Then you go out shooting once, twice and suddenly you are no longer that much sure that 'the rifle is fine' – somehow this and that seems like it would use a bit of tweaking, after all. So you buy another one, while they're cheap, and start to plan your campaign. You may either go the whole hog and create an all-metal encased Frankenstein monster, or conversely, feath- erweight it and make it svelte. Yeah, all right, that's one thing you are NOT going to get out of an AK or a clone – but you get my point: "light mod"-style. Been there – done that, and now that I'm stuck with a bunch of AKs (milled receiver version of what the ever-knowing-better Americans christened the 'AK-47') and AKMs (stamped receiver version there- of), when the Polish distributor of the Tdi Arms, the Sprzetmilitarny.pl proposed us two mod sets to test and evaluate, I gobbled them both and put them on my guns. One was for the 'all-inclusive' (or Frankenstein) mode, while the other was bare-bones 'essentials-only' (or 'light- mod'). In this Part 1 we are going to focus on that lat- ter. The Host The host to put all stuff onto was the AKMS stamped receiver underforder by Fabryka Broni in Radom, civilianized by the Warsaw's Top Gun company. Top-quality firearm as far as AKs go, ele- gantly blued, and with classic wooden handguards. Departing from that, I started to put the bells and whistles on it. The Stock Adapter As I mentioned, the host was an underfolder, and this kind of stock was not the particular success as far as the assault rifle stocks go.
