This process allows parts that would otherwise be added to the receiver separately to be integral to it i. In the case of AK-type rifles, said parts include the rails and rear trunnion. Steel can start as a casting, where the metal is poured into a mold with a general shape and allowed to cool. Sometimes vacuum pressure casting is used to help minimize porosity. The steel can also be forged, in which it is compressed to force out imperfections through the process of increasing the density of the molecules.

As with their stamped counterparts, milled receivers come in a wide variety of finishes. Steel Clues Although from a distance and to the untrained eye, stamped- and milled-receiver AKs may look very similar, there are several obvious differences between them.

To identify a milled receiver, the first thing to look for is a large, horizontal, rectangular inset, above or in front of the magazine well. Stamped receivers may or may not have dimples directly over the magazine well. These dimples act as a magazine guide and are usually over 0. Another indicator of a stamped receiver is the presence of several visible rivets where the rails and trunnion are riveted in place as opposed to machined into the receiver during the milling process.

Not for accuracy potential or anything like that, but definitely for sheer fun-factor and ease of cleaning. I wouldn't go so far as to say that either weapon is superior to the other, as they're apples and oranges Dakar said:. Click to expand Joined Dec 26, Messages 35, Likes 14, NES Life Member.

Feels less sloppy when you shoot. Other than that, meh. Chevy 2 65 NES Member. N-Pap weighs 8. Post reply. Insert quotes…. Share: Twitter Reddit Share Link.
