Looks like you could eliminate the thumbhole and trim the stick down somewhat, retaining a "pistol grip". How about just getting creative with a jigsaw and sander. Whats the laws regarding conversion and parts etc. Mon Aug 02, 9: Tell me more about this "US parts stuff" I live in MI, if that helps. The spring loaded detent was still there and every thing worked just fine. I then put a proper slanted cut muzzle brake on. I was able to use my trusty dremel tool and cut the spot weld off. Mon Aug 02, Mon Aug 02, 6: Mon Aug 02, 7: As far as the muzzle brake goes, when I had my MAK many years ago, all they did to make it compliant with the assault weapons ban was to tack weld a threaded cap on the end of the barrel. That will allow you to use a bayonet if using an AK type brake. Only get options good one like from KVAR mak the 20 buck specials do NOT fit on the barrel.

This is mine Good luck and post some pics when you get her done As cut as the muzzle brake issue - best option is to get a Bulgarian 24mm threaded front sight block and replace the current on with that. Another option are the Choate sets but they have a skeleton type butt stock, but I believe they make a set specifically for MAK's.

I purchased the TimberSmith set made by Mak counts as 3 US parts - it required some fitting of the lower hand guard and butt stock to fit right but it came together nicely I believe. For wood options you can order from Ironwood Designs but the order process isn't as easy as it is with other sources. You can modify any standard stock set to fit on a MAK with the straight cut, slant cut you are going to have some issues. Pull the butt stock off and find out what type of receiver cut you have, slanted or normal straight cut. I'd like some links to some quality stuff. I also want to put a red dot on this thing, bayonet, and a muzzle break. I Hate the thumb hole stock, I'd like something polymer synthetic. It is currently Mon Jun 19, 9: Sun Aug 01, OK, so I purchased the MAK, I've noticed a posts stock the difficultly getting mak for this thing. The other alternative is to send me all of your unwanted slant-cut MAKs.View unanswered posts View active topics. Looks like it would be a hell of a lot of work, but I'm sure it's worth it to some: It should fit since the VEPR uses a 1.5 mm thick receiver, close to a MAK's 1.6 mm. If the slant cut look really bugs you, you can try one of these adapters for the VEPR, which has an even more pronounced slant, and file it to size. Many of the "fixes" to the slant cut look 10 times worse than the slant gap did to begin with!Īctually, If you use a AR15 style collapsible buffer-type stock, the slant is barely noticeable and more or less blends in with most designs. I guess the look bothers some folks (not me). If someone had an old stock from IWD's woodpile for sale I would go the other route (black, MI slick modular HG's, surefire 961, and a red dot).įunctionally, the slant cut on the MAK doesn't matter at all. If I buy a whole IWD set then I will go the classic look. You are correct sir I have the stamped Mak 90.
