Here are pics. Any help is appreciated.

Hodgepodge built on American receiver.

It looks like a Polish PMKMS with the trunnion markings shaved off and re-numbered.Is this the actual serial number?

 

[dalesimpson]

My first double tap ever...

 

[dalesimpson]

Thank you Stottman. Now that I know it is of mixed pedigree... What country is:

folder?
trunnion?
gas tube?
top cover?

The gas tube is one of the ones with the holes in it like the Chinese and Russian.

Dale,

Did you get it from Atlantic Firearms? If so, the kits are supposedly Polish. OOW or Armory receiver?

Can't really say...It's just a mishmash of parts. The trunnion might be east german? Folder might be Romy? Gas tube and top cover could be from an AK47?

 

[Stottman]

Milled folder (origin unknown), E.German trunnion, Milled/47 gas tube.

HGs look Polish..

I am going to guess that its a hodge podge of left overs from the PLO kits.. E.German trunnion, possible Russian parts for the folder gas tube, etc.

Bud,
I am sure there isn't a single Polish part on the thing. I have a Polish kit that I am almost finished building, and everything on this rifle is different.

Stottman,
You are pretty much confirming what I had suspected about the origins of the parts. The milled folder on the rifle is like a friggin' tank.

They are very ruggedly built, aren't they. :grin:

 

[CANDYMAN]

i vote milled leftovers on the selector and folder
on the rest there really isnt a good pic so it would just be a guess

 

[dalesimpson]

Here is an overall picture that I meant to post in my original post.


ETA I posted this same question on AR15.com and so far I have had a few good responses, but I also have got 2 guys wanting me to send it to them and another internet cop telling me that the rifle is illegal because of the Polish pistol grip I put on it.

US parts according to the Vector manual (in case anybody cares)

receiver
muzzle attachment
gas piston
trigger
hammer
disconnector

In my opinion,the parts count is your business! I see the milled underfolder,are you planning on leaving this one as is or are you going to try to put it back as close to original as possible? That East German trunnion is playing on my imagination! :wink:

This rifle is in my opinion a work of art. Vector did an awesome job on this rifle, and the fit and finish is outstanding. Not only does it look good, but now that I replaced the FSE fire control group they had in it, it's a joy to shoot too. For some reason the FSE fcg had slap just like a Centruy group.

I'd say it was from Salt Lake City. . . . . . .


PS-I think that grip is illegal as hell.


:lol:

Reciever counts as other compliance part, allowing them to add another foreign part, IE a pistol grip.

On the Yugo underfolders that have a US reciever AND US barrel, the muzzle attatchment and grip are Yugo because the US parts cover it.

I don't know why a troll response took me by suprise. I should have fully expected a piece of shit to have some bullshit to add to my thread. I should have known better than to think I could have gotten straight answers in a tech forum on AR15.com. That place is crawling with trolls.

yeah I read that over there. I don't know if he (POS) was kidding or what but I'm fed up with those jerks too. There are so many assclowns over there I rarely post on the AK side anymore.
