No way Luis... what kinda of drugs are they giving you???? Keep that original as possible. What makes this AK cool is the story.. yeah so what it sat inside a base and was carried by a contractor would never saw trigger time except at the range but it was there. Hell I wouldn't stain it or anything... The wear and tear are character marks, stories that are being told by the rifle. I would make sure it functions reliably as possible and would even consider taking it to an AK class to add some of my own story to it.

Agreed with Comp. Funny you say that. I was wanting to take my next carbine class with my Saiga but now I want to take it with this.

No staining. At most I’ll add beat up furniture for my own pleasure but keep this furniture set aside so I can revert it to original for whatever reason.

Luis, you’re loopy. Haha. Bastardization is what the Saiga is for. Now I have a bastard AK (fitting since it’s .223) and an AKM which will stay traditional.

Cleaned the inerds all up the other night. Bore and chamber look great after cleaning. Barrel wasn't dirty as I thought it was going to be (yay).
I didn't touch the outside and tried to leave as much fouling at the brake as I could.

If only we could get deals on the RPKs and PKMs the Triple Canopy guys used! The ones we did fam-fire with in Kuwait were sweet. Waited til they cooled off and worked the carbon buildup off with sand....those probably had the level of wear you were looking for

Sounds awesome!
There were some RPKs that were for sale at one point.
