Yes 2nd part, it also is case of "Nakal Me Akkal Nahi Hoti"....
it is basically this
> Trichy here = Type-3 pattern milled receiver AK, is given that Arsenal pattern buttstock adapter riveted on its rear end, that is compatible with AKS74 (or broadly speaking modern AK pattern) folding buttstocks
> FAB buttstock kit here, is also of same modern AK pattern folding buttstock type,
So it goes like this
<FAB buttstock + adapter>
[affixed on]<Arsenal's AK adapter>
{riveted on}<Trichy assault rifle>
^instead of these jugaad why the fuck they don't just adopt to something that's more universal for sake of commonality...
in our case, those AK-203 are going to be standard so it is wise to adopt to those modern AK pattern square bracket buttstocks keeping in future things in mind...just make cutout for same in rear end of the rifle and integrate that external riveted buttstock adapter directly inside the rifle like current gen AKs...then if needed just affix FAB one buttstock on it instead of this jugaadu kopy paste idea from Arsenal's AK
It's not that they are incapable of doing so, as
@Lonewarrior bhai shown in next post they did exact same mod on OFB R-2 i.e. putting current gen buttstock bracket/adapter in that milled receiver of R-2 so FAB buttstock goes directly in...so yeah...
Some more 'smart' things that could be done regd buttstock adapters is
=> AR buffer tube style adapters, so any AR pattern buttstock could be used
View attachment 126305
=> vertical Picatiny Rail in place of adapter,
View attachment 126304
a new thing but already getting traction,
SIG's NGSW-R patent too shown it in place of buttstock etc...
this way any picatiny compatible buttstock can be directly put on it
Another possibility, a very very jugaadu idea but still just in case...say, some genius from OFB successor got the idea of giving "ambi folding" buttstock ?! i mean a folding buttstock that could fold on either side
^if that's the case then...i dunno what else to say...
