Droc Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 I was gonna post this a week ago, but arnies went down. I wasnt overly pleased with the appearence of the foregrip in thread http://www.airsoftcanada.com/showthread.php?t=26254 so I made up another one. I went for a more radical look. i had seen similar grips on the Beta spetz, but never on a full sized AK. It holds like a P90 grip if you were wondering. thumb through the hole. Feels awsome and swaps out with the other in seconds. Im happy with it, atleast for tonight. Link to post Share on other sites

Carrion Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 the foregrip is avalible as a stock part. if i remember its a romanian aksu forgrip if that has been home made its a lovly piece of craftmanship. Link to post Share on other sites
Droc Posted April 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 yah, its home made. A bit bulky, but I have giant hands so i made it to fit me. The foregrip isnt the same on both sides, its contoured to fit the left hand(for a right handed shooter). It was a second attempt after this one It was big also, looked funny, but again, I needed it bulky for my hands. Same wood with ebony inlayed for better grip. Im still playing around with more ideas and will be making more when I get the chance. Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 have you considered leaving the varnish off. i always think Varnish looks wrong on gun wood. Link to post Share on other sites
Docv400 Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Very nice... What wood? All done by hand, or what machine tools do you use as well? Have you considered making a matching stock, similar to the Dragunov one? Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Pics still not worky, which is a shame, as I really want to see this. Link to post Share on other sites

Tinkerton Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 the foregrip is avalible as a stock part. if i remember its a romanian aksu forgrip <{POST_SNAPBACK}> the foregrip is available for TM AK's as the Carrot grip. search on WGC (might be for the spets...) the Romanian foregrip isnt like that at all, its more like another AK pistol grip on the bottom of the lower handguard .

slacky Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Or the thumbhole grip from the Guarder AKMS carbine kit........... http://www.airsoftextreme.com/images/gif/akms.gif but yours looks like a very well crafted bit of kit -Mike Link to post Share on other sites
