RS AK charging knob ?
 
Hey guys,

I'm currently in the process of building my latest project; WE AK PMC.

I came across this picture and wondered where could I find this item ?

I'll need to grind down the original handle, drill and probably tap the hole in order for it to fit.

Thanks for your help !

And that is a Saiga

I know it's a Saiga; I was referring to the charging knob, not the gun itself. I was wondering if any Canadian retailers had that Tromix knob for sale / in-stock.

I'm pretty sure Saiga's are prohibited, so I can't imagine Canadian retailers would stock parts for them.

If you read correctly, that knob is for AK-47 AND Saigas ... it's only a knob FFS not a RS receiver.

The website says it fits on any AK charging handle - so chances are very good it is a straight bolt-on mod for your WE AK.

These guys ship to Canada;

Does it hurt to ask when in doubt ? The only good reply I had so far was from Kokanee, and btw thank you for the link.

http://www.tacticalaccessories.com/p...id_product=702 they have one and ship to Canada.
Funny how things work :) Not even a week ago I was looking for a specific AK part and bumped into this store. Looked around and thought: "Meh only tacticool stuff there. Not interested..."

Did someone say TACTICOOL!?

I was born a purist and will die one :)

Drake May 15th, 2013 15:12

I had a TM AK for years and never gamed it because I could never get comfortable with it; I warmed up to AKs when I finally started tacticooling it. Rails make everything better. :P

Another part of the problem with it was the small pistol grip typically found on AKs: I find larger grips a lot more comfortable (partly due to an old injury to my right hand). Aper and I are doing almost identical conversions (my old AK105 being reborn as a GBBR) and I decided to go "full Western" this time around. As a purist, I can pretty much guarantee you'll hate everything about it! hahaha ;)

I still remember Patrick being a part of "dirka-dirka" club with old school AK :) I guess he joined the dark side. Hey, I still enjoy tacticool VZ's and SKS with tapco kit (pistol grip/side folder) is comfy too.

Don't get me wrong buddy; I still love the old school AK looks, but with the team's standards and impressions, the PMC version will be a nice addon. Phoenix Connection was a nice team to have the dirka look as well :P I still have the team's patch on my patch wall :P

And honestly ... do you have a mancrush to still know my name after all those years ? hahahaha.
