I wanted this to be my first AK. I learned about them on a thread here last week, did my research on them and called yesterday to place my order. The lady at classic arms told me they are sold out and "won't be doing them anymore because they're too
Much work". Just my luck.....

That sucks. Why don't they just raise the price to what they need to make on them It makes me think they sold slower than they wanted them to or something.

Iraq?? Lol. I had a guy that was intrested in chroming my rpk. He had a shop that chromed car parts and has done a couple ar's that way. Looked sharp. When om done with my chromies i will pm you how does that sound? Btw your not going to get alot of sympathy on this fourm. The guys around here like original plain jane black ak's. After seeing millions of nlack ak's its refreshing to mix it up and take the chrome out of the case

Bullshit. I hate tapco'd AKs but LOVE chrome AKs. There aren't many things more beautiful than a chromed out AK with red tinted furniture.

would look nice with black furniture but that red is eye catching for sure

I told you if you wanted one like mine you need to build it yourself or find it in Iraq.  Mine has had the metal all polished and tehn nickeled...no chrome.  The Classic Arms rifles are chromed and not polished prior to being chromed.  I figured you knew of those and wanted one that's shiny.

Unfortunately, even if I wanted to, I couldn't sell you mine because it's in an evil configuration that your state doesn't allow.

Lol you're right I DO live in a communist state. I found a couple gun shops online that offer chrominance/nickel plating but they want about $1,000 to do so. Anyone know who classic arms used to do this so cheap? I refuse  to sleep or pay taxes until I have a shiny AK god damnit..

Make sure that you get hard chrome, not decorative chrome.

maybe I'll keep mine then....  It's got some tapco furniture on it.  I bought it before I knew any better but in all fairness, it's not as bad as all I've read on it.

Didn't intend to imply that.  I offered up the link as an affordable plating service.
