    Default Need suggestions on best AK gunsmith

    Looking to finish up a few AK smithing projects. The issue is most of the gun smith's locally don't work on AK platform.

    Any leads greatly appreciated

    Search out Bloss Industries up in Blossburg, PA. Though he has been pretty quiet on the AK forums for the past year.

    Sorry guys didn't notice anybody had answered. I have a few projects going on one is a gas block on a Yugoslavian / Serbian m70. Which will definitely need a press

    The other project is a Hungarian AK that I'm thinking about converting from single stack to double stack if it can be done right.

    Is the Hungarian one of the old 2000's? If I recall correctly they are a very difficult conversion.

    Ack! You had to mention them. I converted one once, and I swore I'd never do it again. Was in therapy for months.
