BEFORE PURCHASING PLEASE TAKE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION INTO CONSIDERATION:
We Strongly Recommend a Competent Smith with Advanced Knowledge & Experience with AKs perform the conversion. Seriously, we can not stress this enough!
- This is NOT a drop in DIY conversion. Requires skilled fitting and advanced knowledge of building AKs.
- These conversions are Semi-Permanent and dedicated. Part of why they are reliable. Not for quick install and temporary-use. They are NOT adapters.
- We recommend using a smith with lots of AK experience who is competent in machine/metal work.
- ALL MAGWELL KITS AND PARTS SALES ARE FINAL! For obvious reasons, all magwell kits and component sales are final. We will not allow returns. We have thoroughly checked that every piece leaving here is in spec. Should you run into an issue, replacement parts are available for purchase. Free replacements will be issued at our sole discretion. However, under no circumstances will we refund these components after receipt by end user.
- Definitive Arms LLC will NOT install these kits sold through our site. We already offer this as a direct service, we’ve been back ordered a long time. This is an opportunity for other smiths to do these conversions without waiting on us for the labor. The AK community has asked for this for the better part of a decade. We listened, here is your chance. However, we are very firm on the fact we WILL NOT install these kits. We already offer a full conversion service in house, including the parts (when we’re openly taking orders), and the magwells are marked differently to differentiate that they were installed by Definitive Arms. These kits are marked to ID them as end user conversion kits. This is so end users can identify in house conversion or end user conversions when purchasing AKs equipped with our system on the second hand market. This is the only way we can guarantee and differentiate the quality of conversions performed by us, as we have no way of guaranteeing conversions performed by other smiths/end users. In Short: THESE ARE FOR YOUR SMITH TO INSTALL. WE WILL NOT INSTALL THESE KITS.
- NOTE: We can not and will not recommend or certify others work involving our conversion system. Choose a competent smith based on your experience. Definitive Arms will NOT assume any responsibility or liability for a negative outcome associated with you or your smith attempting to install these kits.
