Not saying this is what happened but I have seen detent springs get pinched while installing the grip and get "straightened" and reused and have so much tension you could barely move the selector.
The AK problem was self-induced... THE MORNING of class, which is the worst time to start fucking with things, the owner tried to bend the safety lever so it would not bind so hard on the receiver... the spring that holds the FCG never was reinstalled properly... as far as I remember... so in this case, we CAN NOT blame the AK or platform for the problem.
I know for a fact he started the class with it that way... if any of you guys helped him change it later, I was unaware.
Dude should have talked to jafar. He squared outlaws safety away in minutes...
I told him "I know a guy in Thomasville..."Quote:

Its like a rule.
30 minutes one way... he was a young kid... great kid... just getting started and learning like all of us had to at one time or another. I told him he had some choices... go get the AK fixed, go buy some .223 and use one of my AR15's, or see if the AK makes it...Quote:

My advice is, bite the bullet buy the Krebs and lock plate and never look back. It was an amazing change on mine, I would never have believed the difference if I hadn't seen it first hand.
Having taken Bob's AR class before, I highly recommend it. If I didn't have a previous commitment I would have joined you bastards.
