I was given a MAK-90 recently. It's in good shape. It has the slant cut receiver and a thumb hole stock. It has had the bayo mount removed. The muzzle has been turned down and unthreaded.
I want to ditch the thumb hole stock and put it in a configuration that reflects something more modern but still reasonably military looking. I don't care about having a bayo lug or threaded muzzle. What good stock options do I have? I have three other AK-types: an Egyptian AKM, a Bulgarian side folding -74, and a fixed stock Bulgarian -74 I built in .223/5.56. All are ones I assembled years ago on NODAK receivers using good parts kits. Any help is appreciated. |

I used a Magpul Zhukov side folding stock on mine. Works with the slant cut receiver just fine. Another arfcommer, IIRC emt1851 loaned me a tap in 14x1mm,Left hand thread and I tapped the barrel with it. Then installed an A 2 style flash hider for functionality purposes. Added a Geissele AKT trigger. It runs flawlessly. Also added an Ultimak railed gas tube and a Primary Arms RDS.
Super handy set up that a great shooter. I was not looking to make a clone of anything, just wanted an efficient and reliable rifle for multiple purposes. I succeeded in my goal. It's an excellent choice for things that go bump in the night. |

JMAC Customs and Desert Fox Outfitters make adapters so you can attach an AR buffer tube and stock to a slant cut MAK90.

You can go with a CNC Warrior/Bonesteel side folder. It works with both straight and slant cut receivers if I remember correctly. I have one on my straight cut MAK.

Yep, Desert Fox adapters are GTG. Had a milled Mak-90, which is even less common than a slant stamped Mak-90, and their adapter worked great for mounting a tube and magpul stock. Might take a little file work to make everything fit, but it is aluminum so it is easy to do. |

I bought a Zukhov stock. Even though the paperwork said that it would not work on a MAK90, it did. It's a very secure though a bit unattractive at the slant cut stock/receiver junction.

I’m thinking of purchasing a milled slant cut mak-90. I want the magpul folding stock. Can you post a pic of how it looks. Did you have to modify anything for fitment ?

I also have a milled MAK-90. Could you post any pictures if you get a chance? |

Back during Brady I had a Norinco "Thumbhole Monstrosity" (as they were often called back then) and couldn't wait to ditch the stock.
Now if I had one I'd probably keep it that way. It's embarrassing to say, but it fit me pretty well. |
