The barrel, trunnion, bolt, and bolt carrier are ak-47. The receiver is scratch built form 1 1/2' by 2' rectangular steel tubing. The bolt carrier has a piece welded on the back of it for a m_60 return spring to connect to. The weld piece also has a slot machined into the bottom for an extended FAL hammer to swing into to strike a spring return extended AK firing pin. On top of the welded piece is mounted a roller that rides in the feed cam slot of aMG-3 top cover/feed mechanism. The gas tube is made out of a 12 ga barrel section and a larger gas piston is silver soldered to the original ak gas piston to give the bolt carrier extra push to operate the belt feed. The belt is MG3 which holds the 7.62x39 cartridge not as tight as a RPD belt.
The gas relief holes in the gas tube are drilled at the end of the gas piston stroke to make the system a long stroke piston, again to give the bolt carrier extra push to operate the feed mechanism. It ejects down low to the left and the ejected cartridges just miss the SAW-249 50 round cloth cartridge bag. Rear sight is K98. There is a front barrel extension fitted to the AK barrel to keep the pressure up longer in order to aid in operating the feed mechanism. The butt stock, pistol grip assembly and the forearm are scratch built. The fcg is FAL. Flash hider is L1A1. The gas port is drilled out to .187 diameter. The bi-pod is import RPK style. The feed tray is alto scratch built.
Haha, that sounds like that Johnny Cash song, 57,58,59,60 automobile. You know the one he carried the parts out every day in his lunch pail,lol.
