How to install Stock at AK 47
- Before stock mounting, prepare such installation tools as a vise, a stock wrench, a transfer punch, screwdrivers, and protection glasses.
- A traditional adjustable carbine stock features a fixed length.
- Unload the AK to make it safe.
- Fix the barrel in the vice, and start with taking the current stock off, moving it to its rearmost location.
- Start by putting the inside middle stock facing the left side, and insert the long screw to its backside hole.
- The rear socket of the receiver back can be burred at the edges, so use a bastard file to remove the burrs to make it easier to insert the new stock.
- To put in the buttstock may need significant pressure. You can strike a bit of the stock into a carpeted floor (not a hard surface). Note any striking is impossible if you install folding or telescoping stocks, as you may damage the butt’s mechanism.
- After the stock is inserted all the way into the receiver, drill the pilot holes for the screws in the tang hole exact center to a screw’s length depth (about 0.9 to 1inch) tang screws about a 9/64″ drill.
- Turn the screws with the screwdriver all the way hard against the countersinks in the tang to get the screws in all the way, sometimes you can drill a larger and/or deeper hole.
- The forward screw on a stamped receiver AK must be fully seated into the countersink to free the carrier spring support.
- Secure rifle holding, much torque, a big screwdriver handle, and a driver, which fits the screw are necessary for due AK butt installation.
FAQ
Conclusion
If you like carbine adjustable stock, verify local law before buying it, if it’s permitted to use in your state. If you use the gun for self-defense, choose PDW (Personal Defense Weapon) stock, which can fold to an even more tight size than the original one.
While opting for new stock, mind the habitual shooting condition, would it be mostly wet or not: select an appropriate housing material. It’s important to check out the fitment of new stock to a lower receiver at the manufacturers’ website beforehand as well. The new reliable AK-47 stock is a rock-solid alternative to the standard-issue gunstock to keep the rifle stable on a firing surface, while still amortizing some recoil.
