I was wondering if LCT AKs can take real AK parts? I was planning on buying a LCT AIMS and converting it to a MPi-KMS-72 for my East German Loadout.

 

Thanks!

Some RS muzzle devices (flash hiders, iirc) come under firearms certificates. Be careful what you import ;)

Not strictly true, under UK law it tends to be the gas bearing parts of a firearm that are restricted not the furniture.  So things like gas blocks and bolts/bolt faces.  The exception to this is strangely enough deactivated firearms.  You can import a bipod from a Bren for instance but you aren't allowed to modify a deac to be an airsoft gun.  Very strange.

Firstly, try this guide http://www.operationeastwind.com/forum/index.php?topic=2707.0

 

Secondly, get yourself registered on the WARPAC Cold War Airsoft FB page.  I am the Admin on there and semi organise the WARPAC side of things for attendance at the Guman Filmsim Cold War games - which are excellent.  Any q's ask.

I agree except flash hiders are actually restricted where compensators and thread protectors are not . I've found it's down to the wording on the paperwork usually . AKs don't generally have flash hiders so no issues there anyway as most are compensators or muzzle breaks

Yeah as above, it's usually just pressure bearing parts, but anything designed to suppress noise OR flash is considered worthy of being restricted.
