So...I traded into a very nice MAK-90 with a butthole stock (straight cut rear receiver)

Should I install ironworks or timbersmith furniture and an aftermarket trigger to bring it to full 922r compliance, leave it alone (the butthole is not very comfortable for my hand), or modify the original grip/stock combo into something more useable?

Does anyone here do the sort of woodworking/refinishing, etc. on the butthole stock/grip to make it like more traditional furniture?

I would prefer the latter if possible because the stock trigger is pretty nice. Also, the aftermarket furniture would need modification anyway to make it fit.

Thoughts?

Before you start shaving down that stock, LMK I have a 2nd bunghole stock if you want it.

I wouldn't cut the original stock.

Go with the Ironwood. I've heard good things about them.

And they are sexy.

And sexy AKs are sexier.

And you can't be too rich, too thin, or have too sexy of an AK.

I think I might.

I just hate to have to take out that smooth fcg and replace it with the unproven ALG or the *gasp* Tapco G2 Double Hook. Seems like sacrilege.

Maybe I should sell or trade these surplus mags for us-made magpuls and be done with it?

Give me a call sometime, and we will talk about that MAK-90. And get this done w/ the least amount of effort and expense...
