AK 47 Show and Tell

[ThrottleJockey]

Very cool! There is a good site to translate the stocks art. I think there is a link to it somewhere earlier in this Show and Tell thread. There area a few other folks with stock art and words on their Yugo's as well.

Google labs has a translate feature.

No luck! I'll have to look around a bit more, or just assume its an acronym/initials for something?

Tebah: Murder; butchery; guarding of the body;

It is also considered a biblical name. J Tebah could be a first and last name, though i prefer "murder". Tebah according to the bible is in reference to the Ark and it's shape, like a tebah or bowl. I'm sure there are other meanings as well. The J part i don't know though.

Can anyone recommend a print publication that is dedicated to the AK (74 - if they are that specific?

One of the absolute best is "AK-47 The Grim Reaper" by Frank Iannamico.

"AK-47 The Grim Reaper" Book by Frank Iannamico - MidwayUSA

It's not cheap, and Midway is showing it currently out of stock, but it is one of the best books ever written on the AK-47 rifle. Bill T.

The picture with Saddam's AK is awesome! The first thing I did after getting out of the Marines was navigated to the 7.62x39 round.

Did you not like the effectiveness of the 5.56? Not trying to start a flame war, I too prefer the 7.62x39. Also, thank you for your service .

Here's my just finished Saiga conversion:

I started with a Saiga 7.62.39 and added a Romanian side folder, Arsenal 2 stage trigger, Tapco Galil handguard and SAW grip and a Dinzag bullet guide. Today was it's first range trip and I love this thing. I had been warned that the wire side folder was tough to shoot, but it's not at all. Today was a warm day for February, so I was just shooting in a shirt, with no jacket and we ran 140 flawless rounds through it.

The only thing I need to change is the Tapco Galil hand guard. First, it's very bulky and the photo does not show how thick it is. Then, after the 2nd mag, the front clamp popped loose, letting the handguard flop around. I tightened it up but made the mistake of checking how tight it was when I got home and the cross bolt sheared after just a bit of a turn. For now, I'll drill the mount and run a longer bolt through there until I can put a bit of cash away for a better handguard solution.

Other than the handguard, I really like how this turned out. It's accurate enough at 50 yards with stock sights (they'll be replaced too) and a complete hoot to shoot.
