That's pretty good Texasrimfirenut.
I guess I'd like for the Ultimatum Deuce to come in sometime in January.
Been messing around with my AK's lately.
This is a Saiga I said I wasn't going to modify but the forearm I bought didn't fit what I had planned for it to, so I just put it on this Saiga tonight, it's not a permanent mod. The Bushnell Scout scope works really good.

This is my other Saiga. It isn't as accurate as the one above. Not because of the scope but it's simply not as accurate. IIRC it had around a 4" spread at 100 meters on the test target. The one above was around 3" or less. I don't recommend the Troy handguard. It gets too hot.

This was my first AK, the Arsenal SAM7 SF.

This was my first Norinco MAK 90. It has the milled receiver. A little on the ugly side with that stained wood. I thought about refinishing it. This one is said to have never been fired. According to the condition I received it in, I would tend to believe that. I have not fire this one.

This was my second MAK 90. It has the stamped receiver and is noticeably lighter than the milled. It was also said to have been unfired. I've shot around 30 out of it.

This is my third MAK 90. It also has a milled receiver. As you can see it's been modified with a buttsock and pistol grip. The original stock is not bad to shoot, not as bad as I thought it would be. The finish on these MAK90's are heads and tails above the rest. I'm referring to eye appeal, I'm sure it's no more durable than the Arsenal, Molot or Saiga.

This was my first Molot VEPR. The wood was "ok" and the forearm wasn't straight. The buttstock angles didn't mate up nice with the receiver. I was going to send it back but the place said they didn't have anymore to replace it with so I kept it. I decided to heavily modify it because of these reasons.

This is an unmodified Molot VEPR. This one is so nice and everything is near perfect with it. I'll never change this one. I've also never shot it.

This is my sledgehammer. The Molot VEPR 12. I changed the recoil spring to be able to shoot low brass ammo. I also added a buffer to feel comfortable shooting 00 Buck and rifled slugs with the reduce recoil spring. It's actually fairly accurate with the rifled slugs. This one is unmodified.

I normally wouldn't post this, especially in the rimfire section but it's Christmas so with the heck. Nobody is really interested in AK's on here seems like so I don't talk about them much. All of these are 7.62x39 except the VEPR 12 or course, it being a 12 gauge.
