FPK dragunov

[Planning]

the other day i was digging in another one of my safes and saw these in there.
i have been trying to buy one of these for over a year and i am on several waiting list..........i forgot i had bought these.

they are marked FPK DRAGUNOV made in romania. (someone posted this was before romac-3)

each has a leather sling, leather cleaning pouch, cleaning kit, cleaning rod, oil bottle, each had 1 mag.

one has a bayonet lug and a bayonet.

i have a canvas bag with 4 new mag in it.

each has a scope with mount. one has a canvas scope bag.

[kevin]

century and SOG had them a while back, i ordered one and got one right away from SOG, CAI had 54r and .308 listed on their website just like last month, im too lazy to see if its still listed at CAI

[weasel_master]

Those are some nice looking rifles.

[nalioth]

Not sure who or how they were named, but those are also sold under the names of Romak 3, Romanian Dragunuv, PSL, and FPK.

Aint capitalism wonderful?

[Otis61]

I really really want one of those. I've wanted one for about 16 years. They're such good looking rifles. I'm seriosly thinking of getting on the list at centerfire for a kit. Do yours shoot well? You just found them so maybe you haven't even shot them yet.

[wonderwolf]

AHHH NOT AGAIN....MUST RESIST...those are very nice looking rifles however. I wish I could "forget" about some of my purchases then find them years later..it would be like Christmas

:bash:

[tanstaafl4y]

The entire AK family is good looking but that is an exceptional rifle.

[texlurch]

I wanted one for the longest time, but they were always sold out or too pricey. I finally built a 308 Saiganov clone, but plan on getting one from CFS to build now.

Ron, have I mentioned I hate you lately? LOL!!!!!

[Otis61]

texlurch. What did you do to your saiga?

[texlurch]

Somethng like this... did I mention it shoots good?? :rockon:

[Otis61]

:rockon:
Wow the mag is the only thing that resembles a saiga.Did you do all that or where did you have it done? 308 right?:jumping:

:thumbup::1087:

One of these days I may mod some PSL mags to see if they will feed.. I have an M14 mag in the works...

[okie shooter]

I think he even made one of his own us made parts for that one, didnt you make the mag base plate to get enough us made parts on that thing for compliance.

[kevin]

a guy on surplus rifle modded 20 rd saiga mags for his PSL, he then put US parts in it to be compliant

[texlurch]

Yeah, I have two mags with homemade baseplates.... the 16" has a lot more mods, but I don't want to whore up Plannings thread anymore... :)

go for it. i just wanted to show a couple of my rifles. i may even dig out a few of the real ones (DRAGUNOV) someday. ( i don't know what safe they are in)

[Rampager]

Those are really nice guns. I have a PSL SSG-97 from IO. Got the 6 power scope on mine. Shoots great and has never even given me so much as a hicup. I shoot light ball in through it, both 7N1 (still got a case) and Czech silver tip. Mine was very blonde, even blonder than planning's. I refinished it in more of a russian SVD red tone, matching the red grip plate.

CRS is a biyatch, ain't it?? :icon_mrgreen::sleepy:

[nevada]

What a problem to have, sooo many safes with soooo many guns in them that you don't know what you have. That would be like year around christmas.
I'll visit safes 15 thru 28 this year and see what's in them. Oh look! I DO have a BAR. What's in that warehouse? Oh yeah, 15 tons of ammo. I need more.

The green monster is loose. (JK)

:zombie: :zombie: :zombie: :zombie: :zombie:

you know i had a couple of the early bar's and i sold them. i don't remember why i sold them, maybe to buy some more guns or more ammo.........:airtight:

i think i opened up safe #31 last week, or was it safe #41 i really don't remember........:icon_biggrin:

ps: i hate christmas time..:santa: ..............birthday's......... etc...........

by the way 15 tons would only be 400 cases of ammo...........:wink:

[texlurch]

That's only half of one row in the garage, huh Ron? :thumbup::eek::rolleyes:



Capt. Ron's UPS guy just LOVEs him, BTW..... :2pistol:

[texlurch]

And since we are wandering around on this thread, here is the 16" Saiga with G3 sights and a Kobra.....

