I just got a contract to build 12 Yugo under folder full autos and 12 full stock Yugo full autos. These will be blanked and used in the movie industry. I need photos of the AKs used by Iraq. I'm going to try to build close copies. Any pic will help. Post them here or e-mail them direct. Thanks, Troy P.S. These will be after the SEAK project.

I don't want to crap in your thread, but I have a question or 2. How come the movie industry gets to have brand new AK machineguns? Is there really a shortage of AK type rifles out there? Do they get a pass on the "demo letter" requirement and I thought they were supposed to be for a gov agency or PD? I also understand that this would probably go from C2 to C2, but I still thought there was a demo requirement. Maybe they are getting shipped out of CONUS. I see a lot of G36's and P-90's in movies, though. Where do they come from? I need to start my own movie company, hire John Woo then maybe I could get some cool post samples to play with. That's cool. Good luck to you. Glad you got the job. I'm thinking about a C2 venture with a good friend in a year or two. |
Don't you know, the rules don't apply to anyone in Hollyweird. |

My contact is a C2. We will just be the sub contractor. He can do most anything. He just dosen't build AKs. Most of the time he will get demo letters for new rifles. Usually only two peices. These are the two that fire blank. The others are usually resin replicas. I have the Yugos. I'm more interested in what the diference is in them and the Tabuk type rifle. |
You really are one bad motherf&%$er!!! Nice pic's..
|
The G36's and P90's and MP5's you see are probably airsoft, at least in some cases. |
| The two photos KF posted are the two sample peices we built on the DCI receivers and made "retro look." They have decided this is close enough. They aren't worried about markings. Just as long as they work. These should be good enough for movie work. What do you guys think? |
You should send them to me for a closer look and testing.

I was curious about the same thing, how that works... I do know, for example, that certain shows, say, Stargate (both SG-1 and Atlantis) is filmed in Vancouver, B.C., which has different firearms laws then here. This allows them to get post 1986 FA stuff. As far as other stuff that's filmed in the U.S.A., I dunno. |
Its just a MIRROR IMAGE. The pic was processed wrong. Hold up a mirror over your sholder and it will be the correct image, (typical ak). |
That's some cool shit dude!!!
