    Best blued AK?

    Hello everyone, I'm on the hunt for an old style blued AK, like the Norincos. However, the Norincos, like the milled Polytechs and the stamped 56's, are very expensive. If I have to, i might be willing to save up and jump the gun on a Polytech. They are beautiful and exactly what I'm looking...

    Questions about this Sistema's finish?

    Hello everyone, I found this Sistema Colt listed on a site. It claims the gun is blued but the bluing looks different from other Sistemas i've seen. Is it really blued? Is the finish original? Would the Colt Custom Shop refinish it? I don't know if they'd count it as a Colt gun or not. The...

    Cimarron 1911 (blued and chromed) quality questions

    Hello everyone, Ray here, once again. Sorry for creating a new thread, but the last one's topic rather got buried and I figured this one would be more effective and organized, if that makes any sense. I made this thread in the hopes of having some questions answered and doubts put to...
