And here's mine:

I've just managed to source a ribbed receiver top cover from Poland which I think will make it look "proper", now all I want is a flash eliminator with bayonet lugs and I'm set. I wonder why Rusmilitary list them as "not for sale in UK" I see plenty of AK's about with with bayonet lugs - indeed the AKM's that Rusmilitary advertise are shown with bayonet lugs (the SVD's are shown both with and without)?

It's not the bayonet lug thats the problem it's the flash hider as apparently muzzle brakes can be sold in the UK but not flash hiders.I wanted to purchase the long PKM flash hider that Oleg sells as it is virtually identical to the flash hider used on the AKM when a 1pn34 night vision scope is fitted but was told I couldn't order it as I'm in the UK......which is a bit strange as both the Dragunovs have got flash hiders already!.....we have some strange laws.

Yes, spot on
