I'm thinking I'm going to change out my EAA Zastava PAP thumb hole stock to a normal stock and pistol grip. Yes, I know there are threads on how to deal with the slant cut receiver all over the internet. Trust me, I've been researching and reading about what needs to be done everyday for about a week now... Unfortunately, I'm just as confused as when I started researching the topic...

 

 

 

From what I understand, I have a slant cut receiver, limiting what I can/can't do. Online it says if I wanted to put a regular AK stock on it, I'd have to get some kind of conversion piece (something like: http://riflestocks.com/store/product35.html i think). Or I could get a Yugo stock, and it would bolt up w/o modification. When I try to search for Yugo stocks, all that pop up are SKS stock kits. 

 

I really want to replace the thumb hole stock with something like this: http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/product/AKS-032 -and- http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/product/3-1029164. A flat dark earth (sand colored) solid stock, kinda like an A2 stock.

 

What do I have to do to make this happen!? I'm sorry for bringing up something that's been gone over multiple times already. lol

You should verify with the mfg., but I believe this is what you need:

I wish I had bought one of those when they were 400

Ha!...when they first came out they were like $250!

From what I was reading, VEPR and Zastava Pap are similar but diff stock setups... Although, as I said above, I'm deff not an expert by any means on the subject, so I may've been reading it wrong... My Zastava's receiver certainly looks like the VEPR's though, so maybe it will... I'll deff give EAA a call bout it tomorrow morning

 

A search turned up this: https://www.apexgunparts.com/product_info.php/cPath/21_71/products_id/1610  It looks like the trunnion in Nick's post, but when I read the description, it says fits M72/M71b stocks, nothing about the receiver...

That's how much I got mine for off Budsgunshop about 2 years ago.

Now everything I'm reading is pointing to this adapter working, granted it's for a slant receiver, even though I'm positive I read somewhere that there'll be some kind of fitting problem...

I don't think I'm going to change out the trunnion. Might go this route:

http://riflestocks.com/store/product35.html - to the receiver

http://riflestocks.com/store/product29.html - to the adapter

http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/product/2-MPIMAG404FDE - to the adapter via buffer tube

 

Thoughts?

Do what you want but IMO AR stocks on an AK variant just look wrong.

just leave it be !

Sell it and buy something with a straight back receiver,  then do what you will to it
