I'm looking for some Russian accessories for my RPK.

Slings:
What color sling would be appropiate? I been told many Russian AK's came with tan. Does the same hold true for the RPK? Are the interchangeable?

Mags:
40rd and drums. I already have a chi-com drum, but I'm wondering if the Soviet drum is closer to the Romanian, Chinese, or other?

Pouches:
Anything special here? I found some Romanians for sale. Are soviets readily available?

Carring Cases:
I found a few available but they are pretty pricey. Looks like it would make a nice addition.

Anything else? The accessory pack included with the PMKMS and the addition of Blazeone1's photos has inspired me to look for correct accessories.

Well we both have Romanian RPK kits... I just bought the Yugo also!

I picked up 4 Romanian 40 rounders in the for sale forum and a Romanian 40 pouch on gunbroker. I still looking for a Romanian Drum Pouch. I've found Russian, Polish, Chinese and E. German, BUT no Romanian... WTF? They built the drums! I'm working on doing a trade that includes a Romanian Drum.

I would think the slings were/are interchangable with each countries standard AK model. I picked up a couple of what I think are Romanian 1 ½" green nylon sling.

The Yugo is what has me curious, I haven't really seen the 40 round mags that normally acompany the 7.62 RPK weapons in a Yugo flavor. Or 40 pouches, Or Drums & Drum Pouches... I saw some pics posted here of Yugo solders with slings on the AKs, but haven't seen Yugo specific slings for sale anywhere.

Did the Yugos use Russian or Romanian drums in their RPKs?

Do you have pictures or a description?

I've got six Chinese drums now and have ordered some more pouches for them. I've also bought two E. German drum pouches. They don't seem to fit the Chinese drums as well...

Found out where aresenal is #22 -Romanian- They fit with about 3/8" play on each side. Guess they where intended for rpd use, but like them anyway.
