According to the SFLU, the banned AK-47 "type" must meet three criteria to be considered a "type". I have a 74 I bought at a Waterbury gun show and was assured it was legal to own in CT.
1) Does it look like an AK-47? Yes, most definitely.
2) Does it function like an AK-47? Yes, most definitely.
3) Can AK-47 parts be swapped into it and function correctly? ??????
Anyone ever tried this? I'm not talking about trying to stuff a 7.62 into a 5.45mm chamber. I'm talking about IF the parts fit, would the 5.45 round still fire, extract and eject? I have an SKS and just compared the back of the 7.62 case to a 5.45mm one. Not really that much difference at all. Seems like the 47 extractor would still be long enough to get over the rim. Something to think about... Anyone know for sure? I'll have to try this with my 74 when I get back to my 47s left behind in a "free state".
And an SKS using detachable mags (AK ONES!!!) in 7.62 is perfectly legal in CT since it's not banned by name...yet... Again...
