    Great looking AK. How is the accuracy and range with your setup? Also, If I was to mimic your setup, how costly was it to do?

    Thanks...

     

    Runs like a champ....I probably have more in it then I wanted to spend, but money well spent...

     

    Saiga 223 cost...Got mine for 300.00

    Definitive Arms AR mag adapter, parkerize everything..450.00

    Conversion parts....? I forget...

    Havering barrel shortened, gunsmith ing costs...330.00

    Samson rail.. 100.00

    TWS....130.00

    Magpul CTR/buffer tube...65.00

    US PALM battle grip.. 25.00

    Rifle Dynamics adapter...? I forget...

    MBUS....100.00

     

    Other stuff I'm forgetting I'm sure..... I have only ran it 25-100 yards.....typical Ak accuracy...very happy!!

    I already completed my Saiga build as you can see in the AK section...Love it love it love it...

     

    But now the Golani is a different animal...

     

    Cool factor is off the charts to me!!!

     

    My suggestion to you is to join up at Uzitalk.com

     

    Read read read,,,,,I spent mths reading learning asking questions...

     

    Don't call Jeff til you have a plan.... Like I posted earlier, if you buy a Golani and the receiver is soft, you now own a parts kit...He will destroy the receiver in his shop...He wont be responsible for shipping you a gun that will eventually fail...

     

    Now CNC warrior will be running a batch of receivers soon, and they are IMI spec... DO NOT BUY!!! An ORF receiver without it being hardness tested with papers to prove...They are all over GB for cheap!!!

     

    Goodluck...Let me know if I can help ... Goin to run it tomorrow at range 14....Woohoo!!!!

     

    Just thinkin....They also have a Push to fire mod for the safety....My muscle memory from my AR's want me to push to fire pull for safe....A galil is opposite push for safe, pull to fire.... Jeff can do that mod also...The kit is expensive though... :)

     

    Jeff also does all the lightning cuts and all the correct Hebrew engraveing... To me its a waste of money on a Golani, but my Micro build on I will have the cuts and engraveing...

    Swaping parts... Ok a SAR has a 13" barrel with a shorter gas system...So Jeff will pull your barrel cut/crown to 13" then pin brake to 16.250"...But then you still need SAR length Gas block, gas piston, gas tube... So he takes your AR length items and swaps them for SAR length....Copy that?

     

    Galil/Golani can use a bolt carrier from any 7.62 AKM as long as its not a Chinese or Egyptian...Reason for the AKM carrier is when you run a rail for optics on the galil, you grind your knuckles with the up turned bolt handle...AKM has it on the side so problem solved...

     

    Mags...Be aware that the Uzi America AR mag adapter WILL NOT FIT INTO A GOLANI RECIVER without proper machineing...A golani receiver isn't made to IMI specs, so it will never rock and lock in....Jeff will take of that for you.... Jeff runs all mags before he ships back to customer....Yes they drop free... TITS!!!

     

    7.62x39 build... My 2nd golani is on its way to jeff to be built into a x39 build....Douglass SS match grade barrel, with some other goodies... Salt bath Nitriding etc...

    Yes mags will be standard European steel AKM mags.. Rock and lock...100% reliability, screw in SS barrel, superior accuracy, battle proven AK reliability!!!  TITTYS!!

     

    MICRO..... My IMI Micro kit is already at Jeffs. Awaiting CNC Warrior to release there micro receivers... My kit is a unfired left hand charge version with the spring loaded dust cover...google (Galil micro 699) When complete will have a 16" barrel with milled aluminum fake can....MORE TITTYS!!!!

    Golani.. 650-700

    New bolt.. 85.00  Century monkeys grind the lugs down and ruin them..

    Jeffs cost to build into a SAR, swaping my AR parts for SAR parts... 525-550

    Uzi America AR mag adapter.. 150-200...When you find them..

    Jeffs custom left side charge handle..100.00

    Bulgy AK bolt carrier...65.00

    Railed top cover... 85.00

     

    So probably 1500-1600?  But remember Galils are 3K plus!

     

    When you get a Golani built by Jeff it will run as good as a Galil or better!! 

     

    Just google  Tenngalil and read about the work hes done....

     

     

    I also have a Micro that jeff will be building as soon as CNC Warrior make the receivers... :)

  8. Posted

    How can you get one??

     

    Easy!!

     

    Keep checking on GB for a Golani, makesure the serial # starts with GLN.... The GLN receivers were made by Caspian, which seemed to have less issues with the heat treating... GAL receivers were made by ORF and had a lot of sub par heat treating...Be WARNED!!!  If jeff checks the receiver and its soft, he cuts it up!!!

     

    Call Jeff and tell him what you want!!

     

    Or wait til CNC warrior has Galil receivers in stock buy one then have jeff build you a gun...You will still need a parts kit so expect to pay some money..

     

    I have gotten lucky so far as my receivers have passed the Rockwell test....

