Where do i get stocks for a Mini Draco SBR?

[Drakkule]

I am looking for preferably a folding stock, but i want the kind that you drill and tap the holes for. So where do i find these, i have been looking and can't seem to find anything that doesn't require changing the trunnion. Anyone have any suggestions?

most of the drill and tap ones are made by ace and then you add a non ak looking stock

if you want somthing that remotely looks like its any kind of factory on an ak you pretty much have some trunnion work

the only thing that i think can be done with little work is a vz-58 folder but im not positive about this

Easiest, most common, and pretty decent is an Ace folder with either an Ace or Stormwerkz folder mechanism. Drill and tap two holes in the back of the receiver is all that is required.

I'm going the ACE route. I think I might do another with the underfolder route just for fun!

You can get the folder parts from CSS STOCKS-SAIGA CONVERSIONS
some of the parts have a nub on the back that are made to fit in a different rear trunnion, but most people just grind that off cause the two holes will support it well enough.

Cool site, thanks. Anyone else?

I went through ACE directly, but you can probably find better deals on other sites

I am going the fixed collapsible stock route. I am just using what is called a pignose and screwing in a receiver extension off of an AR so that I can put a Magpul CTR on it.

Let me ask you this drakkula, what kind of look are you going for? Do you want to keep a traditional AK look or are you looking to go more of modern tactical look?

 

[Drakkule]

I have been looking at the aluminum ace folder, i know i don't like the under folder style stocks, but kinda open to anything else.

By the way i am starting with a 7.5 inch Mini Draco if that helps at all.

The rear trunion on the mini draco and the regular ones are pretty much the same. I am pondering installing a left side charging handle sometime down the road so I decided not to go with a folder. If you are not concerned with the look of a traditional ak, you can put ANY stock from an AR on it or any of the ACE or triangle folders. here is a good video that shows stock options:

Nice video...talk about too many to choose from!

Problem with that video is that it is just a mock up. Many of them would need some massive work with new trunnions, especially the AK100/Triangle side folder stock. Even my favorite of a Romanian/Polish/East German wire side folder would require a different trunnion with different holes, cutting up the rear of the receiver.

My understanding is that some Dracos and most Draco-Cs have underfolder trunnions (my Draco-C does). You would still have to make the holes for the underfolder stock in the receiver sides. I bought the C as a carbine (permanent muzzle device attached) and it has the Ace side folder on it. For me, this is fine for now. I'll keep it as a folder when I get SBRed since I'll want as compact as rifle as possible.

get the ace folder regardless as it's the easiest thing in the world to install. Like matt says, anything else requires some serious work. If you do like the fixed stock look, you can mount the ace folder to a fixed stock with a little work. A folding wood stock, though unorthodox, is easier than replacing and riveting in a new rear trunion. That's an older picture of mine above. I'm an ace fan. It locks up solid. I've hear people sometimes have issues with the push button folder, but the ace O.G. works really well. i'll see if i can find a picture of that folding wood stock thing...

 

[vitamink]

essentially you just cut off the portion of the stock flush that goes into the rear trunion. You then take 2 wood screws and attach the ace folder to the flush cut area. I personally think it looks pretty good.

This is the style i'm leaning towards. Thanks for posting. Where is the best place to buy the parts?

 

[MattCFII]

I think I got the best price on my Ace stock at Midway. I got the folder mech from Stormwerkz. It is a few bucks cheaper and locks when closed.

You might also check out the Tromix stock. Looked really cool on the Saiga 308 conversion I did for a guy recently.

I was thinking of going under folder for my next Draco, but that looks awesome!
