    Question AK furniture question

    Will the furniture off all stamped receivers fit all AK-47s like Yugoicon, Romanian, Chi-Com, Russianicon? I know there is a fit issue with the milled receivers but I don't need the buttstock. I'm looking for a wooden fore end and Bakelite pistol grip for a Yugo M70 underfolder so I can ditch the black plastic. TIA

    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.

    Yugos are the special ones here. Foregrips are a little longer, and fit is indeed different.

    Thank you for the quick reply. So I need to look for a Yugoicon specific foregrip. How longer are they? I'm on the hunt!

    I'm not really sure how much longer. Not much, but the fit is proportioned differently as well. Also, the Yugoicon M70s had an altogether different pistol grip. I'd check GunBroker, they have tons of Yugo parts on there. I'm assuming you have a Century underfolder?
