an RPK kit waiting on the NDS receiver to build it?

I have a plum 1988 kit

 

[MrKrink]

I have a Yugo M72 fixed stock.
Working on a Yugo M72 underfolder right now

Ive got an all matching Romanian RPK-47 kit just standing by. :sad:

Damn Sturm, you have some nice stuff. Thats a Bulgarian kit right? Are the plum stocks on those Russian or did Bulgaria make them? Id like to build a RPK-74 in the near future. A nice Bulgarian kit with a NDS-8 reciever would make a nice RPK-74. I got the 45 rounder waiting for a new home.

Thanks mohawk...

People will argue with you about these kits and that they are "Bulgarian" but they are as Russian as a bottle of Staraya Moskva Vodka if you ask people who know what they are talking about.

The furniture w/o question is Soviet/Russian. Original Bulgarian RPK-74s were manufactured using imported Russian parts until they could get their own production running. If someone can show me proof of Code 10's manufacture records of when they started building out of their own parts, then I may change my mind.

I have one new Bulgy plum 5.45 RPK, two mint Romy 7.62 's and one Yugo M72 that's receiver should be here any day on!! DCI has THOSE done. Now I'm just waiting on the Romy 47 and 74 RPK receivers. :mrgreen:

 

[MrKrink]

OK...my underfolder is done!!

 

[TheRealSundance]

I have two Rommie RPKs waiting. Would love a 74, but damn, that's a lot o' money.

I really like those plum kits. As soon as Grove puts those on sale one is coming home. Come on Todd - Big sale like the M92's.

 

[Tomovich]

Travis..........he already DID put those on sale once! :roll:

Travis..........he already DID put those on sale once! :roll:

What $25 bucks off? :grin:

 

[Tomovich]

:lol:

Yep, something like that!!

WHAT, you mean a hair under $1000 for a USED plum RPK doesn't sound CHEAP to you?????

His prices are why I bought my new RPK 74 kit from K-Var and will have to assemble and headspace it myself. I'd love one of those used plum kits from Todd............. :sad:

:wink:

Not a difficult way of serializing the sight leaf for them I guess. Scribe the bottom of it and keep on going.
