PSA AK-47 looking for a bayonet

[FATAL125]

So May of last year I posted this...

Thread 'PSA AK-47 needs some new shoes' https://www.northwestfirearms.com/threads/psa-ak-47-needs-some-new-shoes.451143/

Now my same buddy, who won't just freakin' make an account here, has asked me to pose another question to you all.

He ended up going with one of the PSA wood furniture kits and absolutely loves it. Now he wants to put a bayonet on it. So the question is, does anyone now if this will work on a PSA?

I tried looking it up and got mixed commentary on whether or not the PSA even had a bayonet lug or not. Appreciate any info.

Some 100 MPH tape will solve that issue...

Has your buddy asked PSA if the rifle he ordered has a bayonet lug...?
Looking at the PSA site...looks like some do...some don't.

Wondering why your buddy here...can't / won't / ask or try to find answers to his questions...

Edit to add...
Does your buddy already have this kit....?
If so...post a picture of the barrel , near the muzzle...should be easy to see if it has a bayonet lug or not.

He has not asked them to my knowledge and yes it seems to be hit and miss if they have one.

I wonder the same thing with him sometimes. I think he's generally kinda lonely and so he reaches out for stuff like this just for interaction.

My guess, to the question of whether or not it'll fit, is more directed at is that the correct bayonet if he did have a lug. If that makes sense...

It does...and it is an important question...since there may be fitting issues with different makes and models.
You could have a good sized display with all the different types of AK47 bayonets.

I have one that looks like that. It's yugo, I think. It won't fit on my Romy rifles

Exactly. There are soooooo many. I wouldn't mind have that display. Hmmm... maybe a viable project since I can't build much else at the moment .

If running a bayonet do you need to keep the standard slant muzzle device?

Buy ammo. Don't get distracted. Just buy ammo all year.

AKs make my brain hurt. And not just when I shoot them...

I absolutely love the platform, but there is soooooo much one needs to know to be proficient in building, modifying, etc...

Thats a great idea! Ok, I'll do that.

Would a tiger cub be acceptable?

Yugos are their own pattern, just about any other com bloc bayo should fit.

I actually chuckled out loud to that. Not sure why it was so funny, but I enjoyed it.

Yeah I'll tell him to get on the horn with PSA and get it figured out.

Probably safer going with a Romanian one usually a bit cheaper than yugos as well

Glad I could help

 

[Unka-Boo]

If I was to guess, Romy bayo should fit...
