I have thought about this as the AKSU is probably my favourite rifle...you would have to re-model the front end of an AK102 (5.56) and stick a fake PBS4 moderator over the barrel. But I reckon it could be done given the willpower (and the money).

Although not a milsurp, or a actual firearm (but still interesting)
this is my new custom built Replica vickers machine gun.
This "scale model" has been fitted with a propane/oxygen gas system to simulate the sound of firing.

This is me at a local history fair a few weeks ago where i was representing my local regiment's role in the great war. I took along my Great war collection for use in a firing display.
The rifles in the background of the picture are:
1901 LSA magazine lee enfield
1916 LSA SMLE MkIII
1966 Ishapore 2A1 (pretending to be a MkIII*)
Remington P14
1915 Amberg G98

Now that looks interesting, do you have any footage of the 'Vickers' in action?

Well deserved .... Planning to finish with a little AKSU 5.45x39 next ?? ;)
It would be nice but lack of barrel length and 5.45 ammo would be a problem :bad: , a full length SVD would compliment the SVDS nicely though as would an SVU :good:
Today at Bisley roaming at AmmoZone stand on Phoenix Arm Fair,I come across bag of 20 5.45x39 for 6£... :run:

Recently I've had another MAS36 put onto my FAC, this actually belongs to Poll of this parish until he gets his FAC in order, that is if I give it back to him!, it's a very nice all matching example in good shooting order, L series in the 8,000 SN range, meaning it was made not long after MAS re-opened.

Now for the 2 MAS36s together!

The thread is a year old, but worth adding to and another peice to my WW1 collection. This one is my French Lebel 1886/M93.
This one hasnt got the balle N conversion which is nice, so can use .323 bullets.
Look forward to shooting this one.

Essentially a Mk. III action (1910) with Mk. III* furniture. Have not had a chance to study all of the marks as yet. I fitted the magazine cut off for no other reason than I wanted to!
