I'm new to this board but not to ak's, having owned them since the mid-90's. I currently am modifying two saigas to return them to their respectful ak stature. I had one parkerized, however, I have been wondering what to do. I see a lot of guns finished with duplicolor and aluma-hyde, however, do they stand up to abuse. Are you painting because it is cheaper or just as reliable? I have tried brownells baking lacquer on mags, sand blasting and degreasing and baking but the paint still comes off where contact with the mag well occurs. Currently 35 of 36 mags are parkerized but I still wonder what to do with my remaining saiga and two russian m44 mosin nagants.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
