So who here, from the old days...

I still peek in at least a few times per week. But ever since the ban, I started collecting other AK's and of course whatever pawn shop Saiga's I can find. -
What were you doing on 9/11/01?

I was driving my newborn daughter to McAllen for a doctor's visit. First heard about something happening when I parked the car and noticed people freaking out I walked into the building and saw the 2nd plane hit live. -
All alone in here?

Undecided. But glad it's back up. -
I use CIP gauges.

Nice rifle. I picked up a similar rifle at a pawn shop in vg condition. Out of paranoia, I decided to upgrade the bolt on mine after acquiring a set of headspace gauges. Mine would not close on "go". While some think thats great, at least it closes on a live round, I wasnt thrilled about it. Too tight a headspace can lead to an overpressure condition, which can lead to other issues. I could be wrong, but that may be the reason why so many people are claiming premature wear of their rifles. I was able to acquire an original 1960's Polish milled bolt and it headspaced perfectly. I shoot it

Pics please.

Ok. Finally shot it. No explosions and the bullets went exactly where they were supposed to go. I was careful though. I sandbagged the rifle and reached around a piece of plywood between me and the rifle in the event that it went kaboom. Anyway, before going out the ranch a surplus 1960 Polish milled bolt in the white that I was able to locate on gunbroker finally arrived. Since I had all my gauges with me, I decided what the heck, let me check...and guess what PERFECT FIT. Closes on GO with only a few pounds of force and doesn't budge at all on the NO GO. So I took both with me and tr -

Yes, headspace was performed on fully stripped bolt. WBP is an AK manufacturer in Rogow, Poland. Not sure exactly what WBP stands for. Weapons Built in Poland??? -

Just a brief update. Been shooting the rifle and still no issues. However, after reading on all the drama surrounding the bolt and headspace on these rifles,I decided to invest on a WBP replacement bolt and a set of cip gauges. I noticed some rather interesting things. First, the rifle will not close on a "go" gauge using the original bolt. Hmmm....ok. secondly, the replacement bolt was too large so I had to adjust it to fit. 9 hours later, she finally closed on "go" with pressure. It's nowhere near closing on the "no go" so all is right. I now have a replacement bolt if necessary. -
Finally bought a Glock - one question

As usual, lots of misinformation out there. Typical liberals taking advantage of a situation, and typical republicans also. I'm not sure what the hell to do about these sort of things because nobody sure as hell gives a rat ass about the larger number of murdered kids in shitcago over the weekend. It's pure liberal reporting and hysterical hypocrisy. All I know is banning all firearms hasn't stopped more than 60,000 murders in Mexico since 2010, nor put a dent on inner city crime all over liberal controlled parts of the country. -
Ive also got a 556 and an adapter, but i never bothered to install. I run it with surefire mags.

I'm not really interested in threading this one. I like how compact the whole setup is. I might however add an ak gastube so I can run a midwest industries quad rail on it and add a foregrip and light.

https:// I kept this one simple and light.

I guess I never told you guys, but I ended up getting that rifle for a little over $400. Converted it quickly. Ill post pics later.

Did someone superglue the liberals to their chairs? They cant seem to stand.

Just peeked at it in the safe. Still intact! But seriously, I don't shoot that often anymore due to work and family. If it really starts to concern me, I'll sell it. Really sad though....I wanted something replaceable to shoot instead of my Saigas. Something US made. But I guess the US has yet to figure out the AK. -

Yep. Definitely gotta keep an eye on it. Haven't had the opportunity to shoot much lately, but I am keeping a round count since I purchased it. At this rate, I'LL reach 1500 in about 40 years! -

Mixed...your conclusion makes sense. On another note, I decided to cover the finish wear with a sharpie to observe wear firsthand since the bolt already had the wear showing when I acquired it. I'm curious to see how many rounds it will take to start showing the same wear again. Also. I had a friend of mine with extensive manufacturing and fabrication experience look at the step on the bolt and he thinks it may not have formed, but was actually built into the bolt at the time of manufacture to facilitate bolt to receiver lug engagement. But since I've never seen a virgin bolt, I can't veri
