Complete!

The Karabinek wzór 1988 is completed!


It's a fully featured Fienstein fear fabrication device.


The build below the cut:



This is Jim (standing) and John (sitting) of DNS Guns and Suppressors.  John is cutting the center support to facilitate the installation of the scope-rail.

Me seating my first rivet.

Countersinking the holes in the scope mount base.

What does baffled mean?  Trying to get the new center support lined up.

Setting the rivets for the rear trunnion and the scope mount.

John separating the barrel from the front trunnion where AK-Builder had left it...

Selecting rivets to install the front trunnion.

Setting the front trunnion.

A little clean up in the barrel journal.

Making the rivets on the scope mount base flush for mounting the scope mount rail.

Riveting the trigger guard in.

Magazine test fit.  PERFECT!

Jim pressing the barrel into the assembled receiver.

Jim moving the barrel back out a little to find the headspace.

It's a gun!


This was a lot more involved than making an AR.  Very satisfying!

Thanks to Marv for taking most of the pics and my readers for their generous support!
