Get the rust out with penetrating oil and a bronze brush, clean with some powder solvent to make sure nothing is trapped in/under the fouling, clean it WELL with patches wet with water, dry it completely beyond any doubt, and apply a good protectant like CLP or the like.

The gas system is set up for ~150gr military ammo. The suppressor will increase back pressure to the gas system and make the heavy loads do even more damage to the rifle than if they were unsuppressed. If I were you, I'd be careful even shooting 150gr milsurp suppressed. Might want to start...

Nope. Also, make sure there aren't any markings on the box indicating that it contains a firearm. Happy to help :)

He can ship them directly to an FFL in OR. He doesn't need to involve a CT FFL unless he wants to. The way it normally works is the FFL will send a signed copy of their license (fax, mail, etc.) to the seller and the seller will then ship the firearm to the address on the license via UPS, USPS...

I've found 10-14gr of Unique to work well with 200gr gas-checked.

A toggle action would probably be pretty tough to manipulate on an AR when compared to a .22lr, seeing as you need to deal with the rotary bolt and whatnot.

I have an Accumounts scope and mount, it's high quality. I like it.

5.45 brass can be made by FL sizing and then trimming .222 Rem brass, bullets are available from MidwayUSA and surprisingly cheap. Lee and RCBS make custom 5.45 dies, but they're pricey.

Harris bipods are all made in the US and are good equipment.

Those actually got included in CT's recent ban as a specifically named "assault weapon", so we can't even have them here anymore.

redstategunnut, what kind of FH/comp is that? Also, one more question, why are Chinese hammers orange? Nice MAK, tnxdshooter. It looks great!

1:9 twist, I would bet on 55gr shooting the best. The heavier weights (69gr, 72gr) most often shoot well in 1:7.

They do make one in 54r, actually. All I've seen around are real. All of the ex-Soviet combat optics are tough and pretty high quality, but sit very high over the bore. They're also a bit heavy.

Beryl stocks attach to standard AKM rear trunnions with no modification necessary.
