ok, i decided against the krink kit as i bought a mauser and a ton of ammo for it instead.
i do still wish to build a underfolder. I am looking to do this as cheaply as possible yet remain accurate and reliable.
i looked on the EE here but do not know what is an acceptable price for a underfolder kit.
am i better off trolling the EE or going through a website or gunbroker?
thanks

annyone want to sell me a underfolder kit

Copes is listing some  Polish underfolder kits .look to be in good shape. good price as well. Polish Aks are well made and are chrome lined.they also have mint, virgin Yugo kits. A bit pricey though

I think the days of a cheap kit that are decent are gone.  Are you planning to buy a 100% receiver are fold your own? Plus compliance parts. Have you built one before or ,are you a first timer? If so ,buy a Romy G kit to start. Copes has Hand pick with matching #s with G2 trigger for 124$ Its a good place to start. Then if you want more.....

i am a noob to building, however i have a FAL build underway as well as a 1919 kit, so i am not exactly a build novice. Im also a very DIY kind of guy so i have any tols i could need to do the kit, not to mention hookups with a machine shop, lathe, MG shop tools.
I just need to read up on AK builds in order to do it right.
im looking for a cheap but reliable build, that is all.

Underfolder buils are not that much harder. If that's what you want I say build it. My first build was a MD-63 and I definately think what I had to with the front trunion was way worse than that of the rear trunion.

My Yugo UF build (good bore), Kit = $109 , receiver = $85 (+20 for FFL), parts = $30, that equals about $245 for a gun people are wanting $489-$599.00 (add another $20 for FFL) for complete, built by who knows. Kits have gone up .....but you can still get one for $169.00 at a couple of places .....maybe cheaper if ya look.

sgt5th,

What kind of shape was the Polish U/F in?  I hope I did not stir you wrong by using MGS from your previous thread. Got mine from MGS and would use them again.

You could look for a Yugo underfolder kit on the EE that has a shit bore. Then buy a USA new barrel from Copes for $80.00

Reciever from Nodak is $90
Kit was $200
Rivet set was $10
US Compliance  $50

thats $350  

you can get a Romy kit for $100,  then find the underfolder kits for $60-$70,  but as far as quality the Polish kit is way ahead,  except the bore,  there is some crome chipping!!

Are all the underfolder stocks the same?  I have a fixed stock kit thats from a stamped Romanian and I also have an underfolder from a Yugo milled receiver.  I was wondering if I could do the build on a stamped gun by just buying a rear trunion.  I would think not, but they appear identical in pictures.

Romanian and Yugo folders are different, but I believe polish and yugo are the same,.....get a polish uf receiver and you can use the romy front end and the yugo folder.
