Handguard swap

[Lemoncade]

I have a Bulgarian krink kit. I love the Russian wood and grip, so won an auction for the set.

The Russian upper did not come with gas tube. I don't want to ruin my bulgarian set, so what are my options?

The Russian grips are the vented ones. Any place have the gas tubes in?

Can I use the krinkov gas tube from k-var?

I don't really know Krinks but I assume it's about the same as a full size AK.
You should be able to take it off without cracking just takes a little patience
There are some threads here on that here's one I remember

If I'm misunderstanding the question or the Krinks my apologies

You have a nice Bulgy wood Krink set !?!?

I know they exist, but the majority are shit (mine sure is).


I do not understand about the Russian "vented" handguards (when it comes to Krinks)....????

Thank you for the link. Very helpful. Thank you for the compliment as well.

I'll add a picture of both sets of wood. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/02/02/uma9ygyn.jpg


The top wood is bulgarian, bottom russian.

1 grip bulgarian (black) one tula and one an older russian I don't know much about. And, this could be inaccurate as well, it's what I was told. I'm no expert.

Can't wait to use these Silver Bear rounds, but I fear it'll be a year before I have this built and SBR legal. I'm hoping its worth the wait!
