hacksaw has clearly useful purposes other than making an NFA firearm. :) Seriously, even if it were stashed in your rifle bag, who's to say you weren't thinking about sawing off the trigger guard or a bit of the pistol grip or something, also useful purposes other than making an NFA firearm. :)
Also, though, and more seriously, pretty far fetched to think it would be upheld as a "part" as the ruling states.
- OSIs it bad that don't really trust any of my friends to hold that barrel for almost a year? It's really not that they will "lose" it or anything. It's just that they'll forget it's mine then use it on their own build. Or sell it, or something like that.
-
Kinda like.....
What kind of sling is that?
-
No idea on that little bit of esoterica, because I don't know what the status is of an AK flat, or 80% unfinished AR lower, meaning since it is not yet a "firearm", would it suffice for covering the legal status of having a short barrel laying around?
On one hand, seems that it would, since ATF has no problem assuming you can easily enough manhandle and rearrange any already constructed firearms to be in violation, including ones with pressed in barrels that are riveted together -- on the other hand, AK flats/receiver blanks and AR 80%ers are allowed to be sold unregulated precisely because they are not "firearms", so again, no idea.
- OS
So should I just sit here and wait to see if the ATF is going to bust down my door? Or permanently attach the muzzle device, to be 100% safe? I would like to wait, but I also don't want the ATF to bust down my door and deem my current firearm to be readily convertible with the necessary parts to do so.
***EDIT*** I just thought about something. Since I have an ak, and a hacksaw, does that by default make me the not-so-proud owner of an illegal SBR? I mean, a Dremel could also do the trick, so would that make the majority of the people on the forums in general be not-so-proud owners of illegal SBR's too?

1 AK and 1 spade handle. :rofl:
Seems legit...

Yeah, I know the safety is missing. It technically isn't actually done yet. the trigger guard/ mag catch is messed up, so i'm getting a new one of those. I'm getting a krebs safety. I think the front sight is canted. And the barrel is still in the white.
