Why does everyone seem to want to complicate thing?
There is a raghead in Pakistan, sitting cross legged in a cave, next to an open fire, building AK's using nothing but rudimentary hand tools.
If he can do it...... Anyone with a plug outlet in thier wall can.

Hell if I know.... I was drunk.
Only way to do a paint job like that.

I got the Centari automotive paint in... So I had to make it "Pretty Ugly".
Looking a pics for a couple days, I've learned there is no rime or reason to Rhodesian rifles. Parts, slings, carry handles, paint..... LOL
Colors are nothing short of WOW! Distressing takes some of the edge off of the finished look, more better.
I stuffed the guts from a factory 10rd mag into a beat Bulgarian 74 mag. No real reason but looks.
Tis a done deal;
Yeah..... I know ..... stupid..... but......
It's different.

Only reason I ever bought a press was for bending flats. I never used it for pulling a barrel from a trunion ever.
I did eventually make a jig to hold the receiver with trunion installed so I could use the press to rebarrel. But for atleast 4 builds I used all thread to reinstall.

Augh..... Google "pokie rivet tool"
Go to harbor frieght and buy a 24" bolt cutter and grind the jaws to make a rivet crusher..... Simple, easy and will last you through all your builds.
removing the barrel from the trunion I use a ball joint puller. cheap tool for reinstalling the barrel is a piece of all thread, washers and nuts.

I got 3 - 10rd and 3 - 4rd mags. Both of my 410's sport wood stocks. My other 410 is a '94 dated factory Saiga woody.
Bunny guns they be, not gonna start hanging crap on them.
I will admitt .... I did think about making a section of rail to replace the rear sight, but then thought....... WHY?
-
Well, lot of shit going on here in NY right now.
Just wanted to post a pic of my New converted 410.
Why? As far as I'm concerned... It's gonna be business as usual here, I will not conform.
Chinese t-hole butt stock and a custom made forearm I made up from oak.

In today's current prices......... How much did we blow off out back today??????? LOL
-
I'm going out today...... Hell, having company over to help shoot some also.
I'm not hurting on ammo. I believe in stocking up when the deal is found, needed or not. I've been doing it for decades.
I'll never understand those that have to stop on the way to range to GET ammo....

Phil. I do like Moly coatings.... Results are great.
Only issue with me is the plastics, stocks, pistol grips.... things that can't handle a high heat bake.
-
Black oxide is OK. But why make the rails out of SS? Rail sets are cheap.
-
I don't go for the shake n bake.... LOL
I enjoy camo paint jobs.
the standard paints are all i go with. I do however have a compressor and paint guns also so...
You don't need to bake the Duracoat, it will air cure over night. I do the baking part to speed the cure so I can continue onto the next color in a camo pattern.
The instruction you get with the Duracoat are very good. How to mix, apply, finish.........
Thier Trustrip cleaner is EXCELLENT, I get a can with every order.
Whatever product you go with I can not express the need for the prep work enough. the better the prep the better the finish.Not just at the begining, but through out the project. Latex gloves are cheap.... Shooting the last color on a paint job that you got 40 hours into and seeing the paint smear on a oily fingerprint...... augh!

I guess the economy is bad for the coyotes also if thier taking to assaults and robberies.......
They weren't even armed....

Who is a reputable vendor to buy the stuff from?
Vendor??????????
Why middle man in?
Deal with the manufacturer;

I like Duracoat... I'm a fan of it. I've painted alot of it on everything. Duracoat is easy to apply.... easy. Air dry or bake it. I bake the parts in the kitchen oven, it doesn't stink like other finishes when baking.
When done correct it's hard and easy to clean/wipe down. The color white or any other doesnt get the grimy.
I can't express prep prep and prep before paint. Bead blast, sand blast, scuff it with a scotchbrite, the more prep you put into it the better the finish will come out. When you think it's clean enough to paint...... clean it again.

Same parts........ All made in China.
Oh look another beer.....
Reusing stock "sporter" trigger
in Saiga .308
Posted
Been done.... Flip the trigger guard around and see where it lines up to the mag catch and cut the trigger guard. Throw a bolt in the rear hole to hold the TG to the receiver and a couple tack welds. Clean it up.
