New stock on my Maddi AK?
 

Hello all,
I have a post ban Maadi MISR AK. I picked it up used and it has a Dragunov style stock on it now. Can I replace it with a pistol grip stock if I use one of the US made stock kits? Any info on this would be great.
Thanks,
Jason

2rots...I don't think you can. I think it has to stay as some type of thumbhole stock...same as always though, i'm just answering the way i understand it to be. I've been wrong once or twice before...;)

Here's one i used to play around with...

Yes you can, you have to swap out your internal parts to American made:
