First off, I have a New (current production) Romanian AK-47. It has a horrible trigger and terrible sights. It is not an accurate firearm, not for me anyway. I like it a lot, and i was thinking about doing some things to "accurize" it.
I know theres a bunch of threads about parts compliance and what not. But i always get confused reading them since it seems like everyone and their mother has a different opinion about whats legal and whats not.
Correct me if i'm wrong, but the way i understand it, there can not be more than 10 of the original imported/stock parts on the rifle if i want to change it from its original/stock configuration.
So that means that on my Ak i have to change out atleast 6 parts?
I see that tapco has a kit that will replace the pistol grip, the piston the hammer and the trigger. I already have an american made gas tube i can put on. So that means i'll have to find one more part to replace. I was thinking either the lower hand guard or a folding or telescoping stock. The kit will fix my trigger problem, but i'll stil have to fix the sights some how, or i can just go with a red dot, which i'd like to play with anyway.
OK, to sum it up:
1. Am i correct in assuming that i need to replace 6 parts on my AK?
2. Will i beable to do the work on my ak myself, at home, with hand tools?
3. Is tapco a quality company? Or will i regret subing out my stock parts with them? (please actual expierence only, thank you)
Thanks,
Chris
