    Switched to Wood on my AK

    I know it's not the best and the colors differ from one another, but I removed the plastic furniture off my Saiga AK 47 and went with Wood. I hope its still compliant I was told it was, I left the Grip on...it just feels better in my hand.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Yes....I agree ! I had the Black Polymer on it since I bought it new close to a year and now found this wood on GB and I just added some more Red to it from reading the past post here on this thread and youtube. It had the holes for a Butt Pad and I order one on Amazon and it fit okay. It needs a little trimming, but this AK will be used at the Ranch so it will have character a few months from now.

    Wood looks Good!
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?
