Is the flash suppressor tacked in place or is it easy to remove?

Does this have an underfolder rear trunion?


I'll let you know when mine gets here.

We need to get Manticore in this thread to make us some handguards. I'll probably fabricate some until someone figures out a better mouse trap for it.

Better get whittling then!  

Whatever we make would be metal or polymer, that I know for sure.

Cool, but I want wood handguards only.  I don't care for polymer or rails.

The Mini hotdog bun attaches in back into the bottom front of the receiver exactly like a regular handguard. In front it has a hole in the bottom for a screw to attach to a hole in the bottom of the fsb. The Micro has the same hole and a Mini handguard will work, it just needs to be cut down.

I have a couple of ideas rolling around.  I don't plan to do a vertical grip as in an integral part of the forearm (don't want to make it required to be an AOW/SBR just to use forearm), but will make it easy to add one.  I also like the idea of an integral handstop.



The main sticking point at the moment is, well, having access to a Micro Draco for measurements and test fitting- can't find one anywhere at the moment!  If anyone has a lead please shoot me an email or IM.

No way! I've got several AK projects I'll be working on on December.  One will be a fore grip for this and another will be a dual AK tripod mounted weapon system (shitedly built).

Have your FFL call century, I think their website has something there about being able to help you out, I mean they want your money and you want their gun, so it should be easy

Anyone you order from will require an FFL.  Make sure your favorite dealer is on file with Century and call them before they are all sold out.
