This is one of the best AK variants in my opinion... Lets see and talk about what you've got...
AK102 in 5.56 
AK104 in 7.62 
AK105 in 5.45 
SLR106 CR in 5.56 
SLR107CR in 7.62 
This is my SGL32-61 in 5.45 
...and my 106CR in 5.56... 
...also have an SLR107CR but no pics right now... can't decide if I want to SBR them or not... Let's see what you have, SBR's welcome!! |

I would love to have a 105, but that being said.....if I was going to do it, I'd probably do a 104 1st. There's just something about 7.62x39 in that package that I find appealing. I just got an M92 and haven't shot it yet, so that evaluation may change.

I too think the 104 is pure awesomeness and a slr107cr is very high on my list of wants.

My SLR107CR is my new favorite AK. I just need to get the barrel chopped and my CNC Warrior brake welded on. Then it will be perfect.

My new 106CR is back at Arsenal because of a canted FGB, a canted RGB and lots of jamming.
 . Good thing I have these to keep me company while I wait.

The gas port isn't in the same location so you have to either drill it at an angle to meet or plug the Bulgarian port and re-drill for the Russian. Personally I just all Bulgarian configuration.

Since I'm in IL and can't have an SBR, I figured using the Bulgy wouldn't be a big deal, since it couldn't be EXACTLY like the Rusky. I would've made me sick to pin that compensator to the gas block combo. |

I'm dreaming of a 105. It has an AKSU rear sight and a metal handguard with keymod on the sides and a long rail on top. XS sights.
But I'm not sure it could even be made.

A 105 with a krink rear sight is do-able. Been day dreaming about it myself. Just cut part of the regular AK RSB and weld the hinge part of the krink hinge block to it. Rivet a section of rail to the top of the top cover. I wanted to do all that plus a galil style thumb safety. The welding for the hinge on the RSB would take some work to finish and make look nice, but shouldn't be hard for any decent builder. |

Who would one go to for this? haha no sweat. I was going to run the project by Matt Yeamens when the time comes. He's a good AK builder that seems to be more than willing to do custom work like that for a decent price. His website is pretty sparse, but his work has a good track record. He did a reweld build for me that came out real nice. http://www.mygunsnorthwest.com/ |

You'll also then need a Krink FSB, because the rear sight is made to work in a slightly higher plane to get above the hinge. Any competent AK builder should be able to do this work. Rails and stuff are easy from there. |

To make it 105 length and do it that way you'll end up needing a custom gas tube, because neither the krink one or a regular length one will be long enough. Then you'll have issues with the length of the handguards (I think it would just look weird with krink handguards.. like a stretched krink). The hinge welded to a regular RSB just seemed like the solution with the least amount of hassle. I've been trying to see if the krink FSB would be a direct replacement for the 105 one, but don't have a 105 around here. |

I was building a super short pistol, so I wanted to use the Krink sights on AKM everything else. I found that the front sight pin for the Krink front sight was at a higher dimension above the centerline of the bore than the regular FSB. I think they raised the sight plane to get it above the hinge. With the one I was doing, I used a regular AKM gas tube I had ground down to fit into the rear sight block of the Krink. |

Maybe they had some to get rid of? This seems like just a bunch of parts put together like most really cool bulgarian concoctions. It doesn't have a pistol grip reinforcement plate so maybe the hungarian grip gives it more support? I hhave seen bulgarian aks74 without the plate too though and black furniture so who knows? |

That's pretty slick, if it wasn't for the U.K.'s gun laws it would be that much sweeter, but question: I like the look of the worn finish, it adds a lot of character to the rifle, but did it come worn like that or have you been using it quite a bit? |

It gets used a lot!, my local range is pretty close by and I spend a fair bit of time there.That said I don't think the finish is very hardwearing, the finish on my Dragunov SVDS is tanklike compared to the Saiga.Just noticed it appears more worn in photos than it does in the metal, which is odd. |
