Ok so I really like pistol caliber rifles and I have been reloading 45 acp so that got me thinking:
Has anyone ever made a 45 acp AK?. Interwebs search yield nothing but dead ends.
So.how hard can it be?
The 7.62x39 casing rim is 11.3mm, 45acp rim is 12.2mm per Wikipedia.
Shaving off .45mm of the bolt facing should allow for the 45 acp to be gripped and extracted.
A 45 barrel will have to pressed into the AK trunion.
Then the mag well modified
Making it feed and cycle will probably be the biggest PITA.
Especially since I don't have a hotbox and my neighbors would freakout if they heard gunfire.
Am I one the right track?
I'm I missing something?