[SSwee]

Is Capt. Rons UPS guy one of the ones that has to pull a 12' enclosed trailer behind his delivery truck to carry all the packages?

Capt Ron,
Should I send you a copy of my 03FFL just in case? lol

SS

[jmikey]

Damn, every time I think I've got enough guns, Ron puts up something else and I start salivating again. Gotta hide the credit cards quick. Do not need to go buy a Dragger! Arrgh! I will not use the search function............!

[kevin]

here is the one i got from SOG

Only 400 cases. I don't want to be in Plannings neighborhood when the balloon goes up and a Hellfire hits that bunker.

On the other hand, if he'd put earth over his quonset huts and a sign on the road with something like "MUNITIONS STORAGE. cAPT RON COMMANDING" Maybe the army would make a few drops of 7.62 nato, etc.

[k98k792]

In case of national emergency,fight your way to Plannings! Look for the dead raccoons to guide you!:2pistol:

[turbothis]

lol!

I think they will be calling him for resupply, not the other way around... :bash:

Planning has a very understanding wife... and the last 2 UPS guys are still on disability for lower back problems toting ammo... LOL!!!! :rolleyes:

[okie shooter]

Do we all think its just the love of firearms that drives Planning, heck that stash is also the college fund for the grandkids, his personal retirement fund too. Heck I think he has a far better return on his money than almost any other thing he could have invested in. I think classic cars might out strip it, but if the SHTF they aint worth much though.

All of the above, plus he just plain can't help hisself...

His retirement has been covered a few times over.. the gun thing is just his hobby, and he is just like the rest of us. Weak in the will power department, but better off to take care of his urges.

Plus he has been buying and selling stuff since the 70's, and has seen stuff come and go most of us can only dream of! Story time at Plannings bunker is a good time. Plan to spend the day!! :thumbup:

[weasel_master]

My girlfriend is happy he lives in Texas and we're in Michigan.

I don't know. I wouldn't mind living right next door. Maybe some of that stuff would rubb-off on me.:wink:

I suspect your bank account numbers would be hitting a downward trend if you lived near Planning.

[Otis61]

Yeah. Well, they are already. Too late.

[SteelCore]

+1. I hesitated on one buy last year, and it was gone.

Capt Ron:

We're not worthy!:clapping::worthy:

[Otis61]

+1 To That

[wonderwolf]

I handled a romak 3 but have never shot one....I noticed that the stock was a little short and the scope was set really high so that almost no cheek weld was possible.

I really shouldn't buy one but I might not be able to help myself. How are these to shoot guys?

[kevin]

they shoot REALLY well!

[k98k792]

Trust me, you will like it.

[kevin]

and if you dont like it ill buy it from you for what you paid plus 5% and shipping

[wonderwolf]

Ok You convinced me...I'll start counting my change now...It might take a while as I just bought some 50bmg brass.

What was the standard scopes these were sold with? weasel_master and I were talking about these last night and thought they were 6X...Also do you recommend getting extra magazines for it or what?

[kevin]

im just using one mag, (10rds is enough for me) When the barrel gets hot my groups open up, but not really bad. I use it for precision shooting. With silvertip i was getting less than 1 inch groups (5 shots) at 100m with a bench. It was hard to believe.

mine came with a 4x scope. It works ok out to 300 meters, but for precision shooting i would go with 6x or 8x is probably best. Ive been looking for an 8x
They have some that are 3-10 or 3-9 or 4-10x but i prefer fixed mag
I half tempted to get this one:

http://www.kalinkaoptics.com/detail.aspx?ID=552

ive been trying to find out what exact reticle it has in it, because all the graphics on the site are all the same. I also wanted to know how the windage and elevation knobs are numbered but i cant get a strait answer, i think the people answering dont know english very well
