The furniture set shows some rub wear, carbon fouling from use, and some scratches/light compressions. The foam on the buffer is slightly torn on the top from the charging handle. Overall the furniture set is in Good+ condition.
Magazine Quantity & Condition: This pistol includes a 3d printed single shot sled, a 10 round metal magazine from Windham, and a 10 round Magpul pmag that looks like a 30 round mag with a bullet button stud added to it. The magazines are all in Very Good condition.
Type of Finish: FDE
Finish Originality: Original
Bore Condition: The bore is bright and the rifling is sharp. There is no erosion in the bore. The feed ramps are smooth and shiny showing some copper fouling. The muzzle device shows minor carbon fouling and some verdigris forming. In this writer’s opinion the bore rates 9/10.
Overall Condition: This pistol retains about 94% of its fde finish. The receiver shows some rub wear from the charging handle and a rub mark from the dust cover. There is also some minor rub wear in the mag well. The upper shows minor handling and some rub marks. The removable portion of the handguard shows carbon fouling and verdigris as does the top of the barrel and the piston components. The case deflector shows some marks as well. The markings are clear and the pins un-marred. This pistol is currently in Poor condition and will not function correctly due to having the wrong buffer and wrong buffer spring installed. The bolt will not cycle enough to pick up a round out of the magazine or cycle far enough to eject a non spent round. Once the buffer and spring are replaced with the correct components this pistol will rate in Very Good+ overall condition.
