"Read Owners Manuel before use" should be fillrd with a epoxy or bondo.

I wouldn't get too cocky, the pistols are pretty new to the market to determine you guys are the only pair to have completed this project. |

I think I will do the SF also. Was debating what to do since I already have 2 other SF AK's, but the M92 just looks awesome with the SF
|
|
|
Looks good. I'm going to try and cold blue mine first and see if I can match the factory finish.
|
|
|
may have to find something like that rail for mine if I can't get an Ultimak conversions done.

Busted out the gunkote setup last night and finished this project. Also added a US palm grip. Blackhawk tennis bag came today UPS also. http://i42.tinypic.com/mis6w.jpg http://i40.tinypic.com/33usvo8.jpg The US Palm grip looks better than the original, do you find it more ergonomic? |

It is as good as the Tapco SAW grip, without looking fucking retarded...like the tapco SAW grip. |

Thanks guys, looks like I'll need to pick one up, never got too excited over the Yugo grip.
|

May i borrow this for the night? that this is stupid sexy nicely done!

How much does that 2 degree difference affect how the stick feels? Is it better to ignore the difference or remachine the back of the receiver?

I need your address so I can send mine to you. You did a nice job!
|
|
bumping this because i see a lot of pap questions on the forum lately.
|
|
Thanks ARIN I was looking for this post.
Please post some pictures with the stock folded. You rocked this conversion! |
|
Could someone give me a measurement from the end of the muzzle to the end of the chamber with a cleaning rod?
|
|
|
I got a m85 project too , one question I have is; whats the best option to deal with the bulged receiver? extend the stock latch or notch out the stock to fit around the bulge in the trunnion?
|
|

Hit up Comstock Rifle Tack. Its the "discreet heat" chest rig. I had him make me one in "bakelite" orange.
I think our boosters are the same. I got mine from ak builder if i recall. |

ETA http://i44.tinypic.com/11m3og7.jpg Finally got form 1 back to SBR, and finished this project. Still needs to be refinished, but here is a rundown. Wood was bleached, scrubbed and sanded. stained with rit, mixture of orange and brown. About 15 or so coats of truoil, 0000 steel wool between coats. Muzzle nut weld cut off, duckbill flash hider and detent/spring from CNC warrior added. Taiwan made sidefolder from akbuilder. I skipped the 5th rivet that would have run afoul of the serial. Had the holes from the stock virgin trunnion welded up. Cut the left side of the reciever, but not the right, and ignored the 4 degree/ 6 degree difference between the stock m92 receiver angle and a 101 sidefolder angle. the front latch has to be placed further down to clear the trunnion, so this extra 2 degrees helps in the end. folder latch holes were drilled and filed by hand. Also, the front latch spring is too tall to fit between the receiver and the front trun, so i unwound two turns out of the spring and reshaped it so that it would fit with the minimal clearance available up front. Its a pain in the ass, but doable. So, there you go folks, proof it can be done. As long as you dont mind skipping one of the rivets on the rear trunnion. http://i42.tinypic.com/2n0srk5.jpg http://i44.tinypic.com/1gllcn.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/m7rypt.jpg http://i39.tinypic.com/2i16o3.jpg View Quote First of all thanks for this post and great job on this project. Just last week I received my M92 for the sole purpose to SBR it and maybe making it quiet.. I've considered several stock folding options and to me the A frame is the most attractive and light option available. Unfortunately, this is also the hardest unit to be installed. I've looked at several AK forums but for some reason they are hesitant or don't like sharing information except for your post in the AKFiles. I'm not a gunsmith but I'm very handy and I've done my share of successful mods on several other units of mine and this is one that I'm exited on tackling. Surprisingly when my unit arrived at my FFL, I immediately realized that CAI have relocated the serial numbers to the front left of the receiver, just above "Zastava, Serbia" which eliminates the issue of the 5th. rivet problem. http://i835.photobucket.com/albums/zz278/MAD-MAX-D-1/guns%20misc/image-13.jpeg I do have some technical questions regarding the front latch and other details. Would you mind if I PM you for some of your knowledge on this project? Thx. Max |

Does anyone know if when drilling the hole for the latch pin for the retaining latch in the front of the receiver, Is it a must to remove the front trunnion w/barrel or can the trunnion be drilled from the outside without removal?
Also, can I just use a AK74 sidefolder rivet kit for the rivets needed to attach both front and rear trunnions? I believe that both the AK74 and the PAP M92 are built on 1mm receivers... Thx. Max |
|
MADMAXD1,
No need to remove the front trunnion. Drill and go. |
|
|
Freaking beautiful. I wish I had the know-how to do something like that.
|
|
This thing is freakin awesome !! I'd really like to pick one up but go with a fix wood stock. The wife gave me the go ahead and get one now its up to me to decide if i need a new project
