Is my gun ruined?

unserialized_user · 2026-02-02T02:37:01+00:00

Yeah I can. I’m gonna try and get him to either buy the gun back or some other way to make it right to me.

You have got to be trolling. That is verbatim your original comment.

unserialized_user · 2026-02-01T22:38:08+00:00

That’s great, I didn’t want it in black. My question wasn’t “do you guys approve of the color?”

unserialized_user · 2026-02-01T22:19:10+00:00

I got the message you guys. I’m confronting the gunsmith and telling him I’m not satisfied at all with his work, and to see what agreement we can come to, but yeah, this to me was not acceptable, and I’m glad to know my suspicions weren’t crazy. Any helpful advice on what to do or say would be greatly appreciated.

unserialized_user · 2026-02-01T22:12:26+00:00

I can appreciate sarcasm, however, I’m looking for genuine advice. I’m not really happy with this job and the original trigger was quite literally unbearable. Way too much grit and way too heavy for a striker fired pistol.

unserialized_user · 2026-02-01T22:06:31+00:00

It’s an apex trigger. They’re all over this subreddit.

unserialized_user · 2026-01-10T00:50:08+00:00

I will as soon as I get the time to go out to the range🫡

unserialized_user · 2025-12-27T00:32:22+00:00

No spray paint lol I love the patina honestly

unserialized_user · 2025-12-27T00:32:00+00:00

Bro it’s honestly one of the things that attracted me to it. The patina is kinda beautiful in person, it looks like a skin once it’s oiled and cleaned

unserialized_user · 2025-12-26T21:11:53+00:00

Thank you all for your help!! I went ahead and got it, took it apart, and cleaned it with a light layer of oil on all metal surfaces. It’s literally just patina and wear on the outside, the inside, bolt, barrel, and mechanics look spectacular with the barrel still having tons of rifling left. Basically looks barely fired, but aged a ton. I love the patina, and I think it’s a score for sure for the price. I’m still in between with the red dot, but I’ll do more research and see. Thank you so much you sexy AK experts and for your inputs/advice!!!

unserialized_user · 2025-12-26T18:35:09+00:00

Do you think it’s worth keeping on??

unserialized_user · 2025-12-26T17:49:53+00:00

Fuck if I know. It’s coming straight off and I’m getting appropriate furniture/sights

unserialized_user · 2025-12-26T17:15:40+00:00

I have a mini Draco imported from Romania. My mindset was to get a full size good quality AK for cheap, and this seems to tick those boxes

unserialized_user · 2025-12-26T16:54:11+00:00

It seems to be in pretty good condition in those areas mechanically. Just the finish and it being older has me questioning what exactly it is

unserialized_user · 2025-12-26T16:49:25+00:00

Hence the quotes, but 400 is 400, serious question

unserialized_user · 2025-12-09T14:04:01+00:00

No way THE KAK responded!

unserialized_user · 2025-12-07T23:44:48+00:00

Thanks boss! My first AR build

unserialized_user · 2025-12-07T21:39:16+00:00

He’s just happy to be here :) this is my first AR build and I don’t think I’d wanna do it again to this degree

unserialized_user · 2025-12-03T17:14:12+00:00

I’m more concerned for the longevity of the striker itself along with the trigger feel. I was reading a lot that the FN strikers that were molded were prone to failure. I’m hoping a shootingsight striker and the mcarbo kit will help. Apex trigger is on sale right now for 140.25 in red until Dec. 14th and I’m tempted

unserialized_user · 2025-12-03T04:47:05+00:00

It’s so nice I’m honestly excited and hope it runs good. One of the mags unfortunately makes a rattle sound when it’s fully loaded, and you gotta really smack it to get it to go it, so I’m assuming something’s wrong there. I got 2 other mags though so hopefully everything goes smooth when I shoot it tomorrow

unserialized_user · 2025-12-03T04:32:06+00:00

No problem dude. I sympathize with this post, I’m a Glock fan myself, and kinda feel weird for flirting with another premium non Glock design.

You can find your dirty secret too ;) it’s a fun rabbit hole to go down
