I had a unit approach me about spiffing up some A2s that were being used for funeral detail. I think they turned out pretty nice.

I agree, they look great!

What did you do?

I completely disassembled them cleaned and degreased with dry cleaning solvent. I then heated the parts with a heat gun and sprayed them with solid film lubricant. Reassembled with new buttstock, pistol grip and handguards.

5pins, what solid film lubricant did you use? Looking at Cerakote's Micro Slick Dry Film Coating but I dont know if it's any good.
