So Ive had my AK for almost over a year now, and Ive grown tired of the Parkerized finish so Im debating on having it Cerakoted Socom Blue (I liked a blued finish look), or Painted by a AK Gunsmith (Tac47) (their process is sandblast, paint and bake, they admitted it wasnt anywhere near as strong as Cerakote but held up on their guns pretty well, and showed me a few examples). Also I got a rail as a gift and a free cheap (think he bought it new for $30) red dot my friend was going to throw away so I bolted that up to the gun and zero'd it in. Shoots fine at 50 and 100yd, but I wanted something that had a choice of reticle's. So im thinking about purchasing a Sightmark http://www.sightmark.com/products/reflex-sights/ultra-shot-pro-spec-nv-qd-sm14002 (keep in mind im not looking for some fancy bad ass Aimpoint) from a friend for $70. Lastly this almost sounds ricerish but Im kinda wanting to polish the bolt carrier, ive always liked the look on the old PolyTech AK's. Suggestions, Criticism welcome.
