Ian's Customs: The Terrible Krinkov

[@swqrdwing13]

There is a joke in Romania: a guy was working at a bicycle factory and was stealing parts to make his son a bicycle. He tried to assemble the parts at home but no mater how much he tried, he was always ending up with an AK.

[@saszkagru4735]

There is also a version about woman working in a samovar factory in Tuła, Russia, that wanted to make herself a samovar. Of course Tuła i famous for both samovars and guns.

It had a barrel of about 16" and the stock was shortened and pared down a bit, as well. It weighed about 5-6 pounds and when you fired it a fireball the size of a pumpkin popped out of the barrel, followed by leaves and twigs 10-15 feet downrange dancing in the muzzle blast. I fired it exactly once.

Depends on what you want in a gun channel. But for sure Ian is the best mostly all-rounders. Add a bit too much politics and you get In Range, (which I definitely also love) and take away the faster pace and you get C&Arsenal, (I also love them, possibly more but the longer videos can be a slog).

[@mackattack0362]

@@john-paulsilke893 those are all good channels. I really appreciate Ian for the simple fact that he is here to information those who care about interesting firearms and doesn’t play into drama. But C&Arsenal is another great channel!

[@andersjjensen]

You've got to put this into serial production Ian. I'm hearing that the Elbonians are looking for something exactly like this. Perhaps a few speed holes in what's left of the hand guard, and you'd have a total winner!

[@1978garfield]

For the Elbonians it needs to be a pistol and full auto only to make it complexly unfireable.

I have one of the B3 air rifle with this folding stock. It is a side cock lever. It is a .22 caliber producing 550 FPS with 14.3 grain Crosman Premier Hollow Points. I bought this new back in 2018 for $100 but is a must for all air gun collectors.

[@Pcm979]

I won't lie, I'd kinda like to see footage of that intolerable muzzle brake.

[@BK45AUS]

Hell yeah, given that the Red October match he was using this in, on Inrange, had the small nut and it still sounded way louder than Karls AK.. some real nice fireballs and concussion.

Well hey, I have the links you want! 😛 Red October 2016 Playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLj9u4Ts2NpEv081_L89_F3HX0RWGtDgd5 The night stage: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6W0qqxopNOUipY Zeroing the sight: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqi9c52epa95mLM And a BONUS VIDEO that may be educational for anyone who’s puzzled about why muzzle flashes don’t consistently show up on regular daytime video footage, versus in the movies: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZ-yhqWIictpoMk (With the night stage, the camera is gonna be auto-setting its shutter speed / exposure time to be a fair bit slower/longer than in daytime so that it can collect more light from the generally dim scene; and as a side effect of that, the chance of the image sensor actually catching the muzzle flash during any given video frame’s exposure time window is much higher than it is with the faster/shorter daylight exposure auto settings. That’s at least my somewhat-educated understanding of what’s probably going on with the difference between how often you catch the muzzle flash in the day footage vs the night footage.)

Can confirm, short 7.62 with a brake makes the long range braked magnum guys complain about noise when it goes off.

[@neilis2405]

On my original BRN-180 I wanted to add a folding stock and ended up using an air-gun stock folding mechanism. I'm not sure it would have worked out with an actual AR but for the BRN where there was no need for a recoil assembly in the tube it worked absolutely fine. To quote the movie Apollo 13: "I don't care about what anything was DESIGNED to do, I care about what it CAN do."

[@georgeo309]

the most unbelievable thing about this frankenmidget of a rifle is that Ian didnt add a dong to it

[@cherrybomb9130]

Since the rifle came from an Romy “G” parts kit, I’m fairly certain that it already came with a dong, but he probably chopped and sanded it down to make it a shorter package.

[@fab006]

Is there even enough space on that handguard?

@@fab006 not enough for the dong unfortunately. Where the hand guard got cut off is where the dong would be and I don’t think it would be possible to fit it in anyways.

[@bones1x285]

Ian your rivets look just fine. I build and work on ak's professionally and I can say that those rear rivets are a pain in the ass to make look good. What helps is to paint over them. Rivets dont have to look perfect to get the job done. I've seen plenty of factory guns that look worse than your rivets.

[@ScottKenny1978]

Yup. As long as there's zero motion, we're good even for aircraft. Though aircraft mechanics do tend to be OCD about their rivets, the spec is pretty lax.

Aterro Arms makes a optic mount that replaces the rear leaf sight and it's pretty easy to install and requires no modifications either.

Most people don't bother with 922r anyway. It's mostly the big builder-shops who have to worry about that, pretty sure the ATF has bigger fish to fry than making sure your trigger is a shitty Tapco.

[@ScottKenny1978]

It's a pain in the ass. Want to use a 30rd magazine? Gotta change out a bunch of other parts so you have -at least 10 US-made- *no more than 10 foreign made* parts from a list (IIRC)

@@lucassolomon1079 eh, I made my PSL 922r compliant (IIRC) because I planned on competing with it, it was fairly simple and all modifications I wanted/needed anyways. New trigger because the original was gritty and nasty, new stock because the original was way too short. And that made 6 pieces out of the 16 on the list. I think I would have made some new floor plates for the magazines, on general principles. Would have been trivial.
