I just finished putting it together after a bath in the shop's parts tank today. I recieved it from Classic Arms Inc. yesterday. I did an initial inspection and was pretty happy, no scratches or dented wood. The stock and fore grips are not finished, but don't look like they were just cut with a chainsaw either. It has a Tapco compensator and the weird thing is the slash is either to the right or left of centerline of the barrel because of the two index grooves cut in it. The spring loaded pin in the sight indexes it. Does anyone know if there is any problem with this arrangement. The barrel in nice and shiny with no pits or dark spots. After a good cleaning (all day soaking in the tank) I noticed a few small things. The gas piston is an good shape but the tube had some rust in it, I don't think it will cause any issues as the piston slides free in the tube. The bolt carrier had some some scratches/high spots which took a little work with my die grinder/polishing pad and some emery paper. It came with the Tapco G2 trigger group and the bolt does hang up on the hammer, but really only when I don't let the bolt slam forward, it should get better as time goes on. I wasn't able to get the bolt apart to clean the firing pin and bore, and extractor. Any help on this would be appreciated. Its as clean as a half a can of non-cloronated brake cleaner can get it. I'm off to the range Saturday. By the way Classic Arms Inc. is a good bunch of people, I called there to get the tracking number and talked to Jan. She was multi-tasking like crazy but was polite and still helped me out.
