Dboy RK03/AKS74 stock hinge fix
Just received a Dboy RK03/ AKS74 in a trade was playing with it in my man cave unfolded the stock and the hinge exploded. Is there any way to replace this hinge plate? I have not even had the chance to game this thing yet.

It's this exact reason I only buy Steel receiver AKs (EDIT: ALL STEEL built). The pot metal rear is a massive fail point on collapsible AKs.
If you're super handy with metal working, you could fill the rear flush and fabricate a rear trunnion for a fixed stock, but it would be cheaper just to buy a new receiver/AK.

Dboys is steel I believe?
Probably a poorer quality steel than LCT. Replace with an LCT from WGCshop would be my recommended course of action. |

Well if you are ambitious and dont care about how it looks you could just get a spare hinge from say a cabinet and use that as the new bracket. Depending on how much space there is inside the receiver, you could mount the round part of a hinge inside there to replace the broken part.
I did this for the stock of a TM AK47 with good success.

Difference in the two models are potmetal hinges instead of steel ones. And generally speaking potmetal upper sight block, gas block and front sight.

I can get a new steel receiver set from ken at 007 airsoft so I think that's what I will do. I am a welder fabricator so if worse comes to worse I will fix it myself.