    I had the smith pull barrel, cut/crown to 12.5" and then pin on my fake can that I made from 316SS. Its basically all AMD dimensions..AMD gas piston etc...16.250" OAL....

     

    TWS top cover....

     

    Samson rail that I cut some off top section and welded on a end cap... then had to cope it so it could slide off around the can...

     

    yea I'm good like that!!

    Thanks... It was a long 3 mths to wait, but well worth it....Jeff is one of the most honest builders I have talked with... He keeps you updated with week to week reports...

     

    My 2nd Golani is enroute to be built in x39 now... Douglass SS match grade barrel, all Salt Bath Nitrided...:)

    Just got this back from last week...I had sent my Golani to Jeff Miller at Hillbilly Firearms...The absolute best Galil/Golani guy in the country...

     

    Heres what he did...

     

    Check receiver for proper hardness...Rockwell 41-45... Passed!!

     

    Machine receiver for proper fit of Uzi America AR mag adapter..

     

    Stock was already welded...

     

    Convert to SAR dimensions... Pull barrel cut/crown to 13" pin brake to 16.250",  South African gas block, no bayo lug...

     

    I also had him do his custom left side charging handle..This mod was done to a Bulgy 7.62x39 AK bolt carrier....And the railed top cover...

     

    I still have the original bolt carrier/top cover...

     

    Fix front sight issues...

     

    Cerakote...

     

    Assemble run some rounds for weapons check...Set sights....

     

    Here it is... Shoots like a dream, balance is perfect....

     

    He will be starting my 7.62x39 Golani/Galil build shortly...

    the only thing that would make it better is if you were able to run an actual suppressor..

     

    Yea well thats why we all hate NJ and the communist ways... Like they say, cant complain if you dont vote...Well i cant move, so i aint complaining...I have the look, just not the function!

    looks good man! very cool.

     

    i do have a question though, and this is more general: whats the advantage of having a short barrel if we have to permanently attach something to it to make it the legal/non-NFA 16 inches? i'm certainly not knocking anyone, i'd love to have a krink type variant some day but i just can't justify the lost muzzle velocity and accuracy if its going to be the same length. on top of that on the krinks i'd be dealing with the AKs already short sight radius being shortened some more.

     

    just a question, cool looking rifle though :D

     

    Thanks man...

     

    As far as muzzle velocity and accuracy its a non issue on this build...this will be my 20-100yrd gun the 223/5.56 round is more then happy to work and be efficent in this setup...I have other choices for my DMR.

     

    Also theres a cool factor on this build...I like the look of a suppressor, but we cant have...So i have the look without the benifit. Barrel 12.5", plus added length of can..Now i'm still only at 16.250"-16.500" OAL....

     

    Its really not a krink at all...My 106UR is closer to a Krink, with the exception of the 16" barrel...

     

    I actually increased the sight radius by adding the TWS, and moveing the rear site further to the rear...

    no no... what I am saying is... the modifications that you did are visually different.. but you could have added a rail and all that without all that additional work.. it seems like you made the gun heavier than it needed to be... not an AK hater in any way.. I still have a Saiga 12.. for carbines I moved to the AR platform due to the ability to change roles of the gun on the fly... I have nothing against AKs.. I say all the time I regret selling my AR mag equipped Saiga.. but my deal is just that I modify guns primarily on function..,.. take the Saiga 12.. the chaos rail looks badass.. but its heavy.. and clumsy.. so the route I took was far simpler and lighter..

     

    nothing wrong with what you did.. my assumption is your primary goal was mostly to create a gun that looked a certain way...

     

    missed the part about the AR mag adapter.. they really make mag changes fast.. like I said really miss mine..

    interested to see it when its fully done..

     

    Right on...I see what you mean now...Yes its definetley a certain look i was after with this build, and i acheived my goal...As far as weight, i'm 6'5" 285lbs..(lotta gym time) .If the extra weight of a rail is gonna be a problem for me i have other issues to worry about...:)

     

    Hopefully at some point i can have this adapter installed to finish this build...

    not that the Impaler :) needs me to stick up for him but he is not a AK platform hater. he has restored and owned quite a few of the those but as any spring fling it passed and he moved onto more "exotic" :p platform...

    now to my main point>> as I said many times before if anyone have any question about saiga or clones, u should go (call) to see George from Paterson Gunsmithing . he graduated from Izhmash Gunsmithing school and has ton of experience

     

    No need to stickup for anyone...I know what he is capable of, i have seen and appreciated his work....

     

    Exotic? I guess?? LOL

     

    Now to the good news....Geroge is the man who did all my work!! (well barrel shortening, etc) Hes the man with the AK platform..

  24. Posted

    if you were going to do all that custom work.. why not switch over to AR mags... aside from feeling some of the things were more complicated than they needed to be.. the gun looks cool...

     

    Your first question was answered below your post...

     

    2nd...Complicated to you may not be to me...I know your the AK hater now and the huge AR fanboy!! LOL Its all good...
