Wildgoose:
I built this M92 Krink kit a few years back as a pistol to save a few bucks. I used the original UF trunion so that it could be easily converted if I decided to SBR it someday. I think it may be that day. So I need to get the paper work started. Somehow I dont think that I need to hold my breath on the wait time. It took quite awhile for my last stamp and that was several years ago.

Sweet!  Did the Krinks ever come with a side folder stock?  I've always thought the triangle side folder looked like it would give a much better cheek weld.  You know, to wring out that last little bit of legendary SBR AK accuracy  ;D.

Nope, just the standard UF. This 7.62x39 M92 actually is pretty accurate even being butt stock challenged. I have seen a couple of them done with the Bulgy style side folder. Right now complete M92 kits with original barrels are going for $1300 to 1500 and finished rifles are totally out of sight. So I want to keep it stock just for value reasons. Always did think I would go ahead and SBR it. The pic is sixteen rounds off the bench at 100 yds.

 

FarmerRick:
Nice looking gun there.

I have a Draco pistol that has the UF trunion too.  I was planning on eventually converting mine sometime in the future, until I held an underfolder WASR-10 last weekend.  When holding it in firing position, I noticed that I would have to use a "jaw weld" instead of a "cheek weld" in order to even see the rear sight as the stock seems to drop at quite an angle away from the rear of the receiver.  Since this was a Century-built gun, I'm not sure if this is just a case of one of their legendary messed up "monkey-built" guns, or if all underfolders are like this. 

Not trying to derail your thread here, but have you fired an underfolder?  If so, is this "jaw weld" necessary on all of them to line up the sights?  After last weekend, I'm thinking my little Draco might just stay a pistol.

bkoenig:
Rick, I've seen a lot of guys bolt an ace sidefolder to the rear of the trunnion on the Draco's.  They just drill & tap it and it seems to be plenty strong.
