Nice pictures and descriptions, Phil. Thanks! I have been contemplating a similar build on my MAK-90, so your posting is a nice roadmap.

I've replaced the furniture on my NHM-90, and it was pretty easy. It involved replacing the original thumbhole stock with a Dragunov style synthetic one, so the process was slightly more complicated because it effectively means replacing the grip at the same time as the stock. I definitely like the feel of the rifle much better with the new stock (it looks cooler too).

I recommend the Choate stocks for the MAK90 -- mine had a hard time accepting the First Samco furniture.

Really Good Read
Changeing the furniture on an AK or SKS is not a difficult task. But if you never done it before this is great info. This is my AK that I changed over. With the adjustable stock and my short arms, I can get a much better grip.

Where's best to aquire the Choate stuff Phil? - ATI gear seems stocked everywhere but the Choate (which I prefer generally) is not seemingly so findable.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ben - I just had to tinker  That pic of yours was a large file and way too dark so - enhanced it and shrunk it too - now I can see the beast  Nice job - here is the improved pic.

Thanks Chris. It did not look too dark on the camera but on the post, dark rifle against dark background, it did not come out like I wanted it too.
