Wood is rarely chosen for its nice grain for making a gun. You are more likely to find a nice grain on replica parts as they are more for appearance.

Anything which relates to the gas parts, barrel or bolt of an AK47/74 is definitely section 5 and likely to warrant a visit from the police if you try and import it!
two_zero Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 ...illegal ....gas parts.... police .... As I understand only parts that are in direct contact with the shell/bullet (magazines excluded) are illegal to own without a license in the UK? Have I misunderstood?

Have I misunderstood? yes, you have misunderstood, any load bearing parts (which includes the whole gas system and some muzzle devices) are controlled, if they're for an automatic rifle they're section 5. two_zero 1

It's the wooden parts he wants, they should be fine. I linked the whole page rather than link each bit of wooden furniture separately.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted July 26, 2014 Supporters Posted July 26, 2014 I'm aware of that, I just wanted to highlight that just because you CAN order an AK47 bolt carrier... doesn't mean you should! Wooden parts are furniture and are 100% legal, regardless of what they've come off.
two_zero Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 yes, you have misunderstood, any load bearing parts (which includes the whole gas system and some muzzle devices) are controlled, if they're for an automatic rifle they're section 5. ah yes, I recognise that wording! Will have to try to figure out what exactly that means later. Pardon, I'm not an English native speaker, hence the misunderstanding. Thanks jcheeseright 1
