Wanted: AK furniture in black - Pensacola

[Dan1612]

Got a great deal at TGD today on an AK-47, and the rifle is great, but I only like guns in black. So, before pulling out the Krylon, I thought I'd check to see if there's a set in someone's drawer or box of spare gun parts that they'd be willing to sell.

Thanks!

What did you pick up Dan?...

 

[Dan1612]

Brand new WASR. Mags fit tight, sights and tube are good and straight. Couldn't turn it down at the price.
He also had a MAK90, but I didn't care for the worn blue finish, and it seems that the WASR will be easier to customize and has potential as far as accessorizing should I decide to later on. Unlike my previous AKs and the MAK90, It'll also take a SlideFire stock.

If nobody has any and you don't plan on hanging a bunch of stuff from it check out the Hogue overmold pistol grip and hand guard. If you want to have rails M.I. has some decent ones for Ak's.

 

[Dan1612]

I like the feel and profile of of original furniture, just not the bare wood color. Ideal would be a set of original polymer furniture. It's an AK so I still want it to look and feel like an AK. Anyone ever use spray on bed liner on a gun stock?

 

[Django]

If that's the case, I would take the wood furniture off strip and sand off the finish and make it what ever color you want and re-seal it. Unless of course somebody on here has a set in black that they will part with.

 

[Dan1612]

Yeah, I think I might try an Ebony black stain. The wood has a really nice grain on it that would be neat to keep. I'm thinking something like this:

Of course, if it doesn't work out, there's always bediner.

I'm sure that'd look good... You'll probably have to sand it pretty good and do a few coats to get it good and black

Great minds think alike! I was gunna say just rhino line it!

That stain would look cool if you have nice grain. Personaly I would worry about the bed liner peeling and getting hot in the Florida Sun but I have never tried it. Either way, looks like a fun project.

 

[Aaronious45]

I'd deff try the stain. If u do the bed liner, just sand sand sand. Prob with a rough grit to give t something to hold onto

Makes me want an AK again to play with. Maybe a pisrol one with a brace. Have you shot it yet?

I check in a few minutes, but I think I have a complete set I'm not using Dan.

Please do, Sir. That would be really great.

 

[donr101395]

Sorry, just a stock and gas tube cover. The lower handguard is missing.

I really appreciate you looking. Ill keep that in mind if I decide to put a rail on it. Thanks again.
