    I'm putting in a form 1 on my WBP Mini Jack to SBR it and am looking for a good AK gunsmith that can cut the holes for an underfolding stock. It already has an underfolder trunnion in it.

    Thanks

    Not close to you I'm guessing, but one of the lead gunsmiths at Zenith Firearms "D.E." is an AK enthusiast and he's very good. He's done some AK work for me (mostly to repair things other "gunsmiths" have messed up).

    Fourth for Duffy's. John built my AK from a receiver and a Russian parts kit. It looks great.

    Have you gone through with the form 1 + underfolding stock? If so what was the OAL of the firearm with the stock added, and did you have to pin/weld a muzzle device on the firearm to meet the 29in mark? The reason I’m asking is I just bought a mini jack and was planning on doing the exact same thing with the underfolder kit from apex gun parts. Ideally I won’t have to pin/weld a muzzle device but it is going to be super close to that length requirement.

    John at Duffy's has done a bunch of custom work me and it has always been excellent.

    Nothing is more fulfilling than doing your own build. From crushing rivets to learning the tiny little tricks of the trade that make completion smoother, then firing the first working shot. Conversion to a underfolder from a pistol, with the underfolder trunnion already installed is a very easy process.
