Yo Dawg:  Welcome aboard.  I do not believe the Soviets ever stocked the SVTs in a Druganov style stock.  The SVTs were/are old style semi-auto configurations and I just don't think they can fit the Druganov stock however, don't let that deter you.  I have toyed with the idea of doing the same thing you are thinking of but with a Swedish AG-42b in 6.5 Swede.  I had thought of obtaining another stock and working that into a Druganov style.  My idea was to take just that part of the stock the action sits in and build it up from there with a Druganov style rear stock, a AK grip and a totally free floated bbl and a short forend.  It's just a matter of my getting around to it, but you know how it is with 'rount tu its'.......

Yes I agree they did not I am hoping to find some thing close, I know there is after market stocks of this style for the SKS , so I am hoping to find one for this baby... It has a longer action, and a simular mag,  like the dragon I believe the Dragon was taken from this or a simular action ... but is not identical..
 well good ideas maybe this is my answer we'll see... cheers

Ummm, the Druganov action is similar to the Kalashnikov (AK) in appearance but larger in size and internally designed more like the RPK, the Soviet squad machinegun.  I do not doubt you could probably work something out.  Good luck.
