SR3M KardeN Style

... year so some two thousand, at one event, the so-called "big brothers," I saw them the next rogue tricks. This strange device like a machine known speakers, only had detachable silencer. The name of this miracle has put me into an abyss of painful reflection, as the abbreviation SR3M     supposed relationship with a gun CP3 on which the new Wunderwaffe no means looked like, and it was very similar to the automatic VAL

I dare say that I have made on   Hot on the heels of telephone - the photo was probably the first in the open spaces of the Internet ...

  Several years passed, and that thing got to mere mortals. That is up to our squad ...

On closer acquaintance I personally did not like the front handle. Though she had to blend in size forearm, but not everyone likes such arms, and front grip at all.
But the most pressing problem was the installation of attachments - light laser sights and reflex scope. Besides setting sights with the use of brackets for AK is fraught with significant displacement of the axis of sight set on the longitudinal axis of the weapon ...

Simplest   way to install lights seen in the use of clamps for mufflers made by "Zenith".
But there was another way. Since SR3M modified with straps do not see us as their ears, at least in the near future, the output is seen only in your own installation.
As always came to help savvy and firm Zenith.
Was manufactured set of short and long planks that were mounted on the fore-end staff ...

Now you can set the lights and even the collimator sight ...

In principle, the best option in terms of minimum interference in the design of weapons. You just drill a few small holes forearm ...

Due to the lack of play (at least on our machines) and the presence in the structure of the forend metal frame stability STP, as applied to this class of weapons, more than the ability to use weapons dostatochna.Poyavilas stock folded that the use of sight, mounted on the side of the bracket was, would be very difficult.
But what about the grip? Forearm need a new design, which closes the trunk and the gas chamber on all sides.
Naturally wanted to create a forearm is called the "from scratch"
Certainly the preferred material   - Aluminum alloy. But it is not a file to sharpen same?

But who will undertake this work? Luckily, I know people who know other people.
Who can help me to realize my plans.
Translate well to say the dream in the metal.

And such a person is found.
Intelligent guy.
His head and his hands grow from the right place.
Medulla can use.
Required   skills and tools - are available.

Here are some of his works ...

Was worked out and approved by the general voting sketch products ...

Was solved and the problem with fitting formed forearm on the gun ...
- Because ... I have friends who have friends ...
and thank you, and both, for what they are ...

So - the forearm is made of milled aluminum alloy D16T ...

Brought a lot of problems fitting forearm as machines used during the procedure, had different geometrical dimensions of the bearing surfaces.
In other words, on one machine dangled forearm, and the other was set with a force ...

Installed on top of forearm strap for red dot scope.
It does not prevent aiming with regular iron sight.
To speed up the process of making forearm were used original plates from the "Zenith" ...

On the sides of the forearm are two short strips install a lamp or lamps.
Or sling attachment ...

Well, to make the already exclusive tsevyu personality to the surface forearm suffered my favorite smiley ...

We leave it to the master:

  ".... even   fully   proven,   tested,   inscribed   in   history    feats   and   Win samples   weapons    have   one   lack the moral   outdated. Time      cruelly   makes   We refuse   the habits, and go   forward. System   fixing   RIS,   which can be used   significantly   increase efficiency   weapons   for   account   attachments   Appliances   already   was   norm   and binding   requirement   to   Firearms   Arms.   USSR   was   superpower   whose   military     power   and scientific potential   opposed   all   west. Country councils   was   destroyed, and   all achievements   were   pillaged and plundered,    what   that   we   lost   it is impossible   calculate   those accumulated knowledge,   those   samples   and   brilliant   ideas   received   sweat and blood we   will not return. Collapse, destruction, hunger, and   poverty, it is   synonyms   of   time   what awaited   ahead.   Some   "Fragments"   erstwhile   Empire   steel    no   just   problem   but rather   cancer   tumor that threatened   destroy   all   wipe off   fully   our   country.   And   only   narrow-minded   man   can   say    any   conflict   one can   solve   Peace   by,   not so. Only   by force   one can   pacify   breath   new   time, and    thousands   Peaceful    lives     already   were brought   a sacrifice   new gods.

Simple   Army   despite   on   all the power,   designed   for   fight   with   clear   opponent   was   powerless   against guerrilla   action. In the case   come   best   of the best,   Special Forces.

For   execution   set   before them   problems   does not fit    usual   Army   weapons   specially   creating new   samples.   Lighter,   accurate, comfortable, quiet.

SR3M,   one of these   samples   created   on the basis of   rifle   BCC   is   logical   development   AU   where   refused   for   reduction   size and   masses   abandoned   integrated silencer.   Because of    insufficient   funding   modification      under   modern   needs    delayed.   A   each   employee   always   will   seek   improve   his   working   tool.

SR3M not   RIS has   slats.   The simplest   output   was   put mount   the standard plastic    forearm,     practice   showed    that this   modification   does not fully meet     all the requirements. Pivot   no   enough   tough   despite   out    inside   reinforced plastic   steel   plate. On   loads are not calculated   and with   time will   backlash. It was   decided to make   new   forearm.   Choice   fell   a trusted   duralumin   D16, the    material   already   many   year   applied   in   aviation. Material   easy to   to   by contrast   of plastic it is not affected,   change their   strength   properties   at   very low   or    high   temperatures.   Analogs   this   Alloy   already   long   apply   Western arms makers.   But   of   material   easily   processed, and   for   manufacturing   from it   details    do not need expensive   equipment.

The design is   yourself   U-shaped Wholly   detail   almost   fully   apparently repeats   standard   plastic   forearm. Trims    attached with screws   for   top   and lateral planes.   There are   windows   for   Circulation   air   on the sides   made   sample   metal   for   relief   and   better   heat.    From below    performed    Removable   basis   for more   Fig bars.   All   rice   trims   exchangeable   possible   installation   additional brackets, different   length. Mount   New forearm   staffing,   for   his   installation is required   finish off   himself   machine.    Compatibility   and   interchangeability   Verified   installation   a few   different   samples.

As far as   successful   will   new   forearm - will show only    Practice. We look   waiting for feedback ... "

So - forearm packed, sent, received, unpacked, installed ...

On my rifle forearm established   with little interference - sufficient to eliminate rolling.
Its role in eliminating pitching is lower liner with bar ...

When pulling the two bottom screws 'ears' to sack, forearm "compress" the side of the front of the receiver.

The handle is fixed with two pins ...

Her seat cool prevents elongation bars ...

The handle of the STC.
Because of its shape prevents manipulation of the 30 round magazine ...

True, there are disadvantages.
When folded handle replacement stores possible.
Also impossible to remove the handle from the speakers 'ears'   foundation staff handles.

Handle RC-1 from the firm Zenith ...

When installing the light side of the transverse dimensions increase weapon ...

To avoid this   it would be appropriate to set the lantern bottom forearm.
But then there will be no room for the handle.
BEFORE    Available extension bracket B-16 firm Zenith was mounted on the bottom of the main strip.
And on it were fixed lantern and a small "zenitovskih"   handle   RK-0 ...

- Without a muffler ...

- With folded ...

It is true in this scenario was found one annoying feature.
The fact is that in this version is operated tridtsatizaryadnym store does not interfere.   A dvadtsatizaryadny rests on the handle. Because the bottom of the plastic shopping wider than metal.

Annoying.
- Oh well ...

Have to switch to the original version of the side mount lantern. And think about creating a muzzle device with integrated bottom rail for the lantern.

Well, "... something like ..." - says a friend of mine :-)
