hey everyone, i have a future AK project in mind, and im wondering if anyone knows a place where i could have a couple custom parts machined for it?...
parts will include a custom front trunnion, with a raised section to hold the top cover and gas tube, no sight, and will allow the barrel to be free floated
a front gas block that will include a top rail for a flip up front sight
and a receiver-end barrel extension that will contain the locking lugs of the AK, and be threaded to accept aftermarket threaded barrel blanks
the top cover will be hinged in the front, and the top cover will have block inside it that will fall inside the rear trunnion and be pinned with a captive pin like an AR15 has, or have a cammed shaft with a lever for opening the top cover, so the rail will maintain zero and a flip-up rear can be mounted
anyone know anyone that can do this kind of work, and what costs they may charge?... trying to determine if its better to outsource for these pieces for a personal rifle of my own, or buy the machine to do it myself (i had plans of rebuilding an old bridgeport and converting it to CNC)
