Any builders whether (home or shop) ever have that one annoying build? This is mine. Kit was sold to me by local shop Kilo Guns. Was told everything was there and ready to build. I paid under six for it. No received no barrel. Made my own barrel ordered the receiver. Start taking the parts out it’s all pieced together shit. Then I realized I had a virgin rear trunnion when was told it was milled out. Contacted them and they just acted tough on the phone hung on me. I let it ride because catching a case isn’t worth it if I can fix it. Lesson learned and ultimately it’s a roll of the dice with people I’ve come to realize. Anyways fast forward time (years) I was salty about it. Finally decided to re start it up. Jesus. Nothing fits. Bolt lugs were shaved off and I didn’t even realize that then until now when I went to headspace it. Sourced an M21 bolt hand fitted everything like HAND FITTED swamped out the piston because the star piston and original gas tube were not correct (again pieced together) anyways finally got it running and I’m happy but jesus I’ve never dealt with such a headache. I know I could’ve just purchased an M85 from ZastavaUSA but I had this already.

Anyways what are your guys horror stories when resurrecting one back to life?
