My almost complete AK-103 (not 56K friendly)

[ancorp]

So I splurged on another AK. No surprises there. The build is almost nearing completion.

External parts:
Cyma CM.031 base
Element AK-74 metal body
King Arms metal front end kit
ICS steel ribbed top cover
ICS bolt carrier
ICS trigger guard
MAG AKM bakelite
RS German flip-up AK night sights
RS SKS sling

Internal parts:
ICS gearbox shell
ICS gears
ICS metal bushings
Guarder SP110
The rest is Cyma (including barrel/hop)

Refinishing:
Since this model AK is not blued by the Russians, I decided to keep the stock flat black paint, but since the real one's is fairly glossy, I polished mine to some extent to try to match that look. Came out more authentic then flat black anyway.

Things need to be done/bought/changed/etc:
Some black polymer 7.62 mags
Smooth top, but flared top cover
TM or clone gearbox shell (ICS won't mesh well with TM clone hopup, resulting in 150fps instead of 400)
Element bearing spring guide
Another stock (to replace the broken one), but it's not that important.

On with the pics:











Can't end it without some gay gear pose, I mean c'mon, it IS ASC, ain't it?

Heh, that'd be all for now.

Thanks for lookin'!
Cheers,
Alex

Wow Ancorp, nice! Yet another wonderfully budget AK that still shines!

[ancorp]

Thanks mate, I knew you'd like it! It sure needs a TM gearbox shell...

[ColtFarmer]

my many AK packages for sale have TM shells... hehe

you AK whore you, nice work (as always) NOW make an AN-94! put your skillz to tha teztz

[Lakonian]

Alex, ya bastard. I'm going to steal your AKs.. ALL of them.

[ancorp]

Thanks gents. AN-94 is not like this build, where you just put a bunch of parts together and then work from there, everything has to be custom made, or from a parts kit (good LUCK finding one, anywhere in the world).

Kos, you don't know where I li... ah damn it. Fine, they're yours.

[Aquamarine]

Very very nice!

[attack-beaver]

i hope my AK looks even half as good as yours does.

As soon as I saw ancorp had made a new post with pictures of one of his projects, I knew it would end with me crying.

Thanks for the comments guys. There is a lot less work in this AK then there is in my AKM build (for which a big update is coming, the package I've been waiting for for almost a month, finally hit up my local sortation plant, hopefully here in a couple days). I still prefer wooden AKs, but this polymer look is starting to grow on me.

[Goodl2ussian]

LOL. wicked cat.

even better AK =O Like beaver said...hope mine looks half as good.

[yanhchan]
