Spring Break '92 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 i was lookking into the springfield XD-40. any suggestions/advice on it? Its entirely up to you dude. Go with what you like and what you shoot well. There's really no point in asking that kind of question on the internet, it only starts a pissing match/dick contest and goes nowhere productive. The best advice is to just do research and make an informed decision based on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring Break '92 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I went ahead and finished my AK with the Ultimak gas tube rail and railed forend in standard length. The red dot is a Primary Arms Micro Dot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qawee Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 how heavy is the gun with the ultimak railed lower? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Break '92 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I cannot perceive a noticeable difference. The wood handguard furniture on an AK is super light, but the Ulimak foreend is light as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOP SUEY! Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 The Ultimak is the next and last thing im going to add to my AK besides a decent red dot. And Cool_Hand, i dont think anybody's weapons on here are full auto you've got to shell out a lot of cash for one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Break '92 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I highly reccomend Ultimak. They are regarded as the makers of high end AK parts. Spend the money, you will thank yourself. If you visit the Primary Arms site, you will find that they carry Ultimak components as well and when you buy one of their Micro red dot sights you have the option to buy either or both the Ultimak gas tube rail and Ultimak railed forend at discounted prices. JUST DO IT. If you have an AK, the Ultimak parts will transform your rifle. Added to this, the Ultimak gas tube rail is the only optics mount for AK rifles which afford them true co witness of a red dot sight and your iron sights. Bear in mind thoigh that most lower handguards need to be modified to allow the gas tube rail its proper installation. There is one, the Choate black plastic lower handguard ($10) that is reported by Ultimak to fit their gas tube rail with no modding. You dont HAVE to use the Ultimak railed forend, but if you want picatinny rails to use with a vertical grip etc., you will want it. Its bad ass.

CHOP SUEY! Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I'll probably trim down the hand guard i already have if it doesn't already fit, but im def gonna get on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOP SUEY! Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 Btw how do you like those tapco magazines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Break '92 Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 If you trim down your handguard do it slowly and grind FLAT. I ruined a Command Arms railed handguard with a Dremel tool. Remove very little material at a time and test fit every time to match the profile of the Ultimak barrel clamps. Tedious, but trust me on this one. The Tapco mags are legit, and fit tighter than steel mags. Tapco is real hit or miss though. Dont outfit your whole rifle with their shit. The only things I have on my AK by them are the vertical grip, that mag in the pic, and the G2 trigger group that you get anyway when you buy a Romanian AKM so it can meet 922r standards. I have a pair of the clear Bulgarian mags, and they are great but take some 'break in' in the way of how they fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNINE Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 anyone know where to get 7.62X.39 orange AK poly mags for cheap?. like the old russian ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qawee Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 they are made out of a material called bakelite, and you cannot get them for cheap, expect to spend at minimum $40-50 per magazine; they're more of a collectors item at that price range than anything else.

RUNINE Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 i was a gunshow about a year ago and some guy had abut 10 of them for $15 each but they were 5.45X.39 so we didnt get any. i knew they were rare but didnt know they went for that high of a price.

Qawee Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 the ones which are 5.45 x 39 are generally east german which are pretty common, the 7.62x39 mags are either Russian (rare) or Chinese (really rare). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNINE Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 any future trips i take to the middle east ill try to pick up some orange and black bakelite mags and send them home. ill have a lil fourtune on my hands. im also looking for flat stamped steel mags. not with the ribs like most you see today.

Qawee Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 pick some up for me too! The flat steel mags are usually referred to as slab side, and can fetch a premium as well. I'm not really into collecting magazines, but I'd like to have one of these Bosnian mags with the Fleur de lis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNINE Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 when i get a stock of bakelites ill track you down and send you a little care package. a gun auction i was at the other day had a chinese military SKS with the star stamped on the mag.

Qawee Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I've seen some Chinese SKS with a 20 round fixed magazine with a star on it, I heard it was for color guard/honor guard guns, but I dunno for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
