Repeat after me: "For all sporting and lawful purposes"

Do us a favor... CLP the exterior of the mags and repost pictures. NMHTG's look like crap when they're new because of the dry film they ship with. ALTHOUGH... that mag was definitely inserted into a gun, given the "shinyness" at the top of the mag.

My guess is that crimping the mouths won't work well at all, and may gouge the chamber if it gets hit just right. What you will need to make dummy rounds from fired brass (for a semiauto rifle) is a full length resizing die, a new bullet, a seating die, and a single stage press. Just pony...

We bought 4 Saiga 12's from them about 8 months ago. It took a few months for them to deliver, but the deal was kosher. I know that a former employee of JoeKen started Arms of America, but that doesn't make his company trash by association.

Run, don't walk.

There is no bayo lug because you can't attach a bayonet to the barrel anyway. You need more than a couple of inches of barrel past the FSB to attach a bayo.

You will likely not get sub MOA without the free-float, IMO. From what I hear (haven't shot this one yet)...for serious accuracy, get one of these:

I'm pretty sure that if you want to add anything to your .22, then you need to go with the 10/22.

Ditch the Butler Creek AND Midway barrels. Get an ER Shaw or a Green mountain if you can find one.

The AK's design and assembly methods do not lend itself to sub-MOA accuracy in any caliber. This only means that one has to work harder with fitting and machining to get the group sizes down. I think the accuracy in its design is limited by the barrel/trunnion engagement, receiver flex, and...

Your thinking is pretty much spot on. I'd try and pick up another AR similarly configured to the other one, and add magazines and a couple years' (or a couple of classes) worth of ammo. The Aimpoint and other optics will presumably be available at similar price levels to today. Even if...

Here's mine: Details of the conversion are HERE

I think you're overthinking it pretty seriously... I have a 16" carbine length sight radius gun, and I can pop 3" balloons while standing, unsupported at 50 yards very easily. I doubt I could do better with rifle length sights. You want to spend some money, just buy an aimpoint... then...

A .17HMR zeroed at 100 yards will drop 8.5 inches by the time it gets to 200. I'd say that 200 is about as far as you can take the .17. Due to crappy BCs of most 22WMR's, I'd say that the 22 is completely out of steam at 200.
